We construct explicitly the symmetries of the isospectral deformations as twists of Lie algebras and demonstrate that they are isometries of the deformed spectral triples.
We describe a simple, but effective, method for deriving families of elliptic curves, with high rank, all of whose members have the same torsion subgroup structure.
We give a criterion when a planar tree-like curve, i.e. a generic immersed plane curve each double point of which cuts it into two disjoint parts, can be send by a diffeomorphism of the plane onto a curve with no inflection points. We also…
We introduce new families of quandles that serve as invariants for classifying closed orientable surfaces. These families generalize the classical Dehn quandle and are defined, respectively, on isotopy classes of unoriented closed curves…
We give a brief survey of abelian torsions of 3-manifolds.
We introduce an operation that measures the self intersections of paths on a surface. As applications, we give a criterion of the realizability of a generalized Dehn twist, and derive a geometric constraint on the image of the Johnson…
We prove that, for a closed oriented smooth spin 4-manifold $X$ with non-zero signature, the Dehn twist about a $(+2)$- or $(-2)$-sphere in $X$ is not homotopic to any finite order diffeomorphism. In particular, we negatively answer the…
When using Traizet's regeneration technique to construct minimal surfaces, the simplest nontrivial configurations are given as the roots of polynomials that satisfy a hypergeometric differential equation. We exhibit examples of simple…
In this note we give explicit constructions of decomposable hyperelliptic Jacobian varieties over fields of characteristic $0$. These include hyperelliptic Jacobian varieties that are isogenous to a product of two absolutely simple…
We give a new algorithm to simplify a given triangulation with respect to a given curve. The simplification uses flips together with powers of Dehn twists in order to complete in polynomial time in the bit-size of the curve.
This paper presents two kinds of division polynomials for twisted Edwards curves. Their chief property is that they characterise the $n$-torsion points of a given twisted Edwards curve. We also present results concerning the coefficients of…
Let $N_{g}$ denote the closed non-orientable surface of genus $g$ and let ${\mathcal M} _g$ denote the mapping class group of $N_{g}$. Let ${\mathcal T} _g$ denote the twist subgroup of ${\mathcal M} _g$ which is the subgroup of ${\mathcal…
We propose a new generalisation of the Jordanian twist (building on the previous idea from [Meljanac S., Meljanac D., Pachol A., Pikutic D., J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 50 (2017), 265201, 11 pages]). Obtained this way, the family of the…
The positive Dehn twist expressions for the generalizations of the new involutions described in math.GT/0404310 are presented. The homeomorphism types of the Lefschetz fibrations that they define are determined for several examples.
We review the basic ideas lying at the foundation of the recently developed theory of twisted symmetries of differential equations, and some of its developments.
Let $\mathbb{X}$ be a weighted noncommutative regular projective curve over a field $k$. The category $\operatorname{Qcoh}\mathbb{X}$ of quasicoherent sheaves is a hereditary, locally noetherian Grothendieck category. We classify all…
We study a quasimorphism, which we call the Dehn twist coefficient (DTC), from the mapping class group of a surface (with a chosen compact boundary component) that generalizes the well-studied fractional Dehn twist coefficient (FDTC) to…
For a compact, orientable, irreducible 3-manifold with toroidal boundary that is not the product of a torus and an interval or a cable space, each boundary torus has a finite set of slopes such that, if avoided, the Thurston norm of a Dehn…
We construct relatively bounded toroidal and toric models of relatively bounded fibrations over curves.
We prove an exact sequence relating the Lagrangian Floer homology of a collection of Lagrangian spheres $\{L_i\}$ and the fixed-point Floer homology of iterated Dehn twists along them, making progress toward a conjecture of Seidel.
