The paper discusses rigidity results for inequalities on weighted Riemannian manifolds.

Classifies manifolds and discrete subgroups of Lie groups using descriptive set theory.

We introduce the notion of pullback along a measurable cocycle and we use it to extend the Borel invariant studied by Bucher, Burger and Iozzi to the world of measurable cocycles. The Borel invariant is constant along cohomology classes and has bounded absolute value. This allows to define maximal cocycles. We conclude…

Geometrically connects Laplace eigenfunctions to Borel-Weil theory on symmetric spaces.

The paper studies graded manifolds and their functorial relationship.

In this short note we prove the Borel conjecture for a family of aspherical manifolds that includes higher graph manifolds.

In this note we prove that the Borel class of representations of 3-manifold groups to PGL(n,C) is preserved under Cartan involution up to sign. For representations to PGL(3,C) this is implied by a more general result of E. Falbel and Q. Wang, however our proof appears to be much shorter for that special case.

In this paper, we show that the Euler characteristic of an even dimensional closed projectively flat manifold is equal to the total measure which is induced from a probability Borel measure on RP^n invariant under the holonomy action, and then discuss its consequences and applications. As an application, we show that t…

Study shows how nonstandard hulls can contain metric completions.

Extends holomorphic functions on complex manifolds to larger spaces.

For a compact Lie group acting on a smooth manifold, we define the differential cohomology of a certain quotient stack involving principal bundles with connection. This produces differential equivariant cohomology groups that map to the Cartan-Weil equivariant forms and to Borel's equivariant integral cohomology. We sh…

The study shows how certain ODEs and integrals are regular under Borel summation.

Quantum dilogarithm function proven from a linear difference equation.

A surgery classification theory is introduced for manifolds of bounded geometry up to quasi-isometry. The Borel conjecture for this theory is proven for flat Euclidean space.

Study rigidity of real moment-angle manifolds using cubical geometry.

Study shows Roller compactification's median graph has limited asymptotic dimension.

If $Γ$ is the fundamental group of a complete finite volume hyperbolic $3$-manifold, Guilloux conjectured that the Borel function on the $\text{PSL}(n,\mathbb{C})$-character variety of $Γ$ should be rigid at infinity, that is it should stay bounded away from its maximum at ideal points. In this paper we prove Guilloux'…

Two 4-manifolds are stably diffeomorphic if they become diffeomorphic after connected sum with S^2 x S^2's. This paper shows that two closed, orientable, homotopy equivalent, smooth 4-manifolds are stably diffeomorphic, provided a certain map from the second homology of the fundamental group with coefficients in Z/2 to…

New rigidity results for complex and quaternionic moment-angle manifolds.

New tools analyze the complexity of left-ordering equivalence relations in groups and 3-manifolds.

In this project we further investigate the idea of reducing the dimensionality of datasets using a Borel isomorphism with the purpose of subsequently applying supervised learning algorithms, as originally suggested by my supervisor V. Pestov (in 2011 Dagstuhl preprint). Any consistent learning algorithm, for example kN…

Proves resurgent nature of a series solution to deformed Painlevé I equation.

We survey the recent results and current issues on the topological rigidity problem for closed aspherical manifolds, i.e., connected closed manifolds whose universal coverings are contractible. A number of open problems and conjectures are presented during the course of the discussion. We also review the status and app…

Geometrically proves WKB solutions of Schrödinger equations are resurgent.

Noncommutative Kähler structures were recently introduced by the second author as a framework for studying noncommutative Kähler geometry on quantum homogeneous spaces. It was subsequently observed that the notion of a positive vector bundle directly generalises to this setting, as does the Kodaira vanishing theorem. I…

The Borel Conjecture predicts that closed aspherical manifolds are topological rigid. We want to investigate when a non-aspherical oriented connected closed manifold M is topological rigid in the following sense. If f: N --> M is an orientation preserving homotopy equivalence with a closed oriented manifold as target, …

We show that in all dimensions >7 there are closed aspherical manifolds whose fundamental groups have nontrivial center but do not possess any topological circle actions. This disproves a conjectured converse (proposed by Conner and Raymond) to a classical theorem of Borel.

We describe an explicit semi-algebraic partition for the complement of a real hyperplane arrangement such that each piece is contractible and so that the pieces form a basis of Borel-Moore homology. We also give an explicit correspondence between the de Rham cohomology and the Borel-Moore homology.

We refine the intersection product in homology to an equivariant setting, which unifies several known constructions. As an application, we give a common generalisation of the Chas-Sullivan string product on a manifold and the Chataur-Menichi string product on the classifying space by defining a string product on the Bo…

The paper connects arithmetic invariants of hyperbolic 3-manifolds.

The main result of the paper is a Borel type description of the $Sp(1)^n$-equivariant cohomology ring of the manifold $Fl_n(\mathbb{H})$ of all complete flags in $\mathbb{H}^n$. To prove this, we obtain a Goresky-Kottwitz-MacPherson type description of that ring.

We will prove that Ruelle L-function for a cuspidal local system on an odd dimensional hyperbolic manifold with finite volume satisfies a functional equation and an analog of the Riemann hypothesis. We will also compute its Laurent expansion at the origin and will prove that the second coefficient coincides with a rati…

In this contribution we review results on the kinematics of a quantum system localized on a connected configuration manifold and compatible dynamics for the quantum system including external fields and leading to non-linear Schrödinger equations for pure states.

On an odd-dimensional oriented hyperbolic manifold of finite volume with strongly acyclic coefficient systems, we derive a formula relating analytic torsion with the Reidemeister torsion of the Borel-Serre compactification of the manifold. In a companion paper, this formula is used to derive exponential growth of torsi…

We show that a positive Borel measure of positive finite total mass, on compact Hermitian manifolds, admits a Holder continuous quasi-plurisubharmonic solution to the Monge-Ampere equation if and only if it is dominated locally by Monge-Ampere measures of Holder continuous plurisubharmonic functions.

We prove the Borel Conjecture for a class of groups containing word-hyperbolic groups and groups acting properly, isometrically and cocompactly on a finite dimensional CAT(0)-space.

Equivariant homotopy methods developed over the last 20 years lead to recent breakthroughs in the Borel isomorphism conjectures for Loday assembly maps in K- and L-theories. An important consequence of these algebraic conjectures is the topological rigidity of compact aspherical manifolds. Our goal is to strip the basi…

Maximal and Borel Anosov representations in $Sp(4,\mathbb{R})$ are proven to be Hitchin.

Proves summability of state integrals for specific hyperbolic knots.

Let M be a closed, connected, orientable topological 4-manifold, and G be a finite group acting topologically and locally linearly on M. In this paper we investigate the Borel spectral sequence for the G-equivariant cohomology of M, and establish new bounds on the rank of G for homologically trivial actions with discre…

The BPS decomposition theorem splits cohomology of symmetric stacks into invariant parts.

Heat kernel resurgent structure from Picard-Lefschetz theory

Let $X$ be an algebraic variety over $\mathbb{C}$. We say that $X$ is Borel hyperbolic if, for every finite type reduced scheme $S$ over $\mathbb{C}$, every holomorphic map $S^{an}\to X^{an}$ is algebraic. We use a transcendental specialization technique to prove that $X$ is Borel hyperbolic if and only if, for every s…
