Let $M$ be an $m$-dimensional differentiable manifold with a nontrivial circle action ${\mathcal S}= {\lbrace S_t \rbrace}_{t \in\RR}, S_{t+1}=S_t$, preserving a smooth volume $\mu$. For any Liouville number $\a$ we construct a sequence of…
The main purpose of this paper is to show that ideas of deformation theory can be applied to "infinite dimensional geometry". We develop the deformation theory of Brody curves. Brody curve is a kind of holomorphic map from the complex plane…
The method of boundary curve reparametrization is applied to construction of the approximate analytical conformal mapping of the unit disk onto an arbitrary given finite domain with a boundary smooth at every point but fininte number of…
Let $\Sigma$ be a compact surface equipped with an area form. There is an long standing open question by Katok, which, in particular, asks whether every entropy-zero Hamiltonian diffeomorphism of a surface lies in the $C^0$-closure of the…
We determine the bounded cohomology of the group of homeomorphisms of certain low-dimensional manifolds. In particular, for the group of orientation-preserving homeomorphisms of the circle and of the closed 2-disc, it is isomorphic to the…
We prove that for a dynamical system on an algebraic variety over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$ generated by finitely many unramified endomorphisms, it is decidable whether a given point has a finite orbit. This is achieved by establishing an…
We show that there exist infinite-dimensional quasi-flats in the compactly supported Hamiltonian diffeomorphism group of the Liouville domain, with respect to the spectral norm, if and only if the symplectic cohomology of this Liouville…
We construct combinatorial volume forms of hyperbolic three manifolds fibering over the circle. These forms define non-trivial classes in bounded cohomology. After introducing a new seminorm on exact bounded cohomology, we use these…
We prove a topological rigidity theorem for closed hypersurfaces of the Euclidean sphere and of an elliptic space form. It asserts that, under a lower bound hypothesis on the absolute value of the principal curvatures, the hypersurface is…
We prove a non-squeezing result for infinite-dimensional Hamiltonian flows using non-standard model theory. For this we prove the existence of a corresponding family of pseudoholomorphic spheres and characterize the maximal time in terms of…
By adapting the near-degenerate regime designed by Kahn, Lyubich, and D. Dudko, we prove that the boundaries of Herman rings with bounded type rotation number and of the simplest configuration are quasicircles with dilatation depending only…
An embedding of the group $\Diff(S^{1})$ of orientation preserving diffeomorphims of the unit circle $S^1$ into an infinite-dimensional symplectic group, $\Sp(\infty)$, is studied. The authors prove that this embedding is not surjective. A…
We prove a new variant of the energy-capacity inequality for closed rational symplectic manifolds (as well as certain open manifolds such as cotangent bundle of closed manifolds...) and we derive some consequences to C^0-symplectic…
Let P be a locally finite disk pattern on the complex plane C whose combinatorics are described by the one-skeleton G of a triangulation of the open topological disk and whose dihedral angles are equal to a function \Theta:E\to [0,\pi/2] on…
We extend the pseudoholomorphic curve methods from Floer theory to infinite-dimensional phase spaces and use our results to prove the existence of a forced time-periodic solution to a general Hamiltonian PDE with regularizing nonlinearity.…
Consider a homeomorphism h of the closed annulus S^1*[0,1], isotopic to the identity, such that the rotation set of h is reduced to a single irrational number alpha (we say that h is an irrational pseudo-rotation). For every positive…
We prove the strong $C^\infty$ closing property, as formulated by Irie, for a class of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms which includes all pseudo-rotations of projective spaces as well as all Anosov-Katok pseudo-rotations.
In this article, we study the Hamiltonian dynamics on singular symplectic manifolds and prove the Arnold conjecture for a large class of $b^m$-symplectic manifolds. Novel techniques are introduced to associate smooth symplectic forms to the…
We construct analytic symplectomorphisms of the cylinder or the sphere with zero or exactly two periodic points and which are not conjugated to a rotation. In the case of the cylinder, we show that these symplectomorphisms can be chosen…
The diffeomorphism symmetry of general relativity leads in the canonical formulation to constraints, which encode the dynamics of the theory. These constraints satisfy a complicated algebra, known as Dirac's hypersurface deformation…
