Kazhdan's property (T)

In mathematics, a locally compact topological group G has property (T) if the trivial representation is an isolated point in its unitary dual equipped with the Fell topology. Informally, this means that if G acts unitarily on a Hilbert space and has "almost invariant vectors", then it has a nonzero invariant vector. The formal definition, introduced by David Kazhdan, gives this a precise, quantitative meaning. Although originally defined in terms of irreducible representations, property (T) can often be checked even when there is little or no explicit knowledge of the unitary dual. Property (T) has important applications to group representation theory, lattices in algebraic groups over local fields, ergodic theory, geometric group theory, expanders, operator algebras and the theory of networks.

Properties of Compactness

Compact sets enjoy some mysterious properties, which I'll discuss in this video. More precisely, compact sets are always bounded and closed. The beauty of this result lies in the proof, which is an elegant application of this subtle concept. Enjoy! Compactness Definition: https://youtu.be

What are bounded functions and how do you determine the boundness

👉 Learn about the characteristics of a function. Given a function, we can determine the characteristics of the function's graph. We can determine the end behavior of the graph of the function (rises or falls left and rises or falls right). We can determine the number of zeros of the functi
