John Milnor, best known for his work in differential topology, K-theory, and dynamical systems, is one of only three mathematicians to have won the Fields medal, the Abel prize, and the Wolf prize, and is the only one to have received all three of the Leroy P. Steele prizes. In honor of his eightieth birthday, this book gathers together surveys and papers inspired by Milnor's work, from distinguished experts examining not only holomorphic dynamics in one and several variables, but also differential geometry, entropy theory, and combinatorial group theory. The book contains the last paper written by William Thurston, as well as a short paper by John Milnor himself. Introductory sections put the papers in mathematical and historical perspective, color figures are included, and an index facilitates browsing.

Fractal groups (also called self-similar groups) is the class of groups discovered by the first author in the 1980s with the purpose of solving some famous problems in mathematics, including the question of raising to von Neumann about non-elementary amenability (in the association with studies around the Banach-Tarski Paradox) and John Milnor’s question on the existence of groups of intermediate growth between polynomial and exponential. Fractal groups arise in various fields of mathematics, including the theory of random walks, holomorphic dynamics, automata theory, operator algebras, etc. They have relations to the theory of chaos, quasi-crystals, fractals, and random Schrödinger operators. One important development is the relation of fractal groups to multi-dimensional dynamics, the theory of joint spectrum of pencil of operators, and the spectral theory of Laplace operator on graphs. This paper gives a quick access to these topics, provides calculation and analysis of multi-dimensional rational maps arising via the Schur complement in some important examples, including the first group of intermediate growth and its overgroup, contains a discussion of the dichotomy “integrable-chaotic” in the considered model, and suggests a possible probabilistic approach to studying the discussed problems.

AbstractWe systematically study Schottky group actions on homogeneous rational manifolds and find two new families besides those given by Nori’s well-known construction. This yields new examples of non-Kähler compact complex manifolds having free fundamental groups. We then investigate their analytic and geometric invariants such as the Kodaira and algebraic dimension, the Picard group and the deformation theory, thus extending results due to Lárusson and to Seade and Verjovsky. As a byproduct, we see that the Schottky construction allows to recover examples of equivariant compactifications of {{\rm{SL}}(2,\mathbb{C})/\Gamma} for Γ a discrete free loxodromic subgroup of {{\rm{SL}}(2,\mathbb{C})}, previously obtained by A. Guillot.

Abstract For every positive integer r, we introduce two new cohomologies, that we call E r {E_{r}} -Bott–Chern and E r {E_{r}} -Aeppli, on compact complex manifolds. When r = 1 {r\kern-1.0pt=\kern-1.0pt1} , they coincide with the usual Bott–Chern and Aeppli cohomologies, but they are coarser, respectively finer, than these when r ≥ 2 {r\geq 2} . They provide analogues in the Bott–Chern–Aeppli context of the E r {E_{r}} -cohomologies featuring in the Frölicher spectral sequence of the manifold. We apply these new cohomologies in several ways to characterise the notion of page- ( r - 1 ) {(r-1)} - ∂ ⁡ ∂ ¯ {\partial\bar{\partial}} -manifolds that we introduced very recently. We also prove analogues of the Serre duality for these higher-page Bott–Chern and Aeppli cohomologies and for the spaces featuring in the Frölicher spectral sequence. We obtain a further group of applications of our cohomologies to the study of Hermitian-symplectic and strongly Gauduchon metrics for which we show that they provide the natural cohomological framework.
