We revisit the topic of probability measures on CAT(0) cube complexes and prove that an amenable group acting on a CAT(0) cube complex, regardless of dimension, necessarily preserves an interval in the Roller compactification. In the finite…

It has been pointed out in recent papers that the example considered earlier in the O(N) sigma-model to test whether fixed-point actions are 1-loop perfect actually checked classical perfection only. To clarify the issue we constructed the…

Inspired by constructions of Kova\v{c}evi\'{c}, we introduce the amalgamated free product of circle actions, obtained by blowing up two actions along prescribed orbits and rearranging the inserted intervals. Under natural orbit and index…

Let $G$ be a compact Lie group. Let ${\mathsf{F}}_n$ be the free group of rank $n$. We describe the orbits of ${\mathsf{Aut}}(\mathsf{F}_n)$ on ${\mathsf{Hom}}(\mathsf{F}_n;G)$ when $n$ is sufficiently large. The dynamics stabilizes: orbit…

Consider actions of $\Z ^r$ by ergodic automorphisms on a compact nilmanifolds for $r \geq 2$. We show that small $C^k$ perturbations of such higher rank partially hyperbolic actions are smoothly conjugate to the original action, using a…

We investigate conformal actions of cocompact lattices in higher-rank simple Lie groups on compact pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. Our main result gives a general bound on the real-rank of the lattice, which was already known for the action of…

We provide a tool for studying properly discontinuous actions of non-compact groups on locally compact, connected and paracompact spaces, by embedding such an action in a suitable zero-dimensional compactification of the underlying space…

Three properness conditions for actions of locally compact groups on C*-algebras are studied, as well as their dual analogues for coactions. To motivate the properness conditions for actions, the commutative cases (actions on spaces) are…

Let $X$ be an algebraic variety over $\mathbb{C}$ and $G$ be an algebraic group acting on $X$ whose action is closed. J. Poineau defined a compactification $X^\urcorner$ of $X(\mathbb{C})$ by using hybrid Berkovich spaces. We will focus on…

In the context of (not necessarily minimal) actions, we consider the mean diameter and use it to characterize regular factor maps. Building on this characterization, we prove that an action is diam-mean equicontinuous if and only if it is a…

Suppose that a compact quantum group ${\mathcal Q}$ acts faithfully on a smooth, compact, connected manifold $M$, i.e. has a $C^{\ast}$ (co)-action $\alpha$ on $C(M)$, such that $\alpha(C^\infty(M)) \subseteq C^\infty(M, {\mathcal Q})$ and…

Some aspects of phase transitions can be more conveniently studied in the orbit space of the action of the symmetry group. After a brief review of the fundamental ideas of this approach, I shall concentrate on the mathematical aspect and…

Let $(M,\omega)$ be a K\"ahler manifold and let $K$ be a compact group that acts on $M$ in a Hamiltonian fashion. We study the action of $K^\mathbb{C}$ on probability measures on $M$. First of all we identify an abstract setting for the…

The main theme of this paper is the connection between the existence of infinitely many periodic orbits for a Hamiltonian system and the behavior of its action or index spectrum under iterations. We use the action and index spectra to show…

We study the problem of classifying stationary measures and orbit closures for non-abelian action on a surface with a given smooth invariant measure. Using a result of Brown and Rodriguez Hertz, we show that under a certain finite…

Let $G$ be a totally disconnected, locally compact group and let $H$ be an equicontinuously (for example, compactly) generated group of automorphisms of $G$. We show that every distal action of $H$ on a coset space of $G$ is a SIN action,…

We prove that every expanding minimal semigroup action of $C^1$ diffeomorphisms of a compact manifold (resp. $C^{1+\alpha}$ conformal) is robustly minimal (resp. ergodic with respect to Lebesgue measure). We also show how, locally, a…

Semiclassical sum rules, such as the Gutzwiller trace formula, depend on the properties of periodic, closed, or homoclinic (heteroclinic) orbits. The interferences embedded in such orbit sums are governed by classical action functions and…

In the first part of this paper, we formulate a general setting in which to study the ergodic theory of differentiable $\mathbb{Z}^d$-actions preserving a Borel probability measure. This framework includes actions by $C^{1+\text{H\"older}}$…

In this note, we consider the dynamics associated to an epsilon-perturbation of an integrable Hamiltonian system in action-angle coordinates in any number of degrees of freedom and we prove the following result of "micro-diffusion": under…
