We give a short proof of the (known) result that there are no Kaehler structures on exotic tori. This yields a negative solution to a problem posed by Benson and Gordon. W discuss the symplectic version of the problem and analyze results…
We study exotic Lagrangian tori in dimension four. In certain Stein domains $B_{dpq}$ (which naturally appear in almost toric fibrations) we find $d+1$ families of monotone Lagrangian tori which are mutually distinct, up to…
We characterize and describe the extensions of expansive and Anosov homeomorphisms on compact spaces. As an application we obtain a stability result for extensions of Anosov systems, and show a construction that embeds any expansive system…
We study the moduli space of $J$-holomorphic subvarieties in a $4$-dimensional symplectic manifold. For an arbitrary tamed almost complex structure, we show that the moduli space of a sphere class is formed by a family of linear system…
Let $X$ be a smooth Fano fourfold admitting a conic bundle structure. We show that $X$ is toric if and only if $X$ admits an amplified endomorphism; in this case, $X$ is a rational variety.
We construct an infinite family of mutually non-diffeomorphic irreducible smooth structures on the topological 4-manifold $S^2 \times S^2$.
We prove necessary and sufficient conditions for a smooth surface in a 4-manifold X to be pseudoholomorphic with respect to some almost complex structure on X. This provides a systematic approach to the construction of pseudoholomorphic…
It is shown that classical spaces with geometries emerge on boundaries of randomly connected tensor networks with appropriately chosen tensors in the thermodynamic limit. With variation of the tensors, the dimensions of the spaces can be…
In this paper we investigate fixed-point numbers of endomorphisms on complex tori. Specifically, motivated by the asymptotic perspective that has turned out in recent years to be so fruitful in Algebraic Geometry, we study how the number of…
We show that polarized endomorphisms of rationally connected threefolds with at worst terminal singularities are equivariantly built up from those on Q-Fano threefolds, Gorenstein log del Pezzo surfaces and P^1. Similar results are obtained…
In this article we consider several forms of expansivity. We introduce two new definitions related with topological dimension. We study the topology of local stable sets under cw-expansive surface homeomorphisms and expansive homeomorphisms…
We characterize maps between $n$-dimensional N\"obeling manifolds that can be approximated by homeomorphisms.
For a compact space X we consider extending endomorphisms of the algebra C(X) to be endomorphisms of Arens-Hoffman and Cole extensions of C(X). Given a non-linear, monic polynomial p in C(X)[t], with C(X)[t]/pC(X)[t] semi-simple, we show…
We use surgery along 2-tori embedded in a union of two copies of a product of punctured 2-tori to produce a new collection of homotopy 4-spheres (4-manifolds homotopy equivalent to $S^4$ and hence homeomorphic to $S^4$ but possibly not…
In the paper, we construct compact embedded $\lambda$-hypersurfaces which are diffeomorphic to a sphere and are not isometric to a standard sphere. Hence, one can not expect to have Alexandrov type theorem for $\lambda$-hypersurfaces.
In this article we characterize monotone extensions of cw-expansive homeomorphisms of compact metric spaces. We study the topology of its quotient space in the case of a compact surface. These results are applied to prove that there are…
The shape invariant of a symplectic manifold encodes the possible area classes of embedded Lagrangian tori. Potentially this is a powerful invariant, but for most manifolds the shape is unknown. We compute the shape for 4 dimensional…
We construct an open set of endomorphisms of an arbitrary two-dimensional manifold which have attractors and non-wandering sets with non-invariant interior. This is a notable contrast to the properties of diffeomorphisms, where the interior…
We provide an approach to study exotic phenomena in relatively small 4-manifolds that captures many different exotic behaviors under one umbrella. These phenomena include exotic smooth structures on 4-manifolds with $b_2=1$, examples of…
The mapping torus of an endomorphism \Phi of a group G is the HNN-extension G*_G with bonding maps the identity and \Phi. We show that a mapping torus of an injective free group endomorphism has the property that its finitely generated…
