We obtain sharp rotation bounds for homeomorphisms $f:\mathbb{C}\to\mathbb{C}$ whose distortion is in $L^p_{loc}$, $p\geq1$, and whose inverse have controlled modulus of continuity. The motivation to study this class of maps comes from…

Given a closed, orientable surface of constant negative curvature and genus $g \ge 2$, we study a family of generalized Bowen-Series boundary maps and prove the following rigidity result: in this family the topological entropy is constant…

A systematics of grain boundary (GB) segregation transitions and critical phenomena has been derived to expand the classical GB segregation theory. Using twist GBs as an example, this study uncovers when GB layering vs. prewetting…

Let S be a closed surface with nonzero Euler characteristic. We prove the existence of an open neighborhood V of the identity map of S in the C^1-topology with the following property: if G is an abelian subgroup of Diff^1(S) generated by…

Let b be an integer and mu a probability measure on [0,1] which is invariant and ergodic multiplication by b mod 1, and 0<dim(mu)<1. Let f be a diffeomorphism between open subsets of the line. We show that if the measures mu and f(mu) are…

We develop a rigidity theory for frameworks in $\mathbb{R}^3$ which have two coincident points but are otherwise generic and only infinitesimal motions which are tangential to a family of cylinders induced by the realisation are considered.…

An action of a complex reductive group $\mathrm G$ on a smooth projective variety $X$ is regular when all regular unipotent elements in $\mathrm G$ act with finitely many fixed points. Then the complex $\mathrm G$-equivariant cohomology…

H\"older's theorem states that any group acting freely by circle homeomorphisms is abelian, this is no longer true for interval exchange transformations: we first give examples of free actions of non abelian groups. Then after noting that…

In this paper, we study the ensemble average of boundary CFT (BCFT) data consistent with the bootstrap equations. We apply the results to computing ensemble average of copies of multi-point correlation functions of boundary changing…

We study contraction conditions for an iterated function system of continuous maps on a metric space which are chosen randomly, identically and independently. We investigate metric changes, preserving the topological structure of the space,…

Let $G$ be a locally compact abelian group. By modifying a theorem of Pedersen, it follows that actions of $G$ on $C^*$-algebras $A$ and $B$ are outer conjugate if and only if there is an isomorphism of the crossed products that is…

We study the interplay between principal pivot transform (pivot) and loop complementation for graphs. This is done by generalizing loop complementation (in addition to pivot) to set systems. We show that the operations together, when…

We study the problem of conjugating a diffeomorphism of the interval to (positive) powers of itself. Although this is always possible for homeomorphisms, the smooth setting is rather interesting. Besides the obvious obstruction given by…

We consider distributions on a closed compact manifold $M$ as maps on smoothing operators. Thus spaces of certain maps between $\Psi^{-\infty}(M)\to \mathcal{C}^{\infty}(M)$ are considered as generalized functions. For any collection of…

A rigidity property for the homotopy invariant stable linear framed presheaves is established. As a consequence a variant of Gabber rigidity theorem is obtained for a cohomology theory representable in the motivic stable homotopy category…

Let $f,g$ be $C^2$ area-preserving Anosov diffeomorphisms on $\mathbb{T}^2$ which are topologically conjugate by a homeomorphism $h$ ($hf=gh$). We assume that the Jacobian periodic data of $f$ and $g$ are matched by $h$ for all points of…

In this paper we establish combinatorial characterisations of symmetry-generic infinitesimally rigid frameworks in the Euclidean plane for rotational groups of order 4 and 6, and of odd order between 5 and 1000, where a joint may lie at the…

We refine upper bounds on the permanent saturation time of metric graphs using interval exchange transformations (IETs). Earlier results gave bounds under incommensurable edge lengths, we improve and generalize them by using the ergodic and…

We introduce a novel approach linking fractal geometry to partially hyperbolic dynamics, revealing several new phenomena related to regularity jumps and rigidity. One key result demonstrates a sharp phase transition for partially hyperbolic…

In this paper, we investigate a class of non-invertible piecewise isometries on the upper half-plane known as Translated Cone Exchanges. These maps include a simple interval exchange on a boundary we call the baseline. We provide a…
