Let $E_i$ be an oriented circle bundle over a closed oriented aspherical $n$-manifold $M_i$ with Euler class $e_i\in H^2(M_i;\mathbb{Z})$, $i=1,2$. We prove the following: (i) If every finite-index subgroup of $\pi_1(M_2)$ has trivial…

We prove that quasi-isometries of horospherical products of hyperbolic spaces are geometrically rigid in the sense that they are uniformly close to product maps, this is a generalisation of the result obtained by Eskin, Fisher and Whyte in…

We study the structure of invariant measures for continuous automorphisms of compact metrizable abelian groups satisfying the descending chain condition. We show that the finitely supported invariant measures are weak-* dense in the space…

We prove that any action of a higher rank lattice on a Gromov-hyperbolic space is elementary. More precisely, it is either elliptic or parabolic. This is a large generalization of the fact that any action of a higher rank lattice on a tree…

It is, by now, classical that lattices in higher rank semisimple groups have various rigidity properties. In this work, we add another such rigidity property to the list: uniform stability with respect to the family of unitary operators on…

We prove that every smooth action of Z^k, k>1, on the (k+1)-dimensional torus homotopic to an action by hyperbolic linear maps preserves an absolutely continuous measure. This is a first known result concerning abelian groups of…

We prove that the topological complexity of a finite index subgroup of a hyperbolic group is linear in its index. This follows from a more general result relating the size of the quotient of a free cocompact action of hyperbolic group on a…

We consider a log-Riemann surface $\mathcal{S}$ with a finite number of ramification points and finitely generated fundamental group. The log-Riemann surface is equipped with a local holomorphic difffeomorphism $\pi : \mathcal{S} \to \C$.…

We consider a singular holomorphic foliation $\uF$ defined near a compact curve $\uC$ of a complex surface. Under some hypothesis on $(\uF,\uC)$ we prove that there exists a system of tubular neighborhoods $U$ of a curve $\underline{\mc D}$…

H-holomorphic maps are a parameter version of J-holomorphic maps into contact manifolds. They have arisen in efforts to prove the existence of higher--genus holomorphic open book decompositions and efforts to prove the existence of finite…

In this article, we discuss some properties of holomorphic fibrations in the complex analytic setting.

In this paper, we combine tools from pluripotential theory and commutative algebra to study singularity invariants of plurisubharmonic functions. We establish several relationships between the singularity invariants of plurisubharmonic…

Let f:(Y,g)->(X,g_0) be a non zero degree continuous map between compact K\"ahler manifolds of dimension greater or equal to 2, where g_0 has constant negative holomorphic sectional curvature. Adapting the Besson-Courtois-Gallot barycentre…

Gromov asked if the bi-invariant metrics on a compact Lie group are extremal compared to any other metrics. In this note, we prove that the bi-invariant metrics on a compact connected semi-simple Lie group $G$ are extremal (in fact rigid)…

Assume that two algebraic varieties of finite type over the complex numbers are related by a morphism whose fibers are precisely the orbits for the action of a unipotent group. We show that the two varieties have the same topological Euler…

The Runge approximation theorem for holomorphic maps (U -> C) is a fundamental result in complex analysis. The aim of this article is to prove such a result for (pseudo-)holomorphic maps from a compact Riemann surface to a compact…

We show that the structure of proper holomorphic maps between the $n$-fold symmetric products, $n\geq 2$, of a pair of non-compact Riemann surfaces $X$ and $Y$, provided these are reasonably nice, is very rigid. Specifically, any such map…

We introduce new biholomorphic invariants for real-analytic hypersurfaces in 2-dimensional complex space and show how they can be used to show that a hypersurface possesses few automorphisms. We give conditions, in terms of the new…

We prove that if two analytic multicritical circle maps with the same bounded type rotation number are topologically conjugate by a conjugacy which matches the critical points of the two maps while preserving the orders of their…

We present some results dealing with the local geometry of almost complex manifolds. We establish mainly the complete hyperbolicity of strictly pseudoconvex domains, the extension of plurisubharmonic functions through generic submanifolds…
