A long-standing conjecture asserts that any Anosov diffeomorphism of a closed manifold is finitely covered by a diffeomorphism which is topologically conjugate to a hyperbolic automorphism of a nilpotent manifold. In this paper, we show…

We analyze the Seiberg-Witten curve of the six-dimensional N=(1,1) gauge theory compactified on a torus to four dimensions. The effective theory in four dimensions is a deformation of the N=2* theory. The curve is naturally holomorphically…

Those elements of the second de Rham cohomology group of a connected, oriented Riemannian manifold which map its second homotopy group to zero or to a discrete subgroup of the reals induce deformations of the path algebra of the manifold.…

Let $(M,I,J,K)$ be a hyperkahler manifold, and $Z\subset (M,I)$ a complex subvariety in $(M,I)$. We say that $Z$ is trianalytic if it is complex analytic with respect to $J$ and $K$, and absolutely trianalytic if it is trianalytic with…

We address the problem of necessary conditions and topological obstructions for the existence of robustly transitive maps on surfaces. Concretely, we show that partial hyperbolicity is a necessary condition in order to have $C^1$ robustly…

We study the locus of smooth hypersurfaces inside the Hilbert scheme of a smooth projective complex variety. In the spirit of scanning, we construct a map to a continuous section space of a projective bundle, and show that it induces an…

We present a classification of compact Kaehler manifolds admitting a hamiltonian 2-form (which were classified locally in part I of this work). This involves two components of independent interest. The first is the notion of a rigid…

This book provides a self-contained introduction to the topology and geometry of surfaces and three-manifolds. The main goal is to describe Thurston's geometrisation of three-manifolds, proved by Perelman in 2002. The book is divided into…

This is a collection of results on the topology of toric symplectic manifolds. Using an idea of Borisov, we show that a closed symplectic manifold supports at most a finite number of toric structures. Further, the product of two projective…

As an application of the Bochner formula, we prove that if a $2$-dimensional Riemannian manifold admits a non-trivial smooth tangent vector field $X$ then its Gauss curvature is the divergence of a tangent vector field, constructed from…

In this paper which is the first of a series of papers on smooth structures, the concepts of C-structures and smooth structures are introduced and studied. The notion of smooth structure on semi-integral domains is given. It is shown that…

Totally skew embeddings are introduced by Ghomi and Tabachnikov. They are naturally related to classical problems in topology, such as the generalized vector field problem and the immersion problem for real projective spaces. In recent…

Looking for the universal covering of the smooth non-commutative torus leads to a curve of associative multiplications on the space $\Cal O_M'(\Bbb R^{2n})\cong \Cal O_C(\Bbb R^{2n})$ of Laurent Schwartz which is smooth in the deformation…

For a connected Lie group G, we show that a complex structure on the total space TG of the tangent bundle of G that is left invariant and has the property that each left translation G-orbit is a totally real submanifold is induced from a…

Finding appropriate notions of discrete holomorphic maps and, more generally, conformal immersions of discrete Riemann surfaces into 3-space is an important problem of discrete differential geometry and computer visualization. We propose an…

We give geometric formulae which enable us to detect (completely in some cases) the regular homotopy class of an immersion with trivial normal bundle of a closed oriented 3-manifold into 5-space. These are analogues of the geometric…

This paper attempts to investigate the space of various characteristic classes for smooth manifold bundles with local system on the total space inducing a finite holonomy covering. These classes are known as twisted higher torsion classes.…

This work is devoted to a systematic study of symplectic convexity for integrable Hamiltonian systems with elliptic and focus-focus singularities. A distinctive feature of these systems is that their base spaces are still smooth manifolds…

In the paper we investigate continuity of Orlicz-Sobolev mappings $W^{1,P}(M,N)$ of finite distortion between smooth Riemannian $n$-manifolds, $n\geq 2$, under the assumption that the Young function $P$ satisfies the so called divergence…

For smooth affine varieties in positive characteristic, we identify a slope obstruction to the injectivity of the comparison morphism from rigid cohomology to rationalised crystalline cohomology. This yields a negative answer to a question…
