We find (completeness type) conditions on topological semilattices $X,Y$ guaranteeing that each continuous homomorphism $h:X\to Y$ has closed image $h(X)$ in $Y$.

We introduce a new class of zero-dimensional weighted complete intersections, by abstracting the essential features of rational cohomology algebras of equal rank homogeneous spaces of compact connected Lie groups. We prove that, on a…

This is a survey paper. We explain the known constructions for two geometrically different classes of examples of compact Riemannian 7-manifolds with holonomy G2. One method uses resolutions of singularities of appropriately chosen…

A foliation F on a Riemannian manifold M is homogeneous if its leaves coincide with the orbits of an isometric action on M. A foliation F is polar if it admits a section, that is, a connected closed totally geodesic submanifold of M which…

That announcement gives the structure of totally reducible linear Lie algebras which are the Lie algebra of the holonomy group of (at least) one torsion-free connection. The result uses the (already known) classi cation of the irreducible…

In this note we provide a direct proof of the complete classification of conformally flat isoparametric submanifolds of Euclidean space.

In this article, relations between the root space decomposition of a Riemannian symmetric space of compact type and the root space decompositions of its totally geodesic submanifolds (symmetric subspaces) are described. These relations…

This expository article discusses some connections between the geometry of a hyperbolic 3-manifold homotopy-equivalent to a surface, and the combinatorial properties of its end invariants. In particular a necessary and sufficient condition…

In this note we prove that every finite collection of connected algebraic subgroups of the group of triangular automorphisms of the affine space generates a connected solvable algebraic subgroup.

An ample groupoid is said to be AF if it is a directed union of compact open principal subgroupoids. In this paper, we provide a complete homological characterization of these groupoids. Specifically, we prove that an ample groupoid is AF…

In this paper, we develop the theory for classifying all the geometric fibrations of compact, connected, flat $n$-orbifolds, over a 1-orbifold, up to affine equivalence. We apply our classification theory to classify all the geometric…

The long-standing problem of the perfectness of the compactly supported equivariant homeomorphism group on a $G$-manifold (with one orbit type) is solved in the affirmative. The proof is based on an argument different than that for the case…

We prove that if two cusped hyperbolic $3$-manifolds admit a regular isomorphism between the profinite completions of their fundamental groups, then they share the same $A$-polynomial and their strongly detected boundary slopes match up.

It is proved that any (repetitive) Riemannian manifold of bounded geometry can be realized as a leaf of some (minimal) Riemannian matchbox manifold without holonomy. Our methods can be adapted to achieve Cantor transversals or a prescribed…

We show that on every compact Riemannian 2-orbifold there exist infinitely many closed geodesics of positive length.

The aim of this work is the study of geodesics on Lorentzian homogeneous spaces of the form $M=G/\Lambda$, where $G$ is a solvable Lie group endowed with a bi-invariant Lorentzian metric and $\Lambda < G$ is a cocompact lattice. Conditions…

In response to a question raised by Belolipetsky and the first author, we prove that for every finite group $G$ there are infinitely many isomorphism classes of compact complex hyperbolic $2$-manifolds with automorphism group isomorphic to…

We prove that on closed Riemannian manifolds with infinite abelian, but not cyclic, fundamental group, any isometry that is homotopic to the identity possesses infinitely many invariant geodesics. We conjecture that the result remains true…

This paper is a self-contained exposition of the geometry of symmetric positive-definite real $n\times n$ matrices $\operatorname{SPD}(n)$, including necessary and sufficent conditions for a submanifold $\mathcal{N}…

We prove that the automorphism group of a topological parallelism on real projective 3-space is compact. In a preceding article it was proved that at least the connected component of the identity is compact. The present proof does not…
