We show that Banyaga's Hofer-like norm, a generalization of the Hofer norm coincides with the classical Hofer norm when restricted to Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms on compact symplectic manifolds. This result proves a conjecture of Banyaga…

The Cannon Conjecture for a torsionfree hyperbolic group G with boundary homeomorphic to S^2 says that G is the fundamental group of an aspherical closed 3-manifold M. It is known that then M is a hyperbolic 3-manifold. We prove the stable…

We give a proof that every complete two-sided stable minimal surface in $\mathbb{R}^3$ is flat using the index theory for Dirac operators on twisted spinor bundles.

We use classical techniques to answer some questions raised by Daniele Celoria about almost-concordance of knots in arbitrary closed $3$-manifolds. We first prove that, given $Y^3 \neq S^3$, for any non-trivial element $g\in \pi_1(Y)$ there…

In this paper, we obtain results on rigidity of complete Riemannian manifolds with weighted Poincar\'e inequality. As an application, we prove that if $M$ is a complete $\frac{n-2}{n}$-stable minimal hypersurface in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ with…

We provide a short proof for the theorem that two compact Riemannian manifolds are isomorphic if and only there exists an order isomorphism which intertwines between the heat semigroups on the manifolds.

For any smooth compact manifold $W$ of dimension at least two we prove that the classifying spaces of its group of diffeomorphisms which fix a set of $k$ points or $k$ embedded disks (up to permutation) satisfy homology stability. The same…

The Poincar\'{e} lemma (or Volterra theorem) is of utmost importance both in theory and in practice. It tells us every differential form which is closed, is locally exact. In other words, on a contractible manifold all closed forms are…

"V - E + F = 2", the famous Euler's polyhedral formula, has a natural generalization to convex polytopes in every finite dimension, also known as the Euler-Poincar\'e Formula. We provide another short inductive proof of the general formula.…

In this article, we consider compact Riemannian 3-manifolds with boundary. We prove that if the $L^2$-norm of the curvature is small and if the $H^{1/2}$-norm of the difference of the fundamental forms of the boundary is small, then the…

We prove that the higher signature for any close oriented manifold is a simple-homotopy invariant.

We prove that a graph is intrinsically linked in an arbitrary 3-manifold M if and only if it is intrinsically linked in S^3. Also, assuming the Poincare Conjecture, we prove that a graph is intrinsically knotted in M if and only if it is…

It is a well-known result of C.T.C. Wall's that one may decompose a simply connected 6-manifold as a connected sum of two simpler manifolds. Recent work of Beben and Theriault on decomposing based loop spaces of highly connected Poincar\'e…

A (flat) affine $3$-manifold is a $3$-manifold with an atlas of charts to an affine space $\mathbb{R}^3$ with transition maps in the affine transformation group $\mathrm{Aff}(\mathbb{R}^3)$. We will show that a connected closed affine…

The Poincar\'e-Hopf Theorem relates the Euler characteristic of a 2-dimensional compact manifold to the local behavior of smooth vector fields defined on it. However, despite the importance of Filippov vector fields, concerning both their…

We show that every $PD_3$-complex $P$ bounds a $PD_4$-pair $(Z,P)$. If $P$ is orientable we may assume that $\pi_1(Z)=1$. We show also that if $P$ has a manifold 1-skeleton then it is homotopy equivalent to a closed 3-manifold, and that if…

The Nielsen Conjecture for Homeomorphisms asserts that any homeomorphism $f$ of a closed manifold is isotopic to a map realizing the Nielsen number of $f$, which is a lower bound for the number of fixed points among all maps homotopic to…

In this paper, we treat an open problem related to the number of periodic orbits of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms on closed symplectic manifolds, so-called generic Conley conjecture. Generic Conley conjecture states that generically…

We show that the Sobolev embedding is compact on punctured manifolds with conical singularities. On the other hand, we find the Sobolev inequality does not hold on punctured manifolds with Poincar\'{e} like metric, on which one has…

We use automorphic forms to prove that a compact family of Kaehler K3 surfaces with constant Picard number is isotrivial.
