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…

Matrix transposition induces an involution on the isomorphism classes of semi-simple n-dimensional representations of the three string braid group. We show that a connected component of this variety can detect braid-reversion or that the…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group and also let $H$ be a compact subgroup of $G$. It is shown that, if $\mu$ is a relatively invariant measure on $G/H$ then there is a well-defined convolution on $L^1(G/H,\mu)$ such that the Banach space…

We draw a handlebody picture of the Hacon-Pardini surface. This is a complex surface obtained by taking the quotient of a product of two surfaces of genus 2 and 3, under the product of two involutions: the hypergeometric and a fixed point…

We consider the moduli space of rank 2 Higgs bundles with fixed determinant over a smooth projective curve X of genus 2 over the complex numbers, and study involutions defined by tensoring the vector bundle with an element $\alpha$ of order…

The complete sets of irreducible triangulations are known for the orientable surfaces with genus of 0, 1, or 2 and for the nonorientable surfaces with genus of 1, 2, 3, or 4. By examining these sets we determine some of the properties of…

Here we explore the geometry of the osculating spaces to projective varieties of arbitrary dimension. In particular, we classify varieties having very degenerate higher order osculating spaces and we determine mild conditions for the…

We prove twisted homological stability for handlebody mapping class groups. Using the categorical framework developed by Randal-Williams and Wahl, we establish that the homology of the handlebody groups stabilises with respect to both genus…

We characterize bijections on matrix spaces (operator algebras) preserving full rank (invertibility) of differences of matrix (operator) pairs in both directions.

Let $M$ be a closed orientable 3-manifold with a genus two Heegaard splitting $(V_1, V_2; F)$ and a non-trivial JSJ-decomposition, where all components of the intersection of the JSJ-tori and $V_i$ are not $\partial$-parallel in $V_i$ for…

We show that, if g is more than or equal to 2, the virtual cohomological dimension of the mapping class group of a 3-dimensional handlebody of genus g is equal to 4g-5 and the Euler number of it is equal to 0.

In the paper we give a complete classification of $2$-dimensional evolution algebras over algebraically closed fields, describe their groups of automorphisms and derivation algebras.

We consider evolution equations for curves in the 3-dimensional sphere $S^3$ that are invariant under the group $SU(2,1)$ of pseudoconformal transformations, which preserves the standard contact structure on the sphere. In particular, we…

We study genus 3 hyperelliptic curves which have an extra involution. The locus $\L_3$ of these curves is a 3-dimensional subvariety in the genus 3 hyperelliptic moduli $\H_3$. We find a birational parametrization of this locus by affine…

In this article we investigate a system of geometric evolution equations describing a curvature driven motion of a family of 3D curves in the normal and binormal directions. Evolving curves may be subject of mutual interactions having both…

We investigate a multi-locus evolutionary model which is based on the DNA shuffling protocol widely applied in \textit{in vitro} directed evolution. This model incorporates selection, recombination and point mutations. The simplicity of the…

We associate to every central simple algebra with involution of orthogonal type in characteristic two a totally singular quadratic form which reflects certain anisotropy properties of the involution. It is shown that this quadratic form can…

We consider finite group-actions on closed, orientable and nonorientable 3-manifolds; such a finite group-action leaves invariant the two handlebodies of a Heegaard splitting of M of some genus g. The maximal possible order of a finite…
