Gromov's measure equivalence and rigidity of higher rank lattices.
We tackle R. V. Kadison’s similarity problem (i.e. any bounded representation of any unital C*-algebra is similar to a *-representation), paying attention to the class of C*-unitarisable groups (those groups G for which the full group C*-algebra C*(G) satisfies Kadison’s problem) and thereby we establish some stability results for Kadison’s problem. Namely, we prove that inherits the similarity problem from those of the C*-algebras A and B, provided B is also nuclear. Then we prove that G/Γ is...
We construct a precompact completely regular paratopological Abelian group G of size (2ω)+ such that all subsets of G of cardinality ≤ 2ω are closed. This shows that Protasov’s theorem on non-closed discrete subsets of precompact topological groups cannot be extended to paratopological groups. We also prove that the group reflection of the product of an arbitrary family of paratopological (even semitopological) groups is topologically isomorphic to the product of the group reflections of the factors,...
We prove that if some power of a space X is rectifiable, then is rectifiable. It follows that no power of the Sorgenfrey line is a topological group and this answers a question of Arhangel’skiĭ. We also show that in Mal’tsev spaces of point-countable type, character and π-character coincide.
Le groupe de Cremona est connexe en toute dimension et, muni de sa topologie, il est simple en dimension .
Dans cet article, nous étudions les propriétés asymptotiques d’une large classe de sous-groupe discrets du groupe linéaire réel : les groupes de Ping-Pong. Nous décrivons leur action sur l’espace projectif réel et le comportement à l’infini de leur fonction de comptage.
Soient un espace symétrique de type non compact et un groupe discret d’isométries de du type de Schottky. Dans cet article, nous donnons des équivalents des fonctions orbitales de comptage pour l’action de sur .
