We give a new proof of the classification of normal singular surface germs admitting non-invertible holomorphic self-maps and due to J. Wahl. We then draw an analogy between the birational classification of singular holomorphic foliations…

In this article we provide a classification and description of compact Riemann surfaces admitting a triangular action of a group of order $2p^2,$ where $p$ is an odd prime number. We obtain that all such Riemann surfaces are isomorphic to…

We prove that, except in certain low-complexity cases, the automorphism group of the graph of pants decompositions of a nonorientable surface is isomorphic to the mapping class group of that surface.

We initiate the investigation of representation theory of non-orientable surfaces. As a first step towards finding an additive categorification of Dupont and Palesi's quasi-cluster algebras associated marked non-orientable surfaces, we…

We prove that if a prime 3-manifold M is not finitely covered by the 3-sphere or a product manifold, then M is virtually chiral, i.e. it has a finite cover that does not admit an orientation reversing self-homeomorphism. In general if a…

It is shown that a formal mapping between two real-analytic hypersurfaces in complex space is convergent provided that neither hypersurface contains a nontrivial holomorphic variety. For higher codimensional generic submanifolds,…

Given a space X we study the topology of the space of embeddings of X into $\mathbb{R}^d$ through the combinatorics of triangulations of X. We give a simple combinatorial formula for upper bounds for the largest dimension of a sphere that…

The chiral anomaly can be considered as an object defined either on the space of gauge potentials or on the orbit space. We will discuss the relation between the two descriptions. We will also relate to the cohomology of the group of gauge…

We complete the investigation of N=(2,2) supersymmetric nonlinear sigma-models in the presence of a boundary. We study the full bihermitian geometry parameterized by chiral, twisted chiral and semi-chiral superfields and identify the…

We construct the $Z_{N}$ symmetry extended fusion ring of bulk and chiral theories and the corresponding modular partition functions with nonanomalous subgroup $Z_{n}(\subset Z_{N})$. The chiral fusion ring provides fundamental data for…

We study the chiral flat space higher-spin algebra, which is the global symmetry algebra of the chiral higher-spin theory in the 4d Minkowski space. We find that it can be constructed as the universal enveloping algebra of a certain chiral…

We prove that there exists a countable family of continuous real functions whose graphs together with their inverses cover an uncountable square, i.e. a set of the form $X\times X$, where $X$ is an uncountable subset of the real line. This…

A detailed proof is given of a theorem describing the centraliser of a transitive permutation group, with applications to automorphism groups of objects in various categories of maps, hypermaps, dessins, polytopes and covering spaces, where…

Rotary maps (orientably regular maps) are highly symmetric graph embeddings on orientable surfaces. This paper classifies all rotary maps whose underlying graphs are Praeger-Xu graphs, denoted $\operatorname{C}(p,r,s)$, for any odd prime…

Some key features of continuum chiral fermions are shown to be satisfied by the overlap.

Generalized Konishi anomaly relations in the chiral ring of N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories with unitary gauge group and chiral matter field in two-index tensor representations are derived. Contrary to previous investigations of related…

The existence of closed hypersurfaces of prescribed curvature in semi-riemannian manifolds is proved provided there are barriers.

We investigate a question of Cooper adjacent to the Virtual Haken Conjecture. Assuming certain conjectures in number theory, we show that there exist hyperbolic rational homology 3-spheres with arbitrarily large injectivity radius. These…

Using equivariant obstruction theory we construct equivariant maps from certain classifying spaces to representation spheres for cyclic groups, product of elementary Abelian groups and dihedral groups. Restricting them to finite skeleta…

We show that a complex normal surface singularity admitting a contracting automorphism is necessarily quasihomogeneous. We also describe the geometry of a compact complex surface arising as the orbit space of such a contracting…
