In this paper we study the groups of contactomorphisms of a closed contact manifold from a topological viewpoint. First we construct examples of contact forms on spheres whose Reeb flow has a dense orbit. Then we show that the unitary group…
We prove that the number of 3-dimensional simplicial complexes having the spherical topology grows exponentially as a function of a volume. It is suggested that the 3d simplicial quantum gravity has qualitatively the same phase structure as…
The weak geometric P=W conjecture of L. Katzarkov, A. Noll, P. Pandit, and C. Simpson asserts that for any smooth Betti moduli space $\mathcal{M}_B$ of complex dimension $d$ over a punctured Riemann surface, the dual boundary complex…
In this paper we state the homological domination principle for random multi-parameter simplicial complexes, claiming that the Betti number in one specific dimension (which is explicitly determined by the probability multi-parameter)…
By a classical result of Weyl, for any increasing sequence $(n_k)_{k \geq 1}$ of integers the sequence of fractional parts $(\{n_k x\})_{k \geq 1}$ is uniformly distributed modulo 1 for almost all $x \in [0,1]$. Except for a few special…
With a view toward studying the homotopy type of spaces of Boolean formulae, we introduce a simplicial complex, called the theta complex, associated to any hypergraph, which is the Alexander dual of the more well-known independence complex.…
We show that the common basis complex of a free group of rank $n$ has the homotopy type of a wedge of spheres of dimension $2n-3$. This establishes an $\mathrm{Aut}(F_n)$-analogue of the connectivity conjecture that Rognes originally stated…
The matching complex of a graph $G$ is a simplicial complex whose simplices are matchings in $G$. In the last few years the matching complexes of grid graphs have gained much attention among the topological combinatorists. In 2017, Braun…
We consider the topology of simplicial complexes with vertices the points of a random point process and faces determined by distance relationships between the vertices. In particular, we study the Betti numbers of these complexes as the…
We prove that the complex of proper non-trivial non-degenerate subspaces of a finite-dimensional vector space endowed with a non-degenerate sesquilinear form is homotopy equivalent to a wedge of spheres. Additionally, we show that the same…
We perform a heat kernel asymptotics analysis of the nonperturbative superpotential obtained from wrapping of an M2-brane around a supersymmetric noncompact three-fold embedded in a (noncompact) G_2-manifold as obtained in [1], the…
We show that compact, $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with $\frac{n+2}{2}$-nonnegative curvature operators of the second kind are either rational homology spheres or flat. More generally, we obtain vanishing of the $p$-th Betti number…
Let p be an odd prime and let P be a p-group. We examine the order complex of the poset of elementary abelian subgroups of P having order at least p^2. S. Bouc and J. Th\'evenaz showed that this complex has the homotopy type of a wedge of…
We announce new results concerning the asymptotic behavior of the Betti numbers of higher rank locally symmetric spaces as their volumes tend to infinity. Our main theorem is a uniform version of the L\"uck Approximation Theorem…
The Euler characteristic of a cell complex is often thought of as the alternating sum of the number of cells of each dimension. When the complex is infinite, the sum diverges. Nevertheless, it can sometimes be evaluated; in particular, this…
Let (W,S) be a Coxeter system. We introduce the boolean complex of involutions of W which is an analogue of the boolean complex of W studied by Ragnarsson and Tenner. By applying discrete Morse theory, we determine the homotopy type of the…
The Dehn property for a complex is that every non-trivial disk diagram has spurs or shells. It implies a linear isoperimetric inequality. It has been conjectured that the same is true of a more general property which also allows cutcells.…
We construct and analyze an explicit basis for the homology of the boolean complex of a Coxeter system. This gives combinatorial meaning to the spheres in the wedge sum describing the homotopy type of the complex. We assign a set of…
We show that the nerve complex of n arcs in the circle is homotopy equivalent to either a point, an odd-dimensional sphere, or a wedge sum of spheres of the same even dimension. Moreover this homotopy type can be computed in time O(n log…
We construct a dga to computing the cohomology of ordered configuration spaces on an algebraic variety with vanishing Euler characteristic. It follows that the $k$-th Betti number of $Conf(C,n)$ ($C$ is an elliptic curve) grows as a…
