This paper can be considered as an extension to our paper [On symplectically harmonic forms on six-dimensional nilmanifolds, Comment. Math. Helv. 76 (2001), n 1, 89-109]. Also, it contains a brief survey of recent results on symplectically…
We consider orbifolds as diffeological spaces. This gives rise to a natural notion of differentiable maps between orbifolds, making them into a subcategory of diffeology. We prove that the diffeological approach to orbifolds is equivalent…
This paper deals with classifying the dynamics of {\it Topologically Anosov} plane homeomorphisms. We prove that a Topologically Anosov homeomorphism $f:\mathbb{R}^2 \to \mathbb{R}^2$ is conjugate to a homothety if it is the time one map of…
This thesis provides a classification of generalized pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms up to topological conjugacy using an algorithmic approach. A Markov partition of a generalized pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism is a decomposition of the surface…
Given any compact manifold M, we construct a non-empty open subset O of the space of C^1-diffeomorphisms of M and a dense subset D of O such that the centralizer of every diffeomorphism in D is uncountable, hence non-trivial.
The purpose of this paper is to present, for all $n\ge 3$, very simple examples of continuous maps $f:M^{n-1} \to M^{n}$ from closed $(n-1)$-manifolds $M^{n-1}$ into closed $n$-manifold $M^n$ such that even though the singular set $S(f)$ of…
The volume contraction obeys a large deviation rule.
We completely describe the Gromov-Hausdorff closure of the class of length spaces being homeomorphic to a fixed closed surface.
We introduce Smale A-homeomorphisms that includes regular, semi-chaotic, chaotic, and super chaotic homeomorphisms of topo\-lo\-gi\-cal $n$-manifold $M^n$, $n\geq 2$. Smale A-homeo\-mor\-p\-hisms contain A-diffeomorphisms (in particular,…
We classify non-algebraic compact K\"ahler threefolds admitting an endomorphism $f: X \to X$ of degree at least two.
We characterize which 3-dimensional Seifert manifolds admit transitive partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms. In particular, a circle bundle over a higher-genus surface admits a transitive partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism if and only if…

Following the works of Y. Benoist, P. Foulon and F. Labourie \cite{BFL}, and having in mind the standing conjecture about the algebricity of Anosov actions of $\mathbb{R}^k$, we propose some geometrical conditions which generalize the…
Let $f$ be a germ of holomorphic diffeomorphism of $\C^n$ fixing the origin $O$, with $df_O$ diagonalizable. We prove that, under certain arithmetic conditions on the eigenvalues of $df_O$ and some restrictions on the resonances, $f$ is…
We present new computational methods for proving diffeomorphy of triangulated 4-manifolds, including algorithms and topological software that can for the first time effectively handle the complexities that arise in dimension four and be…
The celebrated Livsic theorem states that given M a manifold, a Lie group G, a transitive Anosov diffeomorphism f on M and a Holder function \eta: M \mapsto G whose range is sufficiently close to the identity, it is sufficient for the…
Every partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism on a 3-dimensional nilmanifold is leaf conjugate to a nilmanifold automorphism.
We construct a finitely presented, infinite, simple group that acts by homeomorphisms on the circle, but does not admit a non-trivial action by $C^1$-diffeomorphisms on the circle. The group emerges as a group of piecewise projective…
We give examples of harmonic cellular maps between negatively curved manifolds which are not diffeomorphisms but are homotopic to diffeomorphisms.
In this article, we construct countably many mutually non-isotopic diffeomorphisms of some closed non simply-connected 4-manifolds that are homotopic to but not isotopic to the identity, by surgery along $\Theta$-graphs. As corollaries of…
