The question in the title is discussed briefly, with emphasis on a few basic examples and their properties.
We construct the infinite sequence of invariants for curves in surfaces by using word theory that V. Turaev introduced. For plane closed curves, we add some extra terms, e.g. the rotation number. From these modified invariants, we get the…
We obtain a topological and equivariant classification of closed, connected three-dimensional Alexandrov spaces admitting a local isometric circle action. We show, in particular, that such spaces are homeomorphic to connected sums of some…
A long-standing question is what invariant sets can be shared by two maps acting on the same space. A similar question stands for invariant measures. A particular interesting case are expanding Markov maps of the circle. If the two involved…
This is a short review article on invariants of spatial graphs, written for "A Concise Encyclopedia of Knot Theory" (ed. Adams et. al.). The emphasis is on combinatorial and polynomial invariants of spatial graphs, including the Alexander…
We generalize the classical study of Alexander polynomials of smooth or PL locally-flat knots to PL knots that are not necessarily locally-flat. We introduce three families of generalized Alexander polynomials and study their properties.…
The aim of this paper is to propose an abstract construction of spaces which keep the main properties of the (already known) Hardy spaces H^1. We construct spaces through an atomic (or molecular) decomposition. We prove some results about…
We recall some known and present several new results about Sobolev spaces defined with respect to a measure, in particular a precise pointwise description of the tangent space to this measure in dimension 1. This allows to obtain an…
The Grushin spaces, as one of the most important models in the Carnot-Carath\'eodory space, are a class of locally compact and geodesic metric spaces which admit a dilation. Function spaces on Grushin spaces and some related geometric…
This paper gives a short introduction into the metric theory of spaces with dilations.
We introduce local invariants of algebraic spaces and stacks which measure how far they are from being a scheme. Using these invariants, we develop mostly topological criteria to determine when the moduli space of a stack is a scheme. As an…
We prove that the extremal stratification of an Alexandrov space introduced by Perelman-Petrunin is a CS stratification in the sense of Siebenmann. We also show that every space of directions of an Alexandrov space without proper extremal…
A generalization of metric space is presented which is shown to admit a theory strongly related to that of ordinary metric spaces. To avoid the topological effects related to dropping any of the axioms of metric space, first a new, and…
We introduce a generalization of the notion of Anosov representations by restricting to invariant closed geodesic subflows. Examples of such representations include many non-discrete representations with good geometric properties, such as…
In this article we introduce Variable exponent Fock spaces and study some of their basic properties such as the boundedness of evaluation functionals, density of polynomials, boundedness of a Bergman-type projection and duality.
We characterize the smallest finite spaces with the same homotopy groups of the spheres. Similarly, we describe the minimal finite models of any finite graph. We also develop new combinatorial techniques based on finite spaces to study…
Various Alexandrov-Fenchel type inequalities have appeared and played important roles in convex geometry, matrix theory and complex algebraic geometry. It has been noticed for some time that they share some striking analogies and have…
In this paper, we establish a Bochner type formula on Alexandrov spaces with Ricci curvature bounded below. Yau's gradient estimate for harmonic functions is also obtained on Alexandrov spaces.
The purpose of this work is to describe an abstract theory of Hardy-Sobolev spaces on doubling Riemannian manifolds via an atomic decomposition. We study the real interpolation of these spaces with Sobolev spaces and finally give…
In this paper we propose a theory of contact invariants and open string invariants, which are generalizations of the relative invariants. We introduce two moduli spaces $\bar{\mathcal{M}}_{A}(M^{+},C,g,m+\nu,{\bf y},{\bf…
