Let R and S be two vectors of real numbers whose entries have the same sum. In the transportation problems one wishes to find a matrix A with row sum vector R and column sum vector S. If, in addition, the two vectors only contain…
On the one hand, we prove that the spaces of C^1 symplectomorphisms and of C^1 volume-preserving diffeomorphisms both contain residual subsets of diffeomorphisms whose centralizers are trivial. On the other hand, we show that the space of…
We consider the general question of estimating decay of correlations for non-uniformly expanding maps, for classes of observables which are much larger than the usual class of Holder continuous functions. Our results give new estimates for…
We characterize (in almost all cases) the holomorphic self-maps of the unit disk that intertwine two given linear fractional self-maps of the disk. The proofs are based on iteration and a careful analysis of the Denjoy-Wolff points. In…
We investigate the differentiability of the conjugacy in a nonautonomous version of the Hartman--Grobman Theorem for systems with finite delay, where the linear part satisfies a $\mu$-dichotomy. Under suitable conditions on the nonlinear…
We first propose a generalization of the image conjecture [Z3] for the commuting differential operators related with classical orthogonal polynomials. We then show that the non-trivial case of this generalized image conjecture is equivalent…
Let $f$ be a $C^{1+\varepsilon}$ diffeomorphism of the closed annulus $A$ that preserves orientation and the boundary components, and $\widetilde{f}$ be a lift of $f$ to its universal covering space. Assume that $A$ is a Birkhoff region of…
Let $D\subset \mathbb{R}^{n}$ be a bounded convex domain and $F:D\rightarrow D$ a $1$-Lipschitz mapping with respect to the Hilbert metric $d$ on $D$ satisfying condition $d(sx+(1-s)y,sz+(1-s)w)\leq \max \{d(x,z),d(y,w) \}$. We show that if…
For a given finite dimensional Hopf algebra $H$ we describe the set of all equivalence classes of cocycle deformations of $H$ as an affine variety, using methods of geometric invariant theory. We show how our results specialize to the…
Let f be a polynomial endomorphism of degree d>1 of C^k (k>1) which extends to a holomorphic endomorphism of P^k. Assume that the maximal order Julia set of f is laminated by real hypersurfaces in some open set. We show that f is homogenous…
If there exists a diffeomorphism $f$ on a closed, orientable $n$-manifold $M$ such that the non-wandering set $\Omega(f)$ consists of finitely many orientable $(\pm)$ attractors derived from expanding maps, then $M$ must be a rational…
Let G be a torus of dimension n > 1 and M a compact Hamiltonian G-manifold with $M^G$ finite. A circle, $S^1$, in G is generic if $M^G = M^{S^1}$. For such a circle the moment map associated with its action on M is a perfect Morse function.…
A formula for the difference of Vassiliev invariants of degree k+1 of two knots all of whose Vassiliev invariants of degree k agree is proven. The proof uses K. Habiro's C-moves and his theorem which relates them to Vassiliev invariants.
We study a class of $\Z^{d}$-substitutive subshifts, including a large family of constant-length substitutions, and homomorphisms between them, i.e., factors modulo isomorphisms of $\Z^{d}$. We prove that any measurable factor map and even…
Let $f_1,..., f_k:X\to N$ be maps from a complex $X$ to a compact manifold $N$, $k\ge 2$. In previous works \cite{BLM,MS}, a Lefschetz type theorem was established so that the non-vanishing of a Lefschetz type coincidence class…
We show a Wolff-Denjoy type theorem in the case of a one-parameter continuous semigroups of nonexpansive mappings in which there is a compact mapping. Using the notion of attractor we are also able to prove some specific properties directly…
Let ${\cal F}\_\lambda(S^1)$ be the space of tensor densities of degree (or weight) $\lambda$ on the circle $S^1$. The space ${\cal D}^k\_{\lambda,\mu}(S^1)$ of $k$-th order linear differential operators from ${\cal F}\_\lambda(S^1)$ to…
Let $f$ be a homeomorphism of the closed annulus $A$ isotopic to the identity, and let $X\subset {\rm Int}A$ be an $f$-invariant continuum which separates $A$ into two domains, the upper domain $U_+$ and the lower domain $U_-$. Fixing a…
Using probabilistic methods, we prove new rigidity results for groups and pseudo-groups of diffeomorphisms of one dimensional manifolds with intermediate regularity class ({\em i.e.} between $C^1$ and $C^2$). In particular, we demonstrate…
We introduce a notion of weak Denjoy subsystem (WDS) that generalizes the Aubry-Mather Cantor sets to diffeomorphisms of manifolds. We explain how a rotation number can be associated to such a WDS. Then we build in any horseshoe a…
