Let G be a semi-simple Lie group and Q a parabilic subgroup of its complexification G^\mathbb C, then Z:=G^\mathbb C/Q is a compact complex homogeneous manifold. Moreover, G as well as K^\mathbb C, the complexification of the maximal…

We show that every rank two $p$-group acts freely and smoothly on a product of two spheres. This follows from a more general construction: given a smooth action of a finite group $G$ on a manifold $M$, we construct a smooth free action on…

The author proved that if the circle acts symplectically on a compact, connected symplectic manifold $M$ with three fixed points, then $M$ is equivariantly symplectomorphic to some standard action on $\mathbb{CP}^2$. In this paper, we…

Consider a Hamiltonian circle action on a closed $8$-dimensional symplectic manifold $M$ with exactly five fixed points, which is the smallest possible fixed set. In their paper, L. Godinho and S. Sabatini show that if $M$ satisfies an…

Given a compact Riemannian manifold $M^{n+1}$ with dimension $3\leq n+1\leq 7$ and $\partial M\neq\emptyset$, the free boundary min-max theory built by Martin Man-Chun Li and Xin Zhou shows the existence of a smooth almost properly embedded…

We obtain an upper bound for the number of critical points of the systole function on $\mathcal{M}_g$. Besides, we obtain an upper bound for the number of those critical points whose systole is smaller than a constant.

In this note we derive an upper bound on the number of 2-spheres in the fixed point set of a smooth and homologically trivial cyclic group action of prime order on a simply-connected 4-manifold. This improves the a priori bound which is…

Given a smooth closed oriented manifold $M$ of dimension $n$ embedded in $\mathbb{R}^{n+2}$ we study properties of the `solid angle' function $\Phi\colon\mathbb{R}^{n+2}\setminus M\to S^1$. It turns out that a non-critical level set of…

This work surveys a recently developed approach to the study of free point particles on Riemannian manifolds, based on the Kirillov orbit method, geometric quantization, and the geometry of Lagrangian submanifolds. We discuss that given a…

We discuss the free cyclic submodules over an associative ring $R$ with unity. Special attention is paid to those, which are generated by outliers. This paper describes all orbits of such submodules in the ring of lower triangular $3$x$3$…

Given a smooth manifold $M$ equipped with a properly and discontinuous smooth action of a discrete group $G$, the nerve $M_{\bullet}G$ is a simplicial manifold and its vector space of differential forms…

We prove that on a metrizable, compact, zero-dimensional space every free action of an amenable group is measurably isomorphic to a minimal $G$-action with the same, i.e. affinely homeomorphic, simplex of measures.

Let $G$ be a noncompact real algebraic group and $\G<G$ a lattice. One purpose of this paper is to show that there is an smooth, volume preserving, mixing action of $G$ or $\G$ on a compact manifold which admits a smooth deformation. We…

Basepoint free cycles on the moduli space $\overline{M}_{0,n}$ of stable n-pointed rational curves, defined using Gromov-Witten invariants of smooth projective homogeneous spaces X are studied. Intersection formulas to find classes are…

Let $G$ be a compact Lie group acting isometrically on a compact Riemannian manifold $M$ with nonempty fixed point set $M^G$. We say that $M$ is fixed-point homogeneous if $G$ acts transitively on a normal sphere to some component of $M^G$.…

In this paper, we first develop a mini-max theory of the action functional over the semi-infinite cycles via the chain level Floer homology theory and construct spectral invariants of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms on arbitrary compact…

If $G$ is a compact group acting continuously on a compact metric space $(X, m)$, we prove two results that generalize Dirichlet's classical theorem on Diophantine approximation. If $G$ is a noncommutative compact group of isometries, we…

We show that the set of all (unimodular and non-unimodular) free cyclic submodules of T^2, where T is the ring of ternions over a commutative field, admits a point model in terms of a smooth algebraic variety.

Kawakubo and Uchida showed that, if a closed oriented $4k$-dimensional manifold $M$ admits a semi-free circle action such that the dimension of the fixed point set is less than $2k$, then the signature of $M$ vanishes. In this note, by…
