In this paper we prove that for each dimension $n$ there are only finitely many isomorphism classes of pairs of groups $(\Gamma,\mathrm{N})$ such that $\Gamma$ is an $n$-dimensional crystallographic group and $\mathrm{N}$ is a normal…

We characterise rigid graphs for cylindrical normed spaces $Z=X\oplus_\infty \mathbb{R}$ where $X$ is a finite dimensional real normed linear space and $Z$ is endowed with the product norm. In particular, we obtain purely combinatorial…

For any finite set $\A$ of $n$ points in $\R^2$, we define a $(3n-3)$-dimensional simple polyhedron whose face poset is isomorphic to the poset of ``non-crossing marked graphs'' with vertex set $\A$, where a marked graph is defined as a…

We prove the existence of pure braids with arbitrarily many strands which are small, i.e. they contain no closed incompressible surface in the complement which is not boundary parallel. This implies the existence of irreducible non-Haken…

Let $M^n(n\geq3)$ be an $n$-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold with harmonic curvature and positive scalar curvature. Assume that $M^n$ satisfies some integral pinching conditions. We give some rigidity theorems on compact manifolds…

In this paper, we revise some results on rigidity and vanishing properties obtained by \textit{Cuong et.al} in \cite{CDS24} on $n$-dimensional totally real minimal submanifolds $M$ immersed in complex space forms $\widetilde{M}^n(c)$, for…

The rigidity of the positive mass theorem states that the only complete asymptotically flat manifold of nonnegative scalar curvature and zero mass is Euclidean space. We prove a corresponding stability theorem for spaces that can be…

We formulate a geometric version of the Erd\H{o}s-Hajnal conjecture that applies to finite projective geometries rather than graphs, in both its usual 'induced' form and the multicoloured form. The multicoloured conjecture states, roughly,…

Consider a smooth action of $\mathbb R^n$ on a connected manifold $M$, not necessarily compact, of dimension $m$ and rank $k$. Assume that $M$ is not a cylinder. Then there exists an orbit of the action of dimension $<(m+k)/2$. As a…

We give inductive constructions of independent graphs that contain implied nonedges but do not contain any non-trivial rigid subgraphs, or \emph{nucleations}: some of the constructions and proofs apply to 3-dimensional abstract rigidity…

We show that, if $\Gamma$ is a point group of $\mathbb{R}^{k+1}$ of order two for some $k\geq 2$ and $\mathcal S$ is a $k$-pseudomanifold which has a free automorphism of order two, then either $\mathcal S$ has a $\Gamma$-symmetric…

In this short note we prove the Borel conjecture for a family of aspherical manifolds that includes higher graph manifolds.

We define a new class of orthogonal polyhedra, called orthogrids, that can be unfolded without overlap with constant refinement of the gridded surface.

In this work we give precise asymptotic expressions on the probability of the existence of fixed-size components at the threshold of connectivity for random geometric graphs.

We prove a vanishing theorem for the twisted de Rham cohomology of a compact manifold.

A simple graph is $3$-rigid if its generic bar-joint frameworks in $R^3$ are infinitesimally rigid. Necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained for the minimal $3$-rigidity of a simple graph which is obtained from the $1$-skeleton of a…

Deformation K-theory associates to each discrete group G a spectrum built from spaces of finite dimensional unitary representations of G. In all known examples, this spectrum is 2-periodic above the rational cohomological dimension of G…

We prove a stability theorem for families of holomorphically-parallelizable manifolds in the category of Hermitian manifolds.

A rigidity theory is developed for the Euclidean and non-Euclidean placements of countably infinite simple graphs in R^d with respect to the classical l^p norms, for d>1 and 1<p<\infty. Generalisations are obtained for the Laman and…

We study the large-scale geometry of 3-manifolds with nontrivial 2-dimensional bounded cohomology, with a view to proving a weak version of the geometrization conjecture for such manifolds.
