The main result of the paper is motivated by the following two, apparently unrelated graph optimization problems: (A) as an extension of Edmonds' disjoint branchings theorem, characterize digraphs comprising $k$ disjoint branchings $B_i$…
In connection with some recent results by J. Bourgain and H. Abdalaoui, M. Lemanczyk, T. De La Rue (ALR) we present a short proof of Bourgain's theorem on Mobius orthogonality property for bounded rank-one constructions. The proof of the…
For a class of irrational numbers, depending on their Diophantine properties, we construct explicit rank-one transformations that are totally ergodic and not weakly mixing. We classify when the measure is finite or infinite. In the finite…
Our goal is to establish what seems to be the first rigidity result for CR embeddings between Shilov boundaries of bounded symmetric domains of higher rank. The result states that any such CR embedding is the standard linear embedding up to…
The infinite reduction of couplings is a tool to consistently renormalize a wide class of non-renormalizable theories with a reduced, eventually finite, set of independent couplings, and classify the non-renormalizable interactions. Several…
A closed convex conic subset $\mathcal{S}$ of the positive semidefinite (PSD) cone is rank-one generated (ROG) if all of its extreme rays are generated by rank-one matrices. The ROG property of $\mathcal{S}$ is closely related to the…
We give a positive answer to the Chavel's conjecture [J. Diff. Geom. 4 (1970), 13-20]: a simply connected rank one normal homogeneous space is symmetric if any pair of conjugate points are isotropic. It implies that all simply connected…
We present a unified study of first and second order necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for minimax and Chebyshev optimisation problems with cone constraints. First order optimality conditions for such problems can be formulated…
An algebraic isopair is a commuting pair of pure isometries that is annihilated by a polynomial defining a distinguished variety $\mathcal{V}$. The notion of the rank of a pure algebraic isopair with finite bimultiplicity is introduced. For…
In this paper, we proved two results regarding the arithmetics of separably $\mathbb{A}^1$-connected varieties of rank one. First we proved over a large field, there is an $\mathbb{A}^1$-curve through any rational point of the boundary, if…
After introducing the different boundary geometries of rank one symmetric spaces, we state and prove Fried's theorem in the general setting of all those geometries: a closed manifold with a similarity structure is either complete or the…
As an extension of a classical tree-partition problem, we consider decompositions of graphs into edge-disjoint (rooted-)trees with an additional matroid constraint. Specifically, suppose we are given a graph $G=(V,E)$, a multiset…
Recently, G\'{o}rska, Lema\'{n}czyk, and de la Rue characterized the class of automorphisms disjoint from all ergodic automorphisms. Inspired by their work, we provide several characterizations of systems that are disjoint from all minimal…
We consider Bratteli diagrams of finite rank (not necessarily simple) and ergodic invariant measures with respect to the cofinal equivalence relation on their path spaces. It is shown that every ergodic invariant measure (finite or…
We show that every continuous homogeneous quasimorphism on a finite-dimensional 1-connected simple Lie group arises as the relative growth of any continuous bi-invariant partial order on that group. More generally we show, that an arbitrary…
The aim of this article is the proof of the following result: Let M be a connected manifold endowed with a regular Cartan geometry modelled on the boundary X of the d-dimensional real (resp. complex, resp. quaternionic, resp. octonionic)…
We prove that a homomorphism between free groups of finite rank equipped with the bi-invariant word metrics is a quasi-isometry if and only if it is an isomorphism.
We study ergodic decompositions of Dirichlet spaces under intertwining via unitary order isomorphisms. We show that the ergodic decomposition of a quasi-regular Dirichlet space is unique up to a unique isomorphism of the indexing space.…
We develop a notion of rank one properly convex domains (or Hilbert geometries) in the real projective space. This is in the spirit of rank one non-positively curved Riemannian manifolds and CAT(0) spaces. We define rank one isometries for…
The Lyapunov rank of a proper cone $K$ in a finite dimensional real Hilbert space is defined as the dimension of the space of all Lyapunov-like transformations on $K$, or equivalently, the dimension of the Lie algebra of the automorphism…
