In this partly expository paper we discuss conditions for the global injectivity of $C^2$ semi-algebraic local diffeomorphisms $f:\mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^n$. In case $n > 2$, we consider the foliations of $\mathbb{R}^n$ defined by the…
Given a connected real Lie group and a contractible homogeneous proper $G$--space $X$ furnished with a $G$--invariant volume form, a real valued volume can be assigned to any representation $\rho\colon \pi_1(M)\to G$ for any oriented closed…
A note connecting arguments scattered in the extant literature proving that, in any o-minimal expansion of the real field, a definable family of sets has the property that the set of parameters corresponding to finite-volume fibers is…
Intrinsic volumes, which generalize both Euler characteristic and Lebesgue volume, are important properties of $d$-dimensional sets. A random cubical complex is a union of unit cubes, each with vertices on a regular cubic lattice,…
In analogy with ordinary simplicial volume, we show that integral foliated simplicial volume of oriented closed connected aspherical $n$-manifolds that admit an open amenable cover of multiplicity at most $n$ is zero. This implies that the…
We introduce the notion of algebraic volume density property for affine algebraic manifolds and prove some important basic facts about it, in particular that it implies the volume density property. The main results of the paper are…
Any compact body in ${\mathbb R}^N$ with smooth boundary defines a two-valued function on the space of affine hyperplanes: the volumes of two parts into which these hyperplanes cut the body. This function is never algebraic if $N$ is even…
A conjecture of Freiman gives an exact formula for the largest volume of a finite set $A$ of integers with given cardinality $k = |A|$ and doubling $T = |2A|$. The formula is known to hold when $T \le 3k-4$, for some small range over $3k-4$…
We consider the relation between simplicial volume and two of its variants: the stable integral simplicial volume and the integral foliated simplicial volume. The definition of the latter depends on a choice of a measure preserving action…
This article deals with the irreducible components of the space of codimension one foliations in a projective space defined by logarithmic forms of a certain degree. We study the geometry of the natural parametrization of the logarithmic…
In this article we study polynomial logarithmic $q$-forms on a projective space and characterize those that define singular foliations of codimension $q$. Our main result is the algebraic proof of their infinitesimal stability when $q=2$…
We study the limits of inductive sequences (A_i,\phi_i) where each A_i is a direct sum of full matrix algebras over compact metric spaces and each partial map of \phi_i is diagonal. We give a new characterisation of simplicity for such…
Intrinsic volumes are fundamental geometric invariants generalizing volume, surface area, and mean width for convex bodies. We establish a unified Laplace-Grassmannian representation for intrinsic and dual volumes of convex polynomial…
This paper develops a unified framework for estimating the volume of a set in $\mathbb{R}^d$ based on observations of points uniformly distributed over the set. The framework applies to all classes of sets satisfying one simple axiom: a…
We prove that if the leaves of a minimal Lie foliation are locally isometric to a symmetric space of non-compact type without a Poincare disk factor, then the foliation is smoothly conjugate to a homogeneous Lie foliation up to finite…
Motivated by problems of uncertainty propagation and robust estimation we are interested in computing a polynomial sublevel set of fixed degree and minimum volume that contains a given semialgebraic set K. At this level of generality this…
We show that the family of semi log canonical pairs with ample log canonical class and with fixed volume is bounded.
Many interesting questions in arithmetic dynamics revolve, in one way or another, around the (local and/or global) reducibility behavior of iterates of a polynomial. We show that for very general families of integer polynomials $f$ (and,…
Stationary and isotropic iteration stable random tessellations are considered, which can be constructed by a random process of cell division. The collection of maximal polytopes at a fixed time $t$ within a convex window $W\subset{\Bbb…
Given a singular foliation, we attach an "essential isotropy" group to each of its leaves, and show that its discreteness is the integrability obstruction of a natural Lie algebroid over the leaf. We show that a condition ensuring…
