We study the existence problem and the enumeration problem for sections of Serre fibrations over compact orientable surfaces. When the fundamental group of the fiber is finite, a complete solution is given in terms of 2-dimensional…

A planar portrait of a manifold is the pair of the image and the critical values of the manifold through a stable map into the plane. It can be considerd a geometric representation of the manifold drawn in the plane. The cusped fan is its…

This is a summary of some of the basic facts about flat 2-orbifold groups, otherwise known as 2-dimensional crystallographic groups. We relate the geometric and topological presentations of these groups, and consider structures…

For singular corank 1 surfaces in $\mathbb R^3$ we introduce a distinguished normal vector called the axial vector. Using this vector and the curvature parabola we define a new type of curvature called the axial curvature, which generalizes…

Tight triangulated manifolds are generalisations of neighborly triangulations of closed surfaces and are interesting objects in Combinatorial Topology. Tight triangulated manifolds are conjectured to be minimal. Except few, all the known…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety and $G$ a finite group of automorphisms of $A$ fixing the origin such that $A/G$ is smooth. The quotient $A/G$ can be seen as a fibration over an abelian variety whose fibers are isomorphic to a product of…

We show that the generic fiber of a family of smooth $\mathbb{A}^{1}$-ruled affine surfaces always carries an $\mathbb{A}^{1}$-fibration, possibly after a finite extension of the base. In the particular case where the general fibers of the…

This is a first in a series of papers, devoted to the relation betwwen three-manifolds and number fields. The present paper studies first homology of finite coverings of a three-manifold with primary interest in the Thurston $b_1$…

Triangular meshes are the most popular representations of 3D objects, but many mesh surfaces contain topological singularities that represent a challenge for displaying or further processing them properly. One such singularity is the…

We consider threefolds that admit a fibration by K3 surfaces over a nonsingular curve, equipped with a divisorial sheaf that defines a polarisation of degree two on the general fibre. Under certain assumptions on the threefold we show that…

We investigate the filling area conjecture, optimal systolic inequalities, and the related problem of the nonvanishing of certain linking numbers in 3-manifolds.

Let $M$ be a compact 3-manifold with a triangulation $\tau$. We give an inequality relating the Euler characteristic of a surface $F$ normally embedded in $M$ with the number of normal quadrilaterals in $F$. This gives a relation between a…

We show that the theory of varifolds can be suitably enriched to open the way to applications in the field of discrete and computational geometry. Using appropriate regularizations of the mass and of the first variation of a varifold we…

In this work, we investigate the behaviour of the covering gonality of a very general hypersurface in a product of projective spaces. Inspired by the work of Bastianelli, Ciliberto, Flamini and Suppino in [BCFS19] which addresses the case…

In this paper we define and study real fibered morphisms. Such morphisms arise in the study of real hyperbolic hypersurfaces in projective space and other hyperbolic varieties. We show that real fibered morphisms are intimately connected to…

We study the general fibre of a formal deformation over the formal disk of a projective variety from the view point of abelian and derived categories. The abelian category of coherent sheaves of the general fibre is constructed directly…

This paper presents a brief study on connections on fiber, principal and vector smooth bundles as well as some relations with their curvatures.

We develop recursive formulas for the horizontal and vertical monodromies of a quasi-ordinary surface. These are monodromies associated to the Milnor fiber of a slice transverse to a component of the singular locus. In the course of working…

We consider a general fibre of given length in a generic projection of a va- riety. Under the assumption that the fibre is of local embedding dimension 2 or less, an assumption which can be checked in many cases, we prove that the fibre is…

In earlier work of two of the authors, two 1-loop polynomial invariants of cusped 3-manifolds were constructed using combinatorial data of ideal triangulations, and conjectured to be equal to the $\mathbb{C}^2$ and the…
