In this work we examine the stability of some classes of integrals, and in particular with respect to homogenization. The prototypical case is the homogenization of quadratic energies with periodic coefficients perturbed by a term vanishing…

Let 2<n\leq l<m< \omega. Let L_n denote first order logic restricted to the first n variables. We show that the omitting types theorem fails dramatically for the n--variable fragments of first order logic with respect to clique guarded…

We develop a new method, based on non-vanishing of second cohomology groups, for proving the failure of lifting properties for full C$^*$-algebras of countable groups with (relative) property (T). We derive that the full C$^*$-algebras of…

This paper is devoted to local derivations on subalgebras on the algebra $S(M, \tau)$ of all $\tau$-measurable operators affiliated with a von Neumann algebra $M$ without abelian summands and with a faithful normal semi-finite trace $\tau.$…

We show that a simple separable unital nuclear nonelementary $C^*$-algebra whose tracial state space has a compact extreme boundary with finite covering dimension admits uniformly tracially large order zero maps from matrix algebras into…

In the past two decades, Sorin Popa's breakthrough deformation/rigidity theory has produced remarkable rigidity results for von Neumann algebras $M$ which can be deformed inside a larger algebra $\widetilde M \supseteq M$ by an action…

An operator $T$ acting on a Banach space $X$ is said to be super-recurrent if for each open subset $U$ of $X$, there exist $\lambda\in\mathbb{K}$ and $n\in \mathbb{N}$ such that $\lambda T^n(U)\cap U\neq\emptyset$. In this paper, we…

The dimension of any module over an algebra of affiliated operators ${\mathcal U}$ of a finite von Neumann algebra ${\mathcal A}$ is defined using a trace on ${\mathcal A}.$ All zero-dimensional ${\mathcal U}$-modules constitute the torsion…

We prove that for any euclidean ring R and n at least 6, Gamma=SL_n(R) has no unbounded quasi-homomorphisms. From Bavard's duality theorem, this means that the stable commutator length vanishes on Gamma. The result is particularly…

Let $\Gamma$ be a countable group and $(X, \Gamma)$ a compact topological dynamical system. We study the question of the existence of an intermediate $C^*$-subalgebra $\mathcal{A}$ $$C^{*}_{r}(\Gamma)<\mathcal{A}<C(X)\rtimes_r\Gamma,$$…

Motivated by a question of L. Robert, asking whether $\rm L(T(A)) = Lsc_{C}(T(A))$ for any separable C*-algebra A, we introduce and initiate the study of \emph{tracially reflexive C*-algebras}. We first prove that commutative C*-algebras…

We show that if $\Gamma\curvearrowright (X^\Gamma,\mu^\Gamma)$ is a Bernoulli action of an i.c.c. nonamenable group $\Gamma$ which is weakly amenable with Cowling-Haagerup constant $1$, and $\Lambda\curvearrowright(Y,\nu)$ is a free ergodic…

An operator algebra $\mathcal{A}$ acting on a Hilbert space is said to have the closability property if every densely defined linear transformation commuting with $\mathcal{A}$ is closable. In this paper we study the closability property of…

Let $\Gamma$ be a sub-semigroup of $G=GL(d,\mathbb R),$ $d>1.$ We assume that the action of $\Gamma$ on $\R^d$ is strongly irreducible and that $\Gamma$ contains a proximal and expanding element. We describe contraction properties of the…

Let $G/\Gamma$ be the quotient of a semisimple Lie group by an arithmetic lattice. We show that for reductive subgroups $H$ of $G$ that is large enough, the orbits of $H$ on $G/\Gamma$ intersect nontrivially with a fixed compact set. As a…

Let $\mathscr{M}$ be a $II_1$ factor acting on the Hilbert space $\mathscr{H}$, and $\mathscr{M}_{\textrm{aff}}$ be the Murray-von Neumann algebra of closed densely-defined operators affiliated with $\mathscr{M}$. Let $\tau$ denote the…

We study the rigidity in the sense of Zimmer for higher rank lattice actions on dendrites and show that: (1) if $\Gamma$ is a higher rank lattice and $X$ is a nondegenerate dendrite with no infinite order points, then any action of $\Gamma$…

Let $\mathcal M$ be a factor von Neumann algebra with separable predual and let $T\in \mathcal M$. We call $T$ an irreducible operator (relative to $\mathcal M$) if $W^*(T)$ is an irreducible subfactor of $\mathcal M$, i.e., $W^*(T)'\cap…

This paper focuses on the cohomology of operator algebras associated with the free semigroup generated by the set $\{z_{\alpha}\}_{\alpha\in\Lambda}$, with the left regular free semigroup algebra $\mathfrak{L}_{\Lambda}$ and the…

We prove geometric superrigidity for actions of cocompact lattices in semisimple Lie groups of higher rank on infinite dimensional Riemannian manifolds of nonpositive curvature and finite telescopic dimension.
