4-dimensional U(m) structures

We will define the modified deRham operator D on U(m) structures, and prove that D^2=0 is equivalent to d \omega=0 in the 4-dimensional case.

Simplicity of crossed products of the actions of totally disconnected locally compact groups on their boundaries

Results of Archbold and Spielberg, and Kalantar and Kennedy assert that a discrete group admits a topologically free boundary if and only if the reduced crossed product of continuous functions on its Furstenberg boundary by the group is simple. In this talk, I will show a similar result for totally disconnected locally compact groups.
