A new method is given for computing generators of the homology groups with integer coefficients for any finite $T_0$-space. An important role in this method is played by irreducible cycles which are defined here and give rise to continuous…

We consider actions of non-compact simple Lie groups preserving an analytic rigid geometric structure of algebraic type on a compact manifold. The structure is not assumed to be unimodular, so an invariant measure may not exist. Ergodic…

We construct topological invariants, called abstract weak orbit spaces, of flows and homeomorphisms on topological spaces, to describe both gradient dynamics and recurrent dynamics. In particular, the abstract weak orbit spaces of flows on…

We relate general maps to bipartite maps through a bijection of type slit-slide-sew. We provide an involution on arbitrary genus maps with even degree faces. This enables a full interpretation of the relation between general and bipartite…

In this article we study two "strong" topologies for spaces of smooth functions from a finite-dimensional manifold to a (possibly infinite-dimensional) manifold modeled on a locally convex space. Namely, we construct Whitney type topologies…

We describe work on solutions of certain non-divergence type and therefore non-variational elliptic and parabolic systems on manifolds. These systems include Hermitian and affine harmonics which should become useful tools for studying…

We give a new answer to so-called realization problems of graphs as Reeb graphs of smooth functions with prescribed preimages of regular values having nice structures. We present a best possible answer for functions on 3-dimensional closed…

A theorem of Kontsevich relates the homology of certain infinite dimensional Lie algebras to graph homology. We formulate this theorem using the language of reversible operads and mated species. All ideas are explained using a pictorial…

Let $M$ be a compact smooth manifold with corners and $N$ be a finite dimensional smooth manifold without boundary which admits local addition. We define a smooth manifold structure to general sets of continuous mapings $\mathcal{F}(M,N)$…

With a view towards providing tools for analyzing and understanding digitized images, various notions from algebraic topology have been introduced into the setting of digital topology. In the ordinary topological setting, invariants such as…

In this paper we prove geometric residue theorems for bundle maps over a compact manifold. The theory developed associates residues to the singularity submanifolds of the map for any invariant polynomial. The theory is then applied to a…

Smooth manifolds have been always understood intuitively as spaces with an affine geometry on the infinitesimal scale. In Synthetic Differential Geometry this can be made precise by showing that a smooth manifold carries a natural structure…

We develop a theory of conically smooth stratified spaces and their smooth moduli, including a notion of classifying maps for tangential structures. We characterize continuous space-valued sheaves on these conically smooth stratified spaces…

Special generic maps are smooth maps between smooth manifolds with only definite fold points as their singularities. The problem of whether a closed $n$-manifold admits a special generic map into Euclidean $p$-space for $1 \leq p \leq n$…

Maps between manifolds $M^m\to N^{m+\ell}$ ($\ell>0$) have multiple points, and more generally, multisingularities. The closure of the set of points where the map has a particular multisingularity is called the multisingularity locus. There…

We obtain complete geometric invariants of cobordism classes of oriented simple fold maps of (n+1)-dimensional manifolds into an n-dimensional manifold N in terms of immersions with prescribed normal bundles. We compute that this cobordism…

Kohonen's Self-Organizing Maps (SOMs) have proven to be a successful data-reduction method to identify the intrinsic lower-dimensional sub-manifold of a data set that is scattered in the higher-dimensional feature space. Motivated by the…

Can the Minkowski sum of two compact convex bodies be made smoother by rotating one of them? We construct two infinitely differentiable strictly convex plane bodies such that after any generic rotation (in the Baire category sense) of one…

We begin the study the algebraic topology of semi-coarse spaces, which are generalizations of coarse spaces that enable one to endow non-trivial `coarse-like' structures to compact metric spaces, something which is impossible in coarse…

Dynamical quantum field theories (QFTs), such as those in which spacetimes are equipped with a metric and/or a field in the form of a smooth map to a target manifold, can be formulated axiomatically using the language of…
