A graph is said to be a bi-Cayley graph over a group H if it admits H as a group of automorphisms acting semiregularly on its vertices with two orbits. A non-abelian group is called an inner-abelian group if all of its proper subgroups are…

We give a complete classification of left invariant para-K\"ahler structures on four-dimensional simply connected Lie groups up to an automorphism. As an application we discuss some curvatures properties of the canonical connection…

This is an expository paper. It is well known that a linear transformation can be defined to have any desired action on a basis. From this fact, one can show that every group homomorphism from Z^k to R^d extends to a homomorphism from R^k…

If the group of a 2-knot group $K$ has an abelian normal subgroup of rank $\geq1$ which is not finitely generated then either $K$ has no minimal Seifert hypersurface or $K$ is topologically equivalent to Example 10 of Ralph Fox's``{\it A…

This article studies left-invariant Hermitian structures on Lie groups with two-dimensional commutator subgroups. We provide an explicit classification for two specific types of such structures, which we designate as Type I and Type II.…

Following Riley's work, for each 2-bridge link $K(r)$ of slope $r\in\QQ$ and an integer or a half-integer $n$ greater than 1, we introduce the {\it Heckoid orbifold $\orbs(r;n)$} and the {\it Heckoid group $\Hecke(r;n)=\pi_1(\orbs(r;n))$ of…

We prove that hyperbolic 2-bridge knots are determined amongst all compact 3-manifolds by the profinite completions of their knot groups.

In the paper, we study special configurations of lines and points in the complex projective plane, so called k-nets. We describe the role of these configurations in studies of cohomology on arrangement complements. Our most general result…

Based on the analogies between knot theory and number theory, we study a deformation theory for SL_2-representations of knot groups, following after Mazur's deformation theory of Galois representations. Firstly, by employing the…

We introduce the notion of a hamiltonian 2-form on a Kaehler manifold and obtain a complete local classification. This notion appears to play a pivotal role in several aspects of Kaehler geometry. In particular, on any Kaehler manifold with…

We give a variation of McShane's identity, which describes the cusp shape of a hyperbolic 2-bridge link in terms of the complex translation lengths of simple loops on the bridge sphere. We also explicitly determine the set of end invariants…

In the presence of a nonzero B-field, the symmetries of the $\mathrm E_8\times \mathrm E_8$ heterotic string form a 2-group, or a categorified group, as do the symmetries of the CHL string. We express the bordism groups of the corresponding…

In this paper, we demonstrate that the complete hyperbolic structure of various two-bridge knots and links cannot be deformed to an inequivalent strictly convex projective structure. We also prove a complementary result showing that under…

We give a full proof to Agol's announcement on the classification of non-free Kleinian groups generated by two parabolic transformations.

We give an elementary construction of polyhedra whose links are connected bipartite graphs, which are not necessarily isomorphic pairwise. We show, that the fundamental groups of some of our polyhedra contain surface groups. In particular,…

For any odd $k$, a connection is established between the dihedral and supersymmetric extensions of the Tremblay-Turbiner-Winternitz Hamiltonians $H_k$ on a plane. For this purpose, the elements of the dihedral group $D_{2k}$ are realized in…

In this paper we characterize all of Cayley graphs on dihedral groups with metric dimension two.

In this paper, we extend the symplectic quandle method, previously employed in our study of parabolic representations of knot groups, to investigate the general $SL(2,\mathbb{C})$-representations of 2-bridge ``kmot" groups. We introduce a…

We give an $O(p^{2})$ time algorithm to compute the generalized Heegaard Floer complexes $A_{s_{1},s_{2}}^{-}(\overrightarrow{L})$'s for a two-bridge link $\overrightarrow{L}=b(p,q)$ by using nice diagrams. Using the link surgery formula of…

For an oriented surface link $S$, we can take a satellite construction called a 2-dimensional braid over $S$, which is a surface link in the form of a covering over $S$. We demonstrate that 2-dimensional braids over surface links are useful…
