A locally conformally K\"ahler (LCK) manifold is a complex manifold covered by a K\"ahler manifold, with the covering group acting by homotheties. We show that if such a compact manifold X admits a holomorphic submersion with positive…

In this paper we study $\mathcal M(X)$, the set of diffeomorphism classes of smooth manifolds with the simple homotopy type of $X$, via a map $\Psi$ from $\mathcal M(X)$ into the quotient of $K(X)=[X,BSO]$ by the action of the group of…

Take n>k>1 such that n-k is odd. In this paper we consider mapping a from (n-k+1)-dimensional closed ball into the space of (n \times k)--matrices such that its restriction to a sphere goes into the Stiefel manifold V_k(R^n). We construct a…

A quasitoric manifold is a $2n$-dimensional compact smooth manifold with a locally standard action of an $n$-dimensional torus whose orbit space is a simple polytope. In this article, we classify quasitoric manifolds with the second Betti…

We prove that the morphisms from a minimal Sullivan algebra $\Lambda V$ to $A_{PL}(|\Lambda V|)$, the algebra of polynomial differential forms on its realization, can be quasi-isomorphic if and only if the cohomology $H(\Lambda V)$ is of…

The purpose of this paper is to generalise Sullivan's rational homotopy theory to non-nilpotent spaces, providing an alternative approach to defining Toen's schematic homotopy types over any field k of characteristic zero. New features…

We define secondary theories and characteristic classes for simplicial smooth manifolds generalizing Karoubi's multiplicative K-theory and multiplicative cohomology groups for smooth manifolds. As a special case we get versions of the…

A locally conformally K\"ahler (LCK) manifold $M$ is one which is covered by a K\"ahler manifold $\tilde M$ with the deck transform group acting conformally on $\tilde M$. If $M$ admits a holomorphic flow, acting on $\tilde M$ conformally,…

A new approach for constructing minimal submanifolds of codimension 1 in the round spheres is proposed. In the case of $\mathbb{S}^3$ two immersions of the Clifford torus and all Lawson $\tau_{n, m}$ surfaces are described in terms of…

A $k$-orbit maniplex is one that has $k$ orbits of flags under the action of its automorphism group. In this paper we extend the notion of symmetry type graphs of maps to that of maniplexes and polytopes and make use of them to study…

We find conditions which ensure that the topological complexity of a closed manifold $M$ with abelian fundamental group is nonmaximal, and see through examples that our conditions are sharp. This generalizes results of Costa and Farber on…

We consider nearly K\"ahler 6-manifolds with effective 2-torus symmetry. The multi-moment map for the $T^2$-action becomes an eigenfunction of the Laplace operator. At regular values, we prove the $T^2$-action is necessarily free on the…

Locally conformally Kahler (LCK) manifolds with potential are those which admit a Kahler covering with a proper, automorphic Kaehler potential. Existence of a potential can be characterized cohomologically as a vanishing of a certain…

We show that, under very general hypotheses, topological quantum field theories (TQFTs) cannot detect homotopy spheres bounding parallelisable manifolds, such as Milnor's exotic 7-dimensional sphere. The result holds for a wide variety of…

We prove that a Murai sphere is flag if and only if it is a nerve complex of a flag nestohedron and classify all the polytopes arising in this way. Our classification implies that flag Murai spheres satisfy the Nevo-Petersen conjecture on…

We investigate the equivariant topological rigidity of complex and quaternionic moment--angle manifolds. By reducing the classification to the equivariant rigidity of their quasitoric (or quoric) quotients and the classification of the…

A locally conformally Kahler (LCK) manifold is a complex manifold with a Kahler structure on its covering and the deck transform group acting on it by holomorphic homotheties. One could think of an LCK manifold as of a complex manifold with…

We investigate the $\Lambda$-polytopes, a convex-linear structure recently defined and applied to the classical simulation of quantum computation with magic states by sampling. There is one such polytope, $\Lambda_n$, for every number $n$…

We give a new construction of noncommutative surfaces via elliptic difference operators, attaching a 1-parameter noncommutative deformation to any projective rational surface with smooth anticanonical curve. The construction agrees with one…

We present a non-trivial metric tensor field on the space of 2-by-2 real-valued, symmetric matrices whose Levi-Civita connection renders frames of eigenvectors parallel. This results in fundamental reimagining of the space of symmetric…
