The dual complex associated to a resolution of singularities generalizes the notion of a resolution graph of a surface singularity to any dimension. We show that homotopy type of the dual complex is an invariant of an isolated singularity.

The 2-girth of a 2-dimensional simplicial complex $X$ is the minimum size of a non-zero 2-cycle in $H_2(X, \mathbb{Z}/2)$. We consider the maximum possible girth of a complex with $n$ vertices and $m$ 2-faces. If $m = n^{2 + \alpha}$ for…

The product of smooth valuations on manifolds is described in terms of differential forms, Gelfand transforms and blow-up spaces. It is shown that the product extends partially to generalized valuations and corresponds geometrically to…

We prove that the simplicial complex $\Delta _{\mathcal{C}_n,2}$ is pure and a weak pseudomanifold of dimension $2(n-1)$, where $\Delta _{\mathcal{C}_n,2}$ is the simplicial complex associated with $2$-triangulations on the half-cylinder…

We prove a formality theorem for algebraic objects internal to smooth complex varieties that are not compact but whose mixed Hodge structure has a certain purity property.

We construct a minimal complex surface of general type with $p_g=0$, $K^2 =4$, and $\pi_1=\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$ using a rational blow-down surgery and a $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein smoothing theory. In a similar fashion, we also construct a…

The "polyhedral product functor" produces a space from a simplicial complex L and a collection of pairs of spaces, {(A(i),B(i))}, where i ranges over the vertex set of L. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the resulting space…

In general, the product of harmonic forms is not harmonic. We study the top exterior power of harmonic two-forms on compact Kaehler manifolds. Often, it is not harmonic. This phenomenon is related to the geometry of the manifold and to the…

In [B.Gruenbaum, G.C. Shephard, Spherical tilings with transitivity properties, in: The geometric vein, Springer, New York, 1981, pp. 65-98], they proved "for every spherical normal tiling by congruent tiles, if it is isohedral, then the…

A panel structure on a topological space is just a locally finite family of closed subspaces. A space together with a panel structure is called a space with faces. In this paper, we introduce a notion of polyhedral product over a space with…

Given two convex polytopes, the join, the cartesian product and the direct sum of them are well understood. In this paper we extend these three kinds of products to abstract polytopes and introduce a new product, called the topological…

We recently defined a property of Morse shellability (and tileability) of finite simplicial complexes which extends the classical one and its relations with discrete Morse theory. We now prove that the product of two Morse tileable or…

A combinatorial construction is used to analyze the properties of polyhedral products and generalized moment-angle complexes with respect to certain operations on CW pairs including exponentiation. This allows for the construction of…

In the past two decades, extensive research has been conducted on the (co)homology of various models of random simplicial complexes. So far, it has always been examined merely as a list of groups. This paper expands upon this by describing…

Locally analytically, any isolated double point occurs as a double covering of a smooth surface. It can be desingularized via the canonical resolution, as it is well-known. In this paper we explicitly compute the fundamental cycle of both…

We construct explicitly the weights on the simplicial category so that the colimits and limits of 2-functors with those weights provide the Kleisli objects and the Eilenberg-Moore objects, respectively, in any 2-category.

We construct embeddings of simplicial complexes into a (surface of a) simplicial ball whose triangulation has bounded degrees and low volume. This construction can be used either to efficiently "simplify a complicated space" by realizing it…

We analyse compatibility between monads and monoidal structures in the two-dimensional setting. We describe sufficient conditions for monoidal structures to lift to the Eilenberg-Moore pseudoalgebras. We then extend these results to braids,…

A spherical polyhedron surface is a triangulated surface obtained by isometric gluing of spherical triangles. For instance, the boundary of a generic convex polytope in the 3-sphere is a spherical polyhedron surface. This paper investigates…

For an oriented surface link $S$, we can take a satellite construction called a 2-dimensional braid over $S$, which is a surface link in the form of a covering over $S$. We demonstrate that 2-dimensional braids over surface links are useful…
