Grothendieck topologies from unique factorisation systems

This article presents a way to associate a Grothendieck site structure to a category endowed with a unique factorisation system of its arrows. In particular this recovers the Zariski and Etale topologies and others related to Voevodsky's cd-structures. As unique factorisation systems are also frequent outside algebraic geometry, the same construction applies to some new contexts, where it is related with known structures dened otherwise. The paper details algebraic geometrical situations and sketches only the other contexts.

Generic super-exponential stability of invariant tori in Hamiltonian systems

In this article, we consider solutions starting close to some linearly stable invariant tori in an analytic Hamiltonian system and we prove results of stability for a super-exponentially long interval of time, under generic conditions. The proof combines classical Birkhoff normal forms and a new method to obtain generic Nekhoroshev estimates developed by the author and L. Niederman in another paper. We will mainly focus on the neighbourhood of elliptic fixed points, the other cases being completely similar.

Monopolistic competition and different wage setting systems

In this paper we match the static disequilibrium unemployment model without frictions in the labor market and monopolistic competition with an infinite horizon model of growth. We compare the wages set at the firm, sector and national (centralized) levels, their unemployment rates and growth of the economic variables, for the Cobb-Douglas production function, in order to see under wich conditions the inverse U hypothesis between unemployment and centralization of wage bargain is confirmed. We also analyze, in the three wage setting systems, the effect of an increase in the monopoly power on employment and growth.
