Let $\Gamma \subset SL(2, \mathbb Z)$ be a finite subgroup acting on the irrational rotational algebra $\mathcal A_\theta$ via the restriction of the canonical action of $SL(2,\mathbb Z)$. Consider the crossed product algebra $\mathcal…
Let F be a finite subgroup of SL_2 (Z) (necessarily isomorphic to one of Z/2Z, Z/3Z, Z/4Z, or Z/6Z), and let F act on the irrational rotational algebra A_{\theta} via the restriction of the canonical action of SL_2 (Z). Then the crossed…
In this paper we introduce the notion of degree for $C^1$-cocycles over irrational rotations on the circle with values in the group SU(2). It is shown that if a $C^1$-cocycle $\phi:S^1\to SU(2)$ over an irrational rotation by $\alpha$ has…
We study a linear cocycle over irrational rotation $\sigma_{\omega}(x) = x + \omega$ of a circle $\mathbb{T}^{1}$. It is supposed the cocycle is generated by a $C^{1}$-map $A_{\varepsilon}: \mathbb{T}^{1} \to SL(2, \mathbb{R})$ which…
Symmetries corresponding to local transformations of the fundamental fields that leave the action invariant give rise to (invertible) topological defects, which obey group-like fusion rules. One can construct more general (codimension-one)…
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…
We consider skew-product maps over circle rotations $x\mapsto x+\alpha$ (mod 1) with factors that take values in SL(2,R). This includes maps of almost Mathieu type. In numerical experiments, with $\alpha$ the inverse golden mean, Fibonacci…
A polynomial skew product of C^2 is a map of the form f(z,w) = (p(z), q(z,w)), where p and q are polynomials, such that f is regular of degree d >= 2. For polynomial maps of C, hyperbolicity is equivalent to the condition that the closure…
We show that the free-by-cyclic groups of the form F(2)-by-Z act properly cocompactly on CAT(0) square complexes. We also show using generalised Baumslag-Solitar groups that all known groups defined by a 2-generator 1-relator presentation…
Let $M$ be a closed smooth Riemannian manifold $M$, and let $f:M\to M$ be a diffeomorphism. Herein, we demonstrate that (i) if $f$ has the $C^1$ robustly inverse shadowing property on the chain recurrent set $\mathcal{CR}(f)$, then…
This paper presents two approaches to reducing problems on $2$-cycles on a smooth cubic hypersurface $X$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $\neq 2$, to problems on $1$-cycles on its variety of lines $F(X)$. The first one…
We first construct a real family of $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$-invariant symbol composition product $\{\sharp_\theta\}_{\theta\in,\mathbb{R}}$ on the analogue of the Schwartz space $S(\mathbb{D})$ on the hyperbolic plane…
We study the smooth untwisted cohomology with real coefficients for the action on [SL(2, R) \times \cdot \cdot \cdot \times SL(2, R)]/{\Gamma} by the subgroup of diagonal matrices, where {\Gamma} is an irreducible lattice. In the top…
We study the recurrence properties of certain skew products over symmetric interval exchange transformations, including rotations, with cocycles of the form $f(x)=-\frac{1}{x^a}+\frac{1}{(1-x)^a}$, where $a>1$. We prove that typically, such…
Let T_\alpha denote the rotation T_{\alpha}x=x+\alpha (mod 1) by an irrational number \alpha on the additive circle T=[0,1). Let \beta_1,..., \beta_d be d\geqslant 1 parameters in [0, 1). One of the goals of this paper is to describe the…
We describe a new and robust method to prove rigidity results in complex dynamics. The new ingredient is the geometry of the critical puzzle pieces: under control of geometry and ``complex bounds'', two generalized polynomial-like maps…
By using a cocycle generated by the step function $\varphi_{\beta, \gamma} = 1_{[0, \beta]} - 1_{[0, \beta]} (. + \gamma)$ over an irrational rotation $x \to x + \alpha \mod 1$, we present examples which illustrate different aspects of the…
We employ the Klemm-Clem transformations to map the equations of motion for the Green functions of a clean superconductor with a general ellipsoidal Fermi surface (FS) characterized by the effective masses $m_1, m_2$, and $m_3$ in the…
We extend the results of Watson, which link quantum unique ergodicity on arithmetic hyperbolic surfaces with subconvexity for the triple product L function, to the case of arithmetic hyperbolic three manifolds. We work with the full unitary…
We introduce a 2-cocycle for symplectic and skew-hermitian hyperbolic groups over arbitrary fields and skew fields, with values in the Witt group of hermitian forms. This cocycle has good functorial properties: it is natural under extension…
