A special case of a conjecture raised by Forrest and Runde (Math. Zeit., 2005) asserts that the Fourier algebra of every non-abelian connected Lie group fails to be weakly amenable; this was aleady known to hold in the non-abelian compact…

A topological group $G$ is extremely amenable if every continuous action of $G$ on a compact space has a fixed point. Using the concentration of measure techniques developed by Gromov and Milman, we prove that the group of automorphisms of…

In this paper we shall give a short proof of the result originally obtained by Ashutosh Kumar that for each $A\subset \mathbb{R}$ there exists $B\subset A$ full in $A$ such that no distance between two distinct points from $B$ is rational.…

This paper studies the combinatorics of ideals which recently appeared in ergodicity results for analytic equivalence relations. The ideals have the following topological representation. There is a separable metrizable space $X$, a…

We show that every connected set $X$ which is irreducible between two points $a$ and $b$ embeds into the Hilbert cube in a way that $X\cup \{c\}$ is irreducible between $a$ and $b$ for every point $c$ in the closure of $X$. Also, a…

We answer a question of Piotr Minc by proving that there is no compact metrizable space whose set of components contains a unique topological copy of every metrizable compactification of a ray (i.e. a half-open interval) with an arc (i.e.…

We construct a C*-algebra that has only one irreducible representation up to unitary equivalence but is not isomorphic to the algebra of compact operators on any Hilbert space. This answers an old question of Naimark. Our construction uses…

Let M be a II_1 factor, A a masa in M and E the unique conditional expectation on A. Under some technical assumptions on the inclusion of A in M, which hold true for any semiregular masa of a separable factor, we show that for every…

We investigate whether an arbitrary non-zero $\mathbb{E}_\infty$-ring $A$ admits a reduced point, meaning an $\mathbb{E}_\infty$-map $A\to T$ such that $\pi_{\ast}T$ is a graded field. We show that if $2\in \pi_0A$ is not invertible, then…

A basic question concerning indecomposable Soergel bimodules is to understand their endomorphism rings. In characteristic zero all degree-zero endomorphisms are isomorphisms (a fact proved by Elias and the second author) which implies the…

We determine when a quasi-isometry between discrete spaces is at bounded distance from a bilipschitz map. From this we prove a geometric version of the Von Neumann conjecture on amenability. We also get some examples in geometric groups…

We say that a theory $T$ is intermediate under effective reducibility if the isomorphism problems among its computable models is neither hyperarithmetic nor on top under effective reducibility. We prove that if an infinitary sentence $T$ is…

It is shown that there exists a compact set $X$ in ${\mathbb C}^2$ with a nontrivial polynomial hull $\widehat X$ such that some point of $\widehat X \setminus X$ is a one-point Gleason part for $P(X)$. Furthermore, $X$ can chosen so that…

We give an example of a Morita algebra $A$ with a tilting module $T$ such that the algebra $End_A(T)$ has dominant dimension at least two but is not a Morita algebra. This provides a counterexample to a conjecture by Chen and Xi from…

We establish an uncountable amenable ergodic Roth theorem, in which the acting group is not assumed to be countable and the space need not be separable. This generalizes a previous result of Bergelson, McCutcheon and Zhang, and complements…

We present a counterexample related to relative uniform convergence, showing that, in general, the relatve uniform completion of the principal ideal of a vector lattice E generated by an element x is stricly contained in the ideal generated…

Let $A$ be a Banach algebra admitting a bounded approximate unit and satisfying property $\mathbb{B}$. Suppose $T: A \rightarrow X$ is a continuous linear map, where $X$ is an essential Banach $A$-bimodule. We prove that the following…

The deck, $\mathcal{D}(X)$, of a topological space $X$ is the set $\mathcal{D}(X)=\{[X \setminus \{x\}]\colon x \in X\}$, where $[Y]$ denotes the homeomorphism class of $Y$. A space $X$ is (topologically) reconstructible if whenever…

We continue the work of [1, 2, 3] by analyzing the equivalence relation of bi-embeddability on various classes of countable planes, most notably the class of countable non-Desarguesian projective planes. We use constructions of the second…

The main goal of this note is to prove the following theorem. If $A_n$ is a sequence of measurable sets in a $\sigma$-finite measure space $(X, \mathcal{A}, \mu)$ that covers $\mu$-a.e. $x \in X$ infinitely many times, then there exists a…
