In this article, we prove several results about the extension to the boundary of conformal immersions from an open subset $\Omega$ of a Riemannian manifold $L$, into another Riemannian manifold $N$ of the same dimension. In dimension $n…

We prove that the minimally displaced set of a relatively irreducible automorphism of a free splitting, situated in a deformation space, is uniformly locally finite. The minimally displaced set coincides with the train track points for an…

We study the massless flows described by the staircase model introduced by Al.B. Zamolodchikov through the analytic continuation of the sinh-Gordon S-matrix, focusing on the renormalisation group flow from the tricritical to the critical…

Let F be a foliation in a closed 3-manifold with negatively curved fundamental group and suppose that F is almost transverse to a quasigeodesic pseudo-Anosov flow. We show that the leaves of the foliation in the universal cover extend…

We systematically study Schottky group actions on homogeneous rational manifolds and find two new families besides those given by Nori's well-known construction. This yields new examples of non-K\"ahler compact complex manifolds having free…

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…

We study piecewise-smooth systems with three zones, $\dot{z} = f_i(z)$, $i = 1,2,3,$ whose discontinuity set $\Sigma$ consists either of a pair of parallel lines or a pair of circles tangent to each other internally or externally. Each…

This paper gives a detailed analysis of the Cannon--Thurston maps associated to a general class of hyperbolic free group extensions. Let $F_N$ denote a free groups of finite rank $N\ge 3$ and consider a \emph{convex cocompact} subgroup…

We continue to study a certain dynamical theory of 3-forms in seven dimensions, which can be viewed as a non-linear 7D analog of the 3D Abelian Chern-Simons theory. We perform the 6+1 split and show that the theory propagates 3 degrees of…

In \cite{BAMU}, an ergodic theorem \`a la Birkhoff-von Neumann for the action of the fundamental group of a compact negatively curved manifold on the boundary of its universal cover is proved. A quick corollary is the irreducibility of the…

Let $\Sigma$ be a compact orientable surface of finite type with at least one boundary component. Let $\Gamma \leq \textup{Mod}(\Sigma)$ be a non virtually solvable subgroup. We answer a question of Lubotzky by showing that there exists a…

We study the cubic vertices for Maxwell-like higher-spins in flat and (A)dS background spaces of any dimension. Reducibility of their free spectra implies that a single cubic vertex involving any three fields subsumes a number of couplings…

The object of this expository work is to try to unveil the topological/geometric intuition behind the theory of free groups and their automorphism and outer automorphism groups. The method we follow is to focus on a series of problems in…

We consider orientation-preserving actions of finite groups $G$ on pairs $(S^3, \Sigma)$, where $\Sigma$ denotes a compact connected surface embedded in $S^3$. In a previous paper, we considered the case of closed, necessarily orientable…

In this paper, we construct a geometrical compactification of the geodesic flow of non-compact complete hyperbolic surfaces $\Sigma$ without cusps having finitely generated fundamental group. We study the dynamical properties of the…

Rotor walk is deterministic counterpart of random walk on graphs. We study that under a certain initial configuration in Z^d, n particles perform rotor walks from the origin consecutively. They would stop if they hit the origin or infinity.…

We present a new approach to the proof of ergodic theorems for actions of free groups based on geometric covering and asymptotic invariance arguments. Our approach can be viewed as a direct generalization of the classical geometric covering…

We study $\mathbb Z$- and $\mathbb N$-extensions of interval maps with at most countably many full branches modelling one-dimensional random walks without and with a reflective boundary. We analyse the associated Gurevich pressure and…

The purpose of this report is to acknowledge the influence of M. Gromov's vision of geometry on our own works. It is two-fold: in the first part we aim at describing some results, in dimension 3, around the question: which open 3-manifolds…

The main result of this article is that if a $3$-manifold $M$ supports an Anosov flow, then the number of conjugacy classes in the fundamental group of $M$ grows exponentially fast with the length of the shortest orbit representative,…
