We continue our study of when topological and measure-theoretic entropy agree for algebraic action of sofic groups. Specifically, we provide a new abstract method to prove that an algebraic action is strongly sofic. The method is based on…

We establish central limit theorems for an action of a group G on a hyperbolic space X with respect to the counting measure on a Cayley graph of G. Our techniques allow us to remove the usual assumptions of properness and smoothness of the…

We define the action of a locally compact group $G$ on a topological graph $E$. This action induces a natural action of $G$ on the $C^*$-correspondence ${\mathcal H}(E)$ and on the graph $C^*$-algebra $C^*(E)$. If the action is free and…

We consider reduced group $C^{\ast}$-algebras of finitely generated discrete groups metrized by seminorms obtained from word length functions. We study the metric dimensions of such $C^{\ast}$-algebras as defined by David Kerr. We also…

A compact quantum metric space is a unital $C^*$-algebra equipped with a Lip-norm. Let $\{(A_n, L_n)\}$ be a sequence of compact quantum metric spaces, and let $\phi_n:A_n\to A_{n+1}$ be a unital $^*$-homomorphism preserving Lipschitz…

We generalize some aspects of the theory of compact projections relative to a C*-algebra, to the setting of more general algebras. Our main result is that compact projections are the decreasing limits of `peak projections', and in the…

Let $(M,\omega)$ be a K\"ahler manifold and let $K$ be a compact group that acts on $M$ in a Hamiltonian fashion. We study the action of $K^\mathbb{C}$ on probability measures on $M$. First of all we identify an abstract setting for the…

A classical result by Effros connects the barycentric decomposition of a state on a C*-algebra to the disintegration of the GNS representation of the state with respect to an orthogonal measure on the state space of the C*-algebra. In this…

The paper introduces the class of O-metric spaces, a novel generalization of metric-type spaces, classifying almost all possible metric types into upward and downward O-metrics. We list some topologies arising from O-metrics and discuss…

Metric spaces are a fundamental component of mathematics and have a paramount importance as a framework for measuring distance. They can be found in many different branches of mathematics, such as analysis and topology. This paper offers an…

The inner geometry induced by the Bures distance function on the state space of a unital C*-algebra, or on parts of it, is considered in detail. As a key result the local dilation function is calculated at a state when the state argument is…

We construct ergodic actions of compact quantum groups on C^*-algebras and von Neumann algebras, and exhibit phenomena of such actions that are of a different nature from ergodic actions of compact Lie groups. In particular, we construct:…

This book offers to study locally compact groups from the point of view of appropriate metrics that can be defined on them, in other words to study "Infinite groups as geometric objects", as Gromov writes it in the title of a famous…

Let $ (X,d) $ be a metric space. We study a metric $ d_0 $ on $ X $ naturally derived from $ d $. If $ (X,d) $ is complete and locally compact, or if it is complete and $ (d_0)_0=d_0 $, then $ d_0 $ coincides with the length metric induced…

In this article, we define a generalisation of microlocal defect measures (also known as H-measures) to the setting of graded nilpotent Lie groups. This requires to develop the notions of homogeneous symbols and classical…

Based on the projective matrix spaces studied by B. Schwarz and A. Zaks, we study the notion of projective space associated to a C*-algebra A with a fixed projection p. The resulting space P(p) admits a rich geometrical structure as a…

The 'contracting boundary' of a proper geodesic metric space consists of equivalence classes of geodesic rays that behave like rays in a hyperbolic space. We introduce a geometrically relevant, quasi-isometry invariant topology on the…

In this paper, we give a characterization of compact sets in $L^p$-spaces on metric measure spaces, which is a generalization of the Kolmogorov-Riesz theorem. Using the criterion, we investigate the topological type of the space consisting…

We investigate quantum metrology using a Lie algebraic approach for a class of Hamiltonians, including local and nearest-neighbor interaction Hamiltonians. Using this Lie algebraic formulation, we identify and construct highly symmetric…

It is shown that the metric on the union of the sets $X$ and $Y$ defines a Hilbert $C^*$-module over the uniform Roe algebra of the space $X$ with a fixed metric $d_X$. A number of examples of such Hilbert $C^*$-modules are described.
