Twisted transition metal dichalcogenides (tTMDs) provide a highly tunable platform to explore the interplay between strong correlation and topology. Among them, the properties involving the charge degree of freedom have been extensively…

The article is devoted to homological complexes. Smashly graded modules and complexes are studied over nonassociative algebras with metagroup relations. Smashed tensor products of homological complexes are investigated. Their homotopisms…

Suppose the knot group G(K) of a knot K has a non-abelian representation \rho on A_4 \subset GL(4,Z). We conjecture that the twisted Alexander polynomial of K associated to \rho is of the form: \Delta_K(t)/(1-t) \phi(t^3), where \Delta_K…

We introduce the notion of a twisted differential operator of given radius relative to an endomorphism $$\sigma$$ of an affinoid algebra A. We show that this notion is essentially independent of the choice of the endomorphism $$\sigma$$. As…

Fuchsian groups with a modular embedding have the richest arithmetic properties among non-arithmetic Fuchsian groups. But they are very rare, all known examples being related either to triangle groups or to Teichmueller curves. In Part I of…

Questions that seek to determine whether a hyperplane arrangement property, be it geometric, arithmetic or topological, is of a combinatorial nature (that is determined by the intersection lattice) are abundant in the literature. To tackle…

We obtain a novel formula for characteristic polynomials of deformations of the Braid arrangement using the notion of levels of regions. As an application, we recover and strengthen results of Chen et al. on the characteristic polynomial of…

We develop the theory of arrangements of spheres. Consider a finite collection of codimension-$1$ subspheres in a positive-dimensional sphere. There are two posets associated with this collection: the poset of faces and the poset of…

We define several homology theories for central hyperplane arrangements, categorifying well-known polynomial invariants including the characteristic polynomial, Poincare polynomial, and Tutte polynomial. We consider basic algebraic…

We study incompressible surfaces constructed by Culler-Shalen theory in the context of twisted Alexander polynomials. For a $1$st cohomology class of a $3$-manifold the coefficients of twisted Alexander polynomials induce regular functions…

In this paper we classify the irreducible integrable modules for the twisted toroidal extended affine Lie algebras with center acting non-trivially.

We complete the enumeration of the possible roots of the Alexander polynomial (both conventional and over finite fields) of a trigonal curve. The curves are not assumed proper or irreducible.

In a previous paper by the authors, we found some patterns in link diagrams that give rise to torsion elements of order two in their Khovanov homology. In this paper we extend these results by providing new torsion patterns. Many of the…

A classical result in knot theory says that the Alexander polynomial of a fibered knot is monic and that its degree equals twice the genus of the knot. This result has been generalized by various authors to twisted Alexander polynomials and…

There is a natural stratification of the character variety of a finitely presented group coming from the jumping loci of the first cohomology of one-dimensional representations. Equations defining the jumping loci can be effectively…

We study when the Thurston norm is detected by twisted Alexander polynomials associated to representations of the 3-manifold group to SL(2, C). Specifically, we show that the hyperbolic torsion polynomial determines the genus for a large…

We study the Ext modules in the category of left modules over a twisted algebra of a finite quiver over a ringed space $(X,\mathcal O_X)$, allowing for the presence of relations. We introduce a spectral sequence which relates the Ext…

We extend the Billera-Ehrenborg-Readdy map between the intersection lattice and face lattice of a central hyperplane arrangement to affine and toric hyperplane arrangements. For arrangements on the torus, we also generalize Zaslavsky's…

We define twisted Frobenius extensions of graded superrings. We develop equivalent definitions in terms of bimodule isomorphisms, trace maps, bilinear forms, and dual sets of generators. The motivation for our study comes from…

This is a paper in a series systematically to study toroidal vertex algebras. Previously, a theory of toroidal vertex algebras and modules was developed and toroidal vertex algebras were explicitly associated to toroidal Lie algebras. In…
