Coherent algebras
Coherent algebras are defined to be the subalgebras of the matrix algebras Mn() closed under Hadamard ( = coefficientwise) multiplication and containing the all 1 matrix, and are shown to be precisely the adjacency algebras of coherent configurations. Each such algebra has a type, which is a symmetric matrix with positive integer entries. The theory is illustrated by applications to quasisymmetric designs, which are essentially equivalent to coherent algebras of type .Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/26620/1/0000161.pd

On Turing dynamical systems and the Atiyah problem
Main theorems of the article concern the problem of M. Atiyah on possible
values of l^2-Betti numbers. It is shown that all non-negative real numbers are
l^2-Betti numbers, and that "many" (for example all non-negative algebraic)
real numbers are l^2-Betti numbers of simply connected manifolds with respect
to a free cocompact action. Also an explicit example is constructed which leads
to a simply connected manifold with a transcendental l^2-Betti number with
respect to an action of the threefold direct product of the lamplighter group
Z/2 wr Z. The main new idea is embedding Turing machines into integral group
rings. The main tool developed generalizes known techniques of spectral
computations for certain random walk operators to arbitrary operators in
groupoid rings of discrete measured groupoids.Comment: 35 pages; essentially identical to the published versio

Largeness and SQ-universality of cyclically presented groups
Largeness, SQ-universality, and the existence of free subgroups of rank 2 are measures of the complexity of a finitely presented group. We obtain conditions under which a cyclically presented group possesses one or more of these properties. We apply our results to a class of groups introduced by Prishchepov which contains, amongst others, the various generalizations of Fibonacci groups introduced by Campbell and Robertson
