La proyección y el nivel de competencia del profesor tutor. Acciones metodológicas para su potenciación
In the investigation, elements related to the projection and competence of the tutor professor are provided, supported by the diagnosis made in the process of investigative work practice in the Faculty of Physical Culture of Guantanamo, which reveals limitations in advising students, from Hence, methodological actions are proposed for its empowerment. Scientific methods were used that allowed to reveal and explain the current state of the problem and the collection of information based on the achievement of the objectives. With the application of methodological actions, it was possible to improve the level of competence of the adviser professors.En la investigación se brindan elementos relativos a la proyección y competencia del profesor tutor, sustentado a partir del diagnóstico realizado en el proceso de la práctica laboral investigativa en la facultad de Cultura Física de Guantánamo, que revela limitaciones en la asesoría de los estudiantes, de ahí que se proponen acciones metodológicas para su potenciación.

Rigidity results for Bernoulli actions and their von Neumann algebras (after Sorin Popa)
We survey Sorin Popa's recent work on Bernoulli actions. The paper was
written on the occasion of the Bourbaki seminar. Using very original methods
from operator algebras, Sorin Popa has shown that the orbit structure of the
Bernoulli action of a property (T) group, completely remembers the group and
the action. This information is even essentially contained in the crossed
product von Neumann algebra, yielding the first von Neumann strong rigidity
theorem in the literature. The same methods allow Popa to obtain II_1 factors
with prescribed countable fundamental group.Comment: Minor correction
W*-superrigidity for Bernoulli actions of property (T) groups
We consider group measure space II factors
arising from Bernoulli actions of ICC property (T) groups (more
generally, of groups containing an infinite normal subgroup with
relative property (T)) and prove a rigidity result for *--homomorphisms
. We deduce that the action
is W--superrigid. This means that if
is {\bf any other} free, ergodic, measure
preserving action such that the factors and
are isomorphic, then the actions
and must be conjugate.
Moreover, we show that if is a projection, then
does not admit a group measure space decomposition nor a group von Neumann
algebra decomposition (the latter under the additional assumption that
is torsion free).
We also prove a rigidity result for *--homomorphisms , this
time for in a larger class of groups than above, now including
products of non--amenable groups. For certain groups , e.g.
, we deduce that does not embed in ,
for any projection , and obtain a description of the
endomorphism semigroup of .Comment: The revised version includes a new application: examples of II_1
factors which are not isomorphic to twisted group von Neumann algebra
Consensus using Asynchronous Failure Detectors
The FLP result shows that crash-tolerant consensus is impossible to solve in
asynchronous systems, and several solutions have been proposed for
crash-tolerant consensus under alternative (stronger) models. One popular
approach is to augment the asynchronous system with appropriate failure
detectors, which provide (potentially unreliable) information about process
crashes in the system, to circumvent the FLP impossibility.
In this paper, we demonstrate the exact mechanism by which (sufficiently
powerful) asynchronous failure detectors enable solving crash-tolerant
consensus. Our approach, which borrows arguments from the FLP impossibility
proof and the famous result from CHT, which shows that is a weakest
failure detector to solve consensus, also yields a natural proof to as
a weakest asynchronous failure detector to solve consensus. The use of I/O
automata theory in our approach enables us to model execution in a more
detailed fashion than CHT and also addresses the latent assumptions and
assertions in the original result in CHT
Explicit computations of all finite index bimodules for a family of II_1 factors
We study II_1 factors M and N associated with good generalized Bernoulli
actions of groups having an infinite almost normal subgroup with the relative
property (T). We prove the following rigidity result: every finite index
M-N-bimodule (in particular, every isomorphism between M and N) is described by
a commensurability of the groups involved and a commensurability of their
actions. The fusion algebra of finite index M-M-bimodules is identified with an
extended Hecke fusion algebra, providing the first explicit computations of the
fusion algebra of a II_1 factor. We obtain in particular explicit examples of
II_1 factors with trivial fusion algebra, i.e. only having trivial finite index
subfactors.Comment: Minor modifications, final versio
On Sofic Actions and Equivalence Relations
The notion of sofic equivalence relation was introduced by Gabor Elek and
Gabor Lippner. Their technics employ some graph theory. Here we define this
notion in a more operator algebraic context, starting from Connes' embedding
problem, and prove the equivalence of this two definitions. We introduce a
notion of sofic action for an arbitrary group and prove that amalgamated
product of sofic actions over amenable groups is again sofic. We also prove
that amalgamated product of sofic groups over an amenable subgroup is again
sofic.Comment: Improved version after remark
Rigid supersymmetry with boundaries
We construct rigidly supersymmetric bulk-plus-boundary actions, both in
-space and in superspace. For each standard supersymmetric bulk action a
minimal supersymmetric bulk-plus-boundary action follows from an extended -
or -term formula. Additional separately supersymmetric boundary actions can
be systematically constructed using co-dimension one multiplets (boundary
superfields). We also discuss the orbit of boundary conditions which follow
from the Euler-Lagrange variational principle.Comment: 28 pages, JHEP clas
On solid ergodicity for Gaussian actions
We investigate Gaussian actions through the study of their crossed-product
von Neumann algebra. The motivational result is Chifan and Ioana's ergodic
decomposition theorem for Bernoulli actions (Ergodic subequivalence relations
induced by a Bernoulli action, {\it Geometric and Functional Analysis}{\bf 20}
(2010), 53-67) that we generalize to Gaussian actions. We also give general
structural results that allow us to get a more accurate result at the level of
von Neumann algebras. More precisely, for a large class of Gaussian actions
, we show that any subfactor of containing is either hyperfinite or is non-Gamma
and prime. At the end of the article, we generalize this result to Bogoliubov
actions.Comment: Updated version, 20 page
