We show that for each natural $p\geq 2$, the Lefschetz fixed point theorem is optimal when applied to ${\Bbb Z}^{p}$-actions by homeomorphisms on the three dimensional torus ${\Bbb T}^3$. More precisely, we show that for a spectrally…

We show that ergodic affine abelian discrete actions on the torus, that have a rank-one factor in their linear part, are locally rigid in a KAM sense if and only if the rank one factor is trivial and the action is higher-rank transversally…

We confirm the Halperin-Carlsson Conjecture for free $Z_p$-torus actions (p is a prime) on 2-dimensional finite CW-complexes and free $Z_2$-torus actions on compact 3-manifolds.

Let $\Lambda_0$ be an ordered abelian group. We show how an $\mathrm{ATF}(\mathbb{Z}\times\Lambda_0)$ group -- that is, a group admitting a free affine action without inversions on a $\mathbb{Z}\times\Lambda_0$-tree -- admits a natural…

We prove that any smooth action of $\mathbb Z^{m-1}, m\ge 3$ on an $m$-dimensional manifold that preserves a measure such that all non-identity elements of the suspension have positive entropy is essentially algebraic, i.e. isomorphic up to…

We determine the homotopy type of quotients of $S^n \times S^n$ by free actions of $\mathbb Z_{/p} \times \mathbb Z_{/p}$ where $2p>n+3$. Much like free $\mathbb Z_{/p}$ actions, they can be classified via the first $p$-localized…

In this paper, we study a local rigidity property of $\mathbb Z \ltimes_\lambda \mathbb R$ affine action on tori generated by an irreducible toral automorphism and a linear flow along an eigenspace. Such an action exhibits a weak version of…

Affine surfaces in $\mathbb{C}^{3}$ defined by an equation of the form $x^{n}z-Q(x,y)=0$ have been increasingly studied during the past 15 years. Of particular interest is the fact that they come equipped with an action of the additive…

Let $F$ be a finite-rank free group and let $\Phi\in\mathrm{Out}(F)$ have polynomial growth. Let $G=F\rtimes_\Phi\mathbb{Z}$. We give sufficient conditions on $\Phi$ that ensure $G$ acts freely on a CAT(0) cube complex. For $d=1$, the class…

In this article we construct examples of non-smoothable $\mathbb{Z}/p$-actions on indefinite spin 4-manifolds with boundary for all primes $p\geq 5$. For example, we show that for each prime $p\geq 5$ and each $n\geq 1$ there exists a…

The mapping torus induced by an automorphism $\phi$ of the free abelian group $\mathbb{Z}^n$ is a semi-direct product $G=\mathbb{Z}^n\rtimes_\phi \mathbb{Z}$. We show that whether the rank of $G$ is equal to $n+1$ is decidable. As a…

For the canonical action $\alpha$ of $\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$ on 2-dimensional simple rotation algebras $\mathcal{A}_\theta$, it is known that if $F$ is a finite subgroup of $\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$, the crossed products…

For any noncompact semisimple real Lie group $G$, we construct a group of affine transformations of its Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ whose linear part is Zariski-dense in $\operatorname{Ad} G$ and which is free, nonabelian and acts properly…

Any compact surface supports a continuous action of the orientation preserving affine group of the real line which is fixed point free (Lima and Plante). It is generally admitted that this action can be taken smooth although it is not easy…

Let Z be an algebraic space of finite type over a field, equipped with an action of the multiplicative group $G_m$. In this situation we define and study a certain algebraic space equipped with an unramified morphism to $A^1\times Z\times…

We show that if $r\geq 3$ and $\alpha$ is a faithful $Z^r$-Cartan action on a torus $T^d$ by automorphisms, then any closed subset of $(T^d)^2$ which is invariant and topologically transitive under the diagonal $\bZ^r$-action by $\alpha$ is…

We use the notion of fixity for representations of finite groups to construct free and smooth actions on products of spheres. In particular we show that a finite p-group (for p>3) will act freely and smoothly on a product of two spheres if…

An algebraic $Z^{d}$-action is an action of $Z^{d}$ on a compact abelian group $X$ by automorphisms of $X$. We prove that for $d \ge 8$, there exist mixing zero entropy algebraic $Z^{d}$-actions which do not exhibit isomorphism rigidity…

We examine the problem of the linearity of an algebraic torus action in the associative setting. We prove the free algebra analog of a classical theorem of BialynickiBirula, which establishes linearity of maximal torus action. Additionally,…

This paper is concerned with fixed-point free $S^1$-actions (smooth or locally linear) on orientable 4-manifolds. We show that the fundamental group plays a predominant role in the equivariant classification of such 4-manifolds. In…
