While the exotic diffeomorphisms turned out to be very rich, we know much less about the $b^+_2 =2$ case, as parameterized gauge-theoretic invariants are not well defined. In this paper we present a method (that is, comparing the winding…

Work of numerous authors has shown that any smooth, orientable, closed 4-manifold may be described as a loop of Morse functions on a surface, a loop in the cut complex, a loop in the pants complex, or as a multisection. In this paper, we…

A Morse-Bott volume form on a manifold is a top-degree form which vanishes along a non-degenerate critical submanifold. We prove that two such forms are diffeomorphic (by a diffeomorphism fixed on the submanifold) provided that their…

A pitchfork bifurcation of an $(m-1)$-dimensional invariant submanifold of a dynamical system in $\mathbb{R}^m$ is defined analogous to that in $\mathbb{R}$. Sufficient conditions for such a bifurcation to occur are stated and existence of…

We investigate (uniform) mean ergodicity of weighted composition operators on the space of smooth functions and the space of distributions, both over an open subset of the real line. Among other things, we prove that a composition operator…

For every diffeomorphism $\varphi:M\to N$ between 3--dimensional Riemannian manifolds $M$ and $N$ there are in general locally two 2--dimensional distributions $D_{\pm}$ such that $\varphi$ is conformal on both of them. We state necessary…

Let M be a closed orientable irreducible 3-manifold, and let f be a diffeomorphism over M. We call an embedded 2-torus T an Anosov torus if it is invariant and the induced action of f over \pi_1(T) is hyperbolic. We prove that only few…

We consider ergodic $\mathrm{Sym}(\mathbb{N})$-invariant probability measures on the space of $L$-structures with domain $\mathbb{N}$ (for $L$ a countable relational language), and call such a measure a properly ergodic structure when no…

Let $G$ be a Lie group and let $M$ be a proper smooth $G$-manifold. If $M$ is connected and $\dim(M)\geq 2$, the group of diffeomorphisms of $M$, that are isotopic to the identity through a compactly supported isotopy, acts $n$-transitively…

Every cohomology ring isomorphism between two non-singular complete toric varieties and quasitoric manifolds, respectively, with second Betti number $2$ is realizable by a diffeomorphism and homeomorphism, respectively.

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,…

In this paper we show that even in the case of simply connected minimal algebraic surfaces of general type, deformation and differentiable equivalence do not coincide. Exhibiting several simple families of surfaces which are not deformation…

We describe interrelations between a topology structure of closed manifolds (orientable and non-orientable) of the dimension $n\geq 4$ and the structure of the non-wandering set of regular homeomorphisms, in particular, Morse-Smale…

Let $\nu$ be a probability measure that is ergodic under the endomorphism $(\times p, \times p)$ of the torus $\mathbb{T}^2$, such that $\dim \pi \mu < \dim \mu$ for some non-principal projection $\pi$. We show that, if both $m\neq n$ are…

If $\pi:(X,T)\to(Z,S)$ is a topological factor map between uniquely ergodic topological dynamical systems, then $(X,T)$ is called an isomorphic extension of $(Z,S)$ if $\pi$ is also a measure-theoretic isomorphism. We consider the case when…

In two previous papers with Yi-Jen Lee, we defined and computed a notion of Reidemeister torsion for the Morse theory of closed 1-forms on a finite dimensional manifold. The present paper gives an a priori proof that this Morse theory…

We develop the theory of orbibundles from a geometrical viewpoint using diffeology. One of our goals is to present new tools allowing to calculate invariants of complex hyperbolic disc orbibundles over $2$-orbifolds appearing in the…

An ergodic support $X_0$ of a dynamical system $(X,T)$ with metrizable compact phase space $X$ is the set of all points $x\in X$ such that the corresponding sequence of empirical measures $\delta_{x,n} = (\delta_x +\delta_{Tx}+\dots…

This paper studies ergodic properties of certain measures arising in the dynamics of holomorphic correspondences. These measures, in general, are not invariant in the classical sense of ergodic theory. We define a notion of ergodicity, and…

Quasi-Anosov diffeomorphism is a kind of important dynamical system due to R. Mane 1970s. In this paper, we present a criterion for such dynamics using ergodic theory.
