Let MM be either S2×S2S^2\times S^2 or the one point blow-up $\cp# \bcp$ of $\cp$. In both cases MM carries a family of symplectic forms $\om_\la$, where $\la > -1$ determines the cohomology class $[\om_\la]$. This paper calculates the rational (co)homology of the group $G_\la$ of symplectomorphisms of $(M,\om_\la)$ as …

We analyze empirical data from the internet auction site Aukro.cz. The time series of activity shows truncated fractal structure on scales from about 1 minute to about 1 day. The distribution of waiting times as well as the distribution of number of auctions within fixed interval is a power law, with exponents 1.51.5 an…

Thirty years after the birth of foliations in the 1950's, André Haefliger has introduced a special property satisfied by holonomy pseudogroups of foliations on compact manifolds, called compact generation. Up to now, this is the only general property known about holonomy on compact manifolds. In this article, we give a…

Nous donnons une méthode naturelle, que nous appelons {\it "la méthode des façons"} pour stratifier la variété asymptotique associée à une application polynomiale dominante F:CnCnF: \mathbb{C}^n \to \mathbb{C}^n. La stratification obtenue est différentiable et satisfait la propriété de frontière.

Let (ρ_\la)_{\la\in \La} be a holomorphic family of representations of a surface group π_1(S) into PSL(2,C), where S is a topological (possibly punctured) surface with negative Euler characteristic. Given a structure of Riemann surface of finite type on S we construct a bifurcation current on the parameter space \La, t…

This paper deals with naturally reductive pseudo-Riemannian 2-step nilpotent Lie groups $(N, \la \,,\,\ra_N)$, such that $\la \,,\,\ra_N$ is invariant under a left action. The case of nondegenerate center is completely characterized. In fact, whenever $\la \,,\, \ra_N$ restricts to a metric in the center it is proved h…

Given a closed subset $\La$ of the open unit ball B1nB_1\subset \real^n, n3n \geq 3, we will consider a complete Riemannian metric gg on $\bar{B_1} \setminus \La$ of constant scalar curvature equal to n(n1)n(n-1) and conformally related to the Euclidean metric. In this paper we prove that every closed Euclidean ball $\bar…

In this note a functorial approach to the integration problem of an LA-groupoid to a double Lie groupoid is discussed. To do that, we study the notions of fibred products in the categories of Lie groupoids and Lie algebroids, giving necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of such. In particular, it turns …

We study Bott-Chern and Aeppli cohomologies of a vector space endowed with two anti-commuting endomorphisms whose square is zero. In particular, we prove an inequality à la Frölicher relating the dimensions of the Bott-Chern and Aeppli cohomologies to the dimensions of the Dolbeault cohomologies. We prove that the equa…

For a Riemannian polyhedra, we study the geometry of the unit ball for the unidimensional stable norm (stable ball). In the case of a unidimensional Riemannian polyhedra (graph), we show that the stable ball is a polytope whose vertices are completely described by combinatorial properties of the graph. We study then th…
