We prove a compactness theorem for automorphisms of free groups. Namely, we show that the set of automorphisms keeping bounded the length of the uniform current is compact (up to conjugation.) This implies that the spectrum of the length of…

By Cartan's Theorem, every closed subgroup $H$ of a real (or $p$-adic) Lie group $G$ is a Lie subgroup. For Lie groups over a local field ${\mathbb K}$ of positive characteristic, the analogous conclusion is known to be wrong. We show more:…

We prove that a $C^{1,1}$-smooth bounded domain $D$ in $\C^n$ is linearly convex if and only if the convex hull of any two discs in $D$ with common center lies in $D.$

According to J. Feldman and C. Moore's well-known theorem on Cartan subalgebras, a variant of the group measure space construction gives an equivalence of categories between twisted countable standard measured equivalence relations and…

We study the evolution, under convex Hamiltonian flows on cotangent bundles of compact manifolds, of certain distinguished subsets of the phase space. These subsets are generalizations of Lagrangian graphs, we call them pseudographs. They…

Let $D$ be a strictly pseudoconvex domain and $X$ be a singular analytic set of pure dimension $n-1$ in $C^n$ such that $X\cap D\neq \emptyset$ and $X\cap bD$ is transverse. We give sufficient conditions for a function holomorphic on $D\cap…

Let $\overline G$ be the wonderful compactification of a simple affine algebraic group $G$ of adjoint type defined over $\mathbb C.$ Let ${\overline T}\subset \overline G$ be the closure of a maximal torus $T\subset G.$ We prove that the…

We show that a topometric space $X$ is topometrically isomorphic to a type space of some continuous first-order theory if and only if $X$ is compact and has an open metric (i.e., satisfies that $\{p : d(p,U) < \varepsilon\}$ is open for…

This note shows the compatibility of the differential geometric and the topological formulations of equivariant characteristic classes for a compact connected Lie group action.

Renault proved in 2008 that if $G$ is a topologically principal groupoid, then $C_0(G^{(0)})$ is a Cartan subalgebra in $C^*_r(G, \Sigma)$ for any twist $\Sigma$ over $G$. However, there are many groupoids which are not topologically…

In this note, we construct examples of bounded smooth convex domains with no non-trivial analytic discs on the boundary which possess a holomorphic self-map without fixed points so that the iterates do not converge to a point (that is, the…

For two bounded domains in the complex plane whose semigroups of analytic endomorphisms are isomorphic, Eremenko proved in 1993 that the isomorphism is given as a conjugation by a conformal or anticonformal map. In the present paper we…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{C}^n$, $n\geq 2$, be a domain with smooth connected boundary. If $\Omega$ is relatively compact, the Hartogs-Bochner theorem ensures that every CR distribution on $\partial\Omega$ has a holomorphic extension to…

Let \pi :Z\to X be a holomorphic submersion of a complex manifold Z onto a complex manifold X and D\Subset X a 1-convex domain with strongly pseudoconvex boundary. We prove that under certain conditions there always exists a spray of \pi…

The Newlander-Nirenberg theorem says that a formally integrable complex structure is locally equivalent to the standard complex structure in the complex Euclidean space. In this paper, we consider two natural generalizations of the…

We study the fixed point sets of holomorphic self-maps of a bounded domain in ${\Bbb C}^n$. Specifically we investigate the least number of fixed points in general position in the domain that forces any automorphism (or endomorphism) to be…

A homogeneous space G/H is said to have a compact Clifford-Klein form if there exists a discrete subgroup D of G that acts properly discontinuously on G/H, such that the quotient space D\G/H is compact. When n is even, we find every closed,…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{C}^n$ be a bounded domain and let $\mathcal{A} \subset \mathcal{C}(\bar{\Omega})$ be a uniform algebra generated by a set $F$ of holomorphic and pluriharmonic functions. Under natural assumptions on $\Omega$ and…

In this paper, we prove that the closure of a bounded pseudoconvex domain, which is spirallike with respect to a globally asymptotic stable holomorphic vector field, is polynomially convex. We also provide a necessary and sufficient…

In this paper, we prove that if $D\subset R^n$ is a John domain which is homeomorphic to a uniform domain via a quasiconformal mapping, then each quasihyperbolic geodesic in $D$ is a cone arc, which shows that the answer to one of open…
