We study the isometry group of a globally hyperbolic spatially compact Lorentz surface. Such a group acts on the circle, and we show that when the isometry group acts non properly, the subgroups of $\mathrm{Diff}(\mathbb{S}^1)$ obtained are…

An automorphism $f$ of a closed orientable surface $\Sigma$ is said to be extendable over the 3-sphere $S^3$ if $f$ extends to an automorphism of the pair $(S^3, \Sigma)$ with respect to some embedding $\Sigma \hookrightarrow S^3$. We prove…

We continue with the ideas of Bonatti-Langevin-Jeandenans towards a constructive and algorithmic classification of pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms (possibly with spines), up to topological conjugacy. We begin by indicating how to assign to…

We consider a self-homeomorphism h of some surface S. A subset F of the fixed point set of h is said to be unlinked if there is an isotopy from the identity to h that fixes every point of F. With Le Calvez' transverse foliations theory in…

Let $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^{n}$ be a bounded open set. Given $1\leq m_1,m_2\leq n-2$, we construct a homeomorphism $f :\Omega\to \Omega$ that is H\"older continuous, $f$ is the identity on $\partial \Omega$, the derivative $D f$ has rank…

Let $\mathbb{A}$ and $\mathbb{S}$ denote the double arrow of Alexandroff and the Sorgenfrey line, respectively. We show that any homeomorphism $h:^m\mathbb{A}\to^m\mathbb{A} $ is locally (outside of a nowhere dense set) a product of…

Let $S$ be a Riemann surface of type $(p,n)$ with $3p+n>4$ and $n\geq 1$. Let $\alpha_1,\alpha_2\subset S$ be two simple closed geodesics such that $\{\alpha_1, \alpha_2\}$ fills $S$. It was shown by Thurston that most maps obtained through…

In this work we completely classify $C^\infty$ conjugacy for conservative partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms homotopic to a linear Anosov automorphism on the 3-torus by its center foliation behavior. We prove that the uniform version of…

For an $\alpha$-expansive homeomorphism of a compact space we give an elementary proof of the following well-known result in topological dynamics: A sufficient condition for the homeomorphism to have the shadowing property is that it has…

We show that if a partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism of a Seifert manifold induces a map in the base which has a pseudo-Anosov component then it cannot be dynamically coherent. This extends work of Bonatti, Gogolev, Hammerlindl and Potrie…

For every atoroidal iwip automorphism $\phi$ of $F_N$ (i.e. the analogue of a pseudo-Anosov mapping class) it is shown that the algebraic lamination dual to the forward limit tree $T_+(\phi)$ is obtained as "diagonal closure" of the support…

We study the behavior of hyperbolic affine automorphisms of a translation surface which is infinite in area and genus that is obtained as a limit of surfaces built from regular polygons studied by Veech. We find that hyperbolic affine…

Drawing inspiration from [BBF15], we construct a family of unbounded quasi-trees for a connected closed oriented surface $S_g$ of genus $g\geq 2$, upon which the group $\mathrm{Homeo}_0(S_g)$ acts coboundedly by isometries. As an…

We prove that in the non-orientable setting, the minimal stretch factor of a pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism of a surface of genus $g$ with a fixed number of punctures is asymptotically on the order of $\frac{1}{g}$. Our result adapts the work…

We prove that if f is an orientation-preserving homeomorphism of a closed orientable surface M whose singular set is totally disconnected, then f is topologically conjugate to a conformal transformation.

Let G be a locally compact, Hausdorff groupoid in which s is a local homeomorphism and the unit space is totally disconnected. Assume there is a continuous cocycle c from G into a discrete group $\Gamma$. We show that the collection A(G) of…

Given any genus-two, hyperbolic, fibered knot in $S^3$ with nonzero fractional Dehn twist coefficient, we show that its pseudo-Anosov representative has a fixed point. Combined with recent work of Baldwin--Hu--Sivek, this proves that knot…

We study a class of homeomorphisms of surfaces collectively known as linked-twist maps. We introduce an abstract definition which enables us to give a precise characterisation of a property observed by other authors, namely that such maps…

We give a combinatorial characterization of the group of quasiconformal homeomorphisms of a closed, oriented surface $S$ of genus at least $2$. In particular, we prove they are exactly the automorphisms of a graph of essential quasicircles…

Let $S$ be a closed, connected, orientable surface of genus at least 3, $\mathcal{C}(S)$ be the complex of curves on $S$ and $Mod_S^*$ be the extended mapping class group of $S$. We prove that a simplicial map, $\lambda: \mathcal{C}(S) \to…
