Integral foliated simplicial volume is a version of simplicial volume combining the rigidity of integral coefficients with the flexibility of measure spaces. In this article, using the language of measure equivalence of groups we prove a…

We show that non-elliptic prime 3-manifolds satisfy integral approximation for the simplicial volume, i.e., that their simplicial volume equals the stable integral simplicial volume. The proof makes use of integral foliated simplicial…

In analogy with ordinary simplicial volume, we show that integral foliated simplicial volume of oriented closed connected aspherical $n$-manifolds that admit an open amenable cover of multiplicity at most $n$ is zero. This implies that the…

The simplicial volume of oriented closed connected smooth manifolds that admit a non-trivial smooth $S^1$-action vanishes. In the present work we prove a version of this result for the integral foliated simplicial volume of aspherical…

We show that the integral foliated simplicial volume of a connected compact oriented smooth manifold with a regular foliation by circles vanishes.

Integral simplicial volume is a homotopy invariant of oriented closed connected manifolds, defined as the minimal weighted number of singular simplices needed to represent the fundamental class with integral coefficients. We show that…

We define the ideal simplicial volume for compact manifolds with boundary. Roughly speaking, the ideal simplicial volume of a manifold $M$ measures the minimal size of possibly ideal triangulations of $M$ "with real coefficients", thus…

Let $M$ be a triangulated oriented closed connected manifold with universal cover $\widetilde{M}\to M$ and fundamental group $\Gamma=\pi_1(M)$ and consider an essentially free measure preserving action $\Gamma\curvearrowright (X,\mu)$ on a…

We establish an integration formula for integral foliated simplicial volume along ergodic decompositions. This is analogous to the ergodic decomposition formula for the cost of groups.

Let $M$ be the interior of a connected, oriented, compact manifold $V$ of dimension at least 2. If each path component of $\partial V$ has amenable fundamental group, then we prove that the simplicial volume of $M$ is equal to the relative…

Let N be a manifold (with boundary) of dimension at least 3, such that its interior admits a hyperbolic metric of finite volume. We discuss the possible limits arising from sequences of relative fundamental cycles approximating the…

In this paper, we prove that the systolic volume of a closed aspherical 3-manifold is bounded below in terms of complexity. Systolic volume is defined as the optimal constant in a systolic inequality. Babenko showed that the systolic volume…

Let the complexity of a closed manifold M be the minimal number of simplices in a triangulation of M. Such a quantity is clearly submultiplicative with respect to finite coverings, and by taking the infimum on all finite coverings of M…

A well-known question by Gromov asks whether the vanishing of the simplicial volume of oriented closed connected aspherical manifolds implies the vanishing of the Euler characteristic. We study various versions of Gromov's question and…

We provide an estimate of the amenable category of oriented closed connected complete affine manifolds whose fundamental group contains an infinite amenable normal subgroup. As an application we show that all such manifolds have zero…

This paper contains examples of closed aspherical manifolds obtained as a by-product of recent work by the author [arXiv:math.GR/0509490] on the relative strict hyperbolization of polyhedra. The following is proved. (I) Any closed…

New constructions in group homology allow us to manufacture high-dimensional manifolds with controlled simplicial volume. We prove that for every dimension bigger than 3 the set of simplicial volumes of orientable closed connected manifolds…

We show that closed aspherical manifolds supporting an affine structure, whose holonomy map is injective and contains a pure translation, must have vanishing simplicial volume. This provides some further evidence for the veracity of the…

In this note we investigate the simplicial volume of fiber bundles with connected structure group. We are able to show that if the structure group is either compact or a Lie group, or if the fiber is aspherical that the simplicial volume of…

We show that for $n \neq 1,4$ the simplicial volume of an inward tame triangulable open $n$-manifold $M$ with amenable fundamental group at infinity at each end is finite; moreover, we show that if also $\pi_1(M)$ is amenable, then the…
