We consider homogeneous STIT tessellations in the $\ell$-dimensional Euclidean space ${\mathbb R}^\ell$. Based on results for the spatial $\beta$-mixing coefficient an upper bound for the variance of additive functionals of tessellations is…

The notion of spherically symmetric superfunctions as functions invariant under the orthosymplectic group is introduced. This leads to dimensional reduction theorems for differentiation and integration in superspace. These spherically…

This work is devoted to the study of minimal, smooth actions of finitely generated groups on the circle. We provide a sufficient condition for such an action to be ergodic (with respect to the Lebesgue measure), and we illustrate this…

The entangled ergodic theorem concerns the study of the convergence in the strong, or merely weak operator topology, of the multiple Cesaro mean $$\frac{1}{N^{k}}\sum_{n_{1},...,n_{k}=0}^{N-1} U^{n_{\a(1)}}A_{1}U^{n_{\a(2)}}...…

Using techniques from geometry and complex analysis in their simplest form, we present a derivation of electric fields on surfaces with non-trivial topology. A byproduct of this analysis is an intuitive visualization of elliptic functions…

We review the teory of the pseudo-iperbolic functions on the basis of an algebraic point of view which employs the Eisenstein group. We frame the teory within the general context of the number decomposition and discuss the importance of…

Over a large class of function fields, we show that the solutions of some linear equations in the topological closure of a certain subgroup of the group of units in the function field are exactly the solutions that are already in the…

We survey recent work on the dynamics of the outer automorphism group of a word hyperbolic group on spaces of (conjugacy classes of) representations ofthe group into a semi-simple Lie group G. All these results are motivated by the fact…

Let $\Gamma$ be a non-elementary Gromov-hyperbolic group, and $\partial \Gamma$ denote its Gromov boundary. We consider $\Gamma$-invariant proper $\delta$-hyperbolic, quasi-convex metric $d$ on $\Gamma$, and the associated…

A compact metric space $X$ and a discrete topological acting group $T$ give a flow $(X,T)$. Robert Ellis had initiated the study of dynamical properties of the flow $(X,T)$ via the algebraic properties of its "Enveloping Semigroup" $E(X)$.…

We extend Teichmueller dynamics to a flow on the total space of a flat bundle of deformation spaces of representations of the fundamental group of a fixed surface S in a Lie group G. The resulting dynamical system is a continuous version of…

We discuss how the global geometry and topology of manifolds depend on different group actions of their fundamental groups, and in particular, how properties of a non-trivial compact 4-dimensional cobordism $M$ whose interior has a complete…

In this paper we generalize Kingman's sub-additive ergodic theorem to a large class of infinite countable discrete amenable group actions.

The purpose of this expository note is to give a proof of a Schur-type theorem that characterizes the inner functions in terms of their Taylor coefficients. In view of Beurling's theorem, this provides a sequential characterization of the…

We define a Chern-Simons invariant for a certain class of infinite volume hyperbolic 3-manifolds. We then prove an expression relating the Bergman tau function on a cover of the Hurwitz space, to the lifting of the function $F$ defined by…

This paper studies properties of entropy functions that are induced by groups and subgroups. We showed that many information theoretic properties of those group induced entropy functions also have corresponding group theoretic…

We prove a semisimplicity result for the boundary, in the corresponding Deligne-Mumford compactification, of a totally geodesic subvariety of a moduli space of Riemann surfaces. At the level of Teichm\"uller space, this semisimplicity…

We give two flexible and degenerate constructions related to a theorem of Thurston. First, we produce geodesic segments for Thurston's asymmetric metric on Teichm\"uller space $\mathcal{T}(S_g)$ that remain geodesics after adding arbitrary…

In this paper we define a Donaldson type functional whose Euler-Lagrange equations are a system of differential equations which corresponds to Hitchin's self-duality equations for a suitable choice of Higgs bundle on closed Riemann…

We construct an Ahlfors-Bers complex analytic model for the Teichm\"uller space of the universal hyperbolic lamination (also known as Sullivan's Teichm\"uller space) and the renormalized Weil-Petersson metric on it as an extension of the…
