This thesis represents the first step in an investigation of an interesting class of manifold-theoretic invariants of $E_n$-algebras which generalize topological Hochschild homology. The main goal of this thesis is to give a definition of…
The theory of complex hyperbolic discrete groups is still in its childhood but promises to grow into a rich subfield of geometry. In this paper I will discuss some recent progress that has been made on complex hyperbolic deformations of the…
We give a thorough analysis of those subgroups of SO(3) generated by rotations about perpendicular axes by 2\pi/p and 2\pi/q. A corollary is that such a group is the free product of the cyclic groups of rotations about the separate axes if…
We use a recent result of Bader and Sauer on coboundary expansion to prove residually finite three-dimensional Poincar\'e duality groups never have property (T). This implies such groups are never K\"ahler. The argument applies to…
Given the interest in relating the large $N$ limit of SU(N) to groups of area-preserving diffeomorphisms, we consider the topologies of these groups and show that both in terms of homology and homotopy, they are extremely different. Similar…
Duality groups of Abelian gauge theories on four manifolds and their reduction to two dimensions are considered. The duality groups include elements that relate different space-times in addition to relating different gauge-coupling…
We give a short introduction to the theory of twisted Alexander polynomials of a 3--manifold associated to a representation of its fundamental group. We summarize their formal properties and we explain their relationship to twisted…
The bicovariant differential calculus on the three-dimensional Kappa-Poincar'e group and the corresponding Lie-algebra structure are described. The equivalence of this Lie-algebra structure and the three-dimensional $\kappa$-Poincar\'e…
The paper gives a review of progress towards extending the Thurston programme to the Poincare duality case. For a full abstract, see the published version at the above link.
Poincar\'e's Polyhedron Theorem is a widely known valuable tool in constructing manifolds endowed with a prescribed geometric structure. It is one of the few criteria providing discreteness of groups of isometries. This work contains a…
This work aims to define the concept of manifold, which has a very important place in the topology, on digital images. So, a general perspective is provided for two and three-dimensional imaging studies on digital curves and digital…
We propose various problems about Borel complexity of characterized subgroups of compact abelian groups, inspired by our forthcoming paper \cite{DI3}.
In this article, we classify 1-connected 8-dimensional Poincar\'e complexes, topological manifolds and smooth manifolds with the same homology as $S^3\times S^5$. Some questions of Escher-Ziller are also discussed.
By introducing various topologies on the homotopy groups of a topological space, some researchers make these well known notions in algebraic topology more useful and powerful. In this paper, first we recall and review some known topologies…
In this paper, we give a complete topological, as well as geometrical classification of closed 3-dimensional Lorentz manifolds admitting a noncompact isometry group.
We investigate the problem of Poincar\'e duality for $L^p$ differential forms on bounded subanalytic submanifolds of $\mathbb{R}^n$ (not necessarily compact). We show that, when $p$ is sufficiently close to $1$ then the $L^p$ cohomology of…
The article is devoted to a structure of topological spaces related with topological quasigroups. Regular and complete spaces over topological quasigroups are studied. Separations and embeddings are also investigated for them. Their…
In this article we survey, and make a few new observations about, the surprising connection between sub-monoids of mapping class groups and interesting geometry and topology in low-dimensions.
The theory of intersection spaces assigns cell complexes to certain stratified topological pseudomanifolds depending on a perversity function in the sense of intersection homology. The main property of the intersection spaces is Poincar\'e…
In this paper we study generalized Poincar\'e-Andronov-Hopf bifurcations of discrete dynamical systems. We prove a general result for attractors in n-dimensional manifolds satisfying some suitable conditions. This result allows us to obtain…
