Bounded and unbounded cohomology of homeomorphism and diffeomorphism groups

Nicolas Monod

We determine the bounded cohomology of the group of homeomorphisms of certain low-dimensional manifolds. In particular, for the group of orientation-preserving homeomorphisms of the circle and of the closed 2-disc, it is isomorphic to the polynomial ring g ...

Non-Hermitian time evolution: From static to parametric instability

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Aleksi Antoine Bossart

Eigenmode coalescence imparts remarkable properties to non-Hermitian time evolution, culminating in a purely non-Hermitian spectral degeneracy known as an exceptional point (EP). Here, we revisit time evolution around EPs, looking at both static and period ...

Coherent actions by homeomorphisms on the real line or an interval

Yash Lodha

We study actions of groups by orientation preserving homeomorphisms on R (or an interval) that are minimal, have solvable germs at +/-infinity and contain a pair of elements of a certain dynamical type. We call such actions coherent. We establish that such ...

Approximating nonabelian free groups by groups of homeomorphisms of the real line

Yash Lodha

We show that for a large class C of finitely generated groups of orientation preserving homeomorphisms of the real line, the following holds: Given a group G of rank k in C, there is a sequence of k-markings (G,S-n), n is an element of N whose limit in the ...

Structural Properties Of Dendrite Groups

Nicolas Monod

Let G be the homeomorphism group of a dendrite. We study the normal subgroups of G. For instance, there are uncountably many nonisomorphic such groups G that are simple groups. Moreover, these groups can be chosen so that any isometric G-action on any metr ...

Kaleidoscopic groups: permutation groups constructed from dendrite homeomorphisms

Nicolas Monod

Given a transitive permutation group, a fundamental object for studying its higher transitivity properties is the permutation action of its isotropy subgroup. We reverse this relationship and introduce a universal construction of infinite permutation group ...

Twisting structures and morphisms up to strong homotopy

Kathryn Hess Bellwald

We define twisted composition products of symmetric sequences via classifying morphisms rather than twisting cochains. Our approach allows us to establish an adjunction that simultaneously generalizes a classic one for algebras and coalgebras, and the bar- ...

The cup product of Brooks quasimorphisms

Nicolas Monod

We prove the vanishing of the cup product of the bounded cohomology classes associated to any two Brooks quasimorphisms on the free group. This is a consequence of the vanishing of the square of a universal class for tree automorphism groups. ...

Modular functors, cohomological field theories, and topological recursion

Nicolas Gerson Orantin

Given a topological modular functor V in the sense of Walker, we construct vector bundles Z (lambda) over bar, over (M) over bar (g,n) whose Chern characters define semi-simple cohomological field theories. This construction depends on a determinati ...

Nielsen Equivalence In Gupta-Sidki Groups

Aglaia Myropolska

For a group G generated by k elements, the Nielsen equivalence classes are defined as orbits of the action of AutF(k), the automorphism group of the free group of rank k, on the set of generating k-tuples of G. Let p >= 3 be prime and G(p) the Gupta-Sidki ...
