We prove that for $C^{1+\theta}$, $\theta$-bunched, dynamically coherent partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms, the stable and unstable holonomies between center leaves are $C^1$ and the derivative depends continuously on the points and on…

To construct an $A_{\infty}$-form for a loop space in the category of diffeological spaces, we have two minor problems. Firstly, the concatenation of paths in the category of diffeological spaces needs a small technical trick (see…

We endow the diffeomorphism group of a paracompact (reduced) orbifold with the structure of an infinite dimensional Lie group modelled on the space of compactly supported sections of the tangent orbibundle. For a second countable orbifold,…

Modifying Hall's idea in "A C^{\infty} Denjoy counterexample" we construct an example of homeomorphism of the circle which is a Denjoy counterexample (i.e. it is not conjugated to a rotation) and which is a C^{\infty}-diffeomorphism…

We consider a closed odd-dimensional oriented manifold $M$ together with an acyclic flat hermitean vector bundle $\cF$. We form the trivial fibre bundle with fibre $M$ over the manifold of all Riemannian metrics on $M$. It has a natural…

Let $A$ be a uniform algebra, $\theta:A\to M_n(\mathbb{C})$ be a continuous homomorphism and $\alpha:A\to A$ be an antilinear contraction such that \[ \|\theta(f)+\theta(\alpha(f))^*\|\le 2\|f\| \quad(f\in A). \] We show that $\|\theta\|\le…

A linear automorphism of Euclidean space is called bi-circular its eigenvalues lie in the disjoint union of two circles $C_1$ and $C_2$ in the complex plane where the radius of $C_1$ is $r_1$, the radius of $C_2$ is $r_2$, and $0 < r_1 < 1…

For minimal unique ergodic diffeomorphisms $\alpha_n$ of $S^{2n+1} (n>0)$ and $\alpha_m$ of $S^{2m+1}(m>0)$, the $C^*$-crossed product algebra $C(S^{2n+1})\rtimes_{\alpha_n} \mathbb{Z}$ is isomorphic to $C(S^{2m+1})\rtimes_{\alpha_m}…

We construct, for each irrational number $\alpha$, a minimal $C^1$-diffeomorphism of the circle with rotation number $\alpha$ which admits a measur

Denote by $\DC(M)_0$ the identity component of the group of compactly supported $C^\infty$ diffeomorphisms of a connected $C^\infty$ manifold $M$, and by $\HR$ the group of the homeomorphisms of $\R$. We show that if $M$ is a closed…

A well-known lemma by John Franks asserts that one obtains any perturbation of the derivative of a diffeomorphism along a periodic orbit by a $C^1$-perturbation of the whole diffeomorphism on a small neighbourhood of the orbit. However, one…

We show that the diffeomorphisms of an extended phase space with time, energy, momentum and position degrees of freedom that leave invariant the symplectic 2-form and and a degenerate orthogonal metric dt^2 locally satisfy Hamilton's…

The celebrated Morlet-Burghelea-Lashof-Kirby-Siebenmann smoothing theory theorem states that the group $\mathrm{Diff}_\partial(D^n)$ of diffeomorphisms of a disc $D^n$ relative to the boundary is equivalent to…

Using pseudoholomorphic curves techniques from symplectic geometry, Barney Bramham proved recently that every smooth irrational pseudo-rotation of the unit disk is the limit, for the $C^0$ topology, of a sequence of smooth periodic…

We show that if a diffeomorphism of a symplectic manifold $(M^{2n},\omega)$ preserves the form $\omega^{k}$ for $0 < k < n$ and is connected to identity through such diffeomorphisms then it is indeed a symplectomorphism.

Several perturbation tools are established in the volume preserving setting allowing for the pasting, extension, localized smoothing and local linearization of vector fields. The pasting and local linearization hold in all classes of…

We examine the itinerary of $0\in S^{1}=\R/\Z$ under the rotation by $\alpha\in\R\bs\Q$. The motivating question is: if we are given only the itinerary of 0 relative to $I\subset S^{1}$, a finite union of closed intervals, can we recover…

Let $M$ be a connected 1-manifold, i.e., $M = \R \cong (0, 1), [0, 1), [0, 1]$, or $S^1$, and let $\Homeo_+(M)$ (resp. $\Diff_+^1(M)$) be the group of orientation-preserving homeomorphisms (resp. $C^1$ diffeomorphisms) of $M$. It is a…

We consider the rotation number $\rho(t)$ of a diffeomorphism $f_t=R_t\circ f$, where $R_t$ is the rotation by $t$ and $f$ is an orientation preserving $C^\infty$ diffeomorphism of the circle $S^1$. We shall show that if $\rho(t)$ is…

In this paper, we initiate the study of endomorphisms and modular theory of the graph C*-algebras $\O_{\theta}$of a 2-graph $\Fth$ on a single vertex. We prove that there is a semigroup isomorphism between unital endomorphisms of…
