Using Galois-Stiefel-Whitney classes of theta characteristics we show that over a totally real base field the moduli stack of smooth genus $g$ curves and the moduli stack of principally polarized abelian varieties of dimension $g$ have…

In this thesis we study the Seiberg-Witten theory of an oriented homology 3-sphere. The goal is to extract topological invariants - the Seiberg-Witten invariants - by counting the solutions to the Seiberg-Witten equations on the manifold.…

In this paper we prove the laws of Toda brackets on the homotopy groups of a connective ring spectrum and the laws of the cup-one square in the homotopy groups of a commutative connective ring spectrum.

Let $W$ be a Coxeter group whose proper parabolic subgroups are finite. According to Theorem~1.12 of [1], if the module of a finite $W$-digraph $\Gamma$ is isomorphic to the module of a $W$-graph over $Q$, then $\Gamma$ is acyclic. We…

The $2$-primary Hopf invariant $1$ elements in the stable homotopy groups of spheres form the most accessible family of elements. In this paper we explore some properties of the $\mathcal{E}_\infty$ ring spectra obtained from certain…

We show that the fundamental group of every enumeratively rationally connected closed symplectic manifold is finite. In other words, if a closed symplectic manifold has a non-zero Gromov-Witten invariant with two point insertions, then it…

We prove that the Chow-Witt group of zero-cycles is a birational invariant of smooth proper schemes over a base field.

In this brief report, we show that in a 1D system with unit-cell doubling, the coefficient of the $\theta$-term is not only determined the topological index, $\int i\bra{u_k}\frac{\d}{\d k}\ket{u_k}{\rm d}k$. Specifically, the relative…

We derive spectral sum rules for inverse powers of the eigenvalues of the Helmholtz equation on a $d$-sphere in the presence of an arbitrary density. By adopting a rigorous renormalization scheme, we remove the divergent contributions of…

This is the first part in a series in which sofic entropy theory is generalized to class-bijective extensions of sofic groupoids. Here we define topological and measure entropy and prove invariance. We also establish the variational…

In our earlier paper (K. Eda, U. Karimov, and D. Repov\v{s}, \emph{A construction of simply connected noncontractible cell-like two-dimensional Peano continua}, Fund. Math. \textbf{195} (2007), 193--203) we introduced a cone-like space…

It is shown that for a given infinite graph $G$ on countably many vertices, and a compact, infinite set of real numbers $\Lambda$ there is a real symmetric matrix $A$ whose graph is $G$ and its spectrum is $\Lambda$. Moreover, the set of…

This is the second of two papers introducing and investigating two bivariate zeta functions associated to unipotent group schemes over rings of integers of number fields. In the first part, we proved some of their properties such as…

In this article, we give examples of smooth varieties of positive characteristic whose first integral overconvergent de Rham-Witt cohomology modulo torsion is not finitely generated over the Witt ring of the base field.

Let $X$ be a simply connected path connected topological space which is formal in the sense of rational homotopy theory. Let $Y=X\cup_\alpha\mathbb{D}^{n}$ where $\alpha:\mathbb{S}^{n-1}\to X$ is a non-torsion element. Then we obtain a…

Free string theory on the plane-wave background displays a discrete Z2 symmetry exchanging the two transverse SO(4) rotation groups. This symmetry should be respected also at the interacting level. We show that the zero mode structure…

Let $p\in \mathbb{Z}$ be an odd prime. We prove a spectral version of Tate-Poitou duality for the algebraic $K$-theory spectra of number rings with $p$ inverted. This identifies the homotopy type of the fiber of the cyclotomic trace…

The volume of the unit sphere in every dimension is given a new interpretation as a product of special values of the zeta function of $\mathbb{Z}$, akin to volume formulas of Minkowski and Siegel in the theory of arithmetic groups. A…

We study the space of pseudo-holomorphic spheres in compact symplectic manifolds with convex boundary. We show that the theory of Gromov-Witten invariants can be extended to the class of semi-positive manifolds with convex boundary. This…

We prove that the centralizer algebras of the symplectic and orthogonal group acting on tensor space are cellular algebras over the integers. We do this by providing an axiomatic framework for studying quotient towers for towers of diagram…
