Let $X$ be a compact Gromov-Hausdorff limit space of a collapsing sequence of compact $n$-manifolds, $M_i$, of Ricci curvature $\text{Ric}_{M_i}\ge -(n-1)$ and all points in $M_i$ are $(\delta,\rho)$-local rewinding Reifenberg points, or…
This paper is part 1 of a series of papers culminating in the result that measure preserving diffeomorphisms of the disc or 2-torus are unclassifiable. It also addresses another classical problem: which abstract measure preserving systems…
We prove that if the stable foliation and the unstable foliation of an Anosov diffeomorphism on a connected compact manifold are $C^3$, then the diffeomorphism has fixed points. This is a partial positive answer to a Smale conjecture for…
Every pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism $f$ admits infinitely many Markov partitions. A \textit{geometric Markov partition} is a Markov partition $\mathcal{R}$ in which each rectangle is equipped with a vertical orientation. To each pair $(f,…
We study the existence of Anosov diffeomorphisms on complete open surfaces. We show that under the assumptions of density of periodic points and uniform geometry that such diffeomorphisms have a system of Margulis measures, which are a…
In this short expository note, we give a detailed proof of Markov's theorem on the unsolvability of the homeomorphism problem and of the existence of unrecognizable manifolds in all dimensions larger than 3.
There are a least uncountably many diffeomorphism types for open manifolds. Hence the classification problem is extremely difficult. We proceed as follows: We define several uniform structures of proper metric spaces and consider their arc…
We discuss some examples of open manifolds which admit non-isomorphic symplectic structures of Liouville type.
We show by means of a counterexample that a $C^{1+Lip}$ diffeomorphism Holder conjugate to an Anosov diffeomorphism is not necessarily Anosov. The counterexample can bear higher smoothness up to $C^3$. Also we include a result from the 2006…
We establish a criterion for certain mapping classes of a surface homeomorphisms to be pseudo-Anosov in terms of the geometry of hyperbolic 3-manifolds and Gromov-hyperbolic surface group extensions. Specifically, any element of the…
We propose a generalization of the concept of discretized Anosov flows that covers a wide class of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms in 3-manifolds, and that we call collapsed Anosov flows. They are related with Anosov flows via a self…
We give sufficient conditions for a diffeomorphism of a compact surface to be robustly $N$-expansive and cw-expansive in the $C^r$-topology. We give examples on the genus two surface showing that they need not to be Anosov diffeomorphisms.…
We give a simple explicit construction of pseudo-Anosov mapping classes using an improvement of the homological criterion of Casson-Bleiler.
Anosov families are non-stationary dynamical systems with hyperbolic behavior. Non-trivial examples of Anosov families will be given in this paper. We show the existence of invariant manifolds, the structrural stability and a…
We continue with the ideas of Bonatti-Langevin-Jeandenans towards a constructive and algorithmic classification of pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms (possibly with spines), up to topological conjugacy. We begin by indicating how to assign to…
Certain families of manifolds which support Anosov flows do not support expanding, quasi-isometric foliations.
Automorphisms of handlebodies arise naturally in the a classification of automorphisms of three-manifolds. Among automorphisms of handlebodies, there are certain automorphisms called irreducible (or generic), which are analogues of…
Examples are given of tent maps $T$ for which there exist non-trivial sets $B \subset [0,1]$ such that $T:B \to B$ is a homeomorphism.
We give some general criteria of being a homeomorphism for continuous mappings of topological manifolds, as well as criteria of being a diffeomorphism for smooth mappings of smooth manifolds. As an illustration, we apply these criteria to…
The group of piecewise projective homeomorphisms of the line provides straightforward counter-examples to the so-called von Neumann conjecture. The examples are so simple that many additional properties can be established.
