Generalized Calabi-Gray manifolds are non-K\"ahler complex manifolds with very explicit geometry yet not being homogeneous. In this note, we demonstrate that how generalized Calabi-Gray manifolds can be used to answer some questions in…

We describe the quasi-isometric classification of fundamental groups of irreducible non-geometric 3-manifolds which do not have "too many" arithmetic hyperbolic geometric components, thus completing the quasi-isometric classification of…

The derived category of a general complete intersection of four quadrics in P^{2n-1} has a semi-orthogonal decomposition < O(-2n+9), ..., O(-1), O, D >, where D is the derived category of twisted sheaves on a certain non-algebraic complex…

The Heegaard genus of a 3-manifold, as well as the growth of Heegaard genus in its finite sheeted cover spaces, has extensively been studied in terms of algebraic, geometric and topological properties of the 3-manifold. This note shows that…

The purpose of the present paper is twofold: firstly to extend to non-orientable compact 4-manifolds the notion of gem-induced trisection, directly obtained from colored triangulations (or, equivalently, from colored graphs encoding them,…

We define twisted equivariant K-homology groups using geometric cycles. We compare them with approaches using Kasparov KK-Theory and (twisted) group C*-algebras.

Four-manifold theory is employed to study the existence of (twisted) generalized complex structures. It is shown that there exist (twisted) generalized complex structures that have more than one type change loci. In an example-driven…

We show that any 4-manifold admitting a $(g;k_1,k_2,0)$-trisection is an irregular 3-fold cover of the 4-sphere whose branching set is a surface in $S^4$, smoothly embedded except for one singular point which is the cone on a link. A…

We establish a correspondence between trisections of smooth, compact, oriented $4$--manifolds with connected boundary and diagrams describing these trisected $4$--manifolds. Such a diagram comes in the form of a compact, oriented surface…

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…

We study equivariant birationality from the perspective of derived categories. We produce examples of nonlinearizable but stably linearizable actions of finite groups on smooth cubic fourfolds.

We refine Theorem A due to Gursky \cite{G3}. As applications, we give some rigidity theorems on four-manifolds with postive Yamabe constant. In particular, these rigidity theorems are sharp for our conditions have the additional properties…

We investigate slicings of combinatorial manifolds as properly embedded co-dimension 1 submanifolds. A focus is given to dimension 3 where slicings are normal surfaces. In the case of 2-neighborly 3-manifolds and quadrangulated slicings, a…

We introduce the notion of a generalized complex (GC) Stein manifold and provide complete characterizations in three fundamental aspects. First, we extend Cartan's Theorem A and B within the framework of GC geometry. Next, we define…

We give examples of closed orientable graph 3-manifolds with fundamental group which is not a subgroup of GL(4,k) for any field k. This answers a question in the Kirby problem list from 1977 which is credited to the late William Thurston.

Kirby and Thompson introduced a length of a trisection. They also defined the length of a 4-manifold as the minimum of length among all lengths of trisection of a 4-manifold. In this paper, we consider trisections whose Kirby-Thompson…

A theorem of Katanaga, Saeki, Teragaito, and Yamada relates Gluck and Price twists of 4-manifolds. Using trisection diagrams, we give a purely diagrammatic proof of this theorem, and answer a question of Kim and Miller.

A multisection, or $n$-section, of an $(n + 1)$-dimensional manifold is a decomposition of this manifold into $n$ $1$-handlebodies of dimension $n+1$, such that all these handlebodies intersect along a closed surface, and every…

We summarize and expand known connections between the study of Dehn surgery on links and the study of trisections of closed, smooth 4-manifolds. In addition, we describe how the potential counterexamples to the Generalized Property R…

We show that certain two kinds of trisection diagrams of the doubles of the Mazur type 4-manifolds introduced by Akbulut and Kirby are standard. One is constructed by doubling a certain relative trisection diagram of the Mazur type. The…
