Mirror graphs were introduced by Bre\v{s}ar et al. in 2004 as an intriguing class of graphs: vertex-transitive, isometrically embeddable into hypercubes, having a strong connection with regular maps and polytope structure. In this article…
In this paper, we define an analytical index for a continuous family of Fredholm operators parameterized by a topological space $\mathbb{X}$ into a Hilbert space $H,$ as a sequence of integers, extending naturally the usual definition of…
S.B. Rao conjectured in 1971 that graphic degree sequences are well quasi ordered by a relation defined in terms of the induced subgraph relation. In 2008, M. Chudnovsky and P. Seymour proved this long standing Rao's Conjecture by giving…
We use an index-theoretic technique of Hitchin to show that the space of complete Riemannian metrics of nonnegative sectional curvature on certain open spin manifolds has nontrivial homotopy groups in infinitely many degrees. A new…
This article deals with the structure of analytic and entire vectors for the Schr\"{o}dinger representations of the Heisenberg group. Using refined versions of Hardy's theorem and their connection with Hermite expansions we obtain very…
In this monograph, we give an account of the relationship between the algebraic structure of finitely generated and countable groups and the regularity with which they act on manifolds. We concentrate on the case of one--dimensional…
The action of the mapping class group of a surface on the collection of homotopy classes of disjointly embedded curves or arcs in the surface is discussed here as a tool for understanding Riemann's moduli space and its topological and…
In this paper, we study the space of metrics of positive scalar curvature using methods from coarse geometry. Given a closed spin manifold M with fundamental group G, Stephan Stolz introduced the positive scalar curvature exact sequence, in…
Combinatorial objects such as rooted trees that carry a recursive structure have found important applications recently in both mathematics and physics. We put such structures in an algebraic framework of operated semigroups. This framework…
For a split reductive group defined over a number field, we first introduce the notations of arithmetic torsors and arithmetic Higgs torsors. Then we construct arithmetic characteristic curves associated to arithmetic Higgs torsors, based…
In this short note we compare Mishchenko's definition of noncommutative signature for a manifold with proper $G$-action of a discrete, countable group $G$ with the (more analytical) counterpart defined by Higson and Roe in the series of…
We give general classification and structure theorems for actions of groups of homeomorphisms and diffeomorphisms on manifolds, reminiscent of classical results for actions of (locally) compact groups. This gives a negative answer to Ghys'…
The idea of a space with smooth structure is a generalization of an idea of a manifold. K. T. Chen introduced such a space as a differentiable space in his study of a loop space to employ the idea of iterated path integrals…
Many index theorems (both classical and in noncommutative geometry) can be interpreted in terms of a Lie groupoid acting properly on a manifold and leaving an elliptic family of pseudodifferential operators invariant. Alain Connes in his…

According to the Weinstein splitting theorem, any Poisson manifold is locally, near any given point, a product of a symplectic manifold with another Poisson manifold whose Poisson structure vanishes at the point. Similar splitting results…
The recent proof of the Boij-Soederberg conjectures reveals new structure about Betti diagrams of modules, giving a complete description of the cone of Betti diagrams. We begin to expand on this new structure by investigating the semigroup…
In this paper we prove Morse index theorems for a big class of constrained variational problems on graphs. Such theorems are useful in various physical and geometric applications. Our formulas compute the difference of Morse indices of two…
We consider various notions of Mayer--Vietoris squares in algebraic geometry. We use these to generalize a number of gluing and pushout results of Moret-Bailly, Ferrand--Raynaud, Joyet and Bhatt. An important intermediate step is Gabber's…
We apply the geometric analog of the analytic surgery group of Higson and Roe to the relative $\eta$-invariant. In particular, by solving a Baum-Douglas type index problem, we give a "geometric" proof of a result of Keswani regarding the…
