Let $\rho_0$ be the standard action of a higher-rank lattice $\Gamma$ on a torus by automorphisms induced by a homomorphism $\pi_0:\Gamma\to SL(n,{\Bbb Z})$. Assume that there exists an abelian group ${\cal A}\subset \Gamma$ such that $\pi_0({\cal A})$ satisfies the following conditions: (1) ${\cal A}$ is ${\Bbb R}$-diagonalizable; (2) there exists an element $a\in {\cal A}$, such that none of its eigenvalues $\lambda_1,\dots,\lambda_n$ has unit absolute value, and for all $i,j,k=1,\dots,n$, $|\lambda_i\lambda_j|\neq|\lambda_k|$; (3) for each Lyapunov functional $\chi_i$, there exist finitely many elements $a_j\in {\cal A}$ such that $E_{\chi_i}=\cap_{j} E^u(a_j)$ (see \S1 for definitions). Then $\rho_0$ is locally rigid. This local rigidity result differs from earlier ones in that it does not require a certain one-dimensionality condition.

In this paper, we show local smooth rigidity for higher rank ergodic nilpotent action by toral automorphisms. In former papers all examples for actions enjoying the local smooth rigidity phenomenon are higher rank and have no rank-one factors. In this paper we give examples of smooth rigidity of actions having rank-one factors. The method is a generalization of the KAM (Kolmogorov–Arnold–Moser) iterative scheme.

AbstractWe investigate topological realizations of higher-rank graphs. We show that the fundamental group of a higher-rank graph coincides with the fundamental group of its topological realization. We also show that topological realization of higher-rank graphs is a functor and that for each higher-rank graphΛ, this functor determines a category equivalence between the category of coverings ofΛand the category of coverings of its topological realization. We discuss how topological realization relates to two standard constructions fork-graphs: projective limits and crossed products by finitely generated free abelian groups.
