By refining the volume estimate of Heintze and Karcher \cite{HK}, we obtain a sharp pinching estimate for the genus of a surface in $\mathbb S^{3}$, which involves an integral of the norm of its traceless second fundamental form. More…

A triangulation of a surface is k-irreducible if every non-contractible curve has length at least k and any edge contraction breaks this property. Equivalently, every edge belongs to a non-contractible curve of length k and there are no…

We find all exceptional spin groups attached to the vertices of any exceptional spin graph on any hyperbolic Riemann surface S of genus g>1. In particular, we show that when the order r of a graph is r>2 (i.e.the genus of S must be g>3)…

Let $S=(C \times D)/G$ be a surface isogenous to a higher product of unmixed type with $p_g=q=0$, $G=(\mathbb{Z}/2)^3$ or $(\mathbb{Z}/2)^4$. We construct exceptional sequences of maximal length and quasiphantom categories on $S$.

For any fixed surface Sigma of genus g, we give an algorithm to decide whether a graph G of girth at least five embedded in Sigma is colorable from an assignment of lists of size three in time O(|V(G)|). Furthermore, we can allow a subgraph…

Suppose a finite group $G$ acts on a manifold $M$. By a theorem of Mostow, also Palais, there is a $G$-equivariant embedding of $M$ into the $m$-dimensional Euclidean space $\RR^{m}$ for some $m$. We are interested in some explicit bounds…

Given a function $g=g(n)$ we let ${\mathcal E}^g$ be the class of all graphs $G$ such that if $G$ has order $n$ (that is, has $n$ vertices) then it is embeddable in some surface of Euler genus at most $g(n)$, and let ${\widetilde{\mathcal…

Let $k$ be a number field and $B$ be a central simple algebra over $k$ of dimension $p^2$ where $p$ is prime. In the case that $p=2$ we assume that $B$ is not totally definite. In this paper we study sets of pairwise nonisomorphic maximal…

Let $S$ be a closed surface of genus at least $2$. For each maximal representation $\rho: \pi_1(S)\rightarrow\mathsf{Sp}(4,\mathbb{R})$ in one of the $2g-3$ exceptional connected components, we prove there is a unique conformal structure on…

Let $F_g$ denote the closed orientable surface of genus $g$. What is the least order finite group, $G_g$, for which there is a homomorphism $\psi$ from $\pi_1(F_g)$ to $G_g$ so that no nontrivial simple closed curve on $F_g$ represents an…

Let $\Gamma_g$ be the fundamental group of a closed connected orientable surface of genus $g\geq2$. We introduce a combinatorial structure of "core surfaces", that represent subgroups of $\Gamma_g$. These structures are (usually)…

G. H\"ohn and G. Mason classified all finite groups acting faithfully and symplectically on a hyper-K{\"a}hler fourfolds of type K3$^{[2]}$. There are 15 maximal among them, call them $\widetilde{G}_1,\ldots, \widetilde{G}_{15}$. Every…

A method is suggested for construction of quadrangulations of the closed orientable surface with given genus g and either (1) with given chromatic number or (2) with given order allowed by the genus g. In particular, N. Hartsfield and G.…

We prove that there is an algorithm which determines whether or not a given 2-polyhedron can be embedded into some integral homology 3-sphere. This is a corollary of the following main result. Let $M$ be a compact connected orientable…

We classify pairs $(X,G)$ consisting of a complex K3 surface $X$ and a finite group $G \leq Aut(X)$ such that the subgroup $G_s \lneq G$ consisting of symplectic automorphisms is among the $11$ maximal symplectic ones as classified by…

In this article, we give a general construction of spectral triples from certain Lie group actions on unital C*-algebras. If the group G is compact and the action is ergodic, we actually obtain a real and finitely summable spectral triple…

We study the volume of maximal representations from a surface group into $\mathrm{SO}_0(2,3)$. We show that it is bounded from above, uniformly in the genus of the surface. We also prove that on the Gothen components, it is bounded from…

We classify all order one invariants of immersions of a closed orientable surface F into R^3, with values in an arbitrary Abelian group G. We show that for any F and G and any regular homotopy class A of immersions of F into R^3, the group…

Let $f:\mathbb{C}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^3$ be complete Willmore immersion with $\int_{\Sigma}|A_f|^2<+\infty$. We will show that if $f$ is the limit of an embedded surface sequence, then $f$ is a plane. As an application, we prove that if…

Let $f\colon S\to B$ a complex fibred surface with fibres of genus $g\geq 2$. Let $u_f$ be its unitary rank, i.e., the rank of the maximal unitary summand of the Hodge bundle $f_*\omega_f$. We prove many new slope inequalities involving…
