We study the action of the automorphism group of the $2$ complex dimensional manifold symmetrized bidisc $\mathbb{G}$ on itself. The automorphism group is 3 real dimensional. It foliates $\mathbb{G}$ into leaves all of which are 3 real…

For bounded pseudoconvex domains with finite type we give a precise description of the automorphism group: if an orbit of the automorphism group accumulates on at least two different points of the boundary, then the automorphism group has…

This paper examines the representations of hyperbolic integral homology spheres into the binary icosahedral group $2I$. We specifically give a geometric meaning to $2I$ representations by relating them to Larsen's notion of quotient…

Proper group actions are ubiquitous in mathematics and have many of the attractive features of actions of compact groups. In this survey, we discuss proper actions of Lie groups on smooth manifolds. If the group dimension is sufficiently…

Generically an almost complex structure has no symmetries at all, but there exist symmetric structures. In this paper we describe how to guarantee that the pseudogroup of local symmetries is small (finite-dimensional). It will be indicated…

We find sharp upper bounds on the order of the automorphism group of a hypersurface in complex projective space in every dimension and degree. In each case, we prove that the hypersurface realizing the upper bound is unique up to…

We study isometric immersions $f: M^n \rightarrow \mathbb{H}^{n+1}$ into hyperbolic space of dimension $n+1$ of a complete Riemannian manifold of dimension $n$ on which a compact connected group of intrinsic isometries acts with principal…

In this paper, we introduce notions of partitionability and characteristic sets of homogeneous polynomials and give a complete classification of groups faithfully acting on smooth cubic fivefolds. Specifically, we prove that there exist 20…

The (co)homological dimension of homomorphism $\phi:G\to H$ is the maximal number $k$ such that the induced homomorphism is nonzero for some $H$-module. The following theorems are proven: THEOREM 1. For every homomorphism $\phi:G\to H$ of a…

We describe homomorphisms $\varphi:H\rightarrow G$ for which the codomain is acylindrically hyperbolic and the domain is a topological group which is either completely metrizable or locally countably compact Hausdorff. It is shown that, in…

We show that if the group of holomorphic automorphisms of a connected complex manifold $M$ of dimension $n$ is isomorphic as a topological group equipped with the compact-open topology to the automorphism group of the unit ball…

We study fixed point sets for holomorphic automorphisms (and endomorphisms) on complex manifolds. The main object of our interest is to determine the number and configuration of fixed points that forces an automorphism (endomorphism) to be…

It is proved that the group of holomorphic automorphisms of holomorphically homogeneous nondegenerate (finite Bloom-Graham type + holomorphic nondegenaracy) model surface Q is a subgroup of the group of birational automorphisms of the…

We discuss instantons in dimensions higher than four. A generalized self-dual or anti-self-dual instanton equation in n-dimensions can be defined in terms of a closed (n-4) form $\Omega$ and it was recently employed as a topological gauge…

Suppose that a finitely generated group $G$ is hyperbolic relative to a collection of subgroups $\{H_1, ..., H_m\} $. We prove that if each of the subgroups $H_1, ..., H_m$ has finite asymptotic dimension, then asymptotic dimension of $G$…

In all dimensions $n \ge 4$ not of the form $4m+3$, we show that there exists a closed hyperbolic $n$-manifold which is not the boundary of a compact $(n+1)$-manifold. The proof relies on the relationship between the cobordism class and the…

We study manifolds endowed with an (almost) even Clifford (hermitian) structure and admitting a large automorphism group. We classify them when they are simply connected and the dimension of the automorphism group is maximal, and also prove…

Nikulin-type orbifolds are certain singular 4-dimensional irreducible holomorphic symplectic varieties. We show that the monodromy group of Nikulin-type orbifolds is maximal and classify finite order symplectic automorphisms up to…

A purely combinatorial compactification of the configuration space of n (>4) distinct points with equal weights in the real projective line was introduced by M. Yoshida. We geometrize it so that it will be a real hyperbolic cone-manifold of…

For an almost product structure $J$ on a manifold $M$ of dimension $6$ with non-degenerate Nijenhuis tensor $N_J$, we show that the automorphism group $G=Aut(M,J)$ has dimension at most 14. In the case of equality $G$ is the exceptional Lie…
