We study the geometry and dynamics of discrete subgroups $\Gamma$ of $\PSL(3,\mathbb{C})$ with an open invariant set $\Omega \subset \PC^2$ where the action is properly discontinuous and the quotient $\Omega/\Gamma$ contains a connected…

We show that for a large class of actions $\Gamma \curvearrowright \mathcal{A}$ of $C^*$-simple groups $\Gamma$ on unital $C^*$-algebras $\mathcal{A}$, including any non-faithful action of a hyperbolic group with trivial amenable radical,…

Let $\Gamma(S)$ be the pure mapping class group of a connected orientable surface $S$ of negative Euler characteristic. For ${\mathscr C}$ a class of finite groups, let $\hat{\pi}_1(S)^{\mathscr C}$ be the pro-${\mathscr C}$ completion of…

In the first part of this paper, we let $G$ be a finitely-generated amenable group such that $G/[G, G]$ is torsion-free. We suppose that $G$ acts by homeomorphisms homotopic to the identity on a manifold $M$, and give conditions on $M$…

This paper contains some more results on the topology of a nondegenerate action of $\mathbb{R}^n$ on a compact connected $n$-manifold $M$ when the action is totally hyperbolic (i.e. its toric degree is zero). We study the…

In this paper we propose two guiding principles that suggest a number of conjectures (some now proved) about various forms of rigidity for moduli spaces arising in algebraic geometry. Such conjectures have group-theoretic, topological and…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of a dual topological graph of a given topological graph, and show that it defines a C*-algebra isomorphic to the C*-algebra of the given one. Repeating to take a dual, and taking a projective limit,…

We explain some results concerning the topology of varieties and stacks equipped with an action of the multiplicative group $\mathbb{G}_m$. We apply these techniques to the moduli of Higgs bundles. Our main application is to upgrade the…

Gauge theories with compact symmetry groups possess topologically non-trivial configurations of gauge field. This has dramatic implications for the vacuum structure of Quantum Chromo-Dynamics (QCD) and for the behavior of QCD plasma, as…

We investigate SU(2) gauge fields topology using new approach, which exploits the well known connection between SU(2) gauge theory and quaternionic projective sigma-models and allows to formulate the topological charge density entirely in…

Topological interactions are an essential ingredient for building consistent low-energy theories of fermions, gauge fields and Nambu-Goldstone bosons in the absence of explicit UV completions, such as in Little Higgs models. These…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{C}^n$ be a domain whose Bergman space contains all holomorphic monomials. We derive sufficient conditions for $\Omega$ to be Reinhardt, complete Reinhardt, circular or Hartogs in terms of the orthogonality…

This paper is a sequel to [He7]. There a notion of marking of isolated hypersurface singularities was defined, and a moduli space $M_\mu^{mar}$ for marked singularities in one $\mu$-homotopy class of isolated hypersurface singularities was…

This paper is a step towards the complete topological classification of {\Omega}-stable diffeomorphisms on an orientable closed surface, aiming to give necessary and sufficient conditions for two such diffeomorphisms to be topologically…

We study topological quivers $Q$ admitting a free and proper action by a locally compact group $G$ together with their associated $C^*$-algebras. On the topological side, we provide a complete classification of topological quivers which…

An overview is given of the construction of a differential polynomial ring of functions on the moduli space of Calabi-Yau threefolds. These rings coincide with the rings of quasi modular forms for geometries with duality groups for which…

This work deals with the topological classification of singular foliation germs on $(\mathbb C^{2},0)$. Working in a suitable class of foliations we fix the topological invariants given by the separatrix set, the Camacho-Sad indices and the…

We study the topological and differentiable singularities of the configuration space C(\Gamma) of a mechanical linkage \Gamma in d-dimensional Euclidean space, defining an inductive sufficient condition to determine when a configuration is…

In ergodic theory, given sufficient conditions on the system, every weak mixing $\mathbb{N}$-action is strong mixing along a density one subset of $\mathbb{N}$. We ask if a similar statement holds in topological dynamics with density one…

Let $(X, \Gamma)$ be a free and minimal topological dynamical system, where $X$ is a separable compact Hausdorff space and $\Gamma$ is a countable infinite discrete amenable group. It is shown that if $(X, \Gamma)$ has the Uniform Rokhlin…
