We exhibit a pseudogroup of smooth local transformations of the real line which is compactly generated, but not realizable as the holonomy pseudogroup of a foliation of codimension 1 on a compact manifold. The proof relies on a description…

We study codimension one holomorphic foliations on complex projective spaces and compact manifolds under the assumption that the foliation has a projective transverse structure in the complement of some invariant codimension one analytic…

In this work we consider foliations of compact manifolds whose holonomy pseudo-group is expansive, and analyze their number of compact leaves. Our main result is that in the codimension-one case this number is at most finite, and we give…

We give a complete list of the one-dimensional groups definable in algebraically closed valued fields and i the pseudo-local fields, up to a finite index subgroup and a quotient by a finite subgroup.

A multiplicatively closed, horizontal foliation on a Lie groupoid may be viewed as a "pseudoaction" on the base manifold $M$. A pseudoaction generates a pseudogroup of transformations of $M$ in the same way an ordinary Lie group action…

We show that the entropy of a finitely generated pseudogroup (resp., of a foliation of a compact Riemannian manifold) can be calculated by suitable counting separated pseudo-orbits (resp., pseudoleaves).

Piecewise Euclidean structures (identified solid Euclidean polyhedra) on topological 3-dimensional manifolds and pseudo-manifolds are constructed so that they admit pseudo-foliations, a generalized type of foliation. The construction of…

The group of diffeomorphisms commuting with an elliptic operator on a manifold is a compact Lie group under Compact-Open topology. In foliation theory, pseudogroup is introduced by Sacksteder. The pseudogroup of local transformations…

This paper deals with codimension one (may be singular) foliations on compact K\"alher manifolds whose conormal bundle is assumed to be pseudo-effective. Using currents with minimal singularities, we show that one can endow the space of…

In this paper we give a characterization of the possible homology groups that can occur for compact simply connected cohomogeneity one manifolds in dimensions seven and lower.

In a recent paper by M. Mantoiu and M. Ruzhansky, a global pseudo-differential calculus has been developed for unimodular groups of type I. In the present article we generalize the main results to arbitrary locally compact groups of type I.…

We determine the algebraic structure of the multiplicative loops for locally compact $2$-dimensional topological connected quasifields. In particular, our attention turns to multiplicative loops which have either a normal subloop of…

Pseudo-automorphisms are birational transformations acting as regular automorphisms in codimension 1. We import ideas from geometric group theory to prove that a group of birational transformations that satisfies a fixed point property on…

A holomorphic foliation $\mathscr{F}$ on a compact complex manifold $M$ is said to be an $\mathscr{L}$-foliation if there exists an action of a complex Lie group $G$ such that the generic leaf of $\mathscr{F}$ coincides with the generic…

It is shown that a closed solvable subgroup of a connected Lie group is compactly generated. In particular, every discrete solvable subgroup of a connected Lie group is finitely generated. Generalizations to locally compact groups are…

Generically an almost complex structure has no symmetries at all, but there exist symmetric structures. In this paper we describe how to guarantee that the pseudogroup of local symmetries is small (finite-dimensional). It will be indicated…

We construct 2-dimensional CAT(-1) groups which contain free subgroups with arbitrary iterated exponential distortion, and with distortion higher than any iterated exponential.

In this paper, we recall Quillen's plus construction for high-dimensional smooth manifolds and the solution to the group extension problem. We then develop a geometric procedure due for producing a "reverse" to the plus construction, a…

We give a way to construct group of pseudo-automorphisms of rational varieties of any dimension that fix pointwise the image of a cubic hypersurface of $P^n. These group are free products of involutions, and most of their elements have…

We conjecture that the automorphism group of a topological parallelism on real projective 3-space is compact. We prove that at least the identity component of this group is, indeed, compact.
