We compute the quotient of the self-duality equation for conformal metrics by the action of the diffeomorphism group. We also determine Hilbert polynomial, counting the number of independent scalar differential invariants depending on the…
For a differential field $F$ having an algebraically closed field of constants, we analyze the structure of Picard-Vessiot extensions of $F$ whose differential Galois groups are unipotent algebraic groups and apply these results to study…
In this work we study analytic Levi-flat hypersurfaces in complex algebraic surfaces. First, we show that if this foliation admits chaotic dynamics (i.e. if it does not admit a transverse invariant measure), then the connected components of…
We study numerical invariants associated with the reduction of singularities of holomorphic foliation germs on $(\mathbb{C}^2, 0)$. Building on our previous work on generalized curve foliations, we extend explicit formulas for several…
In this article we describe relations of the topology of closed 1-forms to the group theoretic invariants of Bieri-Neumann-Strebel-Renz. Starting with a survey, we extend these Sigma invariants to finite CW- complexes and show that many…
We construct explicitly a class of coboundary Poisson-Lie structures on the group of formal diffeomorphisms of ${\Bbb R}^n$. Equivalently, these give rise to a class of coboundary triangular Lie bialgebra structures on the Lie algebra $W_n$…
We find conditions which ensure that the topological complexity of a closed manifold $M$ with abelian fundamental group is nonmaximal, and see through examples that our conditions are sharp. This generalizes results of Costa and Farber on…
This is a note in which we first review symmetries of moduli spaces of stable meromorphic connections on trivial vector bundles over the Riemann sphere, and next discuss symmetries of their integrable deformations as an application. In the…
We consider certain groups of tree automorphisms as so-called diffeological groups. The notion of diffeology, due to Souriau, allows to endow non-manifold topological spaces, such as regular trees that we look at, with a kind of a…
A singular foliation is a partition of a manifold into leaves of perhaps varying dimension. Stefan and Sussmann carried out fundamental work on singular foliations in the 1970s. We survey their contributions, show how diffeological objects…
Based on the recent developments in the irregular Riemann-Hilbert correspondence for holonomic D-modules and the Fourier-Sato transforms for enhanced ind-sheaves, we study the Fourier transforms of some irregular holonomic D-modules. For…
In this note, we address the following question: Which 1-formal groups occur as fundamental groups of both quasi-K\"ahler manifolds and closed, connected, orientable 3-manifolds. We classify all such groups, at the level of Malcev…
This paper investigates conditions under which a given automorphism of a residually torsion-free nilpotent group respects some ordering of the group. For free groups and surface groups, this has relevance to ordering the fundamental groups…
We prove that foliations on the projective plane admitting a Liouvillian first integral but not admitting a rational first integral always have invariant algebraic curves of degree bounded by a function of the degree of the foliation. We…
We study Lie foliations on compact manifolds whose transverse group is \emph{metabelian} (a natural generalization of the affine group $\GA$ considered in earlier work). We establish a complete classification of $\GA$-Lie foliations in…
For r at least 3, p at least 2, we classify all actions of the groups Diff^r_c(R) and Diff^r_+(S1) by C^p -diffeomorphisms on the line and on the circle. This is the same as describing all nontrivial group homomorphisms between groups of…
We review the standard Hopf construction of Reeb components with leafwise complex structure and almost determine the group of leafwise holomorphic smooth automorphisms for Reeb components of certain type in the case of complex leaf…
We give a new proof that compact infra-solvmanifolds with isomorphic fundamental groups are smoothly diffeomorphic. More generally, we prove rigidity results for manifolds which are constructed using affine actions of virtually polycyclic…
We classify all non-degenerate skew-hermitian forms defined over certain local rings, not necessarily commutative, and study some of the fundamental properties of the associated unitary groups, including their orders when the ring in…
A classification of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms on 3-dimensional manifolds with (virtually) solvable fundamental group is obtained. If such a diffeomorphism does not admit a periodic attracting or repelling two-dimensional torus,…
