The space $\mathcal{Z}$ of leftinvariant orthogonal almost complex structures, keeping the orientation, on 6-dimensional Lie groups is researched. To get explicit view of this space elements the isomorphism of $\mathcal{Z}$ and…

We show that hyperplane sections of strongly formal manifolds inherit strong formality. In particular, this property holds for generalized complete intersections defined by positive line bundles with trivial first de Rham cohomology group.…

By using superisolated surface singularities whose link is a rational homology sphere we give counterexamples to some of the most important conjetures concernig invariants of normal surface singularities.

Motivated by the $L$-space conjecture, we prove left-orderability of certain Dehn fillings on integral homology solid tori with techniques first appearing in the work of Culler-Dunfield. First, we use the author's previous results to…

Given a Heegaard splitting of a three-manifold Y, we consider the SL(2,C) character variety of the Heegaard surface, and two complex Lagrangians associated to the handlebodies. We focus on the smooth open subset corresponding to irreducible…

We show that if the fundamental group of the complement of a rationally homologically fibered knot in a rational homology 3-sphere is bi-orderable, then its Alexander polynomial has at least one positive real root. Our argument can be…

We prove that (1,1) non-L-space knots in $S^3$ and lens spaces are persistently foliar. This provides positive evidence for the L-space conjecture.

If a 3--manifold $Y$ contains a non-separating sphere, then some twisted Heegaard Floer homology of $Y$ is zero. This simple fact allows us to prove several results about Dehn surgery on knots in such manifolds. Similar results have been…

Lada introduced strong homotopy algebras to describe the structures on a deformation retract of an algebra in topological spaces. However, there is no satisfactory general definition of a morphism of strong homotopy (s.h.) algebras. Given a…

Let L be a link in an integral homology three-sphere. We give a description of the Heegaard Floer homology of integral surgeries on L in terms of some data associated to L, which we call a complete system of hyperboxes for L. Roughly, a…

For some families of two-bridge knots, including double-twist knots with genus at least four, we determine precisely the set of integers $n>1$ such that the fundamental group of the $n$-fold cyclic branched cover of the 3-sphere along these…

Associated to every complete affine 3-manifold M with nonsolvable fundamental group is a noncompact hyperbolic surface S. We classify such complete affine structures when Sigma is homeomorphic to a three-holed sphere. In particular, for…

This paper is about topological rigidity of diagonal group actions on the homogeneous $\SL_4\big(\F(\!(t^{-1})\!)\big)/\SL_4(\F[t])$ where $\F$ is a finite field of characteristic $3$. We show that there is a non-closed relatively compact…

We first introduce and investigate a new class of $T_0$ spaces -- strong R-spaces, which are stronger than both R-spaces and strongly well-filtered spaces. It is proved that any sup-complete poset equipped with the upper topology is a…

For a closed locally symmetric space M=\Gamma\G/K and a representation of G we consider the push-forward of the fundamental class in the homology of the linear group and a related invariant in algebraic K-theory. We discuss the…

There are various results that frame left-orderability of a group as a geometric property. Indeed, the fundamental group of a 3-manifold is left-orderable whenever the first Betti number is positive; in the case that the first Betti number…

In this paper, we introduce the concept of $d^{\ast}$-spaces. We find that strong $d$-spaces are $d^{\ast}$-spaces, but the converse does not hold. We give a characterization for a topological space to be a $d^{\ast}$-space. We prove that…

On the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}$ in a real Hilbert space $\mathbf{H}$, we derive a binary operation $\odot$ such that $(\mathbb{S},\odot)$ is a power-associative Kikkawa left loop with two-sided identity $\mathbf{e}_0$, i.e., it has the left…

We study the question of when cyclic branched covers of knots admit taut foliations, have left-orderable fundamental group, and are not L-spaces.

We introduce strong congruence spaces, which are topological spaces that provide a useful concept of dimension for monoid schemes. We study their properties and show that, given a toric monoid scheme over an algebraically closed basis, its…
