Structure and Regularity of Group Actions on One-Manifolds

This book presents the theory of optimal and critical regularities of groups of diffeomorphisms, from the classical work of Denjoy and Herman, up through recent advances. Beginning with an investigation of regularity phenomena for single diffeomorphisms, the book goes on to describes a circle of ideas surrounding Filipkiewicz's Theorem, which recovers the smooth structure of a manifold from its full diffeomorphism group. Topics covered include the simplicity of homeomorphism groups, differentiability of continuous Lie group actions, smooth conjugation of diffeomorphism groups, and the reconstruction of spaces from group actions. Various classical and modern tools are developed for controlling the dynamics of general finitely generated group actions on one-dimensional manifolds, subject to regularity bounds, including material on Thompson's group F, nilpotent groups, right-angled Artin groups, chain groups, finitely generated groups with prescribed critical regularities, and applications to foliation theory and the study of mapping class groups. The book will be of interest to researchers in geometric group theory.

Generalized Polygons

Generalized Polygons is the first book to cover, in a coherent manner, the theory of polygons from scratch. In particular, it fills elementary gaps in the literature and gives an up-to-date account of current research in this area, including most proofs, which are often unified and streamlined in comparison to the versions generally known. Generalized Polygons will be welcomed both by the student seeking an introduction to the subject as well as the researcher who will value the work as a reference. In particular, it will be of great value for specialists working in the field of generalized polygons (which are, incidentally, the rank 2 Tits-buildings) or in fields directly related to Tits-bu...

The Structure of Affine Buildings. (AM-168)

Richard Weiss gives a detailed presentation of the complete proof of the classification of Bruhat-Tits buildings first completed by Jacques Tits in 1986. The book includes numerous results about automorphisms, completions and residues of these buildings.

Positive Definite Functions on Infinite-Dimensional Convex Cones

A memoir that studies positive definite functions on convex subsets of finite- or infinite-dimensional vector spaces. It studies representations of convex cones by positive operators on Hilbert spaces. It also studies the interplay between positive definite functions and representations of convex cones.

Desingularization of Nilpotent Singularities in Families of Planar Vector Fields

This work aims to prove a desingularization theorem for analytic families of two-dimensional vector fields, under the hypothesis that all its singularities have a non-vanishing first jet. Application to problems of singular perturbations and finite cyclicity are discussed in the last chapter.

The $AB$ Program in Geometric Analysis: Sharp Sobolev Inequalities and Related Problems

Function theory and Sobolev inequalities have been the target of investigation for many years. Sharp constants in these inequalities constitute a critical tool in geometric analysis. The $AB$ programme is concerned with sharp Sobolev inequalities on compact Riemannian manifolds. This text summarizes the results of contemporary research and gives an up-to-date report on the field.

Self-Similarity and Multiwavelets in Higher Dimensions

Let $A$ be a dilation matrix, an$n \times n$ expansive matrix that maps a full-rank lattice $\Gamma \subset \R DEGREESn$ into itself. Let $\Lambda$ be a finite subset of$\Gamma$, and for $k \in \Lambda$ let $c_k$ be $r \times r$ complex ma

Noether-Lefschetz Problems for Degeneracy Loci

Studies the cohomology of degeneracy loci. This title assumes that $E\otimes F DEGREES\vee$ is ample and globally generated, and that $\psi$ is a general homomorphism. In order to study the cohomology of $Z$, it considers the Grassmannian bundle $\pi\colon Y: =\mathbb{G}(f-r, F)\to X$ of $(f-r)$-dimensional linear subspaces of the fibre
