A class of piecewise affine hyperbolic maps on a bounded subset of the plane is considered. It is shown that if a map from this class is sufficiently area-expanding then almost surely this map has an absolutely continuous invariant measure.

We study affine maps between affine manifolds. Even when the fibers are compact and diffeomorphic, two of them can inherit different affine structures from the source space. This leads to a fixed linear holonomy deformation theory of the…

Let G be a reductive algebraic group and let H be a reductive subgroup of G. We describe all pairs (G,H) such that for any affine G-variety X with a dense G-orbit isomorphic to G/H the number of G-orbits in X is finite. The maximal number…

We study equivariant affine embeddings of homogeneous spaces and their equivariant automorphisms. An example of a quasiaffine, but not affine, homogeneous space with finitely many equivariant automorphisms is presented. We prove the…

This paper has been inspired by ideas presented by V. V. Kozlov in his works [19, 20]. In this paper our goal is to carry out a thorough analysis of some geometric problems of the dynamics of affinely-rigid bodies. We present two ways to…

We study the affine quasi-Einstein Equation for homogeneous surfaces. This gives rise through the modified Riemannian extension to new half conformally flat generalized quasi-Einstein neutral signature $(2,2)$ manifolds, to conformally…

We present a method to compute the group of affine transformations of a homogeneous $G$-space under specific conditions: when the group $G$ and the homogeneous $G$-space admit linear connections so that the natural projection is affine, and…

The complexity of an action of a reductive algebraic group G on an algebraic variety X is the codimension of a generic B-orbit in X, where B is a Borel subgroup of G. We classify affine homogeneous spaces G/H of complexity one. These…

In connection with Rokhlin's question on an automorphism with a homogeneous nonsimple spectrum, we indicate a class of measure-preserving maps $T$ such that $T\times T$ has a homogeneous spectrum of multiplicity 2. The automorphisms in…

A locally compact stable plane of positive topological dimension will be called semiaffine if for every line $L$ and every point $p$ not in $L$ there is at most one line passing through $p$ and disjoint from $L$. We show that then the plane…

We provide a reduction in the classification problem for non-compact, homogeneous, Einstein manifolds. Using this work, we verify the (Generalized) Alekseevskii Conjecture for a large class of homogeneous spaces.

For any subgroup of $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb{R})\ltimes\mathbb{R}^3$ obtained by adding a translation part to a subgroup of $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb{R})$ which is the fundamental group of a finite-volume convex projective surface, we first show…

A subset $X$ of an Abelian group $G$ is called $semiaf\!fine$ if for every $x,y,z\in X$ the set $\{x+y-z,x-y+z\}$ intersects $X$. We prove that a subset $X$ of an Abelian group $G$ is semiaffine if and only if one of the following…

We present various results on the equivalence and mapping properties under affine transformations of fractional-order Sobolev norms and semi-norms of orders between zero and one. Main results are mutual estimates of the three semi-norms of…

We prove that every smooth subelliptic variety admits a surjective morphism from an affine space. This result gives partial answers to the questions of Arzhantsev and Forstneri\v{c}. As an application, we characterize open images of…

We study proper holomorphic maps of annuli in complex Euclidean spaces, that is, domains with $U(n)$ as the automorphism group. By the Hartogs phenomenon and a result of Forstneri\v{c}, such maps are always rational and extend to proper…

In a recent paper, it was claimed that any homogeneous Finsler space of odd dimension admits a homogeneous geodesic through any point. For the proof, the algebraic method dealing with the reductive decomposition of the Lie algebra of the…

Let K be a self-similar or self-affine set in R^d, let \mu be a self-similar or self-affine measure on it, and let G be the group of affine maps, similitudes, isometries or translations of R^d. Under various assumptions (such as separation…

We consider the problem of quantization of smooth symplectic varieties in the algebro-geometric setting. We show that, under appropriate cohomological assumptions, the Fedosov quantization procedure goes through with minimal changes. The…

In this paper, we study affine transformations on tori, nilmanifolds and compact abelian groups. For these systems, we show that an equivalent condition for zero entropy is the orbit closure of each point has a nice structure. To be…
