We study isometric actions of Steinberg groups on Hadamard manifolds. We prove some rigidity properties related to these actions. In particular, we show that every isometric action of [Formula: see text] on Hadamard manifold when [Formula: see text] factors through a finite quotient. We further study actions on infinite-dimensional manifolds and prove a fixed-point theorem related to such actions.

Let$X$be a proper, geodesically complete CAT($0$) space under a proper, non-elementary, isometric action by a group$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}$with a rank one element. We construct a generalized Bowen–Margulis measure on the space of unit-speed parametrized geodesics of$X$modulo the$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}$-action. Although the construction of Bowen–Margulis measures for rank one non-positively curved manifolds and for CAT($-1$) spaces is well known, the construction for CAT($0$) spaces hinges on establishing a new structural result of independent interest: almost no geodesic, under the Bowen–Margulis measure, bounds a flat strip of any positive width. We also show that almost every point in$\unicode[STIX]{x2202}_{\infty }X$, under the Patterson–Sullivan measure, is isolated in the Tits metric. (For these results we assume the Bowen–Margulis measure is finite, as it is in the cocompact case.) Finally, we precisely characterize mixing when$X$has full limit set: a finite Bowen–Margulis measure is not mixing under the geodesic flow precisely when$X$is a tree with all edge lengths in$c\mathbb{Z}$for some$c>0$. This characterization is new, even in the setting of CAT($-1$) spaces. More general (technical) versions of these results are also stated in the paper.

In this paper, we study a class of Caputo fractional q-difference inclusions in Banach spaces. We obtain some existence results by using the set-valued analysis, the measure of noncompactness, and the fixed point theory (Darbo and Mönch’s fixed point theorems). Finally we give an illustrative example in the last section. We initiate the study of fractional q-difference inclusions on infinite dimensional Banach spaces.
