We consider partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms on compact manifolds where the unstable and stable foliations stably carry some unique non-trivial homologies. We prove the following two results: if the center foliation is one dimensional,…

In ergodic theory, given sufficient conditions on the system, every weak mixing $\mathbb{N}$-action is strong mixing along a density one subset of $\mathbb{N}$. We ask if a similar statement holds in topological dynamics with density one…

For a closed and orientable surface of genus at least 2, we prove the surface group extensions of the stabilizers of multicurves are hierarchically hyperbolic groups. This answers a question of Durham, Dowdall, Leininger, and Sisto. We also…

F. Paulin proved that if the Gromov boundaries of two hyperbolic groups are quasi-Mobius equivalent, then the groups themselves are quasi-isometric. The goal of this article is to extend Paulin's result to the setting of relatively…

We use algebraic arc complexes to prove a homological stability result for symplectic groups with slope 2/3 for rings with finite unitary stable rank. Symplectic groups are here interpreted as the automorphism groups of formed spaces with…

We prove that, if a group is relatively hyperbolic, the parabolic subgroups are virtually nilpotent if and only if there exists a hyperbolic space with bounded geometry on which it acts geometrically finitely. This provides, by use of M.…

It is well-known that the action of a hyperbolic element (``cat map'') of the modular group on the 2-torus has strong chaotic dynamical properties such as mixing and exponential decay of correlations. In this note we study stability of this…

We show that if G is an infinitely generated locally (polycyclic-by-finite) group with cohomology almost everywhere finitary, then every finite subgroup of G acts freely and orthogonally on some sphere.

We prove that a C2 Hamiltonian system H in M is globally hyperbolic if any of the following statements holds: H is robustly topologically stable; H is stably shadowable; H is stably expansive; and H has the stable weak specification…

Topological dynamics constitutes the study of asymptotic properties of orbits under flows or maps on the Hausdorff phase space. Hyperbolic dynamics is the study of differentiable flows or maps that are usually characterized by the presence…

In this article we prove global rigidity results for hyperbolic actions of higher-rank lattices. Suppose $\Gamma$ is a lattice in semisimple Lie group, all of whose factors have rank $2$ or higher. Let $\alpha$ be a smooth $\Gamma$-action…

We provide a unifying approach which links results on algebraic actions by Lind and Schmidt, Chung and Li, and a topological result by Meyerovitch that relates entropy to the set of asymptotic pairs. In order to do this we introduce a…

Tree-graded spaces are generalizations of R-trees. They appear as asymptotic cones of groups (when the cones have cut points). Since many questions about endomorphisms and automorphisms of groups, solving equations over groups, studying…

Let $\Gamma$ be a non-elementary hyperbolic group and $\mu$ be a probability on $\Gamma$. We study the $\mu$-proximal, stationary actions, also known as boundary actions, of $\Gamma$. In particular, we are interested in the spectrum of…

We prove that all Gromov hyperbolic groups embed into the asynchronous rational group defined by Grigorchuk, Nekrashevych and Sushchanski\u{i}. The proof involves assigning a system of binary addresses to points in the Gromov boundary of…

We prove that any action of a higher rank lattice on a Gromov-hyperbolic space is elementary. More precisely, it is either elliptic or parabolic. This is a large generalization of the fact that any action of a higher rank lattice on a tree…

Let $M_1$ and $M_2$ be two $n$-dimensional smooth manifolds with boundary. Suppose we glue $M_1$ and $M_2$ along some boundary components (which are, therefore, diffeomorphic). Call the result $N.$ If we have a group $G$ acting continuously…
