We show that every orientable infinite-type surface is properly rigid as a consequence of a more general result. Namely, we prove that if a homotopy equivalence between any two non-compact orientable surfaces is a proper map, then it is…

Let S be a compact orientable surface with genus g and n boundary components d_1,...,d_n. Let b = (b_1, ..., b_n) where b_n lies in [-2,2]. Then the mapping class group of S acts on the relative SU(2)-character variety X comprising…

We give examples of rank-one transformations that are (weak) doubly ergodic and rigid (so all their cartesian products are conservative), but with non-ergodic $2$-fold cartesian product. We give conditions for rank-one infinite…

The goals of this paper are twofold. First, we generalize the result of Gaboriau and Lyons [GL07] to the setting of von Neumann's problem for equivalence relations, proving that for any non-amenable ergodic probability measure preserving…

We prove that any $C^{1+BV}$ degree $d \geq 2$ circle covering $h$ having all periodic orbits weakly expanding, is conjugate in the same smoothness class to a metrically expanding map. We use this to connect the space of parabolic external…

We classify measures on a homogeneous space which are invariant under a certain solvable subgroup and ergodic under its unipotent radical. Our treatment is independent of characteristic. As a result we get the first measure classification…

Let $S$ be a connected non-orientable surface with negative Euler characteristic and of finite type. We describe the possible closures in $\mathcal M\mathcal L$ and $\mathcal P\mathcal M\mathcal L$ of the mapping class group orbits of…

We study equivariant projective compactifications of reductive groups obtained by closing the image of a group in the space of operators of a projective representation. We describe the structure and the mutual position of their orbits under…

In this paper we use free iterated actions and the iterated discrete degree of symmetry to obtain rigidity results on aspherical manifolds. We also introduce the concept of the length of an iterated action and we study it for nilmanifolds,…

Let $G$ be a right-angled Artin group with $|\mathrm{Out}(G)|<+\infty$. We prove that if a countable group $H$ with bounded torsion is measure equivalent to $G$, with an $L^1$-integrable measure equivalence cocycle towards $G$, then $H$ is…

Let $S$ be a surface of finite type which is not a sphere with at most four punctures, a torus with at most two punctures, or a closed surface of genus two. Let $\mathcal{MF}$ be the space of equivalence classes of measured foliations of…

We show that for every countable group, any sequence of approximate homomorphisms with values in permutations can be realized as the restriction of a sofic approximation of an orbit equivalence relation. Moreover, this orbit equivalence…

We prove that a connected locally compact median space of finite rank which admits a transitive action is isometric to $\mathbb{R}^n$ endowed with the $\ell^1$-metric. In the other side, replacing the transitivity assumption on the group of…

In this article, we show that the stabilized automorphism group of free exact odometers arising from actions of finitely generated residually finite groups coincides with the topological full group of the odometer acting on itself by right…

We prove that for a countable discrete group $\Gamma$ containing a copy of the free group $\F_n$, for some $2\leq n\leq\infty$, as a normal subgroup, the equivalence relations of conjugacy, orbit equivalence and von Neumann equivalence of…

We study the complexity of isomorphism of classes of metric structures using methods from infinitary continuous logic. For Borel classes of locally compact structures, we prove that if the equivalence relation of isomorphism is potentially…

We prove the existence of a successful coupling for $n$ particles in the symmetric inclusion process. As a consequence we characterize the ergodic measures with finite moments, and obtain sufficient conditions for a measure to converge in…

We study several properties of expansive group actions on metric spaces and obtain relation between expansivity for subgroup and group actions. Through counter examples necessity of hypothesis are justified. We also study expansivity of…

Quasi-invariant measures for non-discrete groups of diffeomorphisms containing a Morse-Smale dynamics are studied. The assumption concerning the presence of a Morse-Smale dynamics allows us to extend to higher dimensions a number of…

We will study several subgroups of continuous full groups of one-sided topological Markov shifts from the view points of cohomology groups of full group actions on the shift spaces. We also study continuous orbit equivalence and strongly…
