This paper is about topological rigidity of diagonal group actions on the homogeneous $\SL_4\big(\F(\!(t^{-1})\!)\big)/\SL_4(\F[t])$ where $\F$ is a finite field of characteristic $3$. We show that there is a non-closed relatively compact…
We prove that for any nonlinear $f \in C^{1,\alpha}([0,1])$, the union of lines covering its graph has a Hausdorff dimension of at least $1+\alpha$, and this dimension bound is sharp. We then apply these geometric results to mathematical…
Let X be a connected open set in n-dimensional Euclidean space, partially ordered by a closed convex cone K with nonempty interior: y > x if and only if y-x is nonzero and in K. Theorem: If F is a monotone local flow in X whose periodic…
In this paper we consider non-singular Morse-Smale flows on closed orientable 3-manifolds, under the assumption that among the periodic orbits of the flow there is only one saddle orbit and it is twisted. It is found that any manifold…
For each connected alternating tangle, we provide an infinite family of non-left-orderable L-spaces. This gives further support for Conjecture [3] of Boyer, Gordon, and Watson that is a rational homology 3-sphere is an L-space if and only…
In this paper, we prove that if $S\subseteq\mathbb{R}^d$ is hyperplane absolute winning on a closed hyperplane diffuse set $L\subseteq\mathbb{R}^d$, then $\mathrm{dim}_H S\cap K=\mathrm{dim}_H K$ for any irreducible self-conformal set…
We consider Reeb flows on the tight $3$-sphere admitting a pair of closed orbits forming a Hopf link. If the rotation numbers associated to the transverse linearized dynamics at these orbits fail to satisfy a certain resonance condition…
Using the theory of plugs and the self-insertion construction due to the second author, we prove that a foliation of any codimension of any manifold can be modified in a real analytic or piecewise-linear fashion so that all minimal sets…
Let $X = G/\Gamma$, where $G$ is a Lie group and $\Gamma$ is a lattice in $G$, let $U$ be an open subset of $X$, and let $\{g_t\}$ be a one-parameter subgroup of $G$. Consider the set of points in $X$ whose $g_t$-orbit misses $U$; it has…
Given a closed hyperbolic 3-manifold M with a quasigeodesic flow we construct a \pi_1-equivariant sphere-filling curve in the boundary of hyperbolic space. Specifically, we show that any complete transversal P to the lifted flow on H^3 has…
We investigate the set of $x \in S^1$ such that for every positive integer $N$, the first $N$ points in the orbit of $x$ under rotation by irrational $\theta$ contain at least as many values in the interval $[0,1/2]$ as in the complement.…
In this paper we compute the Hausdorff dimension of the set D_n of points on divergent trajectories of the homogeneous flow induced by a certain one-parameter subgroup of G=SL(2,R) acting by left multiplication on the product space…
We show the existence of a dense orbit for real Rel flows on the area-1 locus of every connected component of every stratum of holomorphic 1-forms with at least 2 distinct zeros. For this purpose, we establish a general density criterion…
We give examples of closed, oriented 3-manifolds whose fundamental groups are not isomorphic, but yet have the same sets of finite quotient groups; hence the same profinite completions. We also give examples of compact, oriented 3-manifolds…
We show that the maximal orbit dimension of a simultaneous Lie group action on n copies of a manifold does not pseudo-stabilize when n increases. We also show that if a Lie group action is (locally) effective on subsets of a manifold, then…
We study the set of irregular points for topologically mixing subshifts of finite type. It is well known that despite the irregular set having zero measure for every invariant measure, it has full topological entropy and full Hausdorff…
An example due to Pisier shows that two commuting, completely polynomially bounded Hilbert space operators may not be simultaneously similar to contractions. Thus, while each operator is individually similar to a contraction, the pair is…
We prove that in dimension 3, Anosov flows which are $\mathbb{R}$-covered and skewed are orbit equivalent to Reeb-Anosov flows. We characterize the existence of an invariant contact form or of a Birkhoff section with a given boundary, in…
We show that any nonzero orbit under a noncompact, simple, irreducible linear group is dense in the Bohr compactification of the ambient space.
We give a new Hausdorff content bound for limsup sets, which is related to Falconer's sets of large intersection. Falconer's sets of large intersection satisfy a content bound for all balls in a space. In comparison, our main theorem only…
