The energy of harmonic sections of flat bundles of nonpositively curved (NPC) length spaces over a Riemann surface $S$ is a function $E_\rho$ on Teichm\"uller space $\Teich$ which is a qualitative invariant of the holonomy representation…

We construct an analogue of the classical theta-function on an Abelian variety for closed 4-dimensional symplectic manifolds which are T^2-bundles over T^2 with the zero Euler class. We use our theta-functions for a canonical symplectic…

Two-dimensional systems with $C_{2}\mathcal{T}$ ($P\mathcal{T}$) symmetry exhibit the Euler class topology $E\in\mathbb{Z}$ in each two-band subspace realizing a fragile topology beyond the symmetry indicators. By systematically studying…

Let $N$ be a closed, connected, and oriented Riemannian manifold, which admits a quasiregular $\omega$-curve $\mathbb{R}^n \to N$ with infinite energy. We prove that, if the de Rham class of $\omega$ is non-zero and belongs to a so-called…

Real band topology often appears in systems with space-time inversion symmetry and is characterized by invariants such as the Euler and second Stiefel-Whitney classes. Here, we examine the generic band topology of Bogoliubov de-Gennes (BdG)…

Let $M^n$ be a compact K$\ddot{a}$hler manifold with almost nonnegative Ricci curvature and nonzero first Betti number. We show that the holomorphic Euler number of $M^n$ vanishes, which gives a new obstruction for compact complex manifolds…

We show that the Ruelle zeta function for a negatively curved oriented surface vanishes at zero to the order given by the absolute value of the Euler characteristic. This result was previously known only in constant curvature.

Let $ E \xrightarrow[\text{}]{\pi} B$ be an oriented circle bundle over an oriented closed surface $B$. A quasisection is a smooth surface ${Q}$ (either closed or bordered) mapped by a generic smooth mapping $q$ to $E$ such that $\pi\circ…

Let X be a smooth projective curve of genus at least two over the complex numbers. A pair (E,\phi) over X consists of an algebraic vector bundle E over X and a holomorphic section \phi of E. There is a concept of stability for pairs which…

In two previous papers the author presented a general construction of finite, fiber- and orientation-preserving group actions on orientable Seifert manifolds. In this paper we restrict our attention to elliptic 3-manifolds. A proof is given…

A classical result says that a free action of the circle $\Bbb{S}^1$ on a topological space $X$ is geometrically classified by the orbit space $B$ and by a cohomological class ${H}^{^{2}}{(B,\Bbb{Z})}$, the Euler class. When the action is…

The paper investigates vanishing conditions on the first cohomology module of a normalized rank 2 vector bundle E on P^3 which force E to split, and finds therefore strategic levels of non-vanishing for a non-split bundle. The present…

We geometrically construct a homology theory that generalizes the Euler characteristic mod 2 to objects in the unoriented cobordism ring N_*(X) of a topological space X. This homology theory Eh_* has coefficients Z/2 in every nonnegative…

We obtain a vanishing theorem for the kernel of a Dirac operator on a Clifford module twisted by a sufficiently large power of a line bundle, whose curvature is non-degenerate at any point of the base manifold. In particular, if the base…

We prove that any compact K\"ahler 3-dimensional manifold which has no non-trivial complex subvarieties is a torus. This is a very special case of a general conjecture on the structure of 'simple manifolds', central in the bimeromorphic…

For each circle bundle $S^1\to X\to\Sigma_g$ over a surface with genus $g\ge2$, there is a natural surjection $\pi:Homeo^+(X)\to Mod(\Sigma_g)$. When $X$ is the unit tangent bundle $U\Sigma_g$, it is well-known that $\pi$ splits. On the…

This is an attempt to generalize some basic facts of homological algebra to the case of "complexes" in which the differential satisfies the condition $d^N=0$ instead of the usual $d^2=0$. Instead of familiar sign factors, the constructions…

We prove an exact control theorem, in the sense of Hida theory, for the ordinary part of the middle degree \'etale cohomology of certain Hilbert modular varieties, after localizing at a suitable maximal ideal of the Hecke algebra. Our…

If $\frak g$ is a complex simple Lie algebra, and $k$ does not exceed the dual Coxeter number of $\frak g$, then the k$^{th}$ coefficient of the $dim \frak g$ power of the Euler product may be given by the dimension of a subspace of…
