AbstractConsider a connected manifold of dimension at least two and the group of compactly supported diffeomorphisms that are isotopic to the identity through a compactly supported isotopy. This group acts n-transitively: any n-tuple of points can be moved to any other n-tuple by an element of this group. The group of diffeomorphisms of an orbifold is typically not n-transitive: simple obstructions are given by isomorphism classes of isotropy groups of points. In this paper we investigate the transitivity properties of the group of compactly supported diffeomorphisms of orbifolds that are isotopic to the identity through a compactly supported isotopy. We also study an example in the category of area preserving mappings.

We study quasi-morphisms on the groups Pnof pure braids on n strings and on the group [Formula: see text] of compactly supported area-preserving diffeomorphisms of an open two-dimensional disk. We show that it is possible to build quasi-morphisms on Pnby using knot invariants which satisfy some special properties. In particular, we study quasi-morphisms which come from knot Floer homology and Khovanov-type homology. We then discuss possible variations of the Gambaudo–Ghys construction, using the above quasi-morphisms on Pnto build quasi-morphisms on the group [Formula: see text] of diffeomorphisms of a 2-disk.

Abstract Given a compactly supported area-preserving diffeomorphism of the disk, we prove an integral formula relating the asymptotic action to the asymptotic winding number. As a corollary, we obtain a new proof of Fathi’s integral formula for the Calabi homomorphism on the disk.

AbstractWe discuss the experiences and results of the AppStatUZH team’s participation in the comprehensive and unbiased comparison of different spatial approximations conducted in the Competition for Spatial Statistics for Large Datasets. In each of the different sub-competitions, we estimated parameters of the covariance model based on a likelihood function and predicted missing observations with simple kriging. We approximated the covariance model either with covariance tapering or a compactly supported Wendland covariance function.

AbstractWe apply Erdélyi–Kober fractional integrals to the study of Radon type transforms that take functions on the Grassmannian of j-dimensional affine planes in ℝn to functions on a similar manifold of k-dimensional planes by integration over the set of all j-planes that meet a given k-plane at a right angle. We obtain explicit inversion formulas for these transforms in the class of radial functions under minimal assumptions for all admissible dimensions. The general (not necessarily radial) case, but for j + k = n − 1, n odd, was studied by S. Helgason [8] and F. Gonzalez [4, 5] on smooth compactly supported functions.

Abstract We consider Hölder continuous cocycles over an accessible partially hyperbolic system with values in the group of diffeomorphisms of a compact manifold $\mathcal {M}$ . We obtain several results for this setting. If a cocycle is bounded in $C^{1+\gamma }$ , we show that it has a continuous invariant family of $\gamma $ -Hölder Riemannian metrics on $\mathcal {M}$ . We establish continuity of a measurable conjugacy between two cocycles assuming bunching or existence of holonomies for both and pre-compactness in $C^0$ for one of them. We give conditions for existence of a continuous conjugacy between two cocycles in terms of their cycle weights. We also study the relation between the conjugacy and holonomies of the cocycles. Our results give arbitrarily small loss of regularity of the conjugacy along the fiber compared to that of the holonomies and of the cocycle.

AbstractWe characterize the existence of solutions to the quasilinear Riccati-type equation\left\{\begin{aligned} \displaystyle-\operatorname{div}\mathcal{A}(x,\nabla u)% &\displaystyle=|\nabla u|^{q}+\sigma&&\displaystyle\phantom{}\text{in }\Omega,% \\ \displaystyle u&\displaystyle=0&&\displaystyle\phantom{}\text{on }\partial% \Omega,\end{aligned}\right.with a distributional or measure datum σ. Here {\operatorname{div}\mathcal{A}(x,\nabla u)} is a quasilinear elliptic operator modeled after the p-Laplacian ({p>1}), and Ω is a bounded domain whose boundary is sufficiently flat (in the sense of Reifenberg). For distributional data, we assume that {p>1} and {q>p}. For measure data, we assume that they are compactly supported in Ω, {p>\frac{3n-2}{2n-1}}, and q is in the sub-linear range {p-1<q<1}. We also assume more regularity conditions on {\mathcal{A}} and on {\partial\Omega\Omega} in this case.

Let M be a G-manifold and ω a G-invariant exact m-form on M. We indicate when these data allow us to construct a cocycle on a group G with values in the trivial G-module ℝ, and when this cocycle is nontrivial.
