The equivariant coarse Novikov conjectures stand among a handful profound $K$-theoretic conjectures in noncommutative geometry. Motivated by the quest to verify Novikov-type conjectures for groups of diffeomorphisms, we study in this paper…
Let $\Gamma$ be a finitely generated group which is hyperbolic relative to a finite family $\{H_1,...,H_n\}$ of subgroups. We prove that $\Gamma$ is uniformly embeddable in a Hilbert space if and only if each subgroup $H_i$ is uniformly…
In this paper, we give a generalization of the Chern-Lashof theorem for submanifolds with singularities called frontals in Euclidean space. We prove that, for an $n$-dimensional admissible compact frontal in $(n+r)$-dimensional Euclidean…
We prove that every unital C*-algebra $A$ has the Mazur--Ulam property. Namely, every surjective isometry from the unit sphere $S_A$ of $A$ onto the unit sphere $S_Y$ of another normed space $Y$ extends to a real linear map. This extends…
The asymptotic behaviour of solutions to the quantum differential equation of a Fano manifold F defines a characteristic class A_F of F, called the principal asymptotic class. Gamma conjecture of Vasily Golyshev and the present authors…
We use Green's canonical syzygy conjecture for generic curves to prove that the Green-Lazarsfeld gonality conjecture holds for generic curves of genus g, and gonality d, if $g/3<d<[g/2]+2$.
We show that there is an absolute constant $c>0$ such that every large connected $n$-vertex Cayley graph with degree $d\geq n^{1-c}$ has a Hamilton cycle. This makes progress towards the Lov\'asz conjecture and improves upon the previous…
Let $M$ be a compact closed manifold of variable negative curvature. Fix an element $\operatorname{id} \neq \gamma$ in the fundamental group $\Gamma$ of $M$, and denote the set of elements in $\Gamma$ that are conjugate to $\gamma$ by…
As already noted by Niels Borne and Michel Emsalem, there is a natural generalization of the section conjecture for proper orbicurves. Combined with the reformulation by Niels Borne and Angelo Vistoli of the conjecture in terms of the…
Let $\M$ be a smooth connected manifold endowed with a smooth measure $\mu$ and a smooth locally subelliptic diffusion operator $L$ satisfying $L1=0$, and which is symmetric with respect to $\mu$. Associated with $L$ one has \textit{le…
Let $\Gamma$ be a Cayley graph, or a Cayley sum graph, or a twisted Cayley graph, or a twisted Cayley sum graph, or a vertex-transitive graph. Suppose $\Gamma$ is undirected and non-bipartite. Let $\mu$ (resp. $\mu_2$) denote the smallest…
We prove that if a rescaled mean curvature flow is a global graph over the round cylinder with small gradient and converges super-exponentially fast, then it must coincide with the cylinder itself. We also show that the result is sharp with…
We introduce a graph $\Gamma$ which is roughly isometric to the hyperbolic plane and we study the Steklov eigenvalues of a subgraph with boundary $\Omega$ of $\Gamma$. For $(\Omega_l)_{l\geq 1}$ a sequence of subraphs of $\Gamma$ such that…
We prove that for every closed, connected, orientable, irreducible 3-manifold, there exists an alternating group A_n which is not the topological symmetry group of any graph embedded in the manifold. We also show that for every finite group…
In this paper, by applying a linear trace Li-Yau-Hamilton inequality for a positive (1,1)-form solution of the CR Hodge-Laplace heat equation and monotonicity of the heat equation deformation, we obtain an optimal gap theorem for a complete…
The Gamma conjecture II for the quantum cohomology of a Fano manifold $F$, proposed by Galkin, Golyshev and Iritani, describes the asymptotic behavior of the flat sections of the Dubrovin connection near the irregular singularities, in…
The Generalized Smale Conjecture asserts that if M is a closed 3-manifold with constant positive curvature, then the inclusion of the group of isometries into the group of diffeomorphisms is a homotopy equivalence. For the 3-sphere, this…
We investigate Brunn-Minkowski-type inequalities for the torsional rigidity $T_\gamma$ and the first eigenvalue $\lambda_\gamma$ associated with the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator. Counterexamples are provided showing that neither concavity…
We prove a conjecture of Ohba which says that every graph $G$ on at most $2\chi(G)+1$ vertices satisfies $\chi_\ell(G)=\chi(G)$.
In this expository note, we present a transparent proof of Toponogov's theorem for Alexandrov spaces in the general case, not assuming local compactness of the underlying metric space. More precisely, we show that if M is a complete…
