Bivariant (equivariant) K-theory is the standard setting for non-commutative topology. We may carry over various techniques from homotopy theory and homological algebra to this setting. Here we do this for some basic notions from…
There are two very natural products of compact matrix quantum groups: the tensor product $G\times H$ and the free product $G*H$. We define a number of further products interpolating these two. We focus more in detail to the case where $G$…
We construct a notion of derived completion which applies to homomorphisms of commutative S-algebras. We study the relationship of the construction with other constructions of completions, and prove various invariance properties. The…
We develop a new criterion to tell if a group $G$ has the maximal gap of $1/2$ in stable commutator length (scl). For amalgamated free products $G = A \star_C B$ we show that every element $g$ in the commutator subgroup of $G$ which does…
In this work, the continuously controlled assembly map in algebraic $K$-theory, as developed by Carlsson and Pedersen, is proved to be a split injection for groups $\Gamma$ that satisfy certain geometric conditions. The group $\Gamma$ is…
Let $X$ be an Abelian group of the form $X=\mathbb{R}^m\times K\times D$, where $m\geq 0$, $K$ is a compact totally disconnected group of the special form, $D$ is a discrete group. Let $\xi_i, i=1,2,...,n,n\geq 2,$ be independent random…
In ``A remark about the description of free products of groups'', Proc. Cambgridge Philos. Soc 62(1966), io ha studite lo que occurre in le circumstantia que un gruppo $G$ ha un subensemble $P$ tal que tote elemento de $G$ es representabile…
Given an ample groupoid, we construct a spectral sequence with groupoid homology with integer coefficients on the second sheet, converging to the K-groups of the (reduced) groupoid C*-algebra, provided the groupoid has torsion-free…
The Gersten conjecture is still an open problem of algebraic $K$-theory for mixed characteristic discrete valuation rings. In this paper, we establish non-unital algebraic $K$-theory which is modified to become an exact functor from the…
The free product of an arbitrary pair of finite hyperfinite von Neumann algebras is examined, and the result is determined to be the direct sum of a finite dimensional algebra and an interpolated free group factor $L(\freeF_r)$. The finite…
We first note that a result of Gowers on product-free sets in groups has an unexpected consequence: If k is the minimal degree of a representation of the finite group G, then for every subset B of G with $|B| > |G| / k^{1/3}$ we have B^3 =…
Let G denote either a special orthogonal group or a symplectic group defined over the complex numbers. We prove the following saturation result for G: given dominant weights \lambda^1, ..., \lambda^r such that the tensor product…
We use techniques from both real and complex algebraic geometry to study K-theoretic and related invariants of the algebra C(X) of continuous complex-valued functions on a compact Hausdorff topological space X. For example, we prove a…
We present a criterion for multiplicity-freeness of the decomposition of the restriction Res$^G_H(\rho_1 \otimes \rho_2)$ of the Kronecker product of two generic irreducible representations $\rho_1, \rho_2$ of a finite group $G$ with…
Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a locally bounded $k$-category and $G$ a torsion-free group of $k$-linear automorphisms of $\mathcal{A}$ acting freely on the objects of $\mathcal{A},$ and $F:\mathcal{A}\rightarrow \mathcal{B}$ is a Galois functor. We…
This is the first paper in a series. We develop a general deformation theory of objects in homotopy and derived categories of DG categories. Namely, for a DG module $E$ over a DG category we define four deformation functors $\Def ^{\h}(E)$,…
We consider the semi-direct products $G=\mathbb Z^2\rtimes GL_2(\mathbb Z), \mathbb Z^2\rtimes SL_2(\mathbb Z)$ and $\mathbb Z^2\rtimes\Gamma(2)$ (where $\Gamma(2)$ is the congruence subgroup of level 2). For each of them, we compute both…
In this paper, we show that the class of all properly 3-realizable groups is closed under amalgamated free products (and HNN-extensions) over finite groups. We recall that $G$ is said to be properly 3-realizable if there exists a compact…
We present some results on equivariant KK-theory in the context of tensor triangular geometry. More specifically, for G a finite group, we show that the spectrum of the tensor triangulated subcategory of KK^G generated by the tensor unit…
Every hyperbolic group acts continuously on its Gromov boundary. One can form the corresponding cross-product C*-algebra A. We show that there always exists a canonical Poincare duality map from the K-theory of A to the K-homology of A. We…
