We study the infinitesimal rigidity of equivariant minimal maps from the universal cover of a smooth oriented surface (possibly non-compact) into a Riemannian symmetric space, focusing on representations arising from cyclic harmonic…

Let $\beta>1$ be a non-integer. First we show that Lebesgue almost every number has a $\beta$-expansion of a given frequency if and only if Lebesgue almost every number has infinitely many $\beta$-expansions of the same given frequency.…

This study uses the ideas of \cite{Rieffel} to provide the dual of $L^1(\mu,X)$ in the positive and $\sigma-$ finite cases. This results in elegant necessary and sufficient criteria for weak compactness in $L^1(S,\mu,X)$ in the…

Let $n \in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 3}$ be given. We prove Lebesgue-almost everywhere pointwise inversion formulae for the Siegel transforms in the geometry of numbers. These inversion formulae are quite general; for instance, they are valid for…

Suppose that $(M,\mathfrak{g})$ is a compact Riemannian manifold with strictly negative sectional curvatures. A subset of conjugacy classes $E \subset \text{conj}(\pi_1(M))$ is called spectrally rigid if when two negatively curved…

In this paper, we show that simple, thick negatively curved two-dimensional P-manifolds, a large class of surface amalgams, are marked length spectrum rigid. That is, if two piecewise negatively curved Riemannian metrics (satisfying certain…

We consider families of transformations in multidimensional Riemannian manifolds with non-uniformly expanding behavior. We give sufficient conditions for the continuous variation (in the $L^1$-norm) of the densities of absolutely continuous…

If $(G,K)$ is a Gelfand pair, with $G$ a Lie group of polynomial growth and $K$ a compact subgroup of $G$, the Gelfand spectrum $\Sigma$ of the bi-$K$-invariant algebra $L^1(K\backslash G/K)$ admits natural embeddings into ${\mathbb R}^n$…

In this paper we introduce and explore the notion of rigidity group, associated with a collection of finitely many sequences, and show that this concept has many, somewhat surprising characterizations of algebraic, spectral, and unitary…

In this note, we extend results about unique $n^{\textrm{th}}$ roots and cancellation of finite disconnected graphs with respect to the Cartesian, the strong and the direct product, to the rooted hierarchical products, and to a modified…

We consider special flows over the rotation on the circle by an irrational $\alpha$ under roof functions of bounded variation. The roof functions, in the Lebesgue decomposition, are assumed to have a continuous singular part coming from a…

In the study of holomorphic maps, the term "rigidity" refers to certain types of results that give us very specific information about a general class of holomorphic maps owing to the geometry of their domains or target spaces. Under this…

The notion of weak tiling played a key role in the proof of Fuglede's spectral set conjecture for convex domains, due to the fact that every spectral set must weakly tile its complement. In this paper, we revisit the notion of weak tiling…

This work investigates the existence of complex structures on 2-step nilpotent Lie algebras arising from finite graphs. We introduce the notion of adapted complex structure, namely a complex structure that maps vertices and edges of the…

An $(\alpha,\beta)$-spanner of a weighted graph $G=(V,E)$, is a subgraph $H$ such that for every $u,v\in V$, $d_G(u,v) \le d_H(u,v)\le\alpha\cdot d_G(u,v)+\beta$. The main parameters of interest for spanners are their size (number of edges)…

In this paper we consider flat metrics (semi-translation structures) on surfaces of finite type. There are two main results. The first is a complete description of when a set of simple closed curves is spectrally rigid, that is, when the…

We build a new spectrum of recursive models (SRM(T)) of a strongly minimal theory. This theory is non-disintegrated, flat, model complete, and in a language with a finite signature.

Let $\varphi$ be a function in the complex Sobolev space $W^*(U)$, where $U$ is an open subset in $\mathbb{C}^k$. We show that the complement of the set of Lebesgue points of $\varphi$ is pluripolar. The key ingredient in our approach is to…

Fix a translation surface $X$, and consider the measures on $X$ coming from averaging the uniform measures on all the saddle connections of length at most $R$. Then as $R\to\infty$, the weak limit of these measures exists and is equal to…

We consider compact locally symmetric spaces $\Gamma\backslash G/H$ where $G/H$ is a non-compact semisimple symmetric space and $\Gamma$ is a discrete subgroup of $G$. We discuss some features of the joint spectrum of the (commutative)…
