Some properties of non-orientable 3-manifolds are shown. The semi-group of cobordism of immersions of surfaces in such manifolds is computed and proven actually to be a group. Explicit invariants are provided.
We shall prove that the threefold studied in the paper "Remarks on an Example of K. Ueno" by F. Campana is unirational. This gives an affirmative answer to a question posed in the paper above and also in the book by K. Ueno, "Classification…
This expository paper explores the interaction of group ordering with topological questions, especially in dimensions 2 and 3. Among the topics considered are surfaces, braid groups, 3-manifolds and their structures such as foliations and…
We complete the classification of rank two affine manifolds in the moduli space of translation surfaces in genus three. Combined with a recent result of Mirzakhani and Wright, this completes the classification of higher rank affine…
These notes accompany some lectures given at the autumn school "Tresses in Pau" in October 2009. The abelian Reidemeister torsion for 3-manifolds, and its refinements by Turaev, are introduced. Some applications, including relations between…
Edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent quadrilaterals are completely classified in a series of three papers. This last one classifies the case of $a^3b$-quadrilaterals with some irrational angle: there are a sequence of…
We classify uniruled compact K\"ahler threefolds whose groups of bimeromorphic selfmaps do not have Jordan property.
We prove the existence of wild automorphisms on an affine quadric threefold. The method we use is an adaptation of the one used by Shestakov and Umirbaev to prove the existence of wild automorphisms on the affine three dimensional space.
In this survey we discuss how geometric methods can be used to study topological properties of 3-manifolds such as their Heegaard genus or the rank of their fundamental group. On the other hand, we also discuss briefly some results relating…
In this work we give the classification of real ternary cubic forms with respect to rank and border rank up to SL(3)-action and we examine the differences with the complex case.
We provide a complete classification of three-dimensional associative algebras over the real and complex number fields based on a complete elementary proof. We list up all the multiplication tables of the algebras up to isomorphism. We…
We extend Heawood's theorem on the colourability of plane triangulations to triangulations of 3-space. We prove that a triangulation of 3-space can be edge coloured with three colours if and only if all edges have even degree.
The group SU(3) is parameterized in terms of generalized ``Euler angles''. The differential operators of SU(3) corresponding to the Lie Algebra elements are obtained, the invariant forms are found, the group invariant volume element is…
This is a survey paper on algorithms for solving problems in 3-dimensional topology. In particular, it discusses Haken's approach to the recognition of the unknot, and recent variations.
We give a topological bound on the number of minimal models of a class of three dimensional log smooth pairs of general type.
In the paper there are described new examples of conformally flat three dimensional almost cosymplectic manifolds. All these manifolds form a class which was completely characterized.
Determining the associated metrics we get a local classification of contact metric three manifolds.
We show that a generic real projective $n$-dimensional hypersurface of odd degree $d$, such that $4(n-2)=\binom{d+3}3$, contains "many" real 3-planes, namely, in the logarithmic scale their number has the same rate of growth, $d^3\log d$,…
We present Bianchi's proof on the classification of real (and complex) $3$-dimensional Lie algebras in a coordinate free version from a strictly representation theoretic point of view. Nearby we also compute the automorphism groups and from…
We classify Fano threefolds with only terminal singularities whose canonical class is Cartier and divisible by 2, and satisfying an additional assumption that the $G$-invariant part of the Weil divisor class group is of rank 1 with respect…
