Every compact symmetric space $M$ admits a dual noncompact symmetric space $\check{M}$. When $M$ is a generalized Grassmannian, we can view $\check{M}$ as a open submanifold of it consisting of space-like subspaces \cite{HL}. Motivated from…
Using a high resolution DM simulation of the Local Group (LG), conducted within the framework of the Constrained Local UniversE Simulation (CLUES) project, we investigate the nature of how satellites of the MW and M31 are accreted.…
We investigate the line between tight and overtwisted for surgeries on fibred transverse knots in contact 3-manifolds. When the contact structure $\xi_K$ is supported by the fibred knot $K \subset M$, we obtain a characterisation of when…
We try to give a geometric construction for 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ gauge theories using three-manifolds and Dehn surgeries. We follow the story that wrapping M5-branes on plumbing three-manifolds leads to 3d theories with mixed Chern-Simons…
This paper combines several new constructions in mathematics and physics. Mathematically, we study framed flat PGL(K,C)-connections on a large class of 3-manifolds M with boundary. We define a space L_K(M) of framed flat connections on the…
We show that the space $\text{Lip}_0(\mathbb R^n)$ is the dual space of $L^{1}({\mathbb R}^{n}; {\mathbb R}^{n})/N$ where $N$ is the subspace of $L^{1}({\mathbb R}^{n}; {\mathbb R}^{n})$ consisting of vector fields whose divergence…
This paper demonstrates the power of the calculus developed in the two previous parts of the series for all real forms of the almost Hermitian symmetric structures on smooth manifolds, including e.g. conformal Riemannian and almost…
Building on Greene's changemaker lattices, we develop a lattice embedding obstruction to realizing an L-space bounding a definite 4-manifold as integer surgery on a knot in the Poincar\'e homology sphere. As the motivating application, we…
From a pseudo-triangulation with $n$ tetrahedra $T$ of an arbitrary closed orientable connected 3-manifold (for short, {\em a 3D-space}) $M^3$, we present a gem $J '$, inducing $\IS^3$, with the following characteristics: (a) its number of…
We provide related Dehn surgery descriptions for rational homology spheres and a class of their regular finite cyclic covering spaces. As an application, we use the surgery descriptions to relate the Casson invariants of the covering spaces…
We study knots in $S^3$ with infinitely many $SU(2)$-cyclic surgeries, which are Dehn surgeries such that every representation of the resulting fundamental group into $SU(2)$ has cyclic image. We show that for every such nontrivial knot…
We study the class L of link-types that admit a K4-minor-free diagram, i.e., they can be projected on the plane so that the resulting graph does not contain any subdivision of K4. We prove that L is the closure of a subclass of torus links…
Surgery, as developed by Browder, Kervaire, Milnor, Novikov, Sullivan, Wall and others is a method for comparing homotopy types of topological spaces with diffeomorphism or homeomorphism types of manifolds of dimension >= 5. In this paper,…
Given a link L in the 3-sphere, we ask whether the components of L bound disjoint, nullhomologous disks properly embedded in a simply-connected positive-definite smooth 4-manifold; the knot case has been studied extensively in work of…
A reconstruction theorem in terms of the topology and geometrical structures on the spaces of light rays and skies of a given space-time is discussed. This result can be seen as part of Penrose and Low's programme intending to describe the…
Let $T$ be a satellite knot, link, or spatial graph in a 3-manifold $M$ that is either $S^3$ or a lens space. Let $\mathfrak{b}_0$ and $\mathfrak{b}_1$ denote genus 0 and genus 1 bridge number, respectively. Suppose that $T$ has a companion…
Let L\subset V=\bR^{k,l} be a maximally isotropic subspace. It is shown that any simply connected Lie group with a bi-invariant flat pseudo-Riemannian metric of signature (k,l) is 2-step nilpotent and is defined by an element \eta \in…
Differential calculus on discrete spaces is studied in the manner of non-commutative geometry by representing the differential calculus by an operator algebra on a suitable Krein space. The discrete analogue of a (pseudo-)Riemannian metric…
Lie subalgebras of $ L = \mathfrak{g}(\!(x)\!) \times \mathfrak{g}[x]/x^n\mathfrak{g}[x] $, complementary to the diagonal embedding $\Delta$ of $ \mathfrak{g}[\![x]\!] $ and Lagrangian with respect to some particular form, are in bijection…
We introduce the notion of contact round surgery of index $1$ on Legendrian knots in a general contact 3-manifold. It generalizes the notion of contact round surgery of index 1 on Legendrian knots introduced by Adachi. In…
