Let $\Gamma$ be a discrete group with property $(T)$ of Kazhdan. We prove that any Riemannian isometric action of $\Gamma$ on a compact manifold $X$ is locally rigid. We also prove a more general foliated version of this result. The…
We study the rigidity properties of a class of algebraic Z^3-actions with entropy rank two. For this class, conditions are found which force an invariant measure to be the Haar measure on an affine subset. This is applied to show…
Suppose $G$ is a higher-rank connected semisimple Lie group with finite center and without compact factors. Let $\mathbb{G}=G$ or $\mathbb{G}=G\ltimes V$, where $V$ is a finite dimensional vector space $V$. For any unitary representation…
The goal of the paper is to develop a systematic approach to the study of (perhaps degenerate) singularities of integrable systems and their structural stability. As the main tool, we use "hidden" system-preserving torus actions near…
We show the following dichotomy for a linear parabolic $\mathbb Z^2$-action $\rho_L$ on the torus with at least one step-2 generator: (i) Any affine $\mathbb Z^2$-action with linear part $\rho_L$ has a $\mathbb Z$-factor that is either…
In \cite{BK02}, M. Bonk and B. Kleiner proved a rigidity theorem for expanding quasi-M\"obius group actions on Ahlfors $n$-regular metric spaces with topological dimension $n$. This led naturally to a rigidity result for quasi-convex…
We prove the locally differentiable rigidity of generic partially hyperbolic abelian algebraic high-rank actions on compact homogeneous spaces obtained from split symplectic Lie groups. We also gave a non-generic action rigidity example on…
We make a few observations on the absence of geometric and topological rigidity for acylindrically hyperbolic and relatively hyperbolic groups. In particular, we demonstrate the lack of a well-defined limit set for acylindrical actions on…
In this paper we extend the local scalar curvature rigidity result in [6] to a small domain on general vacuum static spaces, which confirms the interesting dichotomy of local surjectivity and local rigidity about the scalar curvature in…
Let $M$ be a finite volume analytic pseudo-Riemannian manifold that admits an isometric $G$-action with a dense orbit, where $G$ is a connected non-compact simple Lie group. For low-dimensional $M$, i.e. $\dim(M) < 2\dim(G)$, when the…
In this work we completely classify $C^\infty$ conjugacy for conservative partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms homotopic to a linear Anosov automorphism on the 3-torus by its center foliation behavior. We prove that the uniform version of…
We give an example of a path-wise connected open set of $C^\infty$ partially hyperbolic endomorphisms on the $2$-torus, on which the SRB measure exists for each system and varies smoothly depending on the system, while the sign of its…
We consider smooth partially hyperbolic volume preserving Z^k actions on smooth manifolds, with uniformly compact center foliation. We show that under certain irreducibility condition on the action, bunching and uniform quasiconformality…
We discover a rigidity phenomenon within the volume-preserving partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms with $1$-dimensional center. In particular, for smooth, ergodic perturbations of certain algebraic systems -- including the discretized…
For $\lambda>1$, we consider the locally free ${\mathbb Z}\ltimes_\lambda{\mathbb R}$ actions on ${\mathbb T}^2$. We show that, if the action is $C^r$ with $r\geq2$, then it is $C^{r-\epsilon}$-conjugate to an affine action generated by a…
Suppose G is a hyperbolic group whose boundary has topological dimension k. If the boundary is quasisymmetrically homeomorphic to an Ahlfors k-regular metric space, then, modulo a finite normal subgroup, G is isomorphic to a uniform lattice…
In this paper we study perturbations of constant cocycles for actions of higher rank semi-simple algebraic groups and their lattices. Roughly speaking, for ergodic actions, Zimmer's cocycle superrigidity theorems implies that the perturbed…
In this paper, we prove a local rigidity of convex hypersurfaces in the spaces of constant curvature of dimension $n\ge4$. Namely, we show that two convex isometric hypersurfaces are congruent locally around their corresponding under the…
This article is the second in a series of two whose aim is to extend a recent result of Guillarmou-Lefeuvre [arXiv:1806.04218] on the local rigidity of the marked length spectrum from the case of compact negatively-curved Riemannian…
We prove that quasi-isometries of horospherical products of hyperbolic spaces are geometrically rigid in the sense that they are uniformly close to product maps, this is a generalisation of the result obtained by Eskin, Fisher and Whyte in…
