We survey recent progress on the cohomology of moduli spaces of stable curves through the lens of the Hodge and Tate conjectures, especially their generalized coniveau forms, which relate Hodge structures and l-adic Galois representations…

We construct examples in any odd dimension of contact manifolds with finite and non-zero algebraic torsion (in the sense of Latschev-Wendl), which are therefore tight and do not admit strong symplectic fillings. We prove that Giroux torsion…

In this paper, we study combinatorial properties of stable curves. To the dual graph of any nodal curve, it is naturally associated a group, which is the group of components of the N\'eron model of the generalized Jacobian of the curve. We…

We define Strebel differentials for stable complex curves, prove the existence and uniqueness theorem that generalizes Strebel's theorem for smooth curves, prove that Strebel differentials form a continuous family over the moduli space of…

In this paper, we give a short and self-contained proof to a 1991 conjecture by Moore concerning the structure of certain finite-dimensional Gromov--Hausdorff limits, in the ANR setting. As a consequence, one easily characterizes finite…

In this paper, we prove a rigidity theorem for smooth strictly convex domains in Euclidean spaces.

We consider uniformly (DC) or periodically (AC) driven generalized infinite elastic chains (a generalized Frenkel-Kontorova model) with gradient dynamics. We first show that the union of supports of all the invariant measures, denoted by A,…

The purpose of this note is to discuss several results that have been obtained in the last decade in the context of sharp adjoint Fourier restriction/Strichartz inequalities. Rather than aiming at full generality, we focus on several…

The boundary rigidity problem is a classical question from Riemannian geometry: if $(M, g)$ is a Riemannian manifold with smooth boundary, is the geometry of $M$ determined up to isometry by the metric $d_g$ induced on the boundary…

In this note we present various extensions of Obata's rigidity theorem concerning the Hessian of a function on a Riemannian manifold. They include general rigidity theorems for the generalized Obata equation, and hyperbolic and Euclidean…

A multimode optical fiber with a truncated transverse cross section acts as a powerful versatile support to investigate the wave features of complex ray dynamics. In this paper, we concentrate on the case of a geometry inducing a mixed…

Several properly countable unions of algebraic sets in $\mathbb{C}^n$ are definable in $\mathbb{C}(t)$ including the set CM of $j$-invariants of complex elliptic curves with complex multiplication. It has been suggested that one could prove…

We describe a new and robust method to prove rigidity results in complex dynamics. The new ingredient is the geometry of the critical puzzle pieces: under control of geometry and ``complex bounds'', two generalized polynomial-like maps…

We prove a theorem on structural stability of smooth attractor-repellor endomorphisms of compact manifolds, with singularities. By attractor-repellor, we mean that the non-wandering set of the dynamics $f$ is the disjoint union of a…

Inspired by the recent results toward Birkhoff conjecture (a rigidity property of billiards in ellipses), we discuss two rigidity properties of conics. The first one concerns symmetries of an analog of polar duality associated with an oval,…

We present sufficient conditions so that a conformal map between planar domains whose boundary components are Jordan curves or points has a continuous or homeomorphic extension to the closures of the domains. Our conditions involve the…

We prove a generalization of Gromov's conjecture on scalar curvature rigidity of convex polytopes to arbitrary convex Riemannian polytope type domains via harmonic spinors on convex domians with boundary condition constructed by Brendle. In…

We study the asymptotic dynamics of multi-bubble solutions to the focusing energy-critical wave equation in five dimensions. Assuming that the solution asymptotically decomposes into a finite superposition of spatially separated bubbles…

We introduce a direct generalization of the Weinstein conjecture to closed, Lichnerowicz exact, locally conformally symplectic manifolds, (for short $\lcs$ manifolds). This conjectures existence of certain 2-curves in the manifold, which we…
