A canonical branched covering over each sufficiently good simplicial complex is constructed. Its structure depends on the combinatorial type of the complex. In this way, each closed orientable 3-manifold arises as a branched covering over…
We prove a transversality "lifting property" for compactified configuration spaces as an application of the multijet transversality theorem: the submanifold of configurations of points on an arbitrary submanifold of Euclidean space may be…
We show that the base manifold of a Lagrangian fibration on a hyperk\"ahler manifold is isomorphic to complex projective space. This generalises a theorem of J.-M. Hwang to the K\"ahler case.
Manifold calculus of functors has in recent years been successfully used in the study of the topology of various spaces of embeddings of one manifold in another. Given a space of embeddings, the theory produces a Taylor tower whose purpose…
We consider a family $M_t^3$, with $t>1$, of real hypersurfaces in a complex affine $3$-dimensional quadric arising in connection with the classification of homogeneous compact simply-connected real-analytic hypersurfaces in ${\mathbb C}^n$…
We introduce a new technique for finding CAT(-1) surfaces in hyperbolic 3-manifolds. We use this to show that a complete hyperbolic 3-manifold with finitely generated fundamental group is geometrically and topologically tame.
We prove Simon's conjecture for 3-manifolds.
Product Lagrangian tori in standard symplectic space $R^{2n}$ were classified up to symplectomorphism in [Che96]. We extend this classification to tame symplectically aspherical symplectic manifolds. We show by examples that the asphericity…
We develop a calculus for counting pseudoholomorphic disks with boundary in tropical Lagrangians contained in almost toric manifolds, using our previous work with Venugopalan. The results are mostly in dimension four under monotonicity…
In this note, we first introduce a boundary problem for Lagrangian submanifolds, analogous to the problem for free boundary hypersurfaces and capillary hypersurfaces. Then we present several interesting examples of Lagrangian submanifolds…
This} paper presents relations between least area and normal surfaces, embedded in either a Euclidean or hyperbolic $3$-manifold. A relaxed version of normal surfaces, termed quasi-normal, is introduced, and it is shown that under…
We develop the foundation of the complex symplectic geometry of Lagrangian subvarieties in a hyperkahler manifold. We establish a characterization, a Chern number inequality, topological and geometrical properties of Lagrangian…
We prove the convex combination theorem for hyperbolic n-manifolds. Applications are given both in high dimensions and in 3 dimensions. One consequence is that given two geometrically finite subgroups of a discrete group of isometries of…
This paper is to study the $\mathbb{R}^{3}$ case of \hyperref[Zhao]{[9]}. We determine all equivalence classes of immersed $3$-manifolds bounded by an arbitrary immersed surface in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$.
We will simplify the earlier proofs of Perelman's collapsing theorem of 3-manifolds given by Shioya-Yamaguchi and Morgan-Tian. Among other things, we use Perelman's semi-convex analysis of distance functions to construct the desired local…
We classify Lagrangian submanifolds of complex space forms, whose second fundamental form can be written in a certain way, depending on a real parameter. For some special values of this parameter, the resulting submanifolds are ideal in the…
We construct a Lagrangian in the cotangent bundle of a 3-torus whose projection to the fiber is a neighborhood of a tropical curve with a single 4-valent vertex. This Lagrangian has an isolated conical singular point, and its smooth locus…
We give a new existence proof for closed hypersurfaces of prescribed mean curvature in Lorentzian manifolds.
These revised lecture notes are an expository account of part of the proof of Thurston's Ending Lamination Conjecture for Kleinian surface groups, which states that such groups are uniquely determined by invariants that describe the…
The purpose of this survey is to summarize known results about tropical hypersurfaces and the Cayley Trick from polyhedral geometry. This allows for a systematic study of arrangements of tropical hypersurfaces and, in particular,…
