We give some properties of cosymplectic Lie algebras, we show, in particular, that they support a left symmetric product. We also give some constructions of cosymplectic Lie algebras, as well as a classification in three and…
We propose some problems on the classification of toric manifolds from the viewpoint of topology and survey related results.
A book, concerning the classical restricted three body problem, and the approach to this old conundrum coming from the modern methods of symplectic and contact geometry. It is split into Part I (theoretical aspects), and Part II (practical…
These revised lecture notes are an expository account of part of the proof of Thurston's Ending Lamination Conjecture for Kleinian surface groups, which states that such groups are uniquely determined by invariants that describe the…
We study topological properties of automorphisms of 4-dimensional torus generated by integer symplectic matrices. The main classifying element is the structure of the topology of a foliation generated by unstable leaves of the automorphism.…
We construct a simple finite-dimensional topological quantum field theory for compact 3-manifolds with triangulated boundary.
We show that the pre-order defined on the category of contact manifolds by arbitrary symplectic cobordisms is considerably less rigid than its counterparts for exact or Stein cobordisms: in particular, we exhibit large new classes of…
Symmetric products of curves are important spaces for both geometers and topologists, and increasingly useful objects for physicists. We summarize in this note some of their basic homotopy theoretic properties and derive a handful of known…
The notions of holomorphic symplectic structures and hypercomplex structures on Courant algebroids are introduced and then proved to be equivalent. These generalize hypercomplex triples and holomorphic symplectic 2-forms on manifolds…
We study holomorphic symplectic manifolds which are fibred by abelian varieties. This structure is a higher dimensional analogue of an elliptic fibration on a K3 surface. We investigate when a holomorphic symplectic manifold is fibred in…
We prove a structure theorem for closed topological manifolds of cohomogeneity one; this result corrects an oversight in the literature. We complete the equivariant classification of closed, simply connected cohomogeneity one topological…
A 4-manifold is constructed with some curious metric properties; or maybe it is many 4-manifolds masquerading as one, which would explain why it looks curious. Anyway, knots in the 3-sphere with complete finite volume hyperbolic metrics on…
We present mathematical details of several cosmological models, whereby the topological and the geometrical background will be emphasized.
Among other things, we prove the following two topologcal statements about closed hyperbolic 3-manifolds. First, every rational second homology class of a closed hyperbolic 3-manifold has a positve integral multiple represented by an…
The class of the hypercomplex pseudo-Hermitian manifolds is considered. The flatness of the considered manifolds with the 3 parallel complex structures is proved. Conformal transformations of the metrics are introduced. The conformal…
We give necessary and sufficient topological conditions for the existence of an irreducible ${\rm SO}(3)$-structure on a $5$-manifold. Using these conditions we provide some new examples of $5$-manifolds with an irreducible ${\rm…
We exhibit tight contact structures on 3-manifolds that do not admit any symplectic fillings.
In this note, we survey our recent work concerning cohomologies of harmonic bundles on quasi-compact Kaehler manifolds.
In this paper we consider some properties of the three-dimensional homogeneous SO(2)-isotropic Riemannian manifolds. In particular, we determine the geodesics, the totally geodesic surfaces, the totally umbilical surfaces and the geodesics…
A cosymplectic groupoid is a Lie groupoid with a multiplicative cosymplectic structure. We provide several structural results for cosymplectic groupoids and we discuss the relationship between cosymplectic groupoids, Poisson groupoids of…
