We show that the equivariant cohomology of any hyperpolar action of a compact and connected Lie group on a symmetric space of compact type is a Cohen-Macaulay ring. This generalizes some results previously obtained by the authors.

By a Liouville structure on a symplectic manifold $(M, \omega)$ we mean a choice of symplectic potential: that is, a choice of one-form $\theta$ on $M$ such that ${\rm d} \theta = \omega$. We determine precisely all the automorphisms of a…

We study the Liouville action for quasi-Fuchsian groups with parabolic and elliptic elements. In particular, when the group is Fuchsian, the contribution of elliptic elements to the classical Liouville action is derived in terms of the…

The two main results of this paper concern the regularity of the invariant foliation of a C0-integrable symplectic twist diffeomorphisms of the 2-dimensional annulus, namely that $\bullet$ the generating function of such a foliation is C1 ;…

We prove that for any two Riemannian metrics $\sigma_1, \sigma_2$ on the unit disk, a homeomorphism $\partial\mathbb{D}\to\partial\mathbb{D}$ extends to at most one quasiconformal minimal diffeomorphism $(\mathbb{D},\sigma_1)\to…

We classify the harmonic morphisms with one-dimensional fibres (1) from real-analytic conformally-flat Riemannian manifolds of dimension at least four, and (2) between conformally-flat Riemannian manifolds of dimensions at least three.

We show that for a Hamiltonian action of a compact torus $G$ on a compact, connected symplectic manifold $M$, the $G$-equivariant cohomology is determined by the residual $S^1$ action on the submanifolds of $M$ fixed by codimension-1 tori.…

We study hyperpolar actions on reducible symmetric spaces of the compact type. Our main result is that an indecomposable hyperpolar action on a symmetric space of the compact type is orbit equivalent to a Hermann action or of cohomogeneity…
