We introduce a coarse analog of the classical Lusternik-Schnirelmann category which we denote by $\text{c-cat}$, defined for metric spaces in the coarse homotopy category. This provides a new tool for studying large-scale topological…

We prove that $$ \cat X\le cd(\pi_1(X))+\bigg\lceil\frac{\dim X-1}{2}\bigg\rceil$$ for every CW complex $X$ where $cd(\pi_1(X))$ denotes the cohomological dimension of the fundamental group of $X$.

We consider the Kato and the Dynkin class and their local counterparts on a smooth Riemannian manifold as Fr\'{e}chet spaces. Based on recent results by Carron, Mondello and Tewodrose we show that for a Riemannian manifold $(X,g)$ of…

In this paper some axiomatic generalization (function of open subsets) of the relative Lyusternik-Schnirelmann category is considered, incorporating the sectional category and the Schwarz genus as well. For this function and a given…

The PL geometric category of a polyhedron $P$, denoted $\hbox{plgcat}(P)$, provides a natural upper bound for the Lusternik--Schnirelmann category and it is defined as the minimum number of PL collapsible subpolyhedra of $P$ that cover $P$.…

Given a compact, three-dimensional, real-analytic Lorentzian manifold $(M,g)$, we prove that the identity component of the conformal group preserves a metric in the conformal class $[g]$, or $(M,g)$ is conformally flat.

We extend Lusternik-Schnirelmann theory to pairs $(f, \phi)$, where $\phi$ is a homotopy equivalence of a space $X$, $f$ is a function on $X$ which decreases along $\phi$ and $(f, \phi)$ satisfies a discrete analog of the Palais-Smale…

We prove that manifolds of Lusternik-Schnirelmann category 2 necessarily have free fundamental group. We thus settle a 1992 conjecture of Gomez-Larranaga and Gonzalez-Acuna, by generalizing their result in dimension 3, to all higher…

We study the transverse Lusternik-Schnirelmann category of a Riemannian foliation on a compact manifold. We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition when the transverse LS category is finite. We also introduce a variation on the concept…

We introduce the notion of the "covering type" of a space, which is more subtle that the notion of Lusternik Schnirelman category. It measures the complexity of a space which arises from coverings by contractible subspaces whose non-empty…

We provide an abstract framework for a Logvinenko-Sereda type theorem, where the classical compactness assumption on the support of the Fourier transform is replaced by the assumption that the functions under consideration belong to a…

Extending a theorem of Shelah we prove that fundamental groups of Peano continua (locally connected and connected metric compact spaces) are finitely presented if they are countable. The proof uses ideas from geometric group theory.

In this paper, we study the Lusternik-Schnirelmann category of a simplicial map between simplicial complexes, generalizing the simplicial category of a complex to that of a map. Several properties of this new invariant are shown, including…

We give bounds for the module sectional category of products of maps which generalise a theorem of Jessup for Lusternik-Schnirelmann category. We deduce also a proof of a Ganea type conjecture for topological complexity. This is a first…

In this work we establish a version of the Bartnik Splitting Conjecture in the context of Lorentzian length spaces. In precise terms, we show that under an appropriate timelike completeness condition, a globally hyperbolic Lorentzian length…

The theme of this paper is that algebraic complexity implies dynamical complexity for pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms of a closed surface S_g of genus g. Penner proved that the logarithm of the minimal dilatation for a pseudo-Anosov…

We introduce the notion of Lusternik-Schnirelmann category for differentiable stacks and establish its relation with the groupoid Lusternik-Schnirelmann category for Lie groupoids.

We study the low lying zeros of $GL(2) \times GL(2)$ Rankin-Selberg $L$-functions. Assuming the generalized Riemann hypothesis, we compute the $1$-level density of the low-lying zeroes of $L(s, f \otimes g)$ averaged over families of…

We propose a new homotopy invariant for Lie groupoids which generalizes the classical Lusternik-Schnirelmann category for topological spaces. We use a bicategorical approach to develop a notion of contraction in this context. We propose a…

We prove a number of new results on the large-scale geometry of the $L^p$-metrics on the group of area-preserving diffeomorphisms of each orientable surface. Our proofs use in a key way the Fulton-MacPherson type compactification of the…
