Given a $C^2$- Anosov diffemorphism $f: M \rightarrow M,$ we prove that the jacobian condition $Jf^n(p) = 1,$ for every point $p$ such that $f^n(p) = p,$ implies transitivity. As application in the celebrated theory of Sinai-Ruelle-Bowen,…

Our first main result states that the spectral norm on the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms, introduced in the works of Viterbo, Schwarz and Oh, is continuous with respect to the C^0 topology, when M is symplectically aspherical. This…

M Handel has proved in [Topology 38 (1999) 235--264] a fixed point theorem for an orientation preserving homeomorphism of the open unit disk, that may be extended to the closed disk and that satisfies a linking property of orbits. We give…

In differential topology and geometry, the h-principle is a property enjoyed by certain construction problems. Roughly speaking, it states that the only obstructions to the existence of a solution come from algebraic topology. We describe a…

Let $A_1, A_2\in \mathbb C(z)$ be rational functions of degree at least two that are neither Latt\`es maps nor conjugate to $z^{\pm n}$ or $\pm T_n.$ We describe invariant, periodic, and preperiodic algebraic curves for endomorphisms of…

We give a new proof of an isoperimetric inequality for a family of closed surfaces, which have Gaussian curvature identically equal to one wherever the surface is smooth. These surfaces are formed from a convex, spherical polygon, with each…

In this paper, we prove first that the space of minimal sets of any homeomorphisms $f:X\to X$ of a regular curve $X$ is closed in the hyperspace $2^X$ of closed subsets of $X$ endowed with the Hausdorff metric, and the non-wandering set…

Cerf and Palais independently proved a remarkable result about extending diffeomorphisms defined on smooth balls in a manifold to global diffeomorphisms of the manifold onto itself. We explain Palais' argument and show how to extend it to…

In this article, we introduce the notion of global adelic space of an arithmetic variety over an adelic curve and prove an equidistribution theorem for a generic sequence of subvarieties. As an application, we prove a Bogomolov type theorem…

We consider the family $f_{a,b}(x,y)=(y,(y+a)/(x+b))$ of birational maps of the plane and the parameter values $(a,b)$ for which $f_{a,b}$ gives an automorphism of a rational surface. In particular, we find values for which $f_{a,b}$ is an…

We study groups of homeomorphisms of R, each of whose elements have at most one fixed point. In particular we prove that any such group of C^2 diffeomorphisms is topologically conjugate to an affine group.

This final degree project is devoted to study the topological classification of complex plane curves. These are subsets of $\mathbb{C}^2$ that can be described by an equation $f(x,y)=0$. Loosely speaking, curves are said to be equivalent in…

An investigation of morphisms that coincide topologically is used to generalize to all characteristics and partly reprove Tamagawa's theorem on the Grothendieck conjecture in anabelian geometry for affine hyperbolic curves. The theorem now…

Let $C$ be a smooth projective irreducible curve defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ and $K=\mathbb{F}_q(C)$. Let $A\subset K$ be the ring of functions regular outside a fixed place $\infty$ of $K$. Let…

Let $K$ be a sub-$p$-adic field. We show that the functor sending a finite type $K$-scheme to its \'etale topos is fully faithful after localizing at the class of universal homeomorphisms. This generalizes a result of Voevodsky, who proved…

For any $1\le r\le \infty$, we show that every diffeomorphism of a manifold of the form $\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z} \times M$ is a total renormalization of a $C^r$-close to identity map. In other words, for every diffeomorphism $f$ of…

Let F be a subfield of a commutative field extending R. Let phi_n:F^n \times F^n ->F, phi_n((x_1,...,x_n),(y_1,...,y_n))=(x_1-y_1)^2+...+(x_n-y_n)^2. We say that f:R^n->F^n preserves distance d>=0 if for each x,y \in R^n |x-y|=d implies…

Let $f(t,y,y')=\sum_{i=0}^n a_i(t,y)y'^i=0$ be an irreducible first order ordinary differential equation with polynomial coefficients. Eremenko in 1998 proved that there exists a constant $C$ such that every rational solution of…

Using an annular version of the F. and M. Riesz theorem, we prove a generalization of the Rudin-Carleson theorem for finitely connected bounded domains. That is, for a continuous function on a closed set in the boundary of measure zero…

Using pseudoholomorphic curves techniques from symplectic geometry, Barney Bramham proved recently that every smooth irrational pseudo-rotation of the unit disk is the limit, for the $C^0$ topology, of a sequence of smooth periodic…
