We prove that for a generic measure preserving transformation $T$, the closed group generated by $T$ is a continuous homomorphic image of a closed linear subspace of $L_0(\lambda,{\mathbb R})$, where $\lambda$ is Lebesgue measure, and that…

We show that if $X$ is a Stein space and, if $\Omega \subset X$ is exhaustable by a sequence $\Omega_1 \subset \Omega_2 \subset \ldots \subset \Omega_n \subset \ldots$ of open Stein subsets of $X$, then $\Omega$ is Stein. This generalizes a…

The paper is an informal report on joint work with Stefan Haller on Dynamics in relation with Topology and Spectral Geometry. By dynamics one means a smooth vector field on a closed smooth manifold; the elements of dynamics of concern are…

We provide an estimate of the amenable category of oriented closed connected complete affine manifolds whose fundamental group contains an infinite amenable normal subgroup. As an application we show that all such manifolds have zero…

We investigate the class of compact complex Hermitian-symplectic manifolds $X$. For each Hermitian-symplectic metric $\omega$ on $X$, we introduce a functional acting on the metrics in the Aeppli cohomology class of $\omega$ and prove that…

We explore a particular approach to the analysis of dynamical and geometrical properties of autonomous, Pfaffian non-holonomic systems in classical mechanics. The method is based on the construction of a certain auxiliary constrained…

We are interested in the numerical simulations of the Euler system with variable congestion encoded by a singular pressure. This model describes for instance the macroscopic motion of a crowd with individual congestion preferences. We…

We study notions of persistent homotopy groups of compact metric spaces together with their stability properties in the Gromov-Hausdorff sense. We pay particular attention to the case of fundamental groups, for which we obtain a more…

Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold of dimension 3 and let $f:X\rightarrow X$ be a pseudo-automorphism. Under the mild condition that $\lambda_1(f)^2>\lambda_2(f)$, we prove the existence of invariant positive closed $(1,1)$ and $(2,2)$…

We study the dynamics of the group of holomorphic automorphisms of the affine cubic surfaces \begin{align*} S_{A,B,C,D} = \{(x,y,z) \in \mathbb{C}^3 \, : \, x^2 + y^2 + z^2 +xyz = Ax + By+Cz+D\}, \end{align*} where $A,B,C,$ and $D$ are…

We study complete, finite volume $n$-manifolds $M$ of bounded nonpositive sectional curvature. A classical theorem of Gromov says that if such $M$ has negative curvature then it is homeomorphic to the interior of a compact…

We study the group of volume-preserving diffeomorphisms on a manifold. We develop a general theory of implicit generating forms. Our results generalize the classical formulas for generating functions of symplectic twist maps.

In this article, we study the regularity of minimizing and stationary $p$-harmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds. The aim is obtaining Minkowski-type volume estimates on the singular set $S(f)=\{x \ \ s.t. \ \ f \text{ is not continuous…

We propose a coordinate-invariant geometric formulation of the GENERIC stochastic differential equation, unifying reversible Hamiltonian and irreversible dissipative dynamics within a differential-geometric framework. Our construction…

We investigate generic properties (i.e. properties corresponding to residual sets) in the space of subshifts with the Hausdorff metric. Our results deal with four spaces: the space $\mathbf{S}$ of all subshifts, the space…

The helicity, or asymptotic linking number, is a functional of exact volume-preserving vector fields on 3-manifolds, invariant under volume-preserving transformations. It is known to exhibit remarkable uniqueness properties: many invariant…

We construct finite dimensional families of non-steady solutions to the Euler equations, existing for all time, and exhibiting all kinds of qualitative dynamics in the phase space, for example: strange attractors and chaos, invariant…

The dynamics of a general Bianchi IX model with three scale factors is examined. The matter content of the model is assumed to be comoving dust plus a positive cosmological constant. The model presents a critical point of…

We prove the saturation of a generalized partially hyperbolic attractor of a $C^2$ map. As a consequence, we show that any generalized partially hyperbolic horseshoe-like attractor of a $C^1$-generic diffeomorphism has zero volume. In…
