The van Kampen-Flores theorem states that the $n$-skeleton of a $(2n+2)$-simplex does not embed into $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$. We give two proofs for its generalization to a continuous map from a skeleton of a certain regular CW complex (e.g. a…

We provide a simple characterization of simplicial complexes on few vertices that embed into the $d$-sphere. Namely, a simplicial complex on $d+3$ vertices embeds into the $d$-sphere if and only if its non-faces do not form an intersecting…

For any positive integer $n$, Lov\'{a}sz-Schrijver, Taniyama and Skopenkov provided examples of simplicial $n$-complexes that inevitably contain a nonsplittable two-component link of $n$-spheres, no matter how they are embedded into the…

A generalization of classical theorems on the existence of sections of real, complex and quaternionic Stiefel manifolds is proved.

We generalize the notion of graph minors to all (finite) simplicial complexes. For every two simplicial complexes H and K and every nonnegative integer m, we prove that if H is a minor of K then the non vanishing of Van Kampen's obstruction…

In this paper, we successfully set up a generalized sphere theorem for compact Riemannian manifolds with radial Ricci curvature bounded.

The van Kampen-Flores theorem states that the $d$-skeleton of a $(2d+2)$-simplex does not embed into $\mathbb{R}^{2d}$. We prove the van Kampen-Flores theorem for triangulations of manifolds satisfying a certain condition on their…

We connect k-triangulations of a convex n-gon to the theory of Schubert polynomials. We use this connection to prove that the simplicial complex with k-triangulations as facets is a vertex-decomposable triangulated sphere, and we give a new…

This thesis focuses on algebraic shifting and its applications to f-vector theory of simplicial complexes and more general graded posets. In particular, several approaches and partial results concerning the g-conjecture for simplicial…

We consider embeddings of a finite complex in a sphere. We give a homotopy theoretic classification of such embeddings in a wide range.

In this paper we use the strength of the constraint method in combination with a generalized Borsuk-Ulam type theorem and a cohomological intersection lemma to show how one can obtain many new topological transversal theorems of Tverberg…

We derive a generalized Stokes' theorem, valid in any dimension and for arbitrary loops, even if self intersecting or knotted. The generalized theorem does not involve an auxiliary surface, but inherits a higher rank gauge symmetry from the…

The well known $g$-conjecture for homology spheres follows from the stronger conjecture that the face ring over the reals of a homology sphere, modulo a linear system of parameters, admits the strong-Lefschetz property. We prove that the…

We generalize the van Kampen theorem for unions of non-connected spaces, due to R. Brown and A. R. Salleh, to the context where families of subspaces of a space B are replaced by a locally sectionable map to B.

The fact that the complete graph $K_5$ does not embed in the plane has been generalized in two independent directions. On the one hand, the solution of the classical Heawood problem for graphs on surfaces established that the complete graph…

We give an exposition of the proof of the lower bound part of the $g$-theorem for simplicial spheres by Adiprasito, Papadakis, and Petrotou.

A Bier sphere $Bier(K) = K\ast_\Delta K^\circ$, defined as the deleted join of a simplicial complex and its Alexander dual $K^\circ$, is a purely combinatorial object (abstract simplicial complex). Here we study a hidden geometry of Bier…

In this paper, we prove some convergence theorems for the mean curvature flow of closed submanifolds in the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n+d}$ under integral curvature conditions. As a consequence, we obtain several differentiable sphere…

As we known, the {\it Seifert-Van Kampen theorem} handles fundamental groups of those topological spaces $X=U\cup V$ for open subsets $U, V\subset X$ such that $U\cap V$ is arcwise connected. In this paper, this theorem is generalized to…

We propose a natural generalization of a conjecture by Garsia, originally concerning the realization of conformal classes of genus-1 surfaces via embeddings in three-dimensional Euclidean space. This generalized conjecture is formulated…
