Sidorenko's Conjecture asserts that every bipartite graph H has the Sidorenko property, i.e., a quasirandom graph minimizes the density of H among all graphs with the same edge density. We study a stronger property, which requires that a…

We prove some new degeneracy results for integral points and entire curves on surfaces; in particular, we provide the first example, to our knowledge, of a simply connected smooth variety whose sets of integral points are never…

We show that any compact nonpositively curved cube complex $Y$ embeds in a compact nonpositively curved cube complex $R$ where each combinatorial injective partial local isometry of $Y$ extends to an automorphism of $R$. When $Y$ is special…

We investigate local entropy theory, particularly the property of having completely positive entropy (CPE), from a descriptive set-theoretic point of view. We aim to determine descriptive complexity of different families of dynamical…

We demonstrate the homogeneity of the Hilbert Cube. In particular, we construct explicit self-homeomorphisms of the Hilbert cube so that given any two points, a homeomorphism moving one to the other may be realized.

Let $N$ be a connected closed non-orientable surface of genus at least 6. In this work we prove that there exists a finite subgraph $\mathfrak{X}$ (Irmak's finite rigid set from ``Elmas Irmak. Exhausting curve complexes by finite rigid sets…

This paper analyzes commensurability of the class of surface automorphism generated by two Dehn multitwists. We show pairwise noncommensurability between several classes arising from canonical curve configurations. In addition, we consider…

We present several new easy ways of generating smooth one-dimensional maps displaying robust chaos, i.e., chaos for whole intervals of the parameter. Unlike what happens with previous methods, the Lyapunov exponent of the maps constructed…

We give a proof of the Gromov compactness theorem using the language of stable curves (i.e. cusp-curve of Gromov, or stable maps of Kontsevich and Manin) in general setting: An almost complex structure on a target manifold is only…

We give examples of contactomorphisms in every dimension that are smoothly isotopic to the identity but that are not contact isotopic to the identity. In fact, we prove the stronger statement that they are not even symplectically…

The purpose of this paper is to exhibit infinite families of conjugate projective curves in a number field whose complement have the same abelian fundamental group, but are non-homeomorphic. In particular, for any $d>3$ we find Zariski…

We formulate a strengthening of the Zariski dense orbit conjecture for birational maps of dynamical degree one. So, given a quasiprojective variety $X$ defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $0$, endowed with a…

We provide a complete characterization of those self-homeomorphisms of the unit circle that admit homeomorphic extensions to the unit disk belonging to bi--Orlicz--Sobolev spaces. Our results generalize classical criteria from the Sobolev…

We show that the graphs of nonseparating curves for oriented finite type surfaces are uniformly hyperbolic. Our proof follows the proof of uniform hyperbolicity of the graphs of curves for closed surfaces due to Przytycki-Sisto, while…

For any Tychonoff space $X$ let $C_p(X)$ (resp., $C^*_p(X)$) be the set of all continuous (resp., and bounded) functions on $X$ with the pointwise convergence topology. Given Tychonoff spaces $X$ and $Y$, Uspenskij \cite{us} proved that if…

An orientation-preserving recurrent homeomorphism of the two-sphere which is not the identity is shown to admit exactly two fixed points. A recurrent homeomorphism of a compact surface with negative Euler characteristic is periodic.

We give an explicit example of a fibration $f \colon X \to Y$ between smooth projective varieties whose "orbifold base" $\Delta_f$ in the sense of Campana has the property that the induced morphism $X \to (Y, \Delta_f)$ is not a morphism of…

We show that any commutative rationally ruled surface with a choice of anticanonical curve admits a 1-parameter family of noncommutative deformations parametrized by the Jacobian of the anticanonical curve, and show that many standard facts…

This is an expository paper giving a proof of the existence and uniqueness of smooth structures (hence also PL structures) on topological surfaces. Most published proofs rely on the topological Schoenflies theorem, but here we use instead…

In this note we show that the nonnegative part of a proper complex toric variety has the homeomorphism type of a sphere, and consequently that the nonnegative part has a natural structure of a cell complex. This extends previous results of…
