We establish several new topological generation results for the quantum permutation groups $S^+_N$ and the quantum reflection groups $H^{s+}_N$. We use these results to show that these quantum groups admit sufficiently many "matrix models".…
We show that the discrete duals of the universal unitary quantum groups and orthogonal quantum groups have Kirchberg's factorization property when n is different from 3.
In this paper we characterize the finite permutation groups $F<S_d$ on $d$ letters such that every compact open subgroup of the associated universal group $U(F)<{\rm Aut} T_d$ is topologically finitely generated. Actually we show that in…
Associated to any closed subgroup $G\subset U_N^+$ is a family of toral subgroups $T_Q\subset G$, indexed by the unitary matrices $Q\in U_N$. The family $\{T_Q|Q\in U_N\}$ is expected to encode the main properties of $G$, and there are…
We prove that every free group G with infinitely many generators admits a Hausdorff group topology T with the following property: for every T-open neighbourhood U of the identity of G, each element g in G can be represented as a product…
Let A denote either the automorphism group of the free group of rank n>=4 or the mapping class group of an orientable surface of genus n>=12 with at most 1 boundary component, and let G be either the subgroup of IA-automorphisms or the…
Recently, Brannan and Vergnioux showed that the free orthogonal quantum group factors $\mathcal{L}\mathbb{F}O_M$ have Jung's strong 1-boundedness property, and hence are not isomorphic to free group factors. We prove an analogous result for…
We classify all subgroups of $SO(3)$ that are generated by two elements, each a rotation of finite order, about axes separated by an angle that is a rational multiple of $\pi$. In all cases we give a presentation of the subgroup. In most…
If $N \subset \R$ is a separable II$_1$-factor, the space $\Hom(N,\R)$ of unitary equivalence classes of unital *-homomorphisms $N \to \R$ is shown to have a surprisingly rich structure. If $N$ is not hyperfinite, $\Hom(N,\R)$ is an…
We prove that the normalized standard generators of the free orthogonal quantum group $O_N^+$ converge strongly to a free semicircular system as $N \to \infty$. Analogous results are obtained for the free unitary quantum groups, and some…
Associated to any compact quantum group $G\subset U_N^+$ is a canonical family of group dual subgroups $\widehat{\Gamma}_Q\subset G$, parametrized by unitaries $Q\in U_N$, playing the role of "maximal tori" for $G$. We present here a series…
Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a finite von Neumann algebra and $u_1,\dots,u_N$ be unitaries in $\mathcal{M}$. We show that $u_1,\dots,u_N$ freely generate $L(\mathbb{F}_N)$ if and only if $$\left\|\sum_{i=1}^N u_i \otimes (u_i^{\mathrm{op}})^* +…
We prove that every term of the lower central series and Johnson filtrations of the Torelli subgroups of the mapping class group and the automorphism group of a free group are finitely generated in a stable range. This was originally proved…
We study the complex of partial bases of a free group, which is an analogue for $\Aut(F_n)$ of the curve complex for the mapping class group. We prove that it is connected and simply connected, and we also prove that its quotient by the…
The goal of this paper is to establish fundamental properties of the Hochschild, topological Hochschild, and topological cyclic homologies of commutative, Noetherian rings, which are assumed only to be F-finite in the majority of our…
We combine classical methods of combinatorial group theory with the theory of small cancellations over relatively hyperbolic groups to construct finitely generated torsion-free groups that have only finitely many classes of conjugate…
We prove that for a number of ultrahomogeneous structures $M$, including those with the free amalgamation property, the powers of the automorphism group ${\rm{Aut}}(M)^n$, $n=1,2,\ldots$, and the group $L_0({\rm{ Aut}}(M))$ of measurable…
We show that every definable group G in an o-minimal structure is definably finitely generated. That is, G contains a finite subset that is not included in any proper definable subgroup. This provides another proof, and a generalization to…
We show that for any finitely generated group of matrices that is not virtually solvable, there is an integer m such that, given an arbitrary finite generating set for the group, one may find two elements a and b that are both products of…
We prove that every term of the lower central series and Johnson filtrations of the Torelli subgroups of the mapping class group and the automorphism group of a free group is finitely generated in a linear stable range. This was originally…
