We characterize isometric actions whose principal orbits are hypersurfaces through the existence of a linear connection satisfying a set of covariant equations in the same spirit as the Ambrose-Singer Theorem for homogeneous space. These…
Let $G$ be a compactly generated locally compact group and $(\pi, \mathcal H)$ a unitary representation of $G.$ The $1$-cocycles with coefficients in $\pi$ which are harmonic (with respect to a suitable probability measure on $G$) represent…
Let $X=G/\Gamma$ be the quotient of a semisimple Lie group $G$ by its non-cocompact arithmetic lattice. Let $H$ be a reductive algebraic subgroup of $G$ acting on $X$. We give several equivalent algebraic conditions on $H$ for the existence…
We prove a Simons-type holonomy theorem for totally skew 1-forms with values in a Lie algebra of linear isometries. The only transitive case, for this theorem, is the full orthogonal group. We only use geometric methods and we do not use…
We consider orbit configuration spaces associated to finite groups acting freely by orientation preserving homeomorphisms on the $2$-sphere minus a finite number of points. Such action is equivalent to a homography action of a finite…
We consider compact manifolds $M$ with a cohomogeneity one action of a compact Lie group $G$ such that the orbit space $M/G$ is a closed interval. For $T$ a maximal torus of $G$, we find necessary and sufficient conditions on the group…
By proving that, if the quotient space S(X) of the connected components of the locally compact metric space (X,d) is compact, then the full group I(X,d) of isometries of X is closed in C(X,X) with respect to the pointwise topology, i.e.,…
This paper proves that there are no compact forms for a large class of homogeneous spaces admitting actions by higher-rank semisimple Lie groups. It builds on Zimmer's approach for studying such spaces using cocycle superrigidity. The proof…
We show that non-collapsed $\text{RCD}(K,3)$ spaces without boundary are orbifolds whose topological singularities are locally finite and locally homeomorphic to cones over $\mathbb{RP}^2$, and that the topology of such spaces is stable…
Cohomogeneity one actions on irreducible Riemannian symmetric spaces of compact type are classified into three cases: Hermann actions, actions induced by the linear isotropy representation of a Riemannian symmetric space of rank 2, and…
We verify Shalom's conjecture for the simple real-rank-one Lie group Sp(n ,1) for any n: i.e. we show that it admits a metrically proper affine action on a Hilbert space whose linear part is a uniformly bounded representation. We provide…
Let $\mathbb{G}$ denote a higher rank $\mathbb R$-split simple Lie group of the following type: $SL(n,\mathbb R)$, $SO_o(m,m)$, $E_{6(6)}$, $E_{7(7)}$ and $E_{8(8)}$, where $m\geq 4$ and $n \geq 3$. We study the cohomological equation for…
We classify cohomogeneity one actions on smooth, simply connected, closed manifolds with the rational cohomology of a sphere. In particular, we show that such a manifold is diffeomorphic to a sphere, a Brieskorn variety, the Wu manifold…
In this work, we mainly study the one-loop effective action for real scalar theories in non-homogeneous backgrounds in odd dimensions. It is shown that through the method studied in Ref. [1], it is possible to obtain a unified result for…
This paper establishes the existence of forward complete cohomogeneity one $\mathrm{Spin}(7)$ metrics with generic Aloff--Wallach spaces $N_{k,l}$ as principal orbits and $\mathbb{CP}^2$ as the singular orbit, building on Reidegeld's…
We construct centrally large subalgebras in crossed products of $C (X, D)$ by automorphisms in which $D$ is simple, $X$ is compact metrizable, the automorphism induces a minimal homeomorphism of $X$, and a mild technical assumption holds.…
We establish topological regularity and stability of N-dimensional RCD(K,N) spaces (up to a small singular set), also called non-collapsed RCD(K,N) in the literature. We also introduce the notion of a boundary of such spaces and study its…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety of dimension $d$ over an algebraically closed field $k$. The main goal of this paper is to study, in the context of Voevodsky's triangulated category of motives $DM_k$, the group…
We consider cohomogeneity one homogeneous disk bundles and adress the question when these admit a nonnegatively curved invariant metric with normal collar, i.e., such that near the boundary the metric is the product of an interval and a…
In this paper, we introduce stable recursive subhomogeneous algebras (SRSHAs), which is analogous to recursive subhomogeneous algebras (RSHAs) introduced by N. C. Phillips in the studies of free minimal integer actions on compact metric…
