In this paper, we consider a dynamical system on the Riemann sphere that evolves through a set-valued map, namely a holomorphic correspondence. Analogous to the investigation of the dynamics effected by a continuous map defined on a compact…

The one-term distributive homology was introduced by J.H.Przytycki as an atomic replacement of rack and quandle homology, which was first introduced and developed by R.Fenn, C.Rourke and B.Sanderson, and J.S.Carter, S.Kamada and M.Saito.…

It often happens that free algebras for a given theory satisfy useful reasoning principles that are not preserved under homomorphisms of algebras, and hence need not hold in an arbitrary algebra. For instance, if $M$ is the free monoid on a…

This is an introductory review of the connection between homotopy theory and path integrals, mainly focus on works done by Schulman [23] that he compared path integral on SO(3) and its universal covering space SU(2), DeWitt and Laidlaw [15]…

Consider a Hamiltonian action of a compact Lie group H on a compact symplectic manifold (M,w) and let G be a subgroup of the diffeomorphism group Diff(M). We develop techniques to decide when the maps on rational homotopy and rational…

We describe the first stem of the stable homotopy groups of spheres by using some Puppe sequences, Thom complexes, K-Theory and Adams operations following the ideas of J. Frank Adams. We also touch upon the second and the third stems in…

Let $\pi$ be a finitely presented group. If h is a non trivial homology class in Hn($\pi$; Z), a theorem of Gromov (see [Gro83], 6) asserts the existence of regular geometric cycles which represent h, whose relative systolic volume is as…

A clear understanding of topology of higher-dimensional objects is important in many branches of both pure and applied mathematics. In this survey we attempt to present some results of higher-dimensional topology in a way which makes clear…

The holographic principle asserts that the observable number of degrees of freedom inside a volume is proportional not to the volume, but to the surface area bounding the volume. There is currently a need to explain the principle in terms…

We consider sequences of metrics, $g_j$, on a Riemannian manifold, $M$, which converge smoothly on compact sets away from a singular set $S\subset M$, to a metric, $g_\infty$, on $M\setminus S$. We prove theorems which describe when…

In homotopy type theory (HoTT), all constructions are necessarily stable under homotopy equivalence. This has shortcomings: for example, it is believed that it is impossible to define a type of semi-simplicial types. More generally, it is…

The aim of this work is to proceed with the development of a model of topological electromagnetism in empty space, proposed by one of us some time ago and based on the existence of a topological structure associated with the radiation…

The smooth rational homology cobordism group of rational homology three spheres, T, contains subgroups T_p generated by 3-manifolds with first homology p-torsion, where p is a prime. Rochlin's theorem and gauge theoretic methods show that…

Let $f:M^m\longrightarrow \Bbb R^{m+k}$ be an immersion where $M$ is a smooth connected $m$-dimensional manifold without boundary. Then we construct a subspace $\Omega(f)$ of $ \mathbb{R}^k$, namely push-out space. which corresponds to a…
