This paper is about cohomology of mapping class groups from the perspective of arithmetic groups. For a closed surface $S$ of genus $g$, the mapping class group $Mod(S)$ admits a well-known arithmetic quotient $Mod(S)\rightarrow Sp(2g, Z)$,…
Let S be a connected, compact and orientable surface of genus two having exactly one boundary component. We study automorphisms of the Torelli complex for S, and describe any isomorphism between finite index subgroups of the Torelli group…
The Conley index of an isolated invariant set is a fundamental object in the study of dynamical systems. Here we consider smooth functions on closed submanifolds of Euclidean space and describe a framework for inferring the Conley index of…
The equivariant coarse index is well-understood and widely used for actions by discrete groups. We extend the definition of this index to general locally compact groups. We use a suitable notion of admissible modules over $C^*$-algebras of…
We classify certain algebras of matrix-valued cross-sections over an annulus up to complete isometric isomorphism, based on topological bundle invariants. In particular, we study sections of matrix bundles which are continuous on the…
Let $S$ be a closed, connected, orientable surface of genus at least 3, $\mathcal{C}(S)$ be the complex of curves on $S$ and $Mod_S^*$ be the extended mapping class group of $S$. We prove that a simplicial map, $\lambda: \mathcal{C}(S) \to…
We classify the indexed links corresponding to the union of the closed orbits of non-singular Morse-Smale flows on most graph manifolds. We find that each of this kind of indexed links can be obtained by applying a finite steps of…
Every oriented 4-manifold admits a folded symplectic structure, which in turn determines a homotopy class of compatible almost complex structures that are discontinuous across the folding hypersurface ("fold") in a controlled fashion. We…
We study twisted $Spin^c$-manifolds over a paracompact Hausdorff space $X$ with a twisting $\alpha: X \to K(\ZZ, 3)$. We introduce the topological index and the analytical index on the bordism group of $\alpha$-twisted $Spin^c$-manifolds…
We give a proof of the cobordism invariance of the index of elliptic pseudodifferential operators on sigma-compact manifolds, where, in the non-compact case, the operators are assumed to be multiplication outside a compact set. We show…
Let $f$ be a holomorphic mapping between compact complex manifolds. We give a criterion for $f$ to have {\it unobstructed deformations}, i.e. for the local moduli space of $f$ to be smooth: this says, roughly speaking, that the group of…
Let $(S,h)$ be a closed hyperbolic surface and $M$ be a quasi-Fuchsian 3-manifold. We consider incompressible maps from $S$ to $M$ that are critical points of an energy functional $F$ which is homogeneous of degree $1$. These "minimizing"…
Let f be a dominant meromorphic self-map on a compact Kaehler manifold X which preserves a fibration given by a meromorphic map from X to a compact Kaehler manifold Y. We compute the dynamical degrees of f in term of its dynamical degrees…
Topological degrees of continuous mappings between manifolds of even dimension are studied in terms of index theory of pseudo-differential operators. The index formalism of non-commutative geometry is used to derive analytic integral…
We develop a theory of $\times$-homotopy, fundamental groupoids and covering spaces that apply to non-simple graphs, generalizing existing results for simple graphs. We prove that $\times$-homotopies from finite graphs can be decomposed…
We prove a conjecture of Morel identifying Voevodsky's homotopy invariant sheaves with transfers with spectra in the stable homotopy category which are concentrated in degree zero for the homotopy t-structure and have a trivial action of…
This paper concerns a formula which relates the Lefschetz number L(f) for a map f:M --> M' to the fixed point index I(f) summed with the fixed point index of a derived map on part of the boundary of M. Here M is a compact manifold and M' is…
Every generic linear functional $f$ on a convex polytope $P$ induces an orientation on the graph of $P$. From the resulting directed graph one can define a notion of $f$-arborescence and $f$-monotone path on $P$, as well as a natural graph…
In this paper an analytic proof of a generalization of a theorem of Bismut ([Bis1, Theorem 5.1]) is given, which says that, when $v$ is a transversal holomorphic vector field on a compact complex manifold $X$ with a zero point set $Y$, the…
Let $X$ be a finite set and let $\mathsf{Mat}_X(\mathbb{C})$ denote the algebra of matrices with rows and columns indexed by $X$ and entries from the complex numbers acting on $\mathbb{C}^X$ with standard basis $\{ \hat{x} \mid x\in X\}$.…
