The Chabauty space of a topological group is the set of its closed subgroups, endowed with a natural topology. As soon as $n>2$, the Chabauty space of $R^n$ has a rather intricate topology and is not a manifold. By an investigation of its…

In this work we present the concept of amenable $C$-semianalytic subset of a real analytic manifold $M$ and study the main properties of this type of sets. Amenable $C$-semianalytic sets can be understood as globally defined semianalytic…

If $R$ is a real analytic set in $\C^n$ (viewed as $\R^{2n}$), then for any point $p\in R$ there is a uniquely defined germ $X_p$ of the smallest complex analytic variety which contains $R_p$, the germ of $R$ at $p$. It is shown that if $R$…

A topological group $G$ is said to have a local $\omega^\omega$-base if the neighbourhood system at identity admits a monotone cofinal map from the directed set $\omega^\omega$. In particular, every metrizable group is such, but the class…

These notes constitute a survey on the geometric properties of globally subanalytic sets. We start with their definition and some fundamental results such as Gabrielov's Complement Theorem or existence of cell decompositions. We then give…

We show that, given a compact Hausdorff space $\Omega$, there is a compact group ${\mathbb G}$ and a homeomorphic embedding of $\Omega$ into ${\mathbb G}$, such that the restriction map ${\rm A}({\mathbb G})\to C(\Omega)$ is a complete…

We prove the removable singularity theorem for nonlocal minimal graphs. Specifically, we show that any nonlocal minimal graph in $\Omega \setminus K$, where $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is an open set and $K \subset \Omega$ is a compact…

A graph $\Gamma$ labelled by a set $S$ defines a group $G(\Gamma)$ whose generators are the set of labels $S$ and whose relations are all words which can be read on closed paths of this graph. We introduce the notion of aspherical graph and…

We prove that any complex or real analytic set or function germ is topologically equivalent to a germ defined by polynomial equations whose coefficients are algebraic numbers.

In 1957 Cartan proved his celebrated Theorem B and deduced that if $\Omega\subset{\mathbb R}^n$ is an open set and $X$ is a coherent real analytic subset of $\Omega$, then $X$ has the analytic extension property: Each real analytic function…

Let G be a semi-simple algebraic group over a finitely generated field K of characteristic zero, and let \Gamma < G(K) be a finitely generated Zariski-dense subgroup. In this note we prove that the set of K-generic elements of \Gamma (whose…

For a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^m, m\geq 2,$ of class $C^0$, the properties are studied of fields of `good directions', that is the directions with respect to which $\partial\Omega$ can be locally represented as the graph of a…

In a previous article about the homogenization of the classical problem of diff usion in a bounded domain with su ciently smooth boundary we proved that the error is of order $\epsilon^{1/2}$. Now, for an open set with su ciently smooth…

We study the holomorphic/meromorphic function theory and the fundamental group of Euclidean open neighborhoods of compact subvarieties in homogeneous spaces; building on results of Hironaka, Hartshorne, Napier and Ramachandran in the ample…

We prove a sandwiching lemma for inner-exact locally compact Hausdorff \'etale groupoids. Our lemma says that every ideal of the reduced $C^*$-algebra of such a groupoid is sandwiched between the ideals associated to two uniquely defined…

In answer to a question on Mathoverflow we show that the Boolean algebra $\mathcal{P}(\omega)/\mathit{fin}$ contains a family $\{\mathcal{B}_X:X\subseteq\mathfrak{c}\}$ of subalgebras with the property that $X\subseteq Y$ implies…

We prove analogues for Cartan geometries of Gromov's major theorems on automorphisms of rigid geometric structures. The starting point is a Frobenius theorem, which says that infinitesimal automorphisms of sufficiently high order integrate…

The purpose of this paper is to prove a new general result about rings of complex analytic functions. Let $\Omega$ be an arbitrary nonempty open subset of the complex plane $\mathbb C$, $\mathcal{A}(\Omega)$ be the set of holomorphic…

Cartan-Thullen theorem is a basic one in the theory of analytic functions of several complex variables. It states that for any open set $U$ of ${\mathbb C}^k$, the following conditions are equivalent: (a) $U$ is a domain of existence, (b)…

We prove some $\ell$-independence results on local constancy of \'etale cohomology of rigid analytic varieties. As a result, we show that a closed subscheme of a proper scheme over an algebraically closed complete non-archimedean field has…
