We show that there exist infinitely many pairs of non-homeomorphic closed oriented SOL torus bundles with the same quantum (TQFT) invariants. This follows from the arithmetic behind the conjugacy problem in $SL(2,\Z)$ and its congruence…

We consider a class of manifolds with torus boundary admitting bordered Heegaard Floer homology of a particularly simple form, namely, the type D structure may be described graphically by a disjoint union of loops. We develop a calculus for…

In this note we classify invariant star products with quantum momentum maps on symplectic manifolds by means of an equivariant characteristic class taking values in the equivariant cohomology. We establish a bijection between the…

In this paper, we study $G$-equivariant tensor categories for a finite group $G$. These categories were introduced by Turaev under the name of $G$-crossed categories; the motivating example of such a category is the category of twisted…

An action of a torus T on a manifold M is locally standard if, at each point, the stabilizer is a sub-torus and the non-zero isotropy weights are a basis to its weight lattice. The quotient M/T is then a manifold-with-corners, decorated by…

We reduced Rudyak's conjecture that a degree one map between closed manifolds cannot raise the Lusternik-Schnirelmann category to the computation of the category of the product of two lens spaces $L^n_p\times L_q^n$ with relatively prime…

We establish upper bounds for the complexity of Seifert fibered manifolds with nonempty boundary. In particular, we obtain potentially sharp bounds on the complexity of torus knot complements.

We show that in codimension at least 3, spaces of locally flat topological embeddings of manifolds are correctly modelled by derived spaces of maps between their configuration categories (under mild smoothability conditions). That general…

We introduce the notion of a locally standard $T$-pseudomanifold, a class that generalizes both complete toric varieties and locally standard $T$-manifolds. The main goal of this paper is to show that locally standard $T$-pseudomanifolds…

The main objects of this paper are torus orbifolds that have exactly two fixed points. We study the equivariant topological type of these orbifolds and consider when we can use the results of the paper [DKS] (arXiv:1809.03678) to compute…

There are several different notions of maximal torus actions on smooth manifolds, in various contexts: symplectic, Riemannian, complex. In the symplectic context, for the so-called isotropy-maximal actions, as well as for the weaker notion…

By analogy with the invariant Q-category defined by Scheerer, Stanley and Tanr\'e, we introduce the notions of Q-sectional category and Q-topological complexity. We establish several properties of these invariants. We also obtain a formula…

We propose some problems on the classification of toric manifolds from the viewpoint of topology and survey related results.

Using a homological invariant together with an obstruction class in a certain Ext^2-group, we may classify objects in triangulated categories that have projective resolutions of length two. This invariant gives strong classification results…

A twist is a datum playing a role of a local system for topological $K$-theory. In equivariant setting, twists are classified into four types according to how they are realized geometrically. This paper lists the possible types of twists…

In this paper we investigate equivariant Morita theory for algebras with momentum maps and compute the equivariant Picard groupoid in terms of the Picard groupoid explicitly. We consider three types of Morita theory: ring-theoretic…

In this paper, we define a relative $L^2$-$\rho$-invariant for Dirac operators on odd-dimensional spin manifolds with boundary and show that they are invariants of the bordism classes of positive scalar curvature metrics which are collared…

This paper gives methods for understanding invariants of symplectic quotients. The symplectic quotients considered here are compact symplectic manifolds (or more generally orbifolds), which arise as the symplectic quotients of a symplectic…

Let $T$ be the circle group and let $LT$ be its loop group. We formulate and investigate several topological aspects of the $LT$-equivariant index theory for proper $LT$-spaces, where proper $LT$-spaces are infinite-dimensional manifolds…

In this work, it is shown that a simply-connected, rationally-elliptic torus orbifold is equivariantly rationally homotopy equivalent to the quotient of a product of spheres by an almost-free, linear torus action, where this torus has rank…
