In this paper, we study some intrinsic characterization of conformally compact manifolds. We show that, if a complete Riemannian manifold admits an essential set and its curvature tends to -1 at infinity in certain rate, then it is…

Compact K\"{a}hler manifolds satisfy several nice Hodge-theoretic properties such as the Hodge symmetry, the Hard Lefschetz property and the Hodge-Riemann bilinear relations, etc. In this note, we investigate when such nice properties hold…

We prove that there exist finitely presented, residually finite groups that are profinitely rigid in the class of all finitely presented groups but not in the class of all finitely generated groups. These groups are of the form $\Gamma…

Let $G$ be a locally compact abelian group. By modifying a theorem of Pedersen, it follows that actions of $G$ on $C^*$-algebras $A$ and $B$ are outer conjugate if and only if there is an isomorphism of the crossed products that is…

Main topic of the paper is the determination, for a compact complex manifold $M$, of the class of manifolds $X$ which are deformation equivalent to it. If $M$ is a complex torus, then also $X$ is so. After describing the structure of…

In a previous paper, arXiv:1206.5498, we introduced a new homological invariant $\e$ for the faithful action of a finite group G on an algebraic curve. We show here that the moduli space of curves admitting a faithful action of a finite…

In this article, we develop a systematic cohomological framework for the study of the rigidity of nilpotent Lie foliations with respect to solvable deformations. We introduce the deformation complex associated to a pair of Lie algebras…

We consider genera of polyhedra (finite cell complexes) in the stable homotopy category. Namely, the genus of a polyhedron X is the class of polyhedra Y such that all localizations of Y are stably isomorphic to the corresponding…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective connected curve of genus $g\ge 2$ defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. Let $G$ be a finite group, $P$ a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$ and $N_G(P)$ its normalizer in $G$. We show…

In a group, a non-trivial element is called a generalized torsion element if some non-empty finite product of its conjugates equals to the identity. We say that a knot has generalized torsion if its knot group admits such an element. For a…

We prove the following rigidity result for the Tonelli Hamiltonians. Let T * M be the cotangent bundle of a closed manifold M endowed with its usual symplectic form. Let (F\_n) be a sequence of Tonelli Hamiltonians that C^0 converges on the…

Consider a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary endowed with a magnetic field. A path taken by a particle of unit charge, mass, and energy is called a magnetic geodesic. It is shown that if everything is real-analytic, the topology,…

Let $M$ be a compact orientable irreducible 3-manifold and $H$ be an unstabilized genus three Heegaard splitting of $M$. In this article, we will define a simplicial complex of weak reducing pairs for $H$ and find several properties of this…

A discrete group $\G$ is called rigidly symmetric if for every $C^*$-algebra $\A$ the projective tensor product $\ell^1(\G)\widehat\otimes\A$ is a symmetric Banach $^*$-algebra. For such a group we show that the twisted crossed product…

For manifolds equipped with group actions, we have the following natural question: To what extent does the equivariant cohomology determine the equivariant diffeotype? We resolve this question for Hamiltonian circle actions on compact,…

We examine the generic local and global rigidity of various graphs in R^d. Bruce Hendrickson showed that some necessary conditions for generic global rigidity are (d+1)-connectedness and generic redundant rigidity and hypothesized that they…

Let $X$ be a compact Riemann surface $X$ of genus at--least two. Fix a holomorphic line bundle $L$ over $X$. Let $\mathcal M$ be the moduli space of Hitchin pairs $(E ,\phi\in H^0(End(E)\otimes L))$ over $X$ of rank $r$ and fixed…

We show that for a locally free action of a simply connected nilpotent Lie group on a compact manifold, if every real valued cocycle is cohomologous to a constant cocycle, then the action is parameter rigid. The converse is true if the…

We prove two rigidity results on holomorphic isometries into homogeneous K\"{a}hler manifolds. The first shows that a K\"{a}hler-Ricci soliton induced by the homogeneous metric of the K\"{a}hler product of a special flag manifold (i.e. a…

Quoric manifolds are the quaternionic analogue of toric manifolds. They admit a locally nice action of $(S^3)^n$ and the quotient is a manifold with corners. We show that they satisfy equivariant rigidity. More precisely, any locally linear…
