Relative property (T) and linear groups

Talia Fernós (2006)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Relative property (T) has recently been used to show the existence of a variety of new rigidity phenomena, for example in von Neumann algebras and the study of orbit-equivalence relations. However, until recently there were few examples of group pairs with relative property (T) available through the literature. This motivated the following result: A finitely generated group Γ admits a special linear representation with non-amenable R -Zariski closure if and only if it acts on an Abelian group A (of...

Relatively weak* closed ideals of A(G), sets of synthesis and sets of uniqueness

A. Ülger (2014)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Let G be a locally compact amenable group, and A(G) and B(G) the Fourier and Fourier-Stieltjes algebras of G. For a closed subset E of G, let J(E) and k(E) be the smallest and largest closed ideals of A(G) with hull E, respectively. We study sets E for which the ideals J(E) or/and k(E) are σ(A(G),C*(G))-closed in A(G). Moreover, we present, in terms of the uniform topology of C₀(G) and the weak* topology of B(G), a series of characterizations of sets obeying synthesis. Finally, closely related to...
