Anosov diffeomorphisms on closed Riemannian manifolds are a type of dynamical systems exhibiting uniform hyperbolic behavior. Therefore their properties are intensively studied, including which spaces allow such a diffeomorphism. It is…

Given a finitely generated, torsion-free nilpotent group, we find the maximum possible (critical) regularity for its faithful actions by diffeomorphisms of the closed or half-open interval and of the circle. Our result gives an expression…

Let $\Gamma_G$ denote a graph associated with a group $G$. A compelling question about finite groups asks whether or not a finite group $H$ must be nilpotent provided $\Gamma_H$ is isomorphic to $\Gamma_G$ for a finite nilpotent group $G$.…

In this article we study properly discontinuous actions on Hilbert manifolds giving new examples of complete Hilbert manifolds with nonnegative, respectively nonpositive, sectional curvature with infinite fundamental group. We also get…

We prove that strong finite total curvature complete hypersurfaces of (n+1)-euclidean space are proper and diffeomorphic to a compact manifold minus finitely many points. With an additional condition, we also prove that the Gauss map of…

A complete Riemannian manifold without conjugate points is called asymptotically harmonic if the mean curvature of its horospheres is a universal constant. Examples of asymptotically harmonic manifolds include flat spaces and rank one…

Let $\Gamma$ be a lattice in a simply-connected nilpotent Lie group $N$ whose Lie algebra $\mathfrak{n}$ is $p$-filiform. We show that $\Gamma$ is either abelian or 2-step nilpotent if $\Gamma$ is isomorphic to the fundamental group of a…

We study fundamental groups of non compact Riemannian manifolds. We find conditions which ensure that the fundamental group is trivial, finite or finitely generated.

Any smooth, closed oriented 4-manifold has a surface diagram of arbitrarily high genus g>2 that specifies it up to diffeomorphism. The goal of this paper is to prove the following statement: For any smooth, closed oriented 4-manifold M,…

The higher divergence of a metric space describes its isoperimetric behaviour at infinity. It is closely related to the higher-dimensional Dehn functions, but has more requirements to the fillings. We prove that these additional…

We show that the fundamental group of any smooth subelliptic variety is finite. Moreover, it is also proved that every finite group can be realized as the fundamental group of a smooth subelliptic variety. As a consequence, it follows that…

This article generalises to K\"ahler orbifolds general results on uniformisation of compact K\"ahler manifolds such as the Shafarevich conjecture for linear fundamental groups.

Let $X$ be a smooth quasi-projective variety. Assume that the (topological) fundamental group $\pi_1(X, x)$ is torsion-free nilpotent. We show that if the first Betti number $b_1(X) \le 3$, then $\pi_1(X, x)$ is isomorphic to either…

The purpose of this article is to obtain dynamically coherence of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms in certain classes of Anosov diffeomorphisms on nilmanifolds, extending a result due to T. Fisher, R. Potrie and M. Sambarino [FPS] on…

We prove that every finitely generated group with recursive aspherical presentation embeds into a group with finite aspherical presentation. This and several known facts about groups and manifolds imply that there exists a 4-dimensional…

A fundamental result of Banyaga states that the Hamiltonian diffeomorphism group of a closed symplectic manifold is perfect. We refine this result by proving that, locally in the $C^\infty$ topology, the number of commutators needed to…

The aim of this paper is to study Sasakian immersions of (non-compact) complete regular Sasakian manifolds into the Heisenberg group and into $ \mathbb{B}^N\times \mathbb{R}$ equipped with their standard Sasakian structures. We obtain a…

A nilpotent quandle is a quandle whose inner automorphism group is nilpotent. Such quandles have been called reductive in previous works, but it turns out that their behaviour is in fact very close to nilpotency for groups. In particular,…

We study the horofunction boundary of finitely generated nilpotent groups, and the natural group action on it. More specifically, we prove the followings results: For discrete Heisenberg groups, we classify the orbits of Busemann points. As…

We show that there exist infinite-dimensional quasi-flats in the compactly supported Hamiltonian diffeomorphism group of the Liouville domain, with respect to the spectral norm, if and only if the symplectic cohomology of this Liouville…
