Let G = SU(n,1), n >1 be the orientation-preserving isometry group of the complex hyperbolic space with an Iwasawa decomposition G = KAN. We prove local rigidity of a family of certain actions of a subgroup of AN on the imaginary boundary…

This paper is a step towards the complete topological classification of {\Omega}-stable diffeomorphisms on an orientable closed surface, aiming to give necessary and sufficient conditions for two such diffeomorphisms to be topologically…

We obtain smooth conjugacy between non-necessarily special Anosov endomorphisms in the conservative case. Among other results, we prove that a strongly special $C^{\infty}-$Anosov endomorphism of $\mathbb{T}^2$ and its linearization are…

We prove a rigidity theorem for morphisms from products of open subschemes of the projective line into solvable groups not containing a copy of $\Ga$ (for example, wound unipotent groups). As a consequence, we deduce several structural…

Let $\G$ be a locally compact group satisfying some technical requirements and $\wG$ its unitary dual. Using the theory of twisted crossed product $C^*$-algebras, we develop a twisted global quantization for symbols defined on $\G\times\wG$…

We introduce the notion of rigidity for automorphic representations of groups over global function fields. We construct the Langlands parameters of rigid automorphic representations explicitly as local systems over open curves. We expect…

We study the ergodic theory of non-conservative C^1-generic diffeomorphisms. First, we show that homoclinic classes of arbitrary diffeomorphisms exhibit ergodic measures whose supports coincide with the homoclinic class. Second, we show…

As shown by H. Gluck in 1962, the diffeotopy group of S^1 \times S^2 is isomorphic to Z_2 + Z_2 + Z_2. Here an alternative proof of this result is given, relying on contact topology. We then discuss two applications to contact topology: (i)…

Given a complete local Noetherian ring $(A,\m_A)$ with finite residue field and a subfield $\pmb{k}$ of $A/\m_A$, we show that every closed subgroup $G$ of $GL_n(A)$ such that $G\mod{\m_A}\supseteq SL_n(\pmb{k})$ contains a conjugate of…

Gradient steady Ricci solitons are natural generalizations of Ricci-flat manifolds. In this article, we prove a curvature gap theorem for gradient steady Ricci solitons with nonconstant potential functions; and a curvature gap theorem for…

We describe the global structure of totally disconnected locally compact groups having a linear open compact subgroup. Among the applications, we show that if a non-discrete, compactly generated, topologically simple, totally disconnected…

We prove the Poisson version of the Gromov-Eliashberg's $C^0$-rigidity. More precisely, we prove that the group of Poisson diffeomorphisms is closed with respect to the $C^0$ topology inside the group of all diffeomorphisms. The proof…

Let $G$ be the group ${\rm PAff}_+({\bf S}^1)$ of piecewise--affine circle homeomorphisms or the group ${\Diff}^{\infty}(\mathbb R/\mathbb Z)$ of smooth circle diffeomorphisms. A constructive proof that all irrational rotations are…

A number of techniques have been developed to perturb the dynamics of $C^1$-diffeomorphisms and to modify the properties of their periodic orbits. For instance, one can locally linearize the dynamics, change the tangent dynamics, or create…

We say that a fixed point of a diffeomorphism is non-degenerate if 1 is not an eigenvalue of the linearization at the fixed point. We use pseudo-holomorphic curves techniques to prove the following: the inclusion map $$i: \text{Diff} ^{1}…

This paper gives a systematic construction of certain covers of finite semigroups. These covers will be used in future work on the complexity of finite semigroups.

We establish a global rigidity theorem for Riemannian metrics without conjugate points on three-manifolds of the form $M = \Sigma \times S^1$, where $\Sigma$ is a compact orientable surface of genus at least 2. The main result states that…

De la Llave's examples are Anosov diffeomorphisms on the four-torus $\mathbb{T}^4$ with constant Lyapunov spectrum, yet they are not $C^{1}$-conjugate to the linear model or to each other. Nevertheless, we show that such examples are…

We are interested in classifying groups of local biholomorphisms (or even formal diffeomorphisms) that can be endowed with a canonical structure of algebraic group up to add extra formal diffeomorphisms. We show that this is the case for…

In his earlier work, the author introduced a group theory question that arises in the study of iterated Galois groups of post-critically finite quadratic polynomials. In this paper, we prove the first non-trivial results on this question.
