Let (M,F) be a foliated manifold. We study the relationship between the basic cohomology Hb(M,F) of the foliation and the De Rham cohomology H(DF) of the space of leaves M/F as a quotient diffeological space. We prove that for an arbitrary…

We exhibit two three-parameter families of locally conformal symplectic forms on the solvmanifold $M_{n,k}$ considered in [1], and show, using the Hodge-de Rham theory for the Lichnerowicz cohomology that that they are not $d_{\omega}$…

Let M be a rank 1 affine invariant orbifold in a stratum of the moduli space of flat surfaces. We show that the leaves of the M-isoperiodic foliation are either all closed or all dense. In the second case, we establish ergodicity of the…

We establish that if a submanifold $M$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ is definable in some o-minimal structure then any definable submanifold $N\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ which is $\mathscr{C}^\infty$ diffeomorphic to $M$, with a diffeomorphism $h:N\to M$…

We consider the class of profinite diffeological spaces, that is, diffeological spaces which diffeologies are deduced by pull-back of diffeologies on finite-dimensional manifolds through a system of projection mappings. This class includes…

For $M$ being a closed manifold or the Euclidean space we present a detailed proof of regularity properties of the composition of $H^s$-regular diffeomorphisms of $M$ for $s > 1/2\dim M + 1$.

We study generic Riemannian submersions from nearly Kaehler manifolds onto Riemannian manifolds. We investigate conditions for the integrability of various distributions arising for generic Riemannian submersions and also obtain conditions…

Given a generic 2-plane field on a 5-dimensional manifold we consider its (3,2)-signature conformal metric [g] as defined in math.DG/0406400. Every conformal class [g] obtained in this way has very special conformal holonomy: it must be…

Suppose that $M$ is a Riemann surface with boundary $\partial M$, $\Lambda$ is its DN-map, and $\mathscr E:M\to\mathbb{C}^{n}$ % $\mathfrak{J}_{M}$ is a holomorphic immersion. Let $M'$ be diffeomorphic to $M$, $\partial M=\partial M'$; let…

In this paper, I shall demonstrate that sufficiently high-dimensional closed positively-curved Riemannian manifolds are either diffeomorphic to a spherical space form, or isometric to a locally compact rank one symmetric space. This…

We describe a canonical procedure for associating to any (germ of) holomorphic self-map f of C^n fixing the origin such that df_O is invertible and non-diagonalizable an n-dimensional complex manifold M, a holomorphic map p from M to C^n, a…

It is shown that certain diffeomorphism or homeomorphism groups with no restriction on support of an open manifold with finite number of ends are bounded. It follows that these groups are uniformly perfect. In order to characterize the…

We consider spaces for which there is a notion of harmonicity for complex valued functions defined on them. For instance, this is the case of Riemannian manifolds on one hand, and (metric) graphs on the other hand. We observe that it is…

On conformal manifolds of even dimension $n\geq 4$ we construct a family of new conformally invariant differential complexes. Each bundle in each of these complexes appears either in the de Rham complex or in its dual. Each of the new…

The existence of an exactly marginal deformation in a conformal field theory is very special, but it is not well understood how this is reflected in the allowed dimensions and OPE coefficients of local operators. To shed light on this…

Let $\varphi$ be a univalent non-elliptic self-map of the unit disc $\mathbb D$ and let $(\psi_{t})$ be a continuous one-parameter semigroup of holomorphic functions in $\mathbb D$ such that $\psi_{1}\neq\mathrm{id}_{\mathbb D}$ commutes…

The aim of the present paper is to study conditions under which all the non-wandering points are periodic points, for a discrete dynamical system of two variables defined on a compact manifold. We include a survey of known results in all…

Let $(M^m,g)$ be an $m$-dimensional closed Riemannian manifold with non-negative sectional curvatures, $m\ge 3$. We define a conformal invariant and prove that, if the conformal invariant is bounded from above by a constant depending only…

By Liouville's theorem, in dimensions 3 or more conformal transformations form a finite-dimensional group, an apparent drastic departure from the 2-dimensional case. We propose a derived enhancement of the conformal Lie algebra which is an…

The difference variational bicomplex, which is the natural setting for systems of difference equations, is constructed and used to examine the geometric and algebraic properties of various systems. Exactness of the bicomplex gives a…
