We introduce a notion of a sheaf of vector spaces on a graph, and develop the foundations of homology theories for such sheaves. One sheaf invariant, its "maximum excess," has a number of remarkable properties. It has a simple definition,…
In Part I we gave a polynomial growth lower-bound for the number of nodal domains of a Hecke-Maass cuspform in a compact part of the modular surface, assuming a Lindel\"of hypothesis. That was a consequence of a topological argument and…
The Heesch problem 'grades' polygons that fail to tile the plane in terms of the number of layers (or corollas) of copies of it that can be formed around a central unit. We study the different topology of ' walls', which we define to be…
We begin the systematic study of cohomological Hecke operators of modifications of coherent sheaves on a smooth surface $X$, along a fixed proper curve $Z \subset X$. We develop the necessary geometric foundations in order to define the…
Fascinating and puzzling phenomena, such as landmark vector cells, splitter cells, and event-specific representations to name a few, are regularly discovered in the hippocampus. Without a unifying principle that can explain these divergent…
These are expanded notes from some talks given during the fall 2002, about ``homotopical algebraic geometry'' (HAG) with special emphasis on its applications to ``derived algebraic geometry'' (DAG) and ``derived deformation theory''. We use…
String diagrams turn algebraic equations into topological moves that have recurring shapes, involving the sliding of one diagram past another. We individuate, at the root of this fact, the dual nature of polygraphs as presentations of…
We identify a region $\Bbb{W}_{\f{1}{3}}$ in a Grassmann manifold $\grs{n}{m}$, not covered by a usual matrix coordinate chart, with the following important property. For a complete $n-$submanifold in $\ir{n+m} \, (n\ge 3, m\ge2)$ with…
Under suitable conditions on the range of the Gauss map of a complete submanifold of Euclidean space with parallel mean curvature, we construct a strongly subharmonic function and derive a-priori estimates for the harmonic Gauss map. The…
\textit{Harmonic amoebas} are generalisations of amoebas of algebraic curves immersed in complex tori. Introduced in \cite{Kri}, the consideration of such objects suggests to enlarge the scope of tropical geometry. In the present paper, we…
We establish basic results of complex function theory within certain algebras of holomorphic functions on coverings of Stein manifolds (such as algebras of Bohr's holomorphic almost periodic functions on tube domains or algebras of all…
We introduce a notion of halfspace for Hadamard manifolds that is natural in the context of convex optimization. For this notion of halfspace, we generalize a classic result of Gr\"unbaum, which itself is a corollary of Helly's theorem.…
Let $S(\phi)= \{z:\;|\arg(z)|\geq \phi\}$ be a sector on the complex plane $\CC$. If $\phi\geq \pi/2$, then $S(\phi)$ is a convex set and, according to the Gauss-Lucas theorem, if a polynomial $p(z)$ has all its zeros on $S(\phi)$, then the…
A natural extension of the Dijkgraaf-Vafa proposal is to include fields in the fundamental representation of the gauge group. In this paper we use field theory techniques to analyze gauge theories whose tree level superpotential is a…
A topological space is introduced in this paper. Just liking the plane, it's continuous, however its $n+1$ regions couldn't be mutually adjacent. Some important phenomenon about its cross-section are discussed. The geometric generating…
We develop algebraic geometry for general Segal's Gamma-rings and show that this new theory unifies two approaches we had considered earlier on (for a geometry under Spec Z). The starting observation is that the category obtained by gluing…
A topos theoretic generalisation of the category of sets allows for modelling spaces which vary according to time intervals. Persistent homology, or more generally, persistence is a central tool in topological data analysis, which examines…
We study the evolution, under convex Hamiltonian flows on cotangent bundles of compact manifolds, of certain distinguished subsets of the phase space. These subsets are generalizations of Lagrangian graphs, we call them pseudographs. They…
We construct an isomorphism between the wrapped higher-dimensional Heegaard Floer homology of $\kappa$-tuples of cotangent fibers and $\kappa$-tuples of conormal bundles of homotopically nontrivial simple closed curves in $T^*\Sigma$ with a…
A matrix formalism is proposed for computations based on Picard--Lefschetz theory in a 2D case. The formalism is essentially equivalent to the computation of the intersection indices necessary for the Picard--Lefschetz formula and enables…
