We investigate modularity of elliptic curves over a general totally real number field, establishing a finiteness result for the set non-modular $j$-invariants. By analyzing quadratic points on some modular curves, we show that all elliptic…

We give a systematic treatment to the concept of hypoellipticity, putting it into an abstract form which allows us to deal with several different notions within the same framework. We then investigate when a notion of hypoellipticity…

We consider an operator $ P $ which is a sum of squares of vector fields with analytic coefficients. The operator has a non-symplectic characteristic manifold, but the rank of the symplectic form $ \sigma $ is not constant on $ \Char P $.…

The main theorem of this paper is a result of estimated transversality with respect to stratifications of jet spaces in the approximately holomorphic category over an almost-complex manifold. The notion of asymptotic ampleness of complex…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of 1-parameter subgroups with respect to Hofer's metric when the underlying symplectic manifold is an open surface of infinite area. We prove that, depending on the topology of the level sets of the…

Motivated by spectral asymptotics for orbital integrals in a relative trace formula, we generalize a number of geometric properties of geodesics in the hyperbolic plane, to maximal flat submanifolds of symmetric spaces of non-compact type.

Frames provide redundant, stable representations of data which have important applications in signal processing. We introduce a connection between symplectic geometry and frame theory and show that many important classes of frames have…

We obtain global analytic hypoellipticity for a class of differential operators that can be expressed as a zero-order perturbation of a sum of squares of vector fields with real-analytic coefficients on compact Lie groups. The key…

In some scientific fields, a scaling is able to modify the topology of an observed object. Our goal in the present work is to introduce a new formalism adapted to the mathematical representation of this kind of phenomenon. To this end, we…

Any symmetric affinity function $w: V\times V \to \mathbb{R}_+$ defined on a discrete set $V$ induces Euclidean space structure on $V$. In particular, an undirected graph specified by an affinity (or adjacency) matrix can be considered as a…

This is a note on the graphs of two smooth real-valued functions in the plane with no intersection and the natural map onto the region surrounded by them with the canonical projection to the line composed, yielding its Reeb space. The Reeb…

Let $G$ be a group acting properly and by isometries on a metric space $X$; it follows that the quotient or orbit space $X/G$ is also a metric space. We study the Vietoris-Rips and \v{C}ech complexes of $X/G$. Whereas (co)homology theories…

We study the asymptotics of the natural $L^2$ metric on the Hitchin moduli space with group $G = \mathrm{SU}(2)$. Our main result, which addresses a detailed conjectural picture made by Gaiotto, Neitzke and Moore \cite{gmn13}, is that on…

In this work, we present necessary and sufficient conditions for an operator of the type sum of squares to be globally hypoelliptic on a product of compact Riemannian manifolds $T \times G$, where $G$ is also a Lie group. These new…

We consider the homotopy type of maps between symplectic surface whose graphs form symplectic submanifolds of the product. We give a purely topological model for this space in terms of maps with constrained numbers of pre-images. We use…

The Hilbert metric on convex subsets of $\mathbb R^n$ has proven a rich notion and has been extensively studied. We propose here a generalization of this metric to subset of complex projective spaces and give examples of applications to…

We present necessary and sufficient conditions to have global hypoellipticity and global solvability for a class of vector fields defined on a product of compact Lie groups. In view of Greenfield's and Wallach's conjecture, about the…

Gowdy's model of cosmological spacetimes is a much investigated subject in classical and quantum gravity. Depending on spatial topology recollapsing as well as expanding models are known. Several analytic tools were used in order to clarify…

We prove that a nonempty closed and geodesically convex subset of the $l_{\infty}$ plane $\mathbb{R}^2_{\infty}$ is hyperconvex and we characterize the tight spans of arbitrary subsets of $\mathbb{R}^2_{\infty}$ via this property: Given any…

Certain second-order partial differential operators, which are expressed as sums of squares of real-analytic vector fields in $\Bbb R^3$ and which are well known to be $C^\infty$ hypoelliptic, fail to be analytic hypoelliptic.
