This paper is a step towards the complete topological classification of {\Omega}-stable diffeomorphisms on an orientable closed surface, aiming to give necessary and sufficient conditions for two such diffeomorphisms to be topologically…
Here we shall consider the topology and dynamics associated to a wide class of matchbox manifolds, including a large selection of tiling spaces and all minimal matchbox manifolds of dimension one. For such spaces we introduce topological…
In this paper we show that even in the case of simply connected minimal algebraic surfaces of general type, deformation and differentiable equivalence do not coincide. Exhibiting several simple families of surfaces which are not deformation…
The group of automorphisms of the Cuntz algebra $\mathcal{O}_{2}$ is a Polish group with respect to the topology of pointwise convergence in norm. Our main result is that the relations of conjugacy and cocycle conjugacy of automorphisms of…
We prove that for a countable discrete group $\Gamma$ containing a copy of the free group $\F_n$, for some $2\leq n\leq\infty$, as a normal subgroup, the equivalence relations of conjugacy, orbit equivalence and von Neumann equivalence of…
Building on work of van Engelen and van Mill, we show that a zero-dimensional Borel space is homeomorphic to a semifilter if and only if it is homogeneous and not locally compact. Under $\mathbf{\Sigma}^1_1$-Determinacy, this result extends…
In this paper we give a complete topological classification of orientation preserving Morse-Smale diffeomorphisms on orientable closed surfaces. For MS diffeomorphisms with relatively simple behaviour it was known that such a classification…
We show that for any smooth Hausdorff manifolds M and N, which are not necessarily second countable, paracompact or connected, any isomorphism from the algebra of smooth (real or complex) functions on N to the algebra of smooth functions on…
A basic problem in smooth dynamics is determining if a system can be distinguished from its inverse, i.e., whether a smooth diffeomorphism $T$ is isomorphic to $T^{-1}$. We show that this problem is sufficiently general that asking it for…
We prove that a compactly supported homeomorphism of a smooth manifold of dimension greater or equal to 5 can be approximated uniformly by compactly supported diffeomorphisms if and only if it is isotopic to a diffeomorphism. If the given…
We prove that the topological conjugacy relations both for minimal systems and pointed minimal systems are not Borel-reducible to any Borel $S_{\infty}$-action.
In this (mostly expository) paper, we review a proof of the following old theorem of R.L. Moore: for a closed equivalence relation on the 2-sphere such that all equivalence classes are connected and non-separating, and not all points are…
Pseudocycles are geometric representatives for integral homology classes on smooth manifolds that have proved useful in particular for defining gauge-theoretic invariants. The Borel-Moore homology is often a more natural object to work with…
We consider the problem of classifying Kolmogorov automorphisms (or $K$-automorphisms for brevity) up to isomorphism. Within the collection of measure-preserving transformations, Bernoulli shifts have the ultimate mixing property, and…
We show that it is impossible to classify topological conjugacy relation of minimal homeomorphisms on the torus by countable structures.
It is shown that the isomorphism relation between continuous t-norms is Borel bireducible with the relation of order isomorphism between linear orders on the set of natural numbers, and therefore, it is a Borel complete equivalence…
We consider H\"older continuous cocycles over an accessible partially hyperbolic system with values in the group of diffeomorphisms of a compact manifold $M$. We obtain several results for this setting. If a cocycle is bounded in…
This paper provides a diffeomorphism classification of smooth manifolds homeomorphic to the complex projective space $\mathbb{C}P^m$ for $m \in \{5, 6, 7, 8\}$. The classification is obtained by computing the group of concordance classes of…
We describe interrelations between a topology structure of closed manifolds (orientable and non-orientable) of the dimension $n\geq 4$ and the structure of the non-wandering set of regular homeomorphisms, in particular, Morse-Smale…
The Torelli group of a manifold is the group of all diffeomorphisms which act as the identity on the homology of the manifold. In this paper, we calculate the invariant part (invariant under the action of the automorphisms of the homology)…
