We present a pair of smooth fiber bundles over the circle with a common $4$-dimensional fiber with the following properties: (1) their total spaces are diffeomorphic to each other; (2) they are isomorphic to each other as topological fiber…
Let $X$, $Y$ be Fano threefolds of Picard number one and such that the ample generators of Picard groups are very ample. Let $X$ be of index one and $Y$ be of index two. It is shown that the only morphisms from $X$ to $Y$ are double…
Twisted links are a generalization of classical links and correspond to stably equivalence classes of links in thickened surfaces. In this paper we introduce twisted intersection colorings of a diagram and construct two invariants of a…
In this paper it is proven that if the group of covering translations of the covering space of a compact, connected, $P^2$-irreducible 3-manifold corresponding to a non-trivial, finitely-generated subgroup of its fundamental group is…
Manifolds all of whose geodesics are closed have been studied a lot, but there are only few examples known. The situation is different if one allows in addition for orbifold singularities. We show, nevertheless, that the abundance of new…
In this paper, we study $(2+1)$-dimensional quantum anomalous Hall states, i.e. band insulators with quantized Hall conductance, using the exact holographic mapping. The exact holographic mapping is an approach to holographic duality which…
We classify combinations of isolated singularities that can occur on complex cubic threefolds generalizing analogous results for cubic surfaces due to Schl\"{a}fli and Bruce--Wall. In addition, we provide concise combinatorial description…
The existence of essential closed surfaces surfaces is proven for finite coverings of 3-manifolds that are triangulated by finitely many topological ideal tetrahedra and admit a regular, negatively curved, ideal structure.
In this article, we give completely new examples of embedded complex manifolds the germ of neighborhood of which is holomorphically equivalent to a germ of neighborhood of the zero section in its normal bundle. The first set of examples is…
We investigate the packing and covering densities of linear and nonlinear binary codes, and establish a number of duality relationships between the packing and covering problems. Specifically, we prove that if almost all codes (in the class…
The goal of this paper is to give a method to compute the space of infinitesimal deformations of a double cover of a smooth algebraic variety. The space of all infinitesimal deformations has a representation as a direct sum of two…
This is the sequel to our first paper concerning the balanced embedding of a non-compact complex manifold into an infinite-dimensional projective space. We prove the uniqueness of such an embedding. The proof relies on fine estimates of the…
We derive a holomorphic anomaly equation for the Vafa-Witten partition function for twisted four-dimensional $\mathcal{N} =4$ super Yang-Mills theory on $\mathbb{CP}^{2}$ for the gauge group $SO(3)$ from the path integral of the effective…
We study the sensitivity of LEP II and NLC, via two photon collisions, to the effects of anomalous $\tau \overline{\tau} \gamma$ couplings. We also discuss some CP-odd observables that can be useful to disentangle the contributions from the…
The partition function of an N=2 gauge theory in the Omega-background satisfies, for generic value of the parameter beta=-eps_1/eps_2, the, in general extended, but otherwise beta-independent, holomorphic anomaly equation of special…
We show that there exist infinitely many simply connected compact Stein 4-manifolds with b_2=2 such that they are all homeomorhic but mutually non-diffeomorphic, and they are Stein fillings of the same contact 3-manifold on their…
A notion of dual curve for pseudoholomorphic curves in 4--manifolds turns out to be possible only if the notion of almost complex structure structure is slightly generalized. The resulting structure is as easy (perhaps easier) to work with,…
We prove that a compact smooth 4-manifold admits generalized complex structures of odd type if and only if it has a transversely holomorphic 2-foliation. Consequently, there exist generalized complex structures of odd type on a circle…
The epireflective subcategories of ${\bold{Top}}$, that are closed under epimorphic (or bimorphic) images, are $\{X \mid |X| \le 1 \} $, $\{X \mid X$ is indiscrete$\} $ and ${\bold{Top}}$. The epireflective subcategories of…
Complex supermanifold structures being deformations of the exterior algebra of a holomorphic vector bundle, have been parametrized by orbits of a group on non-abelian cohomology by P. Green. For the case of odd dimension $4$ and $5$ an…
