Let A be a \C-algebra with an action of a finite group G, let $\natural$ be a 2-cocycle on $G$ and consider the twisted crossed product $A \rtimes \C [G,\natural]$. We determine the Hochschild homology of $A \rtimes \C [G,\natural]$ for two…
We prove a warped product splitting theorem for manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded from below in the spirit of [Croke-Kleiner, \emph{Duke Math.\;J}.\;(1992)], but instead of asking that one boundary component is compact and mean-convex,…
We prove a discretized sum-product theorem for representations of Lie groups whose Jordan-H\"older decomposition does not contain the trivial representation. This expansion result is used to derive a product theorem in perfect Lie groups.
Inspired by a recent paper due to Jos\'{e} Luis Garc\'{i}a, we revisit the attempt of Daniel Simson to construct a counterexample to the pure semisimplicity conjecture. Using compactness, we show that the existence of such counterexample…
We develop a model characterizing all possible knots and links arising from recombination starting with a twist knot substrate, extending previous work of Buck and Flapan. We show that all knot or link products fall into three…
The \emph{sum-product phenomenon} predicts that a finite set $A$ in a ring $R$ should have either a large sumset $A+A$ or large product set $A \cdot A$ unless it is in some sense "close" to a finite subring of $R$. This phenomenon has been…
Nonuniqueness of semidirect decompositions of groups is an insufficiently studied question in contrast to direct decompositions. We obtain some results about semidirect decompositions for semidirect products with factors which are…
We study crossed products of arbitrary operator algebras by locally compact groups of completely isometric automorphisms. We develop an abstract theory that allows for generalizations of many of the fundamental results from the selfadjoint…
We use tilting modules to study the structure of the tensor product of two simple modules for the algebraic group $\SL_2$, in positive characteristic, obtaining a twisted tensor product theorem for its indecomposable direct summands.…
We introduce a definition of braided tensor product $\operatorname{M}\overline{\boxtimes}\operatorname{N}$ of von Neumann algebras equipped with an action of a quasi-triangular quantum group $\mathbb{G}$ (this includes the case when…
We present a systematic study of the structure of crossed products and fixed point algebras by compact group actions with the Rokhlin property on not necessarily unital C*-algebras. Our main technical result is the existence of an…
We review several techniques that twist an algebra's multiplicative structure. We first consider twists by an automorphism, also known as Zhang twists, and we relate them to 2-cocycle twists of certain bialgebras. We then outline the…
We give a new proof of the absence of non-trivial idempotents in the group ring of torsion-free cocompact lattices in SL(n,C). It is based on the following procedure. We lift the class of the trace in the cyclic cohomology of the group ring…
Let $\mathcal M=\langle M, <, +, \dots\rangle$ be an o-minimal expansion of an ordered group, and $P\subseteq M$ a dense set such that certain tameness conditions hold. We introduce the notion of a `product cone' in $\widetilde{\mathcal…
We equip the tensor algebra of a vector space $U$ over the real or complex field with an alternative product. The new product has the property that if we specialize it to the symmetric tensor algebra becomes the circle product introduced by…
We provide formulas for computing the discriminant of noncommutative algebras over central subalgebras in the case of Ore extensions and skew group extensions. The formulas follow from a more general result regarding the discriminants of…
A new highly symmetrical model of the compact Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}^c_2$ is provided as a twisted ring group for the group $\mathbb{Z}_2^3$ and the ring $\mathbb{R}\oplus\mathbb{R}$. The model is self-contained and can be used without…
We prove several new versions of Hilbert's basis theorem for non-associative Ore extensions, non-associative skew Laurent polynomial rings, non-associative skew power series rings, and non-associative skew Laurent series rings. For…
Let X be an infinite, compact, metrizable space of finite covering dimension and h a minimal homeomorphism of X. We prove that the crossed product of C(X) by h absorbs the Jiang-Su algebra tensorially and has finite nuclear dimension. As a…
The notion of quasicrossed product is introduced in the setting of G-graded quasialgebras, i.e., algebras endowed with a grading by a group G, satisfying a "quasiassociative" law. The equivalence between quasicrossed products and…
