A finitely presented infinite simple group of homeomorphisms of the circle

Yash Lodha

We construct a finitely presented, infinite, simple group that acts by homeomorphisms on the circle, but does not admit a non-trivial action by C1-diffeomorphisms on the circle. This is the first such example. The group emerges as a group of piecewise proj ...

Minimal Polynomials Of Unipotent Elements Of Non-Prime Order In Irreducible Representations Of The Exceptional Algebraic Groups In Some Good Characteristics

Donna Testerman

In a number of cases the minimal polynomials of the images of unipotent elements of non-prime order in irreducible representations of the exceptional algebraic groups in good characteristics are found. It is proved that if p > 5 for a group of type E-8 and ...

On Herz'S Extension Theorem

Antoine Derighetti

We present a self-contained proof of the following famous extension theorem due to Carl Herz. A closed subgroup H of a locally compact group G is a set of p-synthesis in G if and only if, for every u is an element of A(p)(H) boolean AND C-00(H) and for eve ...

Survey on the Figà–Talamanca Herz algebra

Antoine Derighetti

This paper presents a self contained approach to the theory of convolution operators on locally compact groups (both commutative and non commutative) based on the use of the Figà–Talamanca Herz algebras. The case of finite groups is also considered. ...

Hyperbolicity as an obstruction to smoothability for one-dimensional actions

Yash Lodha

Ghys and Sergiescu proved in the 1980s that Thompson's group T, and hence F, admits actions by C-infinity diffeomorphisms of the circle. They proved that the standard actions of these groups are topologically conjugate to a group of C-infinity diffeomorphi ...

Hasse principles for multinorm equations

Eva Bayer Fluckiger, Ting-Yu Lee

A classical result of Hasse states that the norm principle holds for finite cyclic extensions of global fields, in other words local norms are global norms. We investigate the norm principle for finite dimensional commutative kale algebras over global fiel ...

Local Representation Theory and Simple Groups

Donna Testerman, Gunter Malle, Radha Kessar

The book contains extended versions of seven short lecture courses given during a semester programme on Local Representation Theory and Simple Groups, held at the Centre Interfacultaire Bernoulli of the EPF Lausanne. These courses focused on modular repres ...

Extensive amenability and an application to interval exchanges

Nicolas Monod, Nicolas Matte Bon

Extensive amenability is a property of group actions which has recently been used as a tool to prove amenability of groups. We study this property and prove that it is preserved under a very general construction of semidirect products. As an application, w ...

Lifting endo-p-permutation modules

Jacques Thévenaz, Caroline Lassueur

We prove that all endo-p-permutation modules for a finite group are liftable from characteristic p to characteristic 0. ...

Universal p'-central extensions

Jacques Thévenaz, Caroline Lassueur

It is well-known that a finite group possesses a universal central extension if and only if it is a perfect group. Similarly, given a prime number p, we show that a finite group possesses a universal p′-central extension if and only if the p′-part of its a ...
