We give an a priori proof of the known presentations of (that is, completeness of families of relations for) the principal subspaces of all the standard A_1^(1)-modules. These presentations had been used by Capparelli, Lepowsky and Milas…
We show that the Andrews-Curtis conjecture holds for all balanced presentations of the trivial group corresponding to Heegaard diagrams of $S^3$.
Working over a field of characteristic zero, we give structure theorems for all grade three licci ideals and their minimal free resolutions. In particular, we completely classify such ideals up to deformation. The descriptions of their…
We develop the structure theory of symplectic Lie groups based on the study of their isotropic normal subgroups. The article consists of three main parts. In the first part we show that every symplectic Lie group admits a sequence of…
Many complex systems can be represented as networks, and the problem of network comparison is becoming increasingly relevant. There are many techniques for network comparison, from simply comparing network summary statistics to…
Given a representation of a link group, we introduce a trilinear form, as a topological invariant. We show that, if the link is either hyperbolic or a knot with malnormality, then the trilinear form equals the pairing of the (twisted)…
We give a stopping criterion for the enumeration of all conjugacy classes in cocompact triangle groups up to any geometric length. The enumeration is based on an encoding given by P. Dehornoy and T. Pinsky.
Several authors have introduced various type of coherent-like rings and proved analogous results on these rings. It appears that all these relative coherent rings and all the used techniques can be unified. In [2], several coherent-like…
For a central perfect extension of groups $A \rightarrowtail G\twoheadrightarrow Q$, first we study the natural image of $H_3(A,\mathbb{Z})$ in $H_3(G, \mathbb{Z})$. As a particular case, we show that if the extension is universal this…
We obtain the full list of Goeritz invariants of all torus knots and links.
Gordon and Litherland showed that all compact, unoriented, possibly non-orientable surfaces in $S^3$ bounded by a link are realted by attaching/deleting tubes and half twisted bands. In this note we give an elementary proof for this result.
We apply the twisting technique that was first introduced in \cite{CK} and later generalized in \cite{QCQ} to obtain an infinite family of adequate, homogeneous or alternative links from a given adequate, homogeneous or alternative link,…
This paper uses work of Haettel to classify all subgroups of PGL(4,R) isomorphic to (R^3 , +), up to conjugacy. We use this to show there are 4 families of generalized cusps up to projective equivalence in dimension 3.
Semiholomorphic polynomials are functions $f:\mathbb{C}^2\to\mathbb{C}$ that can be written as polynomials in complex variables $u$, $v$ and the complex conjugate $\overline{v}$. We prove the semiholomorphic analogoue of Akbulut's and…
In a recent paper, McMullen showed an inequality between the Thurston norm and the Alexander norm of a 3-manifold. This generalizes the well-known fact that twice the genus of a knot is bounded from below by the degree of the Alexander…
In this note we make several observations concerning symplectic cobordisms. Among other things we show that every contact 3-manifold has infinitely many concave symplectic fillings and that all overtwisted contact 3-manifolds are…
We give here a simple proof of the centrality of the congruence subgroup kernel in the higher rank isotropic case.
We present an elementary derivation of the "intrinsic" symmetry groups for knots and links of 8 or fewer crossings. The standard symmetry group for a link is the mapping class group $\MCG(S^3,L)$ or $\Sym(L)$ of the pair $(S^3,L)$. Elements…
We prove that a certain $\omega$-category, which was constructed in previous work by the third and fourth author, is a model for the fully coherent walking $\omega$-equivalence. Further, appropriate truncations of it give models for the…
In 2019, P. Higgins formulated [1] a question about bipartite graphs (see Conjecture 1 below); this question arises in the study of regular finite semigroups. F. V. Petrov formulated [2] another combinatorial conjecture (Conjecture 3);…
