We study triangulated categories which can be modeled by an oriented marked surface $\mathcal{S}$ and a line field $\eta$ on $\mathcal{S}$. This includes bounded derived categories of gentle algebras and -- conjecturally -- all partially…

In this paper we prove a homological stability theorem for the diffeomorphism groups of high dimensional manifolds with boundary, with respect to forming the boundary connected sum with the product $D^{p+1}\times S^{q}$ for $|q - p| <…

It is proved that for any $0<\beta<\alpha$, any bounded Ahlfors $\alpha$-regular space contains a $\beta$-regular compact subset that embeds biLipschitzly in an ultrametric with distortion at most $O(\alpha/(\alpha-\beta))$. The bound on…

M Handel has proved in [Topology 38 (1999) 235--264] a fixed point theorem for an orientation preserving homeomorphism of the open unit disk, that may be extended to the closed disk and that satisfies a linking property of orbits. We give…

En s'appuyant sur un th\'eor\`me de fonctions implicites de Hamilton nous montrons la persistance d'une courbe invariante indiff\'rente pour une dynamique holomorpphe fibr\'ee en classe $C^{\infty}$. Une condition diophantienne sur la paire…

We prove that the entropy norm on the group of diffeomorphisms of a closed orientable surface of positive genus is unbounded.

Let $\beta>1$ be a real number and define the $\beta$-transformation on $[0,1]$ by $T_\beta:x\mapsto \beta x\bmod 1$. Further, define $$W_y(T_{\beta},\Psi):=\{x\in [0, 1]:|T_\beta^nx-y|<\Psi(n) \mbox{ for infinitely many $n$}\}$$ and…

Let $D$ be a closed unit $2$-disk on the plane centered at the origin $O$, and $F$ be a smooth vector field such that $O$ is a unique singular point of $F$ and all other orbits of $F$ are simple closed curves wrapping once around $O$. Thus…

Let $(Z, D)$ be a pair of a smooth surface and a smooth anti-canonical divisor. Denote by $\mathfrak{M}_\beta$ the moduli stack of genus $0$ relative stable morphisms of class $\beta$ with full tangency to the boundary. Let $C_1$ and $C_2$…

We survey some recent advances in the study of (area-preserving) flows on surfaces, in particular on the typical dynamical, ergodic and spectral properties of smooth area-preserving (or locally Hamiltonian) flows, as well as recent…

In the first part of this text we give a survey of the properties satisfied by the C1-generic conservative diffeomorphisms of compact surfaces. The main result that we will discuss is that a C1-generic conservative diffeomorphism of a…

We prove two theorems of reduction of cocycles taking values in the group of diffeomorphisms of the circle. They generalise previous results obtained by the author concerning rigidity for smooth actions on the circle of Kazhdan's groups and…

The main result of this paper states that a symplectic s-cobordism of elliptic 3-manifolds is diffeomorphic to a product (assuming a canonical contact structure on the boundary). Based on this theorem, we conjecture that a smooth…

We consider $C^r$ ($r\geqslant 1$) diffeomorphisms $f$ defined on manifolds of dimension $\geqslant 3$ with homoclinic tangencies associated to saddles. Under generic properties, we show that if the saddle is homoclinically related to a…

We prove that the group of contact diffeomorphisms is closed in the group of all diffeomorphisms in the C^0-topology. By Gromov's alternative, it suffices to exhibit a diffeomorphism that can not be approximated uniformly by contact…

A Hermitian symplectic manifold is a complex manifold endowed with a symplectic form $\omega$, for which the bilinear form $\omega(I\cdot,\cdot)$ is positive definite. In this work we prove $dd^c$-lemma for 1- and (1,1)-forms for compact…

Let S be a compact surface - or the interior of a compact surface - and let V be the manifold of cooriented contact elements of S equiped with its canonical contact structure. A diffeomorphism of V that preserves the contact structure and…

For a given coorientable contact manifold $(M^{2n+1},\xi)$, we consider the group $ \operatorname{Cont}_c^{(r,\delta)}(M,\alpha)$ consisting of $C^{r,\delta}$ contactomorphisms with compact support which is equipped with…

In this paper we give a complete topological classification of orientation preserving Morse-Smale diffeomorphisms on orientable closed surfaces. For MS diffeomorphisms with relatively simple behaviour it was known that such a classification…

In this paper we discuss the relationship between groups of diffeomorphisms of spheres and balls. We survey results of a topological nature and then address the relationship as abstract (discrete) groups. We prove that the identity…
