We introduce a geometric invariant, called finite decomposition complexity (FDC), to study topological rigidity of manifolds. We prove for instance that if the fundamental group of a compact aspherical manifold M has FDC, and if N is…
We discuss the interplay between K-theoretical dynamics and the structure theory for certain C*-algebras arising from crossed products. For noncommutative C*-systems we present notions of minimality and topological transitivity in the…
We introduce a general notion of covering property, of which many classical definitions are particular instances. Notions of closure under various sorts of convergence, or, more generally, under taking kinds of accumulation points, are…
In this note, we show that the asymptotic dimension of any building is finite and equal to the asymptotic dimension of an apartment in that building.
The group of compactly supported homeomorphisms on a Tychonoff space can be topologized in a number of ways, including as a colimit of homeomorphism groups with a given compact support, or as a subgroup of the homeomorphism group of its…
We characterize the group property of being with infinite conjugacy classes (or icc, i.e. infinite and of which all conjugacy classes except {1} are infinite) for groups which are defined by an extension of groups. We give characterizations…
The goal of this paper is threefold. First, we describe the notion of dissociation for closed subgroups of the group of permutations on a countably infinite set and explain its numerous consequences on unitary representations…
In previous definition of $\mathrm{E}$-theory, separability of the $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras is needed either to construct the composition product or to prove the long exact sequences. Considering the latter, the potential failure of the long…
We construct explicit approximating nets for crossed products of C*-algebras by actions of discrete quantum groups. This implies that C*-algebraic approximation properties such as nuclearity, exactness or completely bounded approximation…
We give a complete characterization of connected Lie groups with the Approximation Property for groups (AP). To this end, we introduce a strengthening of property (T), that we call property (T*), which is a natural obstruction to the AP. In…
We show for a free action of a countable group $\Gamma$ on a finite-dimensional, compact metric space by homeomorphisms that the dynamic asymptotic dimension is either infinite or coincides with the asymptotic dimension of $\Gamma$.
We construct a finitely presented group with property (T) which can not act on on reasonable spaces. Such group is constructed using an generalization of Hall embedding theorem, where property (T) is added at the expense of weakening the…
We introduce asymptotically rigid mapping class groups of handlebodies and determine their finiteness properties, which vary depending on the space of ends of the underlying handlebody. As it turns out, in some cases, the homology of these…
In this paper, we introduce and study various kinds of decomposition complexity. First, we give a characterization of residually finite groups having finite decomposition complexity (FDC). Secondly, we introduce equi-variant straight FDC…
We prove that a set of finite perimeter is indecomposable if and only if it is, up to a choice of suitable representative, connected in the 1-fine topology. This gives a topological characterization of indecomposability which is new even in…
A set $\mathcal{A}\subset \mathbb{N}$ is called additively decomposable (resp. asymptotically additively decomposable) if there exist sets $\mathcal{B},\mathcal{C}\subset \mathbb{N}$ of cardinality at least two each such that…
We prove a decomposition theorem for orthocomplemented state property systems. More specifically we prove that an orthocomplemented state property system is isomorphic to the direct union of the non classical components of this state…
The thesis presents the subject of synthetic topology, especially with relation to metric spaces. A model of synthetic topology is a categorical model in which objects possess an intrinsic topology in a suitable sense, and all morphisms are…
We introduce the group-compact coarse structure on a Hausdorff topological group in the context of coarse structures on an abstract group which are compatible with the group operations. We develop asymptotic dimension theory for the…
We present a property satisfied by a large variety of complex continued fraction algorithms (the "finite building property") and use it to explore the structure of bijectivity domains for natural extensions of Gauss maps. Specifically, we…
