We explore and extend the application of homological algebra to describe quantum entanglement, initiated in arXiv:1901.02011, focusing on the Hodge-theoretic structure of entanglement cohomology in finite-dimensional quantum systems. We…
Picture-valued invariants are the main achievement of parity theory by V.O. Manturov. In the paper we give a general description of such invariants which can be assigned to a parity (in general, a trait) on diagram crossings. We distinguish…
It is quite an interesting phenomenon in Topology that configuration spaces on a manifold M are intrinsically related to certain mapping spaces from M. In this paper we interpret and greatly expand on this relationship. Building (mainly) on…
Let $X$ be a $4$-dimensional toric orbifold. If $H^3(X)$ has a non-trivial odd primary torsion, then we show that $X$ is homotopy equivalent to the wedge of a Moore space and a CW-complex. As a corollary, given two 4-dimensional toric…
Formanek made the conjecture that the minimal degree of the central polynomials for the $n\times n$ matrix algebra over a field of characteristic 0 is $(n^2+3n-2)/2$ and this is true for $n\leq 3$. For $n=4$ there are examples of central…
In [22], Crane and Sheppard considered the structure of the Poincare group as a 2-Group, and derived important information about its representations in a 2-Category suited for representations of non-compact 2-groups, following a lead of…
We work over a field K of characteristic zero. The Poincare series for the algebra C_{n,2} of GL_n-invariants and the algebra T_{n,2} of GL_n-concomitants of two generic n x n matrices x and y are presented for n less than or equal 6. Both…
Among its many corollaries, Poincare duality implies that the de Rham cohomology of a compact oriented manifold is a shifted commutative Frobenius algebra --- a commutative Frobenius algebra in which the comultiplication has cohomological…
We construct algorithms and topological invariants that allow us to distinguish the topological type of a surface, as well as functions and vector fields for their topological equivalence. In the first part (arXiv:2501.15657), we discused…
Finite-dimensional Hopf algebras admit a correspondence between so-called pairs in involution, one-dimensional anti-Yetter--Drinfeld modules and algebra isomorphisms between the Drinfeld and anti-Drinfeld double. We extend it to general…
We define several homology theories for central hyperplane arrangements, categorifying well-known polynomial invariants including the characteristic polynomial, Poincare polynomial, and Tutte polynomial. We consider basic algebraic…
We build free, bigraded bidifferential algebra models for the forms on a complex manifold, with respect to a strong notion of quasi-isomorphism and compatible with the conjugation symmetry. This answers a question of Sullivan. The resulting…
This paper describes an equivalence of the canonical category of $\mathbb N$-manifolds of degree $2$ with a category of involutive double vector bundles. More precisely, we show how involutive double vector bundles are in duality with…
A piecewise constant curvature manifold is a triangulated manifold that is assigned a geometry by specifying lengths of edges and stipulating that for a chosen background geometry (Euclidean, hyperbolic, or spherical), each simplex has an…
We use dual graphs and generating sequences of valuations to compute the Poincare series of non-divisorial valuations on function fields of dimension two. The Poincare series are shown to reflect data from the dual graphs and hence carry…
We present a new simple proof of the fact that certain group manifolds as well as certain homogeneous spaces G/H of dimension 4n admit a quaternionic triple of integrable complex structures that are covariantly constant with respect to the…
Using geometric arguments, we compute the group of homotopy classes of maps from a closed $(n+1)$-dimensional manifold to the $n$-sphere for $n \geq 3$. Our work extends results from Kirby, Melvin and Teichner for closed oriented…
We study the ``twisted" Poincar\'e duality of smooth Poisson manifolds, and show that, if the modular vector field is diagonalizable, then there is a mixed complex associated to the Poisson complex, which, combining with the twisted…
This paper gives an algebraic conjecture which is shown to be equivalent to Thurston's Geometrization Conjecture for closed, orientable 3-manifolds. It generalizes the Stallings-Jaco theorem which established a similar result for the…
Pattern-equivariant (PE) cohomology is a well-established tool with which to interpret the \v{C}ech cohomology groups of a tiling space in a highly geometric way. In this paper we consider homology groups of PE infinite chains. We establish…
