We study the a.s. convergence of a sequence of random embeddings of a fixed manifold into Euclidean spaces of increasing dimensions. We show that the limit is deterministic. As a consequence, we show that many intrinsic functionals of the…

The twisted suspension of a manifold is obtained by surgery along the fibre of a principal circle bundle over the manifold. It generalizes the spinning operation for knots and preserves various topological properties. In this article, we…

We introduce the notion of round surgery diagrams in $S^3$ for representing 3-manifolds similar to Dehn surgery diagrams. We give a correspondence between a certain class of round surgery diagrams and Dehn surgery diagrams for 3-manifolds.…

In this paper we examine the topology of manifolds equipped with a local quaternionic toric action modeled on the regular representation of the quaternionic torus $Q^n=(S^3)^n$. Building on our previous work, where the toric, differential…

The geodesic orbit property is useful and interesting in itself, and it plays a key role in Riemannian geometry. It implies homogeneity and has important classes of Riemannian manifolds as special cases. Those classes include weakly…

We study a family of mappings from the powers of the unit tangent sphere at a point to a complete Riemannian manifold with non-positive sectional curvature, whose behavior is related to the spherical mean operator and the geodesic random…

The aim of this paper is to address the following question: given a contact manifold $(\Sigma, \xi)$, what can be said about the aspherical symplectic manifolds $(W, \omega)$ bounded by $(\Sigma, \xi)$ ? We first extend a theorem of…

Fintushel-Stern's knot surgery gave many pairs of exotic manifolds, which are homeomorphic but non-diffeomorphic. We show that if an elliptic fibration has two parallel, oppositely oriented vanishing circles (for example $S^2\times S^2$ or…

We study geometric and topological properties of the image of a smooth submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ under a bi-Lipschitz map to $\mathbb{R}^{m}$. In particular, we characterize how the dimension, diameter, volume, and reach of the…

A symplectic manifold $W$ with contact type boundary $M = \partial W$ induces a linearization of the contact homology of $M$ with corresponding linearized contact homology $HC(M)$. We establish a Gysin-type exact sequence in which the…

We study the Moore-Penrose inverse of perturbations by a symmetrically-normed ideal of a closed range operator on a Hilbert space. We show that the notion of essential codimension of projections gives a characterization of subsets of such…

Let $\Omega=G/K$ be a bounded symmetric domain and $S=K/L$ its Shilov boundary. We consider the action of $G$ on sections of a homogeneous line bundle over $\Omega$ and the corresponding eigenspaces of $G$-invariant differential operators.…

The Roper--Suffridge extension operator and its modifications are powerful tools to construct biholomorphic mappings with special geometric properties. The first purpose of this paper is to analyze common properties of different extension…

We prove that the Riemannian geometry of almost K\"ahler manifolds can be expressed in terms of the Poisson algebra of smooth functions on the manifold. Subsequently, K\"ahler-Poisson algebras are introduced, and it is shown that a…

Stable fold maps are fundamental tools in a generalization of the theory of Morse functions on smooth manifolds and its application to studies of topological properties of smooth manifolds. Round fold maps were introduced as stable fold…
