The Haagerup property, which is a strong converse of Kazhdan's property $(T)$, has translations and applications in various fields of mathematics such as representation theory, harmonic analysis, operator K-theory and so on. Moreover, this…

Let $G$ and $T$ be topological groups, $\alpha : T \to \Aut(G)$ a homomorphism defining a continuous action of $T$ on $G$ and $G^\sharp := G \rtimes_\alpha T$ the corresponding semidirect product group. In this paper we address several…

For the BGG category of $\mathfrak{q}(n)$-modules of half-integer weights, a Kazhdan-Lusztig conjecture \`a la Brundan is formulated in terms of categorical canonical basis of the $n$th tensor power of the natural representation of the…

In this paper, we introduce a notion of geometric Banach property (T) for metric spaces, which jointly generalizes Banach property (T) for groups and geometric property (T) for metric spaces. Our framework is achieved by Banach…

We prove several results of the following general form: automorphisms of (or actions of ${\mathbb{Z}}^d$ on) certain kinds of simple separable unital C*-algebras $A$ which have a suitable version of the Rokhlin property are generic among…

The purpose of this paper is twofold. We explore higher property T as an abstract group-theoretic property. In particular, we provide new operator-algebraic characterizations of higher property T. Then we turn to lattices in semisimple Lie…

We construct first examples of infinite groups having property (T) whose Kazhdan constants admit a lower bound independent of the choice of a finite generating set.

We introduce and study a generalization of the notion of the Furstenberg boundary of a discrete group $\Gamma$ to the setting of a general unitary representation $\pi: \Gamma \to B(\mathcal H_\pi)$. This space, which we call the…

We generalize a result of Hochman in two simultaneous directions: Instead of realizing an effectively closed $\mathbb{Z}^d$ action as a factor of a subaction of a $\mathbb{Z}^{d+2}$-SFT we realize an action of a finitely generated group…

Given a finite cocommutative Hopf algebra $A$ over a commutative regular ring $R$, the lattice of localising tensor ideals of the stable category of Gorenstein projective $A$-modules is described in terms of the corresponding lattices for…

Let $H$ be a proper subgroup of a discrete group $G$. We introduce a notion of relative inner amenability of $H$ in $G$, we prove some equivalent conditions and provide examples as well as counter-examples. We also discuss the corresponding…

Let $G$ be a reductive group over a local field $F$ of characteristic zero, Archimedean or not. Let $X$ be a $G$-space. In this paper we study the existence of generalized Whittaker quotients for the space of Schwartz functions on $X$,…

Let $(G,\theta)$ be a Banach--Lie group with involutive automorphism $\theta$, $\g = \fh \oplus \fq$ be the $\theta$-eigenspaces in the Lie algebra $\g$ of $G$, and $H = (G^\theta)_0$ be the identity component of its group of fixed points.…

This text takes, with more details and simplifying a proof in section 3, the parts of [Laf08] and [Laf09] treating p-adic groups. We prove that $SL_{3}$ over a non archimedian local field $F$ has strong Banach property (T). The applications…

This thesis is concerned with the mixed Tate property of reductive algebraic groups $G$, which in particular guarantees a Chow Kunneth property for the classifying space $BG$. Toward this goal, we first refine the construction of the…

We prove that cocompact (and more generally: undistorted) lattices on $\tilde{A}_2$-buildings satisfy Lafforgue's strong property (T), thus exhibiting the first examples that are not related to algebraic groups over local fields. Our…

For a free action $G \curvearrowright X$ of an amenable group on a compact metrizable space, we study the Uniform Rokhlin Property (URP) and the conjunction of Uniform Rokhlin Property and comparison (URPC). We give several equivalent…

Let $G= N\rtimes H$ be a locally compact group which is a semi-direct product of a closed normal subgroup $N$ and a closed subgroup $H.$ The Bohr compactification ${\rm Bohr}(G)$ and the profinite completion ${\rm Prof}(G)$ of $G$ are,…

This paper develops a categorical framework to clarify the relationship between the completeness and compactness theorems in classical first-order logic. Rather than claiming that different model constructions yield naturally isomorphic…

We construct explicit finite-dimensional orthogonal representations $\pi_N$ of $\operatorname{SL}_{N}(\mathbb{Z})$ for $N \in \{3,4\}$ all of whose invariant vectors are trivial, and such that $H^{N -…
