Let $M$ and $N$ be smooth manifolds, with $M$ closed and connected. If the $C^r$--diffeomorphism group of $M$ is elementarily equivalent to the $C^s$--diffeomorphism group of $N$ for some $r,s\in[1,\infty)\cup\{0,\infty\}$, then $r=s$ and…

We answer in the negative a question of Hartley about representations of finite groups, by constructing examples of finite simple groups with arbitrarily large representations whose endomorphism ring consists of just the scalars. We show as…

We prove three formulas for computing topological pressure of $C^1$-generic conservative diffeomorphism and show the continuity of topological pressure with respect to these diffeomorphisms. We prove for these generic diffeomorphisms that…

We show that a $C^1-$generic non partially hyperbolic symplectic diffeomorphism $f$ has topological entropy equal to the supremum of the sum of the positive Lyapunov exponents of its hyperbolic periodic points. Moreover, we also prove that…

In this paper we study R-reversible area-preserving maps f on a two-dimensional Riemannian closed manifold M, i.e. diffeomorphisms f such that Ro f=f^{-1}o R where R is an isometric involution on M. We obtain a C1-residual subset where any…

We study a certain class circle maps which are constant on one interval (called flat piece), and such that the degrees of the singularities at the boundary of the flat piece are different. In this paper, we show that if the topological…

A subgroup $G\subset Diff^1_+([0,1])$ is $C^1$-close to the identity if there is a sequence $h_n\in Diff^1_+([0,1])$ such that the conjugates $h_n g h_n^{-1}$ tend to the identity for the $C^1$-topology, for every $g\in G$. This is…

We consider a parallelizable $2n$-manifold $F$ which has the homotopy type of the wedge product of $n$-spheres and show that the group of pseudo-isotopy classes of orientation preserving diffeomorphisms that keep the boundary $\partial F$…

We show that any diffeomorphism of a compact manifold can be C1 approximated by diffeomorphisms exhibiting a homoclinic tangency or by diffeomorphisms having a partial hyperbolic structure.

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 obtain a dichotomy for $C^1$-generic symplectomorphisms: either all the Lyapunov exponents of almost every point vanish, or the map is partially hyperbolic and ergodic with respect to volume. This completes a program first put forth by…

We study the problem of conjugating a diffeomorphism of the interval to (positive) powers of itself. Although this is always possible for homeomorphisms, the smooth setting is rather interesting. Besides the obvious obstruction given by…

We formalize the concept of a centralizer-respecting homomorphism, surjective homomorphisms which are equivariant with respect to taking the centralizer of a subgroup. There is a functor from the category of centralizer-respecting…

In this paper, we study generalized symmetric Finsler spaces. We first study symmetry preserving diffeomorphisms, then we show that the group of symmetry preserving diffeomorphisms is a transitive Lie transformation group. Finally we give…

We prove a $C^1$ version of a conjecture by Pugh and Shub: among partially hyperbolic volume-preserving $C^r$ diffeomorphisms, $r>1$, the stably ergodic ones are $C^1$-dense. To establish these results, we develop new perturbation tools for…

We answer a question of Burns and Wilkinson, showing that there are open families of volume-preserving partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms which are accessible and center bunched and neither dynamically coherent nor Anosov. We also show in…

One main task of smooth dynamical systems consists in finding a good decomposition into elementary pieces of the dynamics. This paper contributes to the study of chain-recurrence classes. It is known that $C^1$-generically, each…

Let $f$ be a $C^2$ partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms of ${\mathbb T}^3$ (not necessarily volume preserving or transitive) isotopic to a linear Anosov diffeomorphism $A$ with eigenvalues $$\lambda_{s}<1<\lambda_{c}<\lambda_{u}.$$ Under…

We answer affirmatively a question posed by Morita on homological stability of surface diffeomorphisms made discrete. In particular, we prove that $C^{\infty}$-diffeomorphisms and volume preserving diffeomorphisms of surfaces as family of…

The goal of the article is to characterize the conservative homeomorphisms of a closed orientable surface $S$ of genus $\geq 2$, that have finitely many periodic points. By conservative, we mean a map with no wandering point. As a…
