We introduce a new class of actions of the group $\G$ on finite von Neumann algebras and call them twisted Bernoulli shift actions. We classify these actions up to conjugacy and give an explicit description of their centralizers. We also…

We prove that Connes' Embedding Conjecture holds for the von Neumann algebras of sofic groups, that is sofic groups are hyperlinear. Hence we provide some new examples of hyperlinearity. We also show that the Determinant Conjecture holds…

This paper contains several results concerning circle action on almost-complex and smooth manifolds. More precisely, we show that, for an almost-complex manifold $M^{2mn}$(resp. a smooth manifold $N^{4mn}$), if there exists a partition…

We prove that if a finite group $G$ has a representation with fixity $f$, then it acts freely and homologically trivially on a finite CW-complex homotopy equivalent to a product of $f+1$ spheres. This shows, in particular, that every finite…

We construct a new version of the effective average action together with its flow equation. The construction entails in particular the consistency of fluctuation field and background field equations of motion, even for finite…

Let $G$ be a finite group of order $n$, and $Z_G=\mathbb{Z}\langle\zeta_{i,g}\mid g\in G,\ i=1,2,\dots,n\rangle$ be the free generic algebra, with canonical action of $G$ according to $(\zeta_{i,g})^x=\zeta_{i,x^{-1}g}$. It is proved that…

We prove that every infinite amenable group admits Bernoulli actions of any possible Krieger type, including type $II_\infty$ and type $III_0$. We obtain this result as a consequence of general results on the ergodicity and Krieger type of…

We provide the first known example of a finite group action on an oriented surface $T$ that is free, orientation-preserving, and does not extend to an arbitrary (in particular, possibly non-free) orientation-preserving action on any compact…

We give some natural conditions on actions of discrete countable groups on abelian locally compact groups of Lie type that imply factoriality of the group von Neumann algebras of their semidirect products. This allows us to give a fairly…

We discuss some aspects of the generalization of the Born-Infeld action to non-abelian gauge groups and show how the discrepancy between Tseytlin's symmetrized trace proposal and string theory can be corrected at order $F^6$. We also…

Given the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$, for a prime power $q$, in this paper we present a way of constructing spreads of $\mathbb{F}_{q}^{n}$. They will arise as orbits under the action of an Abelian non-cyclic group. First, we construct a…

We explore the existence of homomorphisms between outer automorphism groups of free groups Out(F_n) \to Out(F_m). We prove that if n > 8 is even and n \neq m \leq 2n, or n is odd and n \neq m \leq 2n - 2, then all such homomorphisms have…

In this note we give a new proof of the fact that an elementary subgroup (in the sense of first-order theory) of a non abelian free group $\mathbb{F}$ must be a free factor. The proof is based on definability of orbits of elements of under…

Given a free and proper action of a groupoid on a Fell bundle (over another groupoid), we give an equivalence between the semidirect-product and the generalized-fixed-point Fell bundles, generalizing an earlier result where the action was…

Let $\Gamma$ be a sofic group with a copy of $\mathbb{Z}$ in its center. We construct an uncountable family of pairwise nonisomorphic measure-preserving $\Gamma$ actions with completely positive entropy, none of which is a factor of a…

In this paper, we introduce the notions of upper metric mean dimension, $u$-upper metric mean dimension, $l$-upper metric mean dimension of free semigroup actions for non-compact sets via Carath\'{e}odory-Pesin structure. Firstly, the lower…

We study the free part of the Bernoulli action of $\mathbb{Z}^n$ for $n\geq 2$ and the Borel combinatorics of the associated Schreier graphs. We construct orthogonal decompositions of the spaces into marker sets with various additional…

We consider the action of a parabolic subgroup of the General Linear Group on a metabelian ideal. For those actions, we classify actions with finitely many orbits using methods from representation theory.

There are four groups $G$ fitting into a short exact sequence $ 1\rightarrow SL(2,5)\rightarrow G\rightarrow C_2\rightarrow 1, $ where $SL(2,5)$ is the special linear group of $(2\times 2)$-matrices with entries in the field of five…

We construct a minimal topological action $\wp$ of a non-amenable group on a Cantor set $C$, which is non-uniquely ergodic and furthermore there exist ergodic invariant measures $\mu_1$ and $\mu_2$ such that $(\wp,C,\mu_1)$ and…
