Let $G$ be a Lie group and let $M$ be a proper smooth $G$-manifold. If $M$ is connected and $\dim(M)\geq 2$, the group of diffeomorphisms of $M$, that are isotopic to the identity through a compactly supported isotopy, acts $n$-transitively…
Let $d\geq 2$ be an integer and let $\omega_1,\cdots ,\omega_d$ be moduli of continuity in a specified class which contains the moduli of H\"{o}lder continuity. Let $f_k$, $k\in\{1,\cdots,d\}$, be $C^{1+\omega_k}$ orientation preserving…
Let $M$ be a smooth manifold and $\mathcal{F}$ a Morse-Bott foliation on $M$ with a compact critical manifold $\Sigma$. Denote by $\mathcal{D}(\mathcal{F})$ the group of diffeomorphisms of $M$ leaving invariant each leaf of $\mathcal{F}$.…
Let $M$ be a compact surface and $P$ be either $\mathbb{R}$ or $S^1$. For a smooth map $f:M\to P$ and a closed subset $V\subset M$, denote by $\mathcal{S}(f,V)$ the group of diffeomorphisms $h$ of $M$ preserving $f$, i.e. satisfying the…
We prove that various classical conformal diffeomorphism groups, which are known to be essential [1], are in fact properly essential. This is a consequence of a local criterion on a conformal diffeomorphism in the form of a cohomological…
Consider a connected manifold of dimension at least two and the group of compactly supported diffeomorphisms that are compactly supported isotopic to the identity. This group acts $n$-transitive: Any tuple of $n$ points can be moved to any…
We determine all the normal subgroups of the group of C^r diffeomorphisms of R^n, r = 1,2,...,infinity, except when r=n+1 or n=4, and also of the group of homeomorphisms of R^n (r=0). We also study the group A_0 of diffeomorphisms of an…
We construct an infinite dimensional real analytic manifold structure for the space of real analytic mappings from a compact manifold to a locally convex manifold. Here a map is real analytic if it extends to a holomorphic map on some…
Let $(M,g)$ and $(M',g')$ be non-orientable Riemannian surfaces with fixed boundary $\Gamma$ and fixed Euler characterictic $m$, and $\Lambda$ and $\Lambda'$ be their Dirichlet-to-Neumann maps, respectively. We prove that the closeness of…
Let $D$ be a digraph. A subset $S$ of $V(D)$ is a stable set if every pair of vertices in $S$ is non-adjacent in $D$. A collection of disjoint paths $\mathcal{P}$ of $D$ is a path partition of $V(D)$, if every vertex in $V(D)$ is on a path…
We build the first examples of diffeomorphisms that are distorted in a group of $C^r$ diffeomorphisms yet undistorted in the corresponding group of $C^s$ diffeomorphisms, where $r < s$. This explicit construction is performed for the closed…
We will introduce a family $\Gamma_\beta, 1 < \beta \in {\mathbb{R}}$ of infinite non-amenable discrete groups as an interpolation of the Higman-Thompson groups $V_n, 1 < n \in {\mathbb{N}}$ by using the topological full groups of the…
Following the recent advances in the study of groups of circle diffeomorphisms, we describe an efficient way of classifying the topological dynamics of locally discrete, finitely generated, virtually free subgroups of the group…
The Trouv\'e group $\mathcal G_{\mathcal A}$ from image analysis consists of the flows at a fixed time of all time-dependent vectors fields of a given regularity $\mathcal A(\mathbb R^d,\mathbb R^d)$. For a multitude of regularity classes…
Let $E$ be a finite-dimensional real vector space and $M\subseteq E$ be a convex polytope with non-empty interior. We turn the group of all $C^\infty$-diffeomorphisms of $M$ into a regular Lie group.
We consider the class of diffeomorphisms of a manifold that its differential keeps invariant a one-dimensional subbundle $E$. For that type of diffeomorphisms is naturally defined a one-parameter family called $E-$translation. We prove that…
We study the moduli space of handlebodies diffeomorphic to $(D^{n+1}\times S^{n})^{\natural g}$, i.e. the classifying space $BDiff((D^{n+1}\times S^n)^{\natural g}, D^{2n})$ of the group of diffeomorphisms that restrict to the identity near…
We establish some algebraic properties of the group $\mathrm{Diff}(\mathbb{C}^n,0)$ of germs of analytic diffeomorphisms of $\mathbb{C}^n$, and its formal completion $\widehat{\mathrm{Diff}}(\mathbb{C}^n,0)$. For instance we describe the…
Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a Morse-Bott foliation on the solid Klein bottle $\mathbf{K}$ into $2$-dimensional Klein bottles parallel to the boundary and one singular circle $S^1$. Let also $S^1\widetilde{\times}S^2$ be the twisted bundle over…
We construct Fr\'echet $\mathcal O(\mathbb C^\times)$-algebras $\mathcal O_{\mathrm{def}}(\mathbb D^n)$ and $\mathcal O_{\mathrm{def}}(\mathbb B^n)$ which may be interpreted as nonformal (or, more exactly, holomorphic) deformations of the…
