Rationally convex topological embeddings of compact surfaces (closed or with boundary) into $\mathbb{C}^2$ are constructed.
In this paper, we define $C^1$-robust transitivity for actions of $\RR^2$ on closed connected orientable manifolds. We prove that if the ambient manifold is three dimensional and the dense orbit of a robustly transitive action is not…
We study diffeomorphisms of compact, oriented surfaces, developing methods of distinguishing those which have positive factorizations into Dehn twists from those which satisfy the weaker condition of right veering. We use these to construct…
In this paper, we prove that on any contact manifold, there exists an arbitrary C^{\infty}-small contactomorphism which does not admit a square root. In particular, there exists an arbitrary C^{\infty}-small contactomorphism which is not…
We give explicit $C^1$-open conditions that ensure that a diffeomorphism possesses a nonhyperbolic ergodic measure with positive entropy. Actually, our criterion provides the existence of a partially hyperbolic compact set with…
We construct a smooth rational affine surface S with finite automorphism group but with the property that the group of automorphisms of the cylinder SxA^2 acts infinitely transitively on the complement of a closed subset of codimension at…
We prove that $n$-sphere $\mathbb{S}^n$, $n\geq 2$, admits structurally stable diffeomorphisms $\mathbb{S}^n\to\mathbb{S}^n$ with non-orientable expanding attractors of any topological dimension $d\in\{1,\ldots,[\frac{n}{2}]\}$ where $[x]$…
We construct explicit examples of geodesics in the mapping class group and show that the shadow of a geodesic in mapping class group to the curve graph does not have to be a quasi-geodesic. We also show that the quasi-axis of a…
On every compact 3-manifold, we build a non-empty open set $\cU$ of $\Diff^1(M)$ such that, for every $r\geq 1$, every $C^r$-generic diffeomorphism $f\in\cU\cap \Diff^r(M)$ has no topological attractors. On higher dimensional manifolds, one…
We prove the conjecture of F. Rodriguez Hertz and J. Rodriguez Hertz (2006) that every nontrivial transitive expansive attractor of a homeomorphism of a compact surface is a derived from pseudo-Anosov attractor.
We prove here that in the complement of the closure of the hyperbolic surface diffeomorphisms, the ones exhibiting a homoclinic tangency are C^1 dense. This represents a step towards the global understanding of dynamics of surface…
We prove that periodic asymptotic expansiveness introduced in \cite{em} implies the equidistribution of periodic points to measures of maximal entropy. Then following Yomdin's approach \cite{Yom} we show by using semi-algebraic tools that…
In this work we lead with expanding maps of the circle and Anosov diffeomorphisms on $\mathbb{T}^d, d \geq 2.$ We prove that, for these maps, \textit{constant periodic data} imply \textit{same periodic data of these maps and their…
The (measure-theoretical) entropy of a diffeomorphism along an expanding invariant foliation is the rate of complexity generated by the diffeomorphism along the leaves of the foliation. We prove that this number varies upper…
We construct diffeomorphisms of ``pseudo-Anosov type'' on K3 surfaces M. In particular we obtain infinitely many examples of such diffeomorphisms that minimize entropy in their homotopy class, and for which neither the diffeomorphism nor…
In this paper we consider closed orientable surfaces $S$ of positive genus and $C^r$-diffeomorphisms $f:S\rightarrow S$ isotopic to the identity ($r\geq 1)$. The main objective is to study periodic open topological disks which are…
We prove that the action of the semigroup generated by a $C^r$ generic pair of area-preserving diffeomorphisms of a compact orientable surface is transitive.
We consider the dependence on parameters of the solutions of cohomology equations over Anosov diffeomorphisms. We show that the solutions depend on parameters as smoothly as the data. As a consequence we prove optimal regularity results for…
We construct open sets of degenerate unfoldings of heterodimensional cycles of any co-index $c>0$ and homoclinic tangencies of arbitrary codimension $c>0$. These sets are known to be the support of unexpected phenomena in families of…
We study the rigidity of compact submanifolds of Riemannian manifolds of arbitrary codimension that satisfy a sharp pinching condition involving the norm of the second fundamental form and the mean curvature. Without assuming that the…
