We prove a dynamical Shafarevich theorem on the finiteness of the set of isomorphism classes of rational maps with fixed degeneracies. More precisely, fix an integer d at least 2 and let K be either a number field or the function field of a…

We study a properly convex real projective manifold with (possibly empty) compact, strictly convex boundary, and which consists of a compact part plus finitely many convex ends. We extend a theorem of Koszul which asserts that for a compact…

We give some results concerning the smoothness of the image of a real-analytic submanifold in complex space under the action of a finite holomorphic mapping. For instance, if the submanifold is not contained in a proper complex subvariety,…

We consider actions of locally compact groups $G$ on certain CAT(0) spaces $X$ by isometries. The CAT(0) spaces we consider have finite dimension at large scale. In case $B$ is a $G$-boundary, that is a measurable $G$-space with amenability…

We study the real spectrum compactification of character varieties of finitely generated groups in semisimple Lie groups. This provides a compactification with good topological properties, and we interpret the boundary points in terms of…

We consider rationally connected complex projective manifolds M and show that their loop spaces--infinite dimensional complex manifolds--have properties similar to those of M. Furthermore, we give a finite dimensional application concerning…

In a previous paper, we provided some update in the treatment of the finiteness theorem for rational maps of finite degree from a fixed variety to varieties of general type. In the present paper we present another improvement, introducing…

Let $\rho_0$ be an action of a Lie group on a manifold with boundary that is transitive on the interior. We study the set of actions that are topologically conjugate to $\rho_0$, up to smooth or analytic change of coordinates. We show that…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be finite complexes. When $Y$ is a nilpotent space, it has a rationalization $Y \to Y_{(0)}$ which is well-understood. Early on it was found that the induced map $[X,Y] \to [X,Y_{(0)}]$ on sets of mapping classes is…

We prove a result on the structure of finite proper holomorphic mappings between complex manifolds that are products of hyperbolic Riemann surfaces. While an important special case of our result follows from the ideas developed by Remmert…

We investigate conditions under which a co-computably enumerable closed set in a computable metric space is computable and prove that in each locally computable computable metric space each co-computably enumerable compact manifold with…

Given a closed, oriented surface, possibly with boundary, and a mapping class, we obtain sharp lower bounds on the number of fixed points of a surface symplectomorphism (i.e. area-preserving map) in the given mapping class, both with and…

In this paper, it is shown that every orientable closed 3-manifold maps with nonzero degree onto at most finitely many homeomorphically distinct irreducible non-geometric orientable closed 3-manifolds. Moreover, given any nonzero integer,…

In the paper we discuss three different notions of extremal holomorphic mappings: weak $m$-extremals, $m$-extremals and $m$-complex geodesics. We discuss relations between them in general case and in the special cases of unit ball,…

This paper is devoted to studying of some properties of multivalued mappings in Euclidean space. There were proved theorems on a fixed point for multivalued mappings whose restrictions to some subset in the closure of a domain satisfy "a…

We show how to use topological ideas, such as compactness, to establish orderability properties of infinite groups. A new application is to provide a left-ordering for the group of PL homeomorphisms of a connected surface with boundary…

We prove bounds on the saturation degrees of homogeneous ideals (and their powers) defining smooth complex projective varieties. For example, we show that a classical statement due to Macualay for zero-dimensional complete intersection…

We treat the boundary problem for complex varieties with isolated singularities, of complex dimension greater than or equal to 3, non necessarily compact, which are contained in strongly convex, open subsets of a complex Hilbert space H. We…

We show that for any k>1, stratified sets of finite complexity are insufficient to realize all homology classes of codimension k in all smooth manifolds. We also prove a similar result concerning smooth generic maps whose double-point sets…

In this paper we prove a compactness theorem for a sequence of harmonic maps which are defined on a converging sequence of Riemannian manifolds.
