Using the theory of perverse sheaves of vanishing cycles, we define a homological invariant of knots in three-manifolds, similar to the three-manifold invariant constructed by Abouzaid and the second author. We use spaces of SL(2,C) flat…

Let $\phi$ be a quadratic, monic polynomial with coefficients in $\mathcal O_{F,D}[t]$, where $\mathcal O_{F,D}$ is a localization of a number ring $\mathcal O_F$. In this paper, we first prove that if $\phi$ is non-square and…

We show that (equivariant) K-theoretic 3-point Gromov-Witten invariants of genus zero on a Grassmann variety are equal to triple intersections computed in the ordinary (equivariant) K-theory of a two-step flag manifold, thus generalizing an…

The Kauffman bracket skein module $K(M)$ of a 3-manifold $M$ is defined over formal power series in the variable $h$ by letting $A=e^{h/4}$. For a compact oriented surface $F$, it is shown that $K(F \times I)$ is a quantization of the…

We prove a global Torelli theorem for the moduli space of marked triples (X,m,A), consisting of an irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifold X, a marking m of its second integral cohomology, and a stable and rigid sheaf A of Azumaya…

We associate several invariants to a knot in an integer homology 3-sphere using $SU(2)$ singular instanton gauge theory. There is a space of framed singular connections for such a knot, equipped with a circle action and an equivariant…

We formulate a very general conjecture relating the analytical invariants of a normal surface singularity to the Seiberg-Witten invariants of its link provided that the link is a rational homology sphere. As supporting evidence, we…

We study some arithmetic properties of the mirror maps and the quantum Yukawa coupling for some 1-parameter deformations of Calabi-Yau manifolds. First we use the Schwarzian differential equation, which we derived previously, to…

In this paper we develop the theory of finite-type invariants for homologically nontrivial 3-manifolds. We construct an infinite-dimensional affine space with a hypersurface in it corresponding to manifolds with Morse singularities.…

A holomorphic triple over a compact Riemann surface consists of two holomorphic vector bundles and a holomorphic map between them. After fixing the topological types of the bundles and a real parameter, there exist moduli spaces of stable…

In [LMO] a 3-manifold invariant $\Omega(M)$ is constructed using a modification of the Kontsevich integral and the Kirby calculus. The invariant $\Omega$ takes values in a graded Hopf algebra of Feynman 3-valent graphs. Here we show that…

For a triple $(G,A,\kappa)$ (where $G$ is a group, $A$ is a $G$-module and $\kappa:G^3\to A$ is a 3-cocycle) and a $G$-module $B$ we introduce a new cohomology theory $_2H^n(G,A,\kappa;B)$ which we call the secondary cohomology. We give a…

Let $M$ be a closed orientable Riemannian surface. Consider an SO(3)-connection $A$ and a Higgs field $\Phi:M\to so(3)$. The pair $(A,\Phi)$ naturally induces a cocycle over the geodesic flow of $M$. We classify (up to gauge…

We compare the invariants of flat vector bundles defined by Atiyah et al. and Jones et al. and prove that, up to weak homotopy, they induce the same map, denoted by $e$, from the $0$-connective algebraic $K$-theory space of the complex…

We define new higher-order Alexander modules $\mathcal{A}_n(C)$ and higher-order degrees $\delta_n(C)$ which are invariants of the algebraic planar curve $C$. These come from analyzing the module structure of the homology of certain…

For any arbitrary algebraic curve, we define an infinite sequence of invariants. We study their properties, in particular their variation under a variation of the curve, and their modular properties. We also study their limits when the…

We study a cross-ratio of four generic points of $S^3$ which comes from spherical CR geometry. We construct a homomorphism from a certain group generated by generic configurations of four points in $S^3$ to the pre-Bloch group $\mathcal…

We examine the space of surfaces in $\RR^{3}$ which are complete, properly embedded and have nonzero constant mean curvature. These surfaces are noncompact provided we exclude the case of the round sphere. We prove that the space $\Mk$ of…

We prove exact complexity dichotomies for two quantum invariants of closed oriented three-manifolds, with the categorical data fixed. For a modular category $\mathcal{C}$, computing the Reshetikhin--Turaev invariant $Z_{\mathcal{C}}(M)$…

We propose a definition of the rotation number for transverse graph diagrams, extending the classical notion of the rotation number for plane curves. Using this, we introduce a normalized multi-variable Alexander polynomial for framed,…
