We introduce a geometric operation, which we call the relative Whitney trick, that removes a single double point between properly immersed surfaces in a $4$-manifold with boundary. Using the relative Whitney trick we prove that every link…

Let C be some class of objects equipped with a set of simplifying moves. When we apply these to a given object M in C as long as possible, we get a root of M. Our main result is that under certain conditions the root of any object exists…

In this work, we study Monge-Ampere equations over closed K\"ahler manifolds with degenerated cohomology classes. Classic results and arguments in pluripotential theory are generalized a little bit to be applied to our situation.

For a closed Riemannian manifold $M$ with a compact Lie group $G$ acting by isometries, we show a generic multiplicity one theorem in equivariant min-max theory, and show in generic sense that there are infinitely many $G$-invariant minimal…

We study complete $3$-manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature under additional regularity assumptions. We prove that a contractible such manifold is diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{R}^3$, and that an open handlebody admitting such a metric…

We develop persistent homology in the setting of filtrations of (Cech) closure spaces. Examples of filtrations of closure spaces include metric spaces, weighted graphs, weighted directed graphs, and filtrations of topological spaces. We use…

Motivated by many applications (geophysical flows, general relativity), we attempt to set the foundations for a study of entropy solutions to nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws posed on a (Riemannian or Lorentzian) manifold. The flux of…

We extend Gromov and Eliashberg-Mishachev's h-principle on manifolds to stratified spaces. This is done in both the sheaf-theoretic framework of Gromov and the smooth jets framework of Eliashberg-Mishachev. The generalization involves…

This paper grew out of an attempt to find a suitable finite sheeted covering of an aspherical 3-manifold so that the cover either has infinite or trivial first homology group. With this motivation we define a new class of groups. These…

Hyperbolic Dehn surgery and the bending procedure provide two ways which can be used to describe hyperbolic deformations of a complete hyperbolic structure on a 3-manifold. Moreover, one can obtain examples of non-Haken manifolds without…

We utilise the two principles of decoupling introduced in [arXiv:2407.16108] to prove decoupling for two types of surfaces exhibiting radial symmetry. The first type are surfaces of revolution in $\mathbb R^n$ generated by smooth surfaces…

We apply representation theory to study the homology of equivariant Dehn-fillings of a given finite, regular cover of a compact 3-manifold with boundary a torus. This yields a polynomial which gives the rank of the part of the homology…

We study closed orientable manifolds whose topological complexity is at most 3 and determine their cohomology rings. For some of admissible cohomology rings we are also able to identify corresponding manifolds up to homeomorphism.

We point out the connection of the so-called H\^opital-style rules for monotonicity and oscillation to some well-known properties of concave/convex functions. From this standpoint, we are able to generalize the rules under no…
