We introduce and investigate a quantitative version of Steinhaus' property $(S)$ for Banach spaces, called the uniform property $(S)$. A Banach space $X$ is said to have uniform $(S)$ if for every pair of distinct unit vectors $x,y\in X$…

We prove that, for a free action $\alpha \colon G \curvearrowright X$ of a countably infinite discrete amenable group on a compact metric space, the small boundary property is implied by uniform property $\Gamma$ of the Cartan subalgebra…

We study profinite actions of residually finite groups in terms of weak containment. We show that two strongly ergodic profinite actions of a group are weakly equivalent if and only if they are isomorphic. This allows us to construct…

Let $A$ be an infinite-dimensional stably finite simple unital C*-algebra, let $G$ be a finite group, and let $\alpha\colon G\rightarrow \mathrm{Aut}(A)$ be an action of $G$ on $A$ which has the weak tracial Rokhlin property. We prove that…

A unitary representation of a, possibly infinite dimensional, Lie group $G$ is called semibounded if the corresponding operators $i\dd\pi(x)$ from the derived representation are uniformly bounded from above on some non-empty open subset of…

In math.RT/0302174 we developed a framework to study representations of groups of the form $G((t))$, where $G$ is an algebraic group over a local field $K$. The main feature of this theory is that natural representations of groups of this…

In recent years, there has been a considerable amount of interest in the stability of a finitely-generated group $\Gamma$ with respect to a sequence of groups $\left\{G_{n}\right\}_{n=1}^{\infty}$, equipped with bi-invariant metrics…

By constructing a new unitary representation we prove the universal group $U(F)^+$ of Burger--Mozes does not have the Howe--Moore property when $F$ is primitive but not $2$-transitive. It is well known $U(F)^+$ does have this property when…

Various aspects of the geometric setting of Algebraic Quantum Field Theory (AQFT) models related to representations of the Poincar\'e group can be studied for general Lie groups, whose Lie algebra contains an Euler element, i.e., ad h is…

Suppose $G$ is a locally solid lattice group. It is known that there are non-equivalent classes of bounded homomorphisms on $G$ which have topological structures. In this paper, our attempt is to assign lattice structures on them. More…

We establish vanishing results for limits of characters in various discrete groups, most notably irreducible lattices in higher rank semisimple Lie groups. As an application, we show that any sequence of finite-dimensional representations…

Let H and K be two finite groups with a properly outer action on the II_1 factor M. We prove that the group type inclusions $M^H \subset M \rtimes K$, studied earlier by Bisch and Haagerup, have property T in the sense of Popa if and only…

We exhibit an obstruction for groups with Relative Property (T) to act on the real line by bi-Lipschitz homeomorphisms. This condition is expressed in terms of the Lipschitz and Kazhdan constants associated to finite generating subsets. As…

We extend Gow's theorem on products of semisimple regular conjugacy classes to finite groups whose generalized Fitting subgroup is Z(G)S where S is a quasisimple group of Lie type in characteristic p and Z(G) has order prime to p.

For an essentially tame supercuspidal representation $\pi$ of a connected reductive $p$-adic group $G$, we establish two distinct and complementary sufficient conditions for the irreducible components of its restriction to a maximal compact…

The (Local) Lifting Property ((L)LP) is introduced by Kirchberg and deals with lifting completely positive maps. We give a characterization of the (L)LP in terms of lifting $\ast$-homomorphisms. We use it to prove that if $A$ and $B$ have…

We give a unified proof of property $R_\infty$ for the Higman groups $H_n$ ($n\ge 4$) and for their generalizations studied by Martin and Horbez--Huang. As a key step, we prove that the automorphism groups of these groups are acylindrically…

The major results of Barker $[3.],$ leading to the spherical Bochner theorem and its (spherical) extension, were made possible through the spherical transform theory of Trombi-Varadarajan $[14.]$ and were greatly controlled by the…

We study when the fiber product of groups with Property (T) has Property (T).

We first formulate a definition of tensor product for two modules for a vertex operator algebra in terms of a certain universal property and then we give a construction of tensor products. We prove the unital property of the adjoint module…
