We introduce and study the class of groups graded by root systems. We prove that if {\Phi} is an irreducible classical root system of rank at least 2 and G is a group graded by {\Phi}, then under certain natural conditions on the grading,…
Kazhdan's property (T) has been studied for several discrete group-like structures, including standard invariants of Jones' subfactors and discrete quantum groups. We prove a Zuk-type spectral gap criterion for property (T) in this setting.…
We give simple examples of Kazhdan groups with infinite outer automorphism groups. This answers a question of Paulin, independently answered by Ollivier and Wise by completely different methods. As arithmetic lattices in (non-semisimple)…
We prove that $\operatorname{Aut}(F_n)$ has Kazhdan's property (T) for every $n \geqslant 6$. Together with a previous result of Kaluba, Nowak, and Ozawa, this gives the same statement for $n\geqslant 5$. We also provide explicit lower…
The aim of this partly expository paper is to present and discuss two classes of sets of integers (Jamison and Kazhdan sets) whose definition and/or properties are determined or inspired by operator-theoretical properties. Jamison sets…
We establish a lower bound on the spectral gap of the Laplace operator on special linear groups using conic optimisation. In particular, this provides a constructive (but computer assisted) proof that these groups have Kazhdan property (T).…
Kazhdan's notion of property T has recently been imported to the C$^*$-world by Bekka. Our objective is to extend a well known fact to this realm; we show that a nuclear C$^*$-algebra with property T is finite dimensional (for all intents…
We establish a general spectral gap theorem for actions of products of groups which may replace Kazhdan's property (T) in various situations. As a main application, we prove that a confined subgroup of an irreducible lattice in a higher…
We show that property (T) is not profinite, that is, we construct two finitely generated residually finite groups which have isomorphic profinite completions while one admits property (T) and the other does not. This settles a question…
D. Kazhdan has introduced in 1967 the Property (T) for local compact groups. In this article we prove that for $n\geq 3$ and $m \in \mathbb{N}$ the group $SL_n(\textbf{K})\ltimes \mathcal{M}_{n,m}(\textbf{K})$ is a Kazhdan group having the…
In this paper, we propose a property which is a natural generalization of Kazhdan's property $(T)$ and prove that many, but not all, groups with property $(T)$ also have this property. Let $\G$ be a finitely generated group. One definition…
In this article we improve the known Kazhdan constant for $SL_n(Z)$ with respect to the generating set of the elementary matrices. We prove that the Kazhdan constant is bounded from below by $[42\sqrt{n}+860]^{-1}$, which gives the exact…
We give a simple definition of property T for discrete quantum groups. We prove the basic expected properties: discrete quantum groups with property T are finitely generated and unimodular. Moreover we show that, for "I.C.C." discrete…
We compute lower bounds for Kazhdan constants of Chevalley groups over the integers, endowed with the standard Steinberg generators. For types other than $\mathtt{A}_{n}$, these are the first explicit asymptotically sharp such bounds. The…
We prove that every countably infinite group with Kazhdan's property (T) has cost 1, answering a well-known question of Gaboriau. It remains open if they have fixed price 1.
In a recent article, D. Kazhdan and A. Yom Din conjectured the validity of an asymptotic form of Schur's orthogonality for tempered irreducible unitary representations of semisimple groups defined over local fields. In the non-Archimedean…
For each countable group $Q$ we produce a short exact sequence $1\to N \to G \to Q\to 1$ where $G$ is f.g. and has a graphical $\frac16$ presentation and $N$ is f.g. and satisfies property $T$. As a consequence we produce a group $N$ with…
In this article, we consider tensor products of unitary representations by irreducible non-unitary finite dimensional representations of topological groups to define a property that is a twisting of Kazhdan's Property (T). We use the…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $\mathcal{U} (\mathbb{Z} G)$ the unit group of the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z} G$. We prove a unit theorem, namely a characterization of when $\mathcal{U}(\mathbb{Z}G)$ satisfies Kazhdan's property…
The aim of the article is to provide a characterization of Kazhdan's property (T) for locally compact, second countable pairs of groups $H\subset G$ in terms of actions on infinite, $\sigma$-finite measure spaces. It is inspired by the…
