Let $\Gamma$ be an $\widetilde A_2$ subgroup of $\PGL_3(\mathbb K)$, where $\mathbb K$ is a local field with residue field of order $q$. The module of coinvariants $C(\mathbb P^2_{\mathbb K},\mathbb Z)_{\Gamma}$ is shown to be finite, where…

Let $\Gamma$ be a torsion free lattice in $G = \PGL(n+1,\FF)$, where $n\ge 1$ and $\FF$ is a non-archimedean local field. Then $\Gamma$ acts on the Furstenberg boundary $G/P$, where $P$ is a minimal parabolic subgroup of $G$. The identity…

Let $\Gamma$ be a torsion free cocompact lattice in $\aut(\cl T_1)\times\aut(\cl T_2)$, where $\cl T_1$, $\cl T_2$ are trees whose vertices all have degree at least three. The group $H_2(\Gamma, \bb Z)$ is determined explicitly in terms of…

Let $\Gamma$ be a torsion free lattice in $G=\PGL(3,{{\mathbb F}})$ where ${{\mathbb F}}$ is a nonarchimedean local field. Then $\Gamma$ acts freely on the affine Bruhat-Tits building ${\mathcal B}$ of $G$ and there is an induced action on…

If $\Gamma$ is a torsion free $\widetilde A_2$ group acting on an $\widetilde A_2$ building $\Delta$, and $\fk A_{\Gamma}$ is the associated boundary $C^*$-algebra, it is proved that $K_0(\fk A_\Gamma)\otimes \bb R \cong \bb R^{2\beta_2}$,…

Let $T_1$ and $T_2$ be homogeneous trees of even degree $\ge 4$. A BM group $\Gamma$ is a torsion free discrete subgroup of $\aut (T_1) \times \aut (T_2)$ which acts freely and transitively on the vertex set of $T_1 \times T_2$. This…

Let $X$ be a finite connected graph, each of whose vertices has degree at least three. The fundamental group $\Gamma$ of $X$ is a free group and acts on the universal covering tree $\Delta$ and on its boundary $\partial \Delta$, endowed…

Let k be a global field and let k_v be the completion of k with respect to v, a non-archimedean place of k. Let \mathbf{G} be a connected, simply-connected algebraic group over k, which is absolutely almost simple of k_v-rank 1. Let…

Let $\Gamma$ be a torsion-free arithmetic group acting on its associated global symmetric space $X$. Assume that $X$ is of non-compact type and let $\Gamma$ act on the geodesic boundary $\partial X$ of $X$. Via general constructions in…

Let $\G$ be a group of type rotating automorphisms of an affine building $\cB$ of type $\wt A_2$. If $\G$ acts freely on the vertices of $\cB$ with finitely many orbits, and if $\Omega$ is the (maximal) boundary of $\cB$, then…

The paper studies the $K$-theoretic invariants of the crossed product $C^{*}$-algebras associated with an important family of homeomorphisms of the tori $\Bbb{T}^{n}$ called {\em Furstenberg transformations}. Using the Pimsner-Voiculescu…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finitely generated group acting properly discontinuously by isometries on a visibility CAT(0) space $X$ that satisfies the bounded packing property. We prove that $\Gamma$ satisfies the Tits alternative: it is either…

Let $\Delta$ be a building of type $\widetilde A_2$ and order $q$, with maximal boundary $\Omega$. Let $\Gamma$ be a group of type preserving automorphisms of $\Delta$ which acts regularly on the chambers of $\Delta$. Then the crossed…

This is the second of two papers but has been written so as to have minimal dependence on the first paper (which is also on this archive). Let G be a group and let M be a CAT(0) proper metric space (e.g. a simply connected complete…

We compute the K-theory of a collection of C*-algebras, which we refer to as boundary C*-algebras, arising as the crossed product C*-algebras of lattice actions on the maximal Furstenberg boundaries of symmetric spaces of noncompact type.…

Suppose $G$ is a locally solid lattice group. It is known that there are non-equivalent classes of bounded homomorphisms on $G$ which have topological structures. In this paper, our attempt is to assign lattice structures on them. More…

We extend applications of Furstenberg boundary theory to the study of $C^*$-algebras associated to minimal actions $\Gamma\!\curvearrowright\! X$ of discrete groups $\Gamma$ on locally compact spaces $X$. We introduce boundary maps on…

We study the quotients of the Toeplitz C*-algebra of a quasi-lattice ordered group (G,P), which we view as crossed products by a partial actions of G on closed invariant subsets of a totally disconnected compact Hausdorff space, the Nica…

We introduce and study a generalization of the notion of the Furstenberg boundary of a discrete group $\Gamma$ to the setting of a general unitary representation $\pi: \Gamma \to B(\mathcal H_\pi)$. This space, which we call the…

Let G be a simple Lie group of real rank one, and S the ideal boundary of the corresponding symmetric space of noncompact type (H^n_R, H^n_C, H^n_H or H^2_O). We show the finiteness of the possible values of the secondary characteristic…
