Notes for Rigidity Seminar Gromov’s Proof of Mostow Rigidity Theorem
we introduce a homological invariant of a manifold known as Gromov’s norm. Gromov’s norm of hyperbolic manifolds will be seen to be proportional to the volume of the manifold. The first striking consequence of this result is that the volume of a hyperbolic manifold is a topological invariant. Intuitively, Gromov’s norm measures the efficiency with which multiples of a homology class can be repr...
متن کاملRigidity and lack of rigidity for solenoidal matrix fields
We study the problem of identifying conditions under which a divergence free matrix field takes values in some prescribed sets of matrices K. We treat in detail the case when K is made of two or three matrices. Our results are parallel to those on curl free matrices. In that case Ball and James showed rigidity when K is made of two matrices and Tartar proved lack of rigidity when K is made of f...
متن کاملGeneralised Rigidity and Path-Rigidity for Agent Formations
The classical concept of rigidity characterises conditions under which distance constraints between agents in R enforce a rigid structure on the whole collection of agents. The present paper has two goals. Firstly, we propose a generalised theory for rigidity to allow heterogeneous agent states on non-Euclidean spaces and general non-linear relative state constraints. To do this, we characteris...
متن کاملRigidity Theory for Matroids
Combinatorial rigidity theory seeks to describe the rigidity or flexibility of bar-joint frameworks in R in terms of the structure of the underlying graph G. The goal of this article is to broaden the foundations of combinatorial rigidity theory by replacing G with an arbitrary representable matroid M . The ideas of rigidity independence and parallel independence, as well as Laman’s and Recski’...
متن کاملRigidity for Quasi - Möbius
If a group acts by uniformly quasi-Möbius homeomorphisms on a compact Ahlfors n-regular space of topological dimension n such that the induced action on the space of distinct triples is cocompact, then the action is quasi-symmetrically conjugate to an action on the standard n-sphere by Möbius transformations.
