TORSION IN K-THEORY FOR BOUNDARY ACTIONS ON AFFINE BUILDINGS OF TYPE Ãn
نویسنده
چکیده
Let Γ be a torsion free lattice in G = PGL(n+ 1,F), where n ≥ 1 and F is a non-archimedean local field. Then Γ acts on the Furstenberg boundary G/P , where P is a minimal parabolic subgroup of G. The identity element I in the crossed product C∗-algebra C(G/P ) ⋊ Γ generates a class [I] in the K0 group of C(G/P ) ⋊ Γ. It is shown that [I] is a torsion element of K0 and there is an explicit bound for the order of [I]. The result is proved more generally for groups acting on affine buildings of type Ãn. For n = 1, 2 the Euler-Poincaré characteristic χ(Γ) annihilates the class [I].

The microtubes are important structures in nano electromechanical system .in this study a nonlocal model is presented to investigate the static torsion behavior of microtubes made of bi-directional factionally graded material (BDFGM) subjected to a longitudinal magnetic field. Mechanical properties of BDFGM microtube varies in the radial and longitudinal direction according to an arbitrary func...
متن کاملBoundary Actions for Affine Buildings and Higher Rank Cuntz-krieger Algebras
Let Γ be a group of type rotating automorphisms of an affine building B of type Ã2. If Γ acts freely on the vertices of B with finitely many orbits, and if Ω is the (maximal) boundary of B, then C(Ω) ⋊ Γ is a p.i.s.u.n. C∗-algebra. This algebra has a structure theory analogous to that of a simple Cuntz-Krieger algebra and is the motivation for a theory of higher rank CuntzKrieger algebras, whic...
متن کاملA Curtis-Tits-Phan theorem for the twin-building of type Ãn−1
The Curtis-Tits-Phan theory as laid out originally by Bennett and Shpectorov describes a way to employ Tits’ lemma to obtain presentations of groups related to buildings as the universal completion of an amalgam of low-rank groups. It is formulated in terms of twin-buildings, but all concrete results so far were concerned with spherical buildings only. We describe an explicit flip-flop geometry...
متن کاملSaint-Venant torsion of non-homogeneous anisotropic bars
The BEM is applied to the solution of the torsion problem of non-homogeneous anisotropic non-circular prismatic bars. The problem is formulated in terms of the warping function. This formulation leads to a second order partial differential equation with variable coefficients, subjected to a generalized Neumann type boundary condition. The problem is solved using the Analog Equation Method (AEM)...
