We prove the following entropy-rigidity result in finite volume: if $X$ is a negatively curved manifold with curvature $-b^2\leq K_X \leq -1$, then $Ent_{top}(X) = n-1$ if and only if $X$ is hyperbolic. In particular, if $X$ has the same…

If a topological dynamical system $(X,T)$ has positive topological entropy, then it is multivariant mean Li-Yorke chaotic along a sequence $\{a_k\}_{k=1}^\infty$ of positive integers which is "good" for pointwise ergodic convergence with a…

In the context of geodesic flows of noncompact negatively curved manifolds, we propose three different definitions of entropy and pressure at infinity, through growth of periodic orbits, critical exponents of Poincar\'e series, and entropy…

Let $\Sigma$ be a compact quotient of $T_4$, the Lie group of $4 \times 4$ upper triangular matrices with unity along the diagonal. The Lie algebra $t_4$ of $T_4$ has the standard basis $\{X_{ij}\}$ of matrices with $0$ everywhere but in…

We study the asymptotics as $p\uparrow 2$ of stationary $p$-harmonic maps $u_p\in W^{1,p}(M,S^1)$ from a compact manifold $M^n$ to $S^1$, satisfying the natural energy growth condition $$\int_M|du_p|^p=O(\frac{1}{2-p}).$$ Along a…

We study the dynamics of meromorphic maps for a compact Kaehler manifold X. More precisely, we give a simple criterion that allows us to produce a measure of maximal entropy. We can apply this result to bound the Lyapunov exponents. Then,…

We consider stabilities for the weighted length or energy functional of a discrete map from a finite weighted graph $(X,m_{E})$ into a smooth Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$. We prove the non-existence of a stable discrete minimal immersion or…

A rigid cohomology class on a complex manifold is a class that is represented by a unique closed positive current. The positive current representing a rigid class is also called rigid. For a compact Kahler manifold $X$ all eigenvectors of…

Let $T$ be a positive closed current of unit mass on the complex projective space $\mathbb P^n$. For certain values $\alpha<1$, we prove geometric properties of the set of points in $\mathbb P^n$ where the Lelong number of $T$ exceeds…

In this paper, we extend the concept of finite entropy measures in K\"ahler geometry. We define the finite $p$-entropy related to $\omega$-plurisubharmonic functions and demonstrate their inclusion in an appropriate energy class. Our study…

In this paper, we describe the intersection between geodesic and conformal currents on closed hyperbolic three-manifolds. We use this to prove some sharp bounds which involve the Liouville entropy of a negatively curved metric, the minimal…

This article considers the existence and regularity of Kahler-Einstein metrics on a compact Kahler manifold $M$ with edge singularities with cone angle $2\pi\beta$ along a smooth divisor $D$. We prove existence of such metrics with…

We prove that any two Kahler potentials on a compact Kahler manifold can be connected by a geodesic segment of C^{1,1} regularity. This follows from an a priori interior real Hessian bound for solutions of the nondegenerate complex…

We investigate minimizers and critical points for scale-invariant tangent-point energies ${\rm TP}^{p,q}$ of closed curves. We show that a) minimizing sequences in ambient isotopy classes converge to locally critical embeddings in all but…

We study new compactifications of the SO(32) heterotic string theory on compact complex non-Kahler manifolds. These manifolds have many interesting features like fewer moduli, torsional constraints, vanishing Euler character and vanishing…

The goal of this work is give a precise numerical description of the K\"ahler cone of a compact K\"ahler manifold. Our main result states that the K\"ahler cone depends only on the intersection form of the cohomology ring, the Hodge…

We study holomorphic automorphisms on compact K\"ahler manifolds having simple actions on the Hodge cohomology ring. We show for such automorphisms that the main dynamical Green currents admit complex laminar structures (woven currents) and…

A rigid current on a compact complex manifold is a closed positive current whose cohomology class contains only one closed positive current. Rigid currents occur in complex dynamics, algebraic and differential geometry. The goals of the…

We study topological entropy of exactly Devaney chaotic maps on totally regular continua, i.e. on (topologically) rectifiable curves. After introducing the so-called P-Lipschitz maps (where P is a finite invariant set) we give an upper…

Consider a holomorphic correspondence $f$ on a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$ of dimension $k$. Let $1\le q\le k$ be any integer such that the dynamical degrees of $f$ satisfy $d_{q-1}<d_q$. We construct the Green currents $T_c$ of $f$…
