In this paper, we introduce a new class of structured spaces which is locally modeled by Costello's L-infinity spaces. This provides an alternative approach to study the derived geometric structures in the algebraic, analytic, or smooth…
We construct a simple topological invariant of certain 3-manifolds, including quotients of the 3-sphere by finite groups, based on the fact that the tangent bundle of an orientable 3-manifold is trivialisable. This invariant is strong…
A stratified space is a kind of topological space together with a partition into smooth manifolds. These kinds of spaces naturally arise in the study of singular algebraic varieties, symplectic reduction, and differentiable stacks. In this…
In this paper, we construct a new series of prehomogeneous vector spaces from figures made up of triangles, called triangle arrangements. Our main theorem states that, under suitable assumptions, we are able to construct a prehomogeneous…
We describe those complete linearly ordered topological spaces $X$ which are homogeneous (=CHLOTS). That is, $X$ is order isomorphic with any nonempty open interval in $X$. Using countable tail-like ordinals as indices, we build towers of…
It is shown that moduli spaces of complete families of compact complex hypersurfaces in complex manifolds often come equipped canonically with projective structures satisfying some natural integrability conditions.
We compute the cohomology of the right generalised projective Stiefel manifolds and use it to find bounds on the rank of the complementary bundle for certain vector bundles. Further the cohomology computations are also used to find bounds…
We extend T. Y. Thomas's approach to the projective structures, over the complex analytic category, by involving the $\rho$-connections. This way, a better control of the projective flatness is obtained and, consequently, we have, for…
For all classical groups (and for their analogs in infinite dimension or over general base fields or rings) we construct certain contractions, called "homotopes". The construction is geometric, using as ingredient involutions of associative…

Let $X$ be a complex manifold containing a hypersurface $D$ and let $D^s$ denote the singular locus. We study the problem of extending a flat connection with logarithmic poles along $D$ from the complement $X \setminus D^s$ to all of $X$.…
We identify spaces of half-translation surfaces, equivalently complex curves with quadratic differential, with spaces of stability structures on Fukaya-type categories of punctured surfaces. This is achieved by new methods involving the…
Let $V$ be a left vector space over a division ring and let ${\mathcal P}(V)$ be the associated projective space. We describe all finite subsets $X\subset V$ such that every permutation on $X$ can be extended to a linear automorphism of $V$…
We show that there are uncountably many countable lattices. We give a discussion of which such lattices can be modular or distributive. The method applies to show that certain other classes of structures also have uncountably many…
We construct highly singular projective curves and surfaces defined by invariants of primitive complex reflection groups.
We consider the problem of constructing matrices of linear forms of constant rank by focusing on the associated vector bundles on projective spaces. Important examples are given by the classical Steiner bundles, as well as some special…
We define a moduli space of translation structures on the open topological disk with a basepoint and endow it with a locally-compact metrizable topology. We call this the immersive topology, because it is defined using the concept of…
We study iterations of two classical constructions, the evolutes and involutes of plane curves, and we describe the limiting behavior of both constructions on a class of smooth curves with singularities given by their support functions.…
We study flat vector bundles over complex parallelizable manifolds.
After 1-point compactification, the collection of all unordered configuration spaces of a manifold admits a commutative multiplication by superposition of configurations. We explain a simple (derived) presentation for this commutative…
