Novikov's compact leaf theorem

In mathematics, Novikov's compact leaf theorem, named after Sergei Novikov, states that A codimension-one foliation of a compact 3-manifold whose universal covering space is not contractible must have a compact leaf. (Wikipedia).

Math 131 092116 Properties of Compact Sets

Properties of compact sets. Compact implies closed; closed subsets of compact sets are compact; collections of compact sets that satisfy the finite intersection property have a nonempty intersection; infinite subsets of compact sets must have a limit point; the infinite intersection of ne

Math 131 Fall 2018 100318 Heine Borel Theorem

Definition of limit point compactness. Compact implies limit point compact. A nested sequence of closed intervals has a nonempty intersection. k-cells are compact. Heine-Borel Theorem: in Euclidean space, compactness, limit point compactness, and being closed and bounded are equivalent

Clément Dell’aiera - Paires de Hecke et K-théorie

Introduites par Shimura en théorie des nombres dans les années 50, les paires de Hecke sont des inclusions de sous-groupes qui sont presque normales : leurs conjugués sont tous commensurables. À une paire de Hecke est associée un groupe localement compact totalement discontinu : sa complét

Markus Pflaum: The transverse index theorem for proper cocompact actions of Lie groupoids

The talk is based on joint work with H. Posthuma and X. Tang. We consider a proper cocompact action of a Lie groupoid and define a higher index pairing between invariant elliptic differential operators and smooth groupoid cohomology classes. We prove a cohomological index formula for this

Paolo Piazza: The Novikov conjecture on stratified spaces

A Cheeger space is a smoothly stratified pseudomanifold which is in general non-Witt but that admits an additional structure along the strata that allows for the definition of ideal boundary conditions. An interesting example is given by the reductive Borel-Serre compactification of a Hilb

Abstract: The Green-Griffiths-Lang-Vojta conjectures relate the hyperbolicity of an algebraic variety to the finiteness of sets of “rational points”. For instance, it suggests a striking answer to the fundamental question “Why do some polynomial equations with integer coefficients have onl
