We show that the compactly supported cohomology of Shimura varieties of Hodge type of infinite $\Gamma_1(p^\infty)$-level (defined with respect to a Borel subgroup) vanishes above the middle degree, under the assumption that the group of…

We prove that the alternating group of a topologically free action of a countably infinite group $\Gamma$ on the Cantor set has the property that all of its $\ell^2$-Betti numbers vanish and, in the case that $\Gamma$ is amenable, is stable…

Call a normal complex projective variety $X$ Koll\'ar-hyperbolic if any nonconstant map from a smooth projective curve to $X$ induces a nontrivial homomorphism of \'etale fundamental groups. Examples include (a) smooth varieties with finite…

We give a new proof that every holomorphic one-form on a smooth complex projective variety of general type must vanish at some point, first proven by Popa and Schnell using generic vanishing theorems for Hodge modules. Our proof relies on…

Let $S \subset \mathbb{Z}^{d}$ be a finitely generated subsemigroup. Let $E$ be a product system over $S$. We show that there exists an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ and a semigroup $\alpha:=\{\alpha_x\}_{x \in…

This article contains a new argument which proves vanishing of the first cohomology for negative vector bundles over a complex projective variety if the rank of the bundle is smaller than the dimension of the base. Similar argument is…

For any geodesic metric space $X$, we give a complete cohomological characterisation of the hyperbolicity of $X$ in terms of vanishing of its second $\ell^{\infty}$-cohomology. We extend this result to the relative setting of $X$ with a…

Let $\Omega$ be an open subset of $\mathbb R^n$, and let $f: \Omega \to \mathbb R$ be differentiable $\mathcal H^k$-almost everywhere, for some nonnegative integer $k < n$, where $\mathcal H^k$ denotes the $k$=dimensional Hausdorff measure.…

Let S be a compact, connected surface and H in C^2(T^* S) a Tonelli Hamiltonian. This note extends V. V. Kozlov's result on the Euler characteristic of S when H is real-analytically integrable, using a definition of topologically-tame…

On a real regular elliptic surface without multiple fiber, the Betti number $h_1$ and the Hodge number $h^{1,1}$ are related by $h_1\leq h^{1,1}$. We prove that it's always possible to deform such algebraic surface to obtain $h_1=h^{1,1}$.…

Given a finite dimensional Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, let $\Gamma_\circ(\mathfrak{g})$ be the set of irreducible $\mathfrak{g}$-modules with non-vanishing cohomology. We prove that a $\mathfrak{g}$-module $V$ belongs to…

Consider a finite-dimensional algebra $A$ and any of its moduli spaces $\mathcal{M}(A,\mathbf{d})^{ss}_{\theta}$ of representations. We prove a decomposition theorem which relates any irreducible component of…

In this paper, we introduced $\alpha$-Hurewicz $\&$ $\theta$-Hurewicz properties in a topological space $X$ and investigated their relationship with other selective covering properties. We have shown that for an extremally disconnected…

We show the existence of large $\mathcal C^1$ open sets of area preserving endomorphisms of the two-torus which have no dominated splitting and are non-uniformly hyperbolic, meaning that Lebesgue almost every point has a positive and a…

We provide explicit counterexamples to the so-called Complement Problem in every dimension $n\geq3$, i.e. pairs of non-isomorphic irreducible hypersurfaces $H_1, H_2\subset\mathbb{C}^{n}$ whose complements $\mathbb{C}^{n}\setminus H_1$ and…

A topological group $G$ is extremely amenable if every continuous action of $G$ on a compact space has a fixed point. Using the concentration of measure techniques developed by Gromov and Milman, we prove that the group of automorphisms of…

We prove that a space whose topological complexity equals 1 is homotopy equivalent to some odd-dimensional sphere. We prove a similar result, although not in complete generality, for spaces X whose higher topological complexity TC_n(X) is…

We extend the concept of amenability of a Banach algebra $A$ to the case that there is an extra $\mathfrak A$-module structure on $A$, and show that when $S$ is an inverse semigroup with subsemigroup $E$ of idempotents, then $A=\ell^1(S)$…

We study the homeomorphism types of certain covers of (always orientable) surfaces, usually of infinite-type. We show that every surface with non-abelian fundamental group is covered by every noncompact surface, we identify the universal…

The notion of faithful flatness of a module over a commutative ring is studied for two $R$-modules $M$ arising in functional analysis, where $R$ is a Banach algebra and $M$ is a Hilbert space. The following results are shown: If $X$ is a…
