In this paper we connect the well established discrete frame theory of generalized shift invariant systems to a continuous frame theory. To do so, we let $\Gamma_j$, $j \in J$, be a countable family of closed, co-compact subgroups of a…

The goal of this paper is to establish a general rigidity statement for abstract representations of elementary subgroups of Chevalley groups of rank at least 2 over a class of commutative rings that includes the localizations of 1-generated…

Graph maps that are homotopic to the identity and that permute the vertices are studied. Given a periodic point for such a map, a {\em rotation element} is defined in terms of the fundamental group. A number of results are proved about the…

For $i = 0, 1, 2, \dots, k$, let $\mu_i$ be a Borel probability measure on $[0,1]$ which is equivalent to Lebesgue measure $\lambda$ and let $T_i:[0,1] \rightarrow [0,1]$ be $\mu_i$-preserving ergodic transformations. We say that…

Invariant circles play an important role as barriers to transport in the dynamics of area-preserving maps. KAM theory guarantees the persistence of some circles for near-integrable maps, but far from the integrable case all circles can be…

In this work we study homeomorphisms of closed orientable surfaces homotopic to the identity, focusing on the existence of non-contractible periodic orbits. We show that, if $g$ is such a homeomorphism, and if $\hat g$ is its lift to the…

Denote by $G$ the group of interval exchange transformations (IETs) on the unit interval. Let $G_{per}\subset G$ be the subgroup generated by torsion elements in $G$ (periodic IETs), and let $G_{rot}\subset G$ be the subset of 2-IETs…

For a continuous map on a topological graph containing a unique loop S it is possible to define the degree and, for a map of degree 1, rotation numbers. It is known that the set of rotation numbers of points in S is a compact interval and…

We say that the sequence $g_n$, $n\ge 3$, $n \rightarrow \infty$ of polynomial transformation bijective maps of free module $K^n$ over commutative ring $K$ is a sequence of stable degree if the order of $g_n$ is growing with $n$ and the…

Let $G$ be a closed highly homogeneous subgroup of $S_{\infty}$ not involving circular orderings. We show that the closure of a conjugacy class from $G$ contains a conjugacy class which is comeagre in it. Furthermore, we show that the…

In this paper we study a renormalization-group map: the block averaging transformation applied to Gibbs measures relative to a class of finite range lattice gases, when suitable strong mixing conditions are satisfied. Using block decimation…

The goal of this article is to study a rigidity property of Julia sets of certain classes of automorphisms in $\mathbb{C}^k$, $k \ge 3.$ First, we study the relation between two polynomial shift-like maps in $\mathbb{C}^k$, $k \ge 3$, that…

A $d$-dimensional (bar-and-joint) framework $(G,p)$ consists of a graph $G=(V,E)$ and a realisation $p:V\to \mathbb{R}^d$. It is rigid if every continuous motion of the vertices which preserves the lengths of the edges is induced by an…

We study the circle homeomorphisms extensions over a strictly ergodic homeomorphism. Under a very mild restriction, we show that the fibered rotation number is locally constant on an open and dense subset. In the complement of this set, we…

A bar-joint framework $(G,p)$ is the combination of a finite simple graph $G=(V,E)$ and a placement $p:V\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^d$. The framework is rigid if the only edge-length preserving continuous motions of the vertices arise from…

Let $\Sigma$ denote a closed surface with constant mean curvature in $\mathbb{G}^3$, a 3-dimensional Lie group equipped with a bi-invariant metric. For such surfaces, there is a harmonic Gauss map which maps values to the unit sphere within…

We study orbits and reachable sets of generic couples of Hamiltonians $H_1, H_2$ on a symplectic manifold $N$. We prove that, $C^k$-generically for $k$ large enough, orbits coincide with the whole of $N$, and that the same is true for…

We study the boundary rigidity problem for compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary $(M,g)$: is the Riemannian metric $g$ uniquely determined, up to an action of diffeomorphism fixing the boundary, by the distance function $\rho_g(x,y)$…

We present sufficient conditions so that a conformal map between planar domains whose boundary components are Jordan curves or points has a continuous or homeomorphic extension to the closures of the domains. Our conditions involve the…

We study the formal conjugacy properties of germs of complex analytic diffeomorphisms defined in the neighborhood of the origin of ${\mathbb C}^{n}$. More precisely, we are interested on the nature of formal conjugations along the fixed…
