We prove that generically in $\text{Diff}^{1}_{m}(M)$, if an expanding $f$-invariant foliation $W$ of dimension $u$ is minimal and there is a periodic point of unstable index $u$, the foliation is stably minimal. By this we mean there is a…

For a proper semistable curve $X$ over a DVR of mixed characteristics we reprove the "invariant cycles theorem" with trivial coefficients (see Chiarellotto, 1999) i.e. that the group of elements annihilated by the monodromy operator on the…

Let Pi: M -> B be an onto maximal rank map or a Riemannian submersion between Riemannian manifolds M and B. Initially, we prove necessary and sufficient conditions for any fiber F to be roughly isometric to M. Then, we prove necessary and…

Consider a closed coisotropic submanifold $N$ of a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$ and a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism $\phi$ on $M$. The main result of this article states that $\phi$ has at least the cup-length of $N$ many leafwise fixed…

The paper studies how to extend local calibration pairs to global ones in various situations. As a result, new discoveries involving mass-minimizing properties are exhibited. In particular, we show that a $\mathbb R$-homologically…

For an open manifold $M$ and a function $v$ with bounded growth of derivative, there exists a Riemannian metric of bounded geometry on $M$ such that the volume growth function lies in the same growth class as $v$. This was proved by R.…

For every diffeomorphism $\varphi:M\to N$ between 3--dimensional Riemannian manifolds $M$ and $N$ there are in general locally two 2--dimensional distributions $D_{\pm}$ such that $\varphi$ is conformal on both of them. We state necessary…

Let $M$ be a manifold with a volume form $\omega$ and $f : M \to M$ be a diffeomorphism of class $\mathcal{C}^1$ that preserves $\omega$. In this paper, we do \textit{not} assume $f$ is $\mathcal{C}^1$-generic. We have two main themes in…

A theorem of W. Derrick ensures that the volume of any Riemannian cube $([0,1]^n,g)$ is bounded below by the product of the distances between opposite codimension-1 faces. In this paper, we establish a discrete analog of Derrick's…

We introduce a notion of volume of a normal isolated singularity that generalizes Wahl's characteristic number of surface singularities to arbitrary dimensions. We prove a basic monotonicity property of this volume under finite morphisms.…

Let $f\colon X\to B$ be a semistable fibration where $X$ is a smooth variety of dimension $n\geq 2$ and $B$ is a smooth curve. We give the structure theorem for the local system of the relative $1$-forms and of the relative top forms. This…

Let $M$ be a smooth manifold and $X\subset M$ a closed subset of $M$. In this paper, we introduce a natural condition of \emph{moderate growth} along $X$ for a distribution $t$ in $\mathcal{D}^\prime(M\setminus X)$ and prove that this…

Let $f\colon X\to Y$ be a semistable fibration between smooth complex varieties of dimension $n$ and $m$. This paper contains an analysis of the local systems of de Rham closed relative one forms and top forms on the fibers. In particular…

For Hermitian connections on a Hermitian complex line bundle over a Riemannian manifold $(X,g)$, we can define the ``volume", which can be considered to be the ``mirror" of the standard volume for submanifolds. We call the critical points…

In this paper we prove that the space $\cM(n,\rv,D,\Lambda):=\{(M^n,g) \text{ closed }: ~~\Ric\ge -(n-1),~\Vol(M)\ge \rv>0, \diam(M)\le D \text{ and } \int_{M}|\Rm|^{n/2}\le \Lambda\}$ has at most $C(n,\rv,D,\Lambda)$ many diffeomorphism…

Let $M$ and $N$ be Riemannian symmetric spaces and $f:M\to N$ be a parallel isometric immersion. We additionally assume that there exist simply connected, irreducible Riemannian symmetric spaces $M_i$ with $\dim(M_i)\geq 2$ for $i=1,...,r$…

In this paper, we introduce restricted products for families of locally convex spaces and formulate criteria ensuring that mappings into such products are continuous or smooth. As a special case, can define restricted products of weighted…
