We address two fundamental and well-known problems of Gromov and Lyndon: \demo{Problem A} (Gromov, see [5]). Consider a category $M_n$ of closed manifolds of dimension $n$ with nonzero-degree ways as morphisms. Study a partial order $M \ge…

A generalized-homology bordism-theory is constructed, such that for certain manifold homotopy stratified sets (MHSS; Quinn-spaces) homeomorphism-invariant geometric fundamental-classes exist. The construction combines three ideas: Firstly,…

On every compact and orientable three-manifold, we construct total foliations (three codimension 1 foliations that are transverse at every point). This construction can be performed on any homotopy class of plane fields with vanishing Euler…

We construct Heegaard Floer theory for 3-manifolds with connected boundary. The theory associates to an oriented, parametrized two-manifold a differential graded algebra. For a three-manifold with parametrized boundary, the invariant comes…

We construct Hamiltonian Floer complexes associated to continuous, and even lower semi-continuous, time dependent exhaustion functions on geometrically bounded symplectic manifolds. We further construct functorial continuation maps…

We prove that the GKM graphs of GKM$_4$ manifolds that are either Hamiltonian or of complexity one extend to torus graphs. The arguments are based on a reformulation of the extension problem in terms of a natural representation of the…

We show that the resulting manifold by $r$-surgery on the knot $5_2$, which is the two-bridge knot corresponding to the rational number 3/7, has left-orderable fundamental group if the slope $r$ satisfies $0\le r\le 4$.

The smooth rational homology cobordism group of rational homology three spheres, T, contains subgroups T_p generated by 3-manifolds with first homology p-torsion, where p is a prime. Rochlin's theorem and gauge theoretic methods show that…

For every finitely generated free group we construct an explicit left order extending the lexicographic order on the free monoid generated by the positive letters. The order is defined by a left, free action on the orbit of 0 of a free…

In aperiodic order, non-periodic but "ordered" objects such as tilings, Delone sets, functions and measures are investigated. In this article we depict the common structure of these objects by using the general framework of abstract pattern…

Based on [1], we study the complexity of horizontality in each twistor space $\hat{E}_{\varepsilon}$ associated with an oriented vector bundle $E$ of rank $4$ with a positive-definite metric over the $2$-torus $T^2$, and obtain…

We show that the pre-order defined on the category of contact manifolds by arbitrary symplectic cobordisms is considerably less rigid than its counterparts for exact or Stein cobordisms: in particular, we exhibit large new classes of…

We focus on L-spaces for which the boundary maps of the Heegaard Floer chain complexes vanish. In previous paper \cite{Usui}, we collect such manifolds systematically by using the smoothing order on links. In this paper, we classify such…

We generalize the definition of thin position of Scharlemann and Thompson for compact orientable 3-manifolds with torus boundary components and introduce $\alpha$-sloped generalized Heegaard splittings. We examine its relationship to…

We consider a homological enlargement of the mapping class group, defined by homology cylinders over a closed oriented surface (up to homology cobordism). These are important model objects in the recent Goussarov-Habiro theory of…

We prove that the homology of the mapping class group of any 3-manifold stabilizes under connected sum and boundary connected sum with an arbitrary 3-manifold when both manifolds are compact and orientable. The stabilization also holds for…
