We define cusp-decomposable manifolds and prove smooth rigidity within this class of manifolds. These manifolds generally do not admit a nonpositively curved metric but can be decomposed into pieces that are diffeomorphic to finite volume,…

We prove that a (branched) minimal immersion from $\mathbb{C}$ to $\mathbb{R}^n$ is stable if and only if it lives in an even dimensional affine subspace and is holomorphic for some orthogonal complex structure on the subspace. More…

We study periodic orbits for area-preserving surface diffeomorphisms, particularly some global properities related to the action function and rotation numbers. We generalize recent works of Machel Hutchings [4], proving the existence of…

We prove that an asymptotically linear Hamiltonian diffeomorphism of the standard symplectic vector space, which is non-degenerate and unitary at infinity and approaches its linear map at infinity quickly enough, has infinitely many…

We consider closed orientable surfaces $S$ of genus $g>1$ and homeomorphisms $f:S\rightarrow S$ homotopic to the identity. A set of hypotheses is presented, called fully essential system of curves $\mathscr{C}$ and it is shown that under…

In the current study, the existence of periodic orbits around a fixed homogeneous cube is investigated, and the results have powerful implications for examining periodic orbits around non-spherical celestial bodies. In the two different…

In this article we investigate rigidity properties of integrable area-preserving twist maps of the cylinder. More specifically, we prove that if a deformation of the standard integrable map preserves rotational invariant circles (i.e.,…

We investigate global continuation of periodic orbits of a differential equation depending on a parameter, assuming that a closed 1-form satisfying certain properties exists. We begin by extending the global continuation theory of…

We consider stable manifolds of a holomorphic diffeomorphism of a complex manifold. Using a conjugation of the dynamics to a (non-stationary) polynomial normal form, we show that typical stable manifolds are biholomorphic to complex…

For a surface diffeomorphism, a compact invariant locally maximal set $W$ and some subset $A\subset W$ we study the $A$-exceptional set, that is, the set of points whose orbits do not accumulate at $A$. We show that if the Hausdorff…
