1 2 M ay 2 00 3 Measurable Categories and 2 - Groups

چکیده

Using the theory of measurable categories developped in [Yet03], we provide a notion of representations of 2-groups more well-suited to physically and geometrically interesting examples than that using 2-VECT (cf. [KV94]). Using this theory we sketch a 2-categorical approach to the state-sum model for Lorentzian quantum gravity proposed in [CY03], and suggest state-integral constructions for 4-manifold invariants.

2 3 M ay 2 00 7 From triangulated categories to abelian categories – cluster tilting in a general framework

A general framework for cluster tilting is set up by showing that any quotient of a triangulated category modulo a tilting subcategory (that is, a maximal oneorthogonal subcategory) carries an induced abelian structure. These abelian quotients turn out to be module categories of Gorenstein algebras of dimension at most one.

We propose a new approach to superrigidity phenomena and implement it for lattice representations and measurable cocycles with Homeo+(S ) as the target group. We are motivated by Ghys’ theorem stating that any representation ̺ : Γ → Homeo+(S ) of an irreducible lattice Γ in a semi-simple real Lie group G of higher rank, either has a finite orbit or, up to a semi-conjugacy, extends to G which act...

We obtain the structure of weight 2 blocks and [2 : 1]-pairs of q-Schur algebras, and compute explicitly the modular Alvis-Curtis duality for weight 2 blocks of finite general linear groups in non-defining characteristic.

Let D and G be copies of the open unit disc in C, let A (resp. B) be a measurable subset of ∂D (resp. ∂G), let W be the 2-fold cross ( (D ∪A)×B ) ∪ ( A× (B ∪G) ) , and let M be a relatively closed subset of W. Suppose in addition that A and B are of positive one-dimensional Lebesgue measure and that M is fiberwise polar (resp. fiberwise discrete) and that M ∩(A×B) = ∅. We determine the “envelop...
