In this work we treat a famous topic in Ergodic Theory and Dynamical Systems: uniformly expanding maps. We relate regularity of expanding maps and conjugacies with Lyapunov exponents, metric and topological entropies for expanding maps of…
We study quasiconformal maps on non-rigid Carnot groups equipped with Carnot metric. We show that for most non-rigid Carnot groups N, all quasiconformal maps on N must be biLipschitz.
In this paper, we introduce a particularly nice family of locally CAT(-1) spaces, which we call hyperbolic P-manifolds. For $X^3$ a simple, thick hyperbolic P-manifold of dimension 3, we show that certain subsets of the boundary at infinity…
This article investigates a few questions about orbits of local automorphisms in manifolds endowed with rigid geometric structures. We give sufficient conditions for local homogeneity in a broad class of such structures, namely Cartan…
The paper deals with quasigroups having a trivial group of automorphisms and a trivial group of autotopisms. Examples of such quasigroups and methods of their verification are given.
We show that fiber-preserving quasisymmetric maps are biLipschitz. As an application, we show that quasisymmetric maps on Carnot groups with reducible first stratum are biLipschitz.
In this paper we propose two guiding principles that suggest a number of conjectures (some now proved) about various forms of rigidity for moduli spaces arising in algebraic geometry. Such conjectures have group-theoretic, topological and…
Two groups are virtually isomorphic if they can be obtained one from the other via a finite number of steps, where each step consists in taking a finite extension or a finite index subgroup (or viceversa). Virtually isomorphic groups are…
We prove rigidity results describing contextually-constrained maps defined on Grassmannians and manifolds of ordered independent line tuples in finite-dimensional vector or Hilbert spaces. One statement in the spirit of the Fundamental…
In this paper we show that if $Y=N \times \mathbb{Q}_m$ is a metric space where $N$ is a Carnot group endowed with the Carnot-Caratheodory metric then any quasisymmetric map of $Y$ is actually bilipschitz. The key observation is that $Y$ is…
A quasihomomorphism is a map that satisfies the homomorphism relation up to bounded error. Fujiwara and Kapovich proved a rigidity result for quasihomomorphisms taking values in discrete groups, showing that all quasihomomorphisms can be…
We consider the existence problem of lift F of a map f between Carnot group with different smoothness, where we use central extension to define lifting. Our main result is the existence of the contact lifts of Lipschitz and Sobolev maps and…
Given a homeomorphism $f\colon X\to Y$ between $Q$-dimensional spaces $X,Y$, we show that $f$ satisfying the metric definition of quasiconformality outside suitable exceptional sets implies that $f$ belongs to the Sobolev class…
We establish new results and introduce new methods in the theory of measurable orbit equivalence, using bounded cohomology of group representations. Our rigidity statements hold for a wide (uncountable) class of groups arising from negative…
In this paper, we give some rigidity results for both harmonic and pseudoharmonic maps from CR manifolds into Riemannian manifolds or Kahler manifolds. Some basicity, pluriharmonicity and Siu-Sampson type results are established for both…
We introduce the concept of orthogonal structure on complex Grassmannians. Based on this structure, we define the notion of orthogonal mappings. This class of maps generalizes holomorphic maps between the Shilov boundaries of type-I bounded…
This paper gives an alternate, elementary proof of a result of Magnani: maps between Carnot groups that preserve horizontal curves and are continuously differential in horizontal directions in the Euclidean sense are continuously Pansu…
Carnot groups are distinguished spaces that are rich of structure: they are those Lie groups equipped with a path distance that is invariant by left-translations of the group and admit automorphisms that are dilations with respect to the…
It is shown that the middle quasi-homomorphisms of Fujiwara and Kapovich are precisely constant perturbations of quasi-homomorphisms. Quasi-polynomial maps are defined and their constructibility is explored. In particular, it is shown that…
In this paper, we survey recent works on the structure of the mapping class groups of surfaces mainly from the point of view of topology. We then discuss several possible directions for future research. These include the relation between…
