A morphism of a category which is simultaneously an epimorphism and a monomorphism is called a bimorphism. In \cite{DR2} we gave characterizations of monomorphisms (resp. epimorphisms) in arbitrary pro-categories, pro-(C), where (C) has…

In this note, we reconcile two approaches that have been used to construct stringy multiplications. The pushing forward after pulling back that has been used to give a global stringy extension of the functors K_0,K^{top},A^*,H^* [CR, FG,…

This note announces a general construction of characteristic currents for singular connections on a vector bundle. It develops, in particular, a Chern-Weil-Simons theory for smooth bundle maps $\alpha : E \rightarrow F$ which, for smooth…

Every Thurston map $f\colon S^2\rightarrow S^2$ on a $2$-sphere $S^2$ induces a pull-back operation on Jordan curves $\alpha\subset S^2\setminus P_f$, where $P_f$ is the postcritical set of $f$. Here the isotopy class $[f^{-1}(\alpha)]$…

We establish the Thom isomorphism in twisted K-theory for any real vector bundle and develop the push-forward map in twisted K-theory for any differentiable proper map $f: X\to Y$ (not necessarily K-oriented). The push-forward map…

We investigate homeomorphisms of a compact interval, applied randomly. We consider this system as a skew product with the two-sided Bernoulli shift in the base. If on the open interval there is a metric in which almost all maps are…

Let M be a smooth connected compact surface, P be either the real line R^1 or the circle S^1, and f:M-->P be a smooth mapping. In a previous series of papers for the case when f is a Morse map the author calculated the homotopy types of…

Under a natural assumption on the dynamical degrees, we prove that the Green currents associated to any H\'enon-like map in any dimension have H\"older continuous super-potentials, i.e., give H\"older continuous linear functionals on…

The open descendants of simple current automorphism invariants are constructed. We consider the case where the order of the current is two or odd. We prove that our solutions satisfy the completeness conditions, positivity and integrality…

Let $f : X \rightarrow Y$ be a genuinely ramified map between irreducible smooth projective curves defined over an algebraically closed field. Let $P$ be a branch data on $Y$ such that $P(y)$ and $B_f(y)$ where $B_f$ is branch data for $f$…

An expansive, monotone operator is dominating; if it is also idempotent it is a closure operator. Although they have distinct properties, these two kinds of discrete operators are also intertwined. Every closure operator is dominating;…

We prove that if a mapping F:X to Y, where X and Y are Banach spaces, is metrically regular at x for y and its inverse F^{-1} is convex and closed valued locally around (x,y), then for any function G:X to Y with lip G(x)regF(x|y)) < 1, the…

In 2000, Ambrosio and Kirchheim, with the paper "Currents in metric spaces", settled the foundations of a theory of currents on metric spaces and used it to pose and solve Plateau's problem in a wide class of Banach spaces. Following an…

Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold of dimension $n.$ Let $T$ and $S$ be two positive closed currents on $X$ of bidegree $(p,p)$ and $(q,q)$ respectively with $p+q\le n.$ Assume that $T$ has a continuous super-potential. We prove that…

For a closed, spin, odd dimensional Riemannian manifold $(Y,g)$, we define the rho invariant $\rho_{spin}(Y,E,H, g)$ for the twisted Dirac operator $D^E_H$ on $Y$, acting on sections of a flat hermitian vector bundle $E$ over $Y$, where $H…

We introduce the concept of F-decomposable systems, well-ordered inverse systems of Hausdorff compacta with fully closed bonding mappings. A continuous mapping between Hausdorff compacta is called fully closed if the intersection of the…

The goal of this article is two fold. Firstly, we explore the dynamics of a semigroup of polynomial automorphisms of $\mathbb{C}^2$, generated by a finite collection of H\'enon maps. In particular, we construct the positive and negative…

We introduce the metric fundamental class for metric spaces that are homeomorphic to compact, non-orientable, smooth manifolds with (possibly empty) boundary. This is an integer rectifiable current that provides an analytic representation…

Given a holomorphic selfmap f of the complex projective plane of algebraic degree at least 2, we give sufficient conditions on a positive closed (1,1) current S of unit mass under which the normalized pullbacks of S under iterates of f…

We study the preservation of semisimplicity for holonomic D-modules with respect to the direct and inverse image of mainly finite maps $\pi : X \to Y$ of smooth varieties. A natural filtration of the direct image $\pi_+({\mathcal O}_X)$ is…
