This is a systematic exposition of recent results which completely describe the group of automorphisms and the group of autoequivalences of generic analytic K3 surfaces. These groups, hard to determine in the algebraic case, admit a good…

Using the canonical JSJ splitting, we describe the outer automorphism group $\Out(G)$ of a one-ended word hyperbolic group $G$. In particular, we discuss to what extent $\Out(G)$ is virtually a direct product of mapping class groups and a…

We prove an extension of Milnor-Wood inequalities to a geometric situation. We study representations of the fundamental group of a compact manifold into the isometry group of a product of rank one spaces of the same dimension and show an…

We consider random walks on the mapping class group that have finite first moment with respect to the word metric, whose support generates a non-elementary subgroup and contains a pseudo-Anosov map whose invariant Teichmuller geodesic is in…

In this paper we are concerned with singular points of solutions to the {\it unstable} free boundary problem $$ \Delta u = - \chi_{\{u>0\}} \qquad \hbox{in} B_1. $$ The problem arises in applications such as solid combustion, composite…

Let $f:X\to C$ be a family of semistable K3 surfaces with non-empty set $S$ of singular fibres having infinite local monodromy. Then, when the so called Arakelov-Yau inequality reaches equality, we prove that $C\setminus S$ is a modular…

The first author introduced a notion of equivalence on a family of $3$-manifolds with boundary, called (simple) balanced $3$-manifolds in an earlier paper and discussed the analogy between the Andrews-Curtis equivalence for group…

We prove a conjecture of Hutchings and Lee relating the Seiberg-Witten invariants of a closed 3-manifold X with b_1 > 0 to an invariant that `counts' gradient flow lines--including closed orbits--of a circle-valued Morse function on the…

We consider a connected negative definite plumbing graph, and we assume that the associated plumbed 3-manifold is a rational homology sphere. We provide two new combinatorial formulae for the Seiberg-Witten invariant of this manifold. The…

In this paper we focused our study on Derived From Anosov diffeomorphisms (DA diffeomorphisms ) of the torus $\mathbb{T}^3,$ it is, an absolute partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism on $\mathbb{T}^3$ homotopic to an Anosov linear automorphism…

Let $K/F$ be a finite Galois extension of number fields. It is well known that the Tchebotarev density theorem implies that an irreducible, finitely ramified $p$-adic representation $\rho$ of the absolute Galois group of $K$ is determined…

The special linear groups, the mapping class groups of surfaces, the outer autormorphism groups of free groups appear in numerous domains. Their analogies, developped in particular in K. Vogtmann's work, have been written about a lot. In…

We prove the existence of radial self-similar singular solutions for the mass supercritical Nonlinear Schr\"odinger Equation far from the critical regime and, more generally, branches of such solutions for the Complex Ginzburg-Landau…

We show that every entire solution to the Bernoulli (or one-phase) free boundary problem with finite Morse index in $\mathbb{R}^3$ is axially symmetric. In fact, we additionally prove that the same result would follow in any dimension $4…

Given a closed hyperbolic 3-manifold M with a quasigeodesic flow we construct a \pi_1-equivariant sphere-filling curve in the boundary of hyperbolic space. Specifically, we show that any complete transversal P to the lifted flow on H^3 has…

We study the behavior of hyperbolic affine automorphisms of a translation surface which is infinite in area and genus that is obtained as a limit of surfaces built from regular polygons studied by Veech. We find that hyperbolic affine…

Let R a be countable ergodic equivalence relation of type II_1 on a standard probability space (X,m). The group Out(R) of outer automorphisms of R consists of all invertible Borel measure preserving maps of the space which map R-classes to…

This is the second in a series of papers studying the relationship between Rohlin's theorem and gauge theory. We discuss an invariant of a homology S^1 cross S^3 defined by Furuta and Ohta as an analogue of Casson's invariant for homology…

We study index theory for manifolds with Baas-Sullivan singularities using geometric K-homology with coefficients in a unital C*-algebra. In particular, we define a natural analog of the Baum-Connes assembly map for a torsion-free discrete…

We develop the idea of self-indexing and the technology of gradient-like vector fields in the setting of Morse theory on a complex algebraic stratification. Our main result is the local existence, near a Morse critical point, of…
