For a given pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism $varphi$ of a closed surface $S$, the action of $varphi$ on the Teichm"uller space $mathcal T(S)$ preserves the Weil-Petersson symplectic form. We give explicit formulae for two invariant functions $mathcal T(S)to mathbb R$ whose symplectic gradients generate autonomous Hamiltonian flows that coincide with the action of $varphi$ at time one. We compute the Poisson bracket between these two functions. This amounts to computing the variation of length of a H"older cocyle on one lamination along a shear vector field defined by another. For a measurably generic set of laminations, we prove that the variation of length is expressed as the cosine of the angle between the two laminations integrated against the product H"older distribution, generalizing a result of Kerckhoff. We also obtain rates of convergence for the supports of germs of differentiable paths of measured laminations in the Hausdorff metric on a hyperbolic surface, which may be of independent interest.

. For hypersurfaces moving by standard mean curvature flow with boundary, we show that if the tangent flow at a boundary singularity is given by a smoothly embedded shrinker, then the shrinker must be non-orientable. We also show that there is an initially smooth surface in R 3 that develops a boundary singularity for which the shrinker is smoothly embedded (and therefore non-orientable). Indeed, we show that there is a nonempty open set of such initial surfaces. Let κ be the largest number with the following property: if M is a minimal surface in R 3 bounded by a smooth simple closed curve of total curvature < κ , then M is a disk. Examples show that κ < 4 π . In this paper, we use mean curvature flow to show that κ > 3 π . We get a slightly larger lower bound for orientable surfaces.

We give effective bilipschitz bounds on the change in metric between thick parts of a cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold and its long Dehn fillings. In the thin parts of the manifold, we give effective bounds on the change in complex length of a short closed geodesic. These results quantify the filling theorem of Brock and Bromberg, and extend previous results of the authors from finite volume hyperbolic 3-manifolds to any tame hyperbolic 3-manifold. To prove the main results, we assemble tools from Kleinian group theory into a template for transferring theorems about finite-volume manifolds into theorems about infinite-volume manifolds. We also prove and apply an infinite-volume version of the 6-Theorem.

We prove an upper bound on the rank of the abelianised revised fundamental group (called"revised first Betti number") of a compact $RCD^{*}(K,N)$ space, in the same spirit of the celebrated Gromov-Gallot upper bound on the first Betti number for a smooth compact Riemannian manifold with Ricci curvature bounded below. When the synthetic lower Ricci bound is close enough to (negative) zero and the aforementioned upper bound on the revised first Betti number is saturated (i.e. equal to the integer part of $N$, denoted by $lfloor N rfloor$), then we establish a torus stability result stating that the space is $lfloor N rfloor$-rectifiable as a metric measure space, and a finite cover must be mGH-close to an $lfloor N rfloor$-dimensional flat torus; moreover, in case $N$ is an integer, we prove that the space itself is bi-H"older homeomorphic to a flat torus. This second result extends to the class of non-smooth $RCD^{*}(-delta, N)$ spaces a celebrated torus stability theorem by Colding (later refined by Cheeger-Colding).
我们证明了紧$RCD^{*}(K,N)$空间的阿贝列化修正基本群(称为“修正第一Betti数”)的秩上界,其精神与著名的具有Ricci曲率的光滑紧黎曼流形的第一Betti数的Gromov-Gallot上界相同。当合成下界足够接近于(负)零,且修正后的第一Betti数上的上界饱和(即等于$N$的整数部分,记为$lfloor N rfloor$),则我们建立了环面稳定性结果,表明该空间作为度量度量空间是$lfloor N rfloor$-可整流的,并且有限覆盖必须mgh -接近$lfloor N rfloor$-维平面环面;此外,当$N$是整数时,我们证明了空间本身是平面环面的bi-H old同胚。第二个结果推广到一类非光滑的$RCD^{*}(-delta, N)$空间,这是由Colding提出的著名环面稳定性定理(后来由Cheeger-Colding改进)。

We prove characterizations of skew-amenability for topological groups of isometries and automorphisms, clarify the connection with extensive amenability of group actions, establish a Folner-type characterization, and discuss closure properties of the class of skew-amenable topological groups. Moreover, we isolate a dynamical sufficient condition for skew-amenability and provide several concrete variations of this criterion in the context of transformation groups. These results are then used to decide skew-amenability for a number of examples of topological groups built from or related to Thompson's group $F$ and Monod's group of piecewise projective homeomorphisms of the real line.

We show the existence of rank 6 Ulrich bundles on a smooth cubic fourfold. First, we construct a simple sheaf E of rank 6 as an elementary modification of an ACM bundle of rank 6 on a smooth cubic fourfold. Such an E appears as an extension of two Lehn-Lehn-Sorger-van Straten sheaves. Then we prove that a general deformation of E(1) becomes Ulrich. In particular, this says that general cubic fourfolds have Ulrich complexity 6.
