The notion of a (stably) decomposable fiber bundle is introduced. In low dimensions, for torus fiber bundles over a circle the notion translates into a property of elements of the special linear group of integral matrices. We give a…
We improve and extend to the non-orientable case a recent result of Karabas, Malicki and Nedela concerning the classification of all orientable prime 3-manifolds of Heegaard genus two, triangulated with at most 42 coloured tetrahedra.
This paper grew out of an attempt to find a suitable finite sheeted covering of an aspherical 3-manifold so that the cover either has infinite or trivial first homology group. With this motivation we define a new class of groups. These…
This is an example on the cohomology of threefolds.
Geometrization says `` any closed oriented three-manifold which is prime (not a connected sum) carries one of the eight Thurston geometries OR it has incompressible torus walls whose complementary components each carry one of four…
In this article we study covering spaces of symplectic toric orbifolds and symplectic toric orbifold bundles. In particular, we show that all symplectic toric orbifold coverings are quotients of some symplectic toric orbifold by a finite…
Let $M_0$ be a compact and orientable 3-manifold. After capping off spherical boundaries with balls and removing any torus boundaries, we prove that the resulting manifold $M$ contains handlebodies of arbitrary genus such that the closure…
We establish a bijective correspondence between the set T(n) of 3-dimensional triangulations with n tetrahedra and a certain class H(n) of relative handlebodies (i.e. handlebodies with boundary loops, as defined by Johannson) of genus n+1.…
We study higher-dimensional homological analogues of bond percolation on a square lattice and site percolation on a triangular lattice. By taking a quotient of certain infinite cell complexes by growing sublattices, we obtain finite cell…
We construct fiber-preserving anti-symplectic involutions for a large class of symplectic manifolds with Lagrangian torus fibrations. In particular, we treat the K3 surface and the quintic threefold. We interpret our results as…
We classify Legendrian torus knots and figure eight knots in the tight contact structure on the 3-sphere up to Legendrian isotopy. As a corollary to this we also obtain the classification of transversal torus knots and figure eight knots up…
Geometrization theorem, fibered case: Every three-manifold that fibers over the circle admits a geometric decomposition. Double limit theorem: for any sequence of quasi-Fuchsian groups whose controlling pair of conformal structures tends…
We consider monopoles with singularities of Dirac type on quasiregular Sasakian three-folds fibering over a compact Riemann surface $\Sigma$, for example the Hopf fibration $S^3\longrightarrow S^2$. We show that these correspond to…
We give a group-theoretic description of the parity of a pull-back of a theta characteristic under a branched covering. It involves lifting monodromy of the covering to the semidirect product of the symmetric and Clifford groups, known as…
We describe a natural strategy to enumerate compact hyperbolic 3-manifolds with geodesic boundary in increasing order of complexity. We show that the same strategy can be employed to analyze simultaneously compact manifolds and…
We obtain an explicit representation, as Dunwoody manifolds, of all cyclic branched coverings of torus knots of type $(p,mp\pm 1)$, with $p>1$ and $m>0$.
By using double branched covers, we prove that there is a 1-1 correspondence between the set of knotoids in the 2-sphere, up to orientation reversion and rotation, and knots with a strong inversion, up to conjugacy. This correspondence…
An EPW-sextic is a special 4-dimensional hypersurfaces of degree 6 which comes equipped with a double cover which generically is a Hyperkaehler 4-fold deformation equivalent to the Hilbert square of a K3 surface. The family of EPW-sextics…
Work of Kalelkar, Schleimer, and Segerman shows that, with some exceptions, the set of essential ideal triangulations of an orientable cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold is connected via 2-3 and 3-2 moves. It is natural to ask if the subgraph…
Those maps of a closed surface to the three-dimensional torus that are homotopic to embeddings are characterized. Particular attention is paid to the somewhat intricate case when the surface is nonorientable.
