The problem of equivariant rigidity is the $\Gamma$-homeomorphism classification of $\Gamma$-actions on manifolds with compact quotient and with contractible fixed sets for all finite subgroups of $\Gamma$. In other words, this is the…

Let $\Gamma$ be an infinite set equipped with the discrete topology. We prove that the space $\ell_{\infty}(\Gamma),$ of all complex-valued bounded functions on $\Gamma$, satisfies the Mazur-Ulam property, that is, every surjective isometry…

We show that the bounded Borel class of any dense representation $\rho: G\to \PSL_n\bC$ is non-zero in degree three bounded cohomology and has maximal semi-norm, for any discrete group $G$. When $n=2$, the Borel class is equal to the…

We prove the following theorem: Let $\bar\F_p$ be an algebraic closure of a finite field of characteristic $p$. Let $\rho$ be a continuous homomorphism from the absolute Galois group of $\Q$ to $\GL(3,\bar\F_p)$ which is isomorphic to a…

A countable discrete group $\Gamma$ is said to have the relative ISR-property if for every non-trivial normal subgroup $N\trianglelefteq\Gamma$ and every von Neumann subalgebra $\mathcal{M}\subseteq L(\Gamma)$ invariant under conjugation by…

In this two part work we prove that for every finitely generated subgroup $\Gamma < \text{Out}(F_n)$, either $\Gamma$ is virtually abelian or $H^2_b(\Gamma;\mathbb{R})$ contains an embedding of $\ell^1$. The method uses actions on…

The Brian\c{c}on-Iarrobino conjecture predicts the maximum singularity of the Hilbert scheme of a tetrahedral number of points. As for the maximal singularities of the Hilbert scheme of a non-tetrahedral number of points, the second named…

We show that hyperbolic 3-manifolds with finitely generated fundamental group are tame, that is the ends are products. We actually work in slightly greater generality with pinched negatively curved manifolds with hyperbolic cusps. This…

Let W be a compact hyperbolic n-manifold with totally geodesic boundary. We prove that if n>3 then the holonomy representation of pi_1 (W) into the isometry group of hyperbolic n-space is infinitesimally rigid.

For $\Gamma$ a cocompact or cofinite Fuchsian group, we study the hyperbolic lattice point problem in conjugacy classes, which is a modification of the classical hyperbolic lattice point problem. We use large sieve inequalities for the…

Let $\pi$ be a polarized, regular algebraic, cuspidal automorphic representation of $\operatorname{GL}_n(\mathbb{A}_F)$ where $F$ is totally real or imaginary CM, and let $(\rho_\lambda)_\lambda$ be its associated compatible system of…

For a fixed finite solvable group $G$ and number field $K$, we prove an upper bound for the number of $G$-extensions $L/K$ with restricted local behavior (at infinitely many places) and ${\rm inv}(L/K)<X$ for a general invariant $"{\rm…

We show a rigidity result for subfactors that are normalized by a representation of a lattice $\Gamma$ in a higher rank simple Lie group with trivial center into a finite factor. This implies that every subfactor of $L\Gamma$ which is…

Let $\Gamma$ be a relatively hyperbolic group and let $\mu$ be an admissible symmetric finitely supported probability measure on $\Gamma$. We extend Floyd-Ancona type inequalities up to the spectral radius of $\mu$. We then show that when…

In this paper, we introduce a notion of stable coarse algebras for metric spaces with bounded geometry, and formulate the twisted coarse Baum--Connes conjecture with respect to stable coarse algebras. We prove permanence properties of this…

In this paper, we study the fundamental group of a certain class of globally hyperbolic Lorentzian manifolds with a positive curvature tensor. We prove that the fundamental group of lightlike geodesically complete parametrized Lorentzian…

Let $\Gamma$ be a discrete subgroup of a simply connected, solvable Lie group~$G$, such that $\Ad_G\Gamma$ has the same Zariski closure as $\Ad G$. If $\alpha \colon \Gamma \to \GL_n(\real)$ is any finite-dimensional representation…

Let $Y=\Gamma\backslash H^n$ be a quotient of the hyperbolic space by the action of a discrete convex-cocompact group of isometries. We describe certain spaces of $\Gamma$-invariant currents on the sphere at infinity of $H^n$ with support…

We present necessary and sufficient conditions for the generic rigidity of body-bar frameworks on the three-dimensional fixed torus. These frameworks correspond to infinite periodic body-bar frameworks in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with a fixed…

A classical result of J\o rgensen and Thurston shows that the set of volumes of finite volume complete hyperbolic $3$-manifolds is a well-ordered subset of the real numbers of order type~$\omega^\omega$; moreover, each volume can only be…
