We study smooth, proper embeddings of noncompact surfaces in 4-manifolds, focusing on exotic planes and annuli, i.e., embeddings pairwise homeomorphic to the standard embeddings of R^2 and R^2-int D^2 in R^4. We encounter two uncountable…
We produce examples of pairwise non-diffeomorphic closed irreducible 4-manifolds with non-trivial free abelian fundamental group of rank less than three and small Euler characteristic. These exotic smooth structures become standard after…
Since the first work on exotic smoothness in physics, it was folklore to assume a direct influence of exotic smoothness to quantum gravity. In the second paper, we calculate the "smoothness structure" part of the path integral in quantum…
The classical Poincar{\'e} conjecture that every homotopy 3-sphere is diffeomorphic to the 3-sphere is confirmed by Perelman in arXiv papers solving Thurston's program on geometrizations of 3-manifolds. A new confirmation of this conjecture…
Partial differential equations with discrete (concentrated) state-dependent delays are studied. The existence and uniqueness of solutions with initial data from a wider linear space is proven first and then a subset of the space of…
In this paper we show that between PDE's and crystallographic groups there is an unforeseen relation. In fact we prove that integral bordism groups of PDE's can be considered extensions of crystallographic subgroups. In this respect we can…
Our recent results on {\em extended crystal PDE's} are generalized to PDE's in the category $\mathfrak{Q}_S$ of quantum supermanifolds. Then obstructions to the existence of global quantum smooth solutions for such equations are obtained,…
A four dimensional non-trivial extension of the Poincar\'e algebra different from supersymmetry is explicitly studied. Representation theory is investigated and an invariant Lagrangian is exhibited. Some discussion on the Noether theorem is…
The important unsolved problem in theory of integrable systems is to find conditions guaranteeing existence of a Lax representation for a given PDE. The use of the exotic cohomology of the symmetry algebras opens a way to formulate such…
This paper is devoted to the study of rigidity properties for special solutions of nonlinear elliptic partial differential equations on smooth, boundaryless Riemannian manifolds. As far as stable solutions are concerned, we derive a new…
Consider cotangent bundles of exotic spheres, with their canonical symplectic structure. They admit automorphisms which preserve the part at infinity of one fibre, and which are analogous to the square of a Dehn twist. Pursuing that…
Inspired by a recent result of Levine-Lidman-Piccirillo, we construct infinitely many exotic smooth structures on some closed four-manifolds with definite intersection form and fundamental group isomorphic to $\Z /2\Z$. Similar…
Since the first work on exotic smoothness in physics, it was folklore to assume a direct influence of exotic smoothness to quantum gravity. Thus, the negative result of Duston (arXiv:0911.4068) was a surprise. A closer look into the…
There are many four vertex type theorems appearing in the literature, coming in both smooth and discrete flavors. The most familiar of these is the classical theorem in differential geometry, which states that the curvature function of a…
We use a variation of a classical construction of A. Hatcher to construct virtually all stable exotic smooth structures on compact smooth manifold bundles whose fibers have sufficiently large odd dimension (at least twice the base dimension…
A geometric version of the Poincar\'e Lemma is established for the topological vector space of differential chains. In particular, every differential k-cycle with compact support in a contractible open subset U of a smooth n-manifold M is…
When two smooth manifold bundles over the same base are fiberwise tangentially homeomorphic, the difference is measured by a homology class in the total space of the bundle. We call this the relative smooth structure class. Rationally and…
One of the emerging problems in algebraic geometry is to characterize the affine $n$-space $\mathbb{A}^n$ among smooth affine schemes up to $\mathbb{A}^1$-contractibility. Recent efforts show that this characterization holds in dimensions…
We show that no exotic $\mathbb{R}^4$ admits a complete Riemannian metric with uniformly positive isotropic curvature and with bounded geometry. This is essentially a corollary of the main result in [Hu1], and was stated in [Hu2] without…
We present a systematic methodology to determine and locate analytically isolated periodic points of discrete and continuous dynamical systems with algebraic nature. We apply this method to a wide range of examples, including a…
