Fix a quadratic order over the ring of integers. An embedding of the quadratic order into a quaternionic order naturally gives an integral binary hermitian form over the quadratic order. We show that, in certain cases, this correspondence…

We give a direct combinatorial proof that the modular envelope of the cyclic operad Ass is the modular operad of (the homeomorphism classes of) 2D compact surfaces with boundary with marked points.

A folding of a branched cover of the 3-sphere that is branched over a knot is a continuous map of the cover into the product of the sphere with a disk that has the property that the projection onto the sphere factor induces the covering.…

A regular cover of a connected graph is called {\em cyclic} or {\em dihedral} if its transformation group is cyclic or dihedral respectively, and {\em arc-transitive} (or {\em symmetric}) if the fibre-preserving automorphism subgroup acts…

This is a latest survey article on embeddings of multibranched surfaces into 3-manifolds.

This article presents an alternate way to prove a result originally proven by Harvey, Kawamuro, and Plamenvskaya in \cite{HaKaPl}. We accomplish this by explicitly constructing an overtwisted disk in the $p$-fold cyclic branched cover of…

The functor that takes a manifold to its configuration category exhibits a type of full faithfulness in some cases.

Tropical geometry is sensitive to embeddings of algebraic varieties inside toric varieties. The purpose of this paper is to advertise tropical modifications as a tool to locally repair bad embeddings of plane curves, allowing the…

In this article we describe the $G_{comp}\times G_{comp}$-equivariant topological $K$-ring of a {\em cellular} toroidal embedding $\mathbb{X}$ of a complex connected reductive algebraic group $G$. In particular, our results extend the…

A small cover is a closed smooth manifold of dimension $n$ having a locally standard $\mathbb{Z}_2^n$-action whose orbit space is isomorphic to a simple polytope. A typical example of small covers is a real projective toric manifold (or,…

This note describes a correct way to perform the inflation procedures claimed in the papers on embedding ellipsoids, Journ. Top. 2 (2009), 1-22 and 589-623. The idea is to inflate along a collection of transversally and positively…

We consider embeddings of a finite complex in a sphere. We give a homotopy theoretic classification of such embeddings in a wide range.

We present a generalization of free fermionic topological insulators that are composed of topological subsystems of differing dimensionality. We specifically focus on topological subsystems of nonzero co-dimension are embedded within a…

We state and prove a correct version of a theorem presented in an earlier paper.

We describe three-dimensional terminal toric flips. We obtain the complete local description of three-dimensional terminal toric flips.

The new integrable systems associated to the space of elliptic branched coverings are constructed. The relationship of these systems with elliptic Schlesinger's system is described. For the standard two-fold elliptic coverings the…

We introduce a new construction of a surface link in the 4-space. We construct a surface link as a branched covering over the standard torus, which we call a torus-covering link. We show that a certain torus-covering $T^2$-link is…

It is given a topological pinching for the injectivity radius of a compact embedded surface either in the sphere or in the hyperbolic space

To study embeddings of tangles in knots, we use quandle cocycle invariants. Computations are carried out for the tables of knots and tangles, to investigate which tangles may or may not embed in knots in the tables.

We study tori which are cyclic covers of the standard torus, that is, the deck transformation group of the covering map is cyclic. These covering tori can be parametrized in a natural way and we show that being cyclic is equivalent to…
