An operad structure on certain bicoloured noncrossing configurations in regular polygons is studied. Motivated by this study, a general functorial construction of enveloping operad, with input a coloured operad and output an operad, is…
We show that a closed orientable 3--dimensional manifold admits a round fold map into the plane, i.e. a fold map whose critical value set consists of disjoint simple closed curves isotopic to concentric circles, if and only if it is a graph…
We study configuration spaces of hard spheres in a bounded region. We develop a general Morse-theoretic framework, and show that mechanically balanced configurations play the role of critical points. As an application, we find the precise…
The present paper mainly presents, for example, explicit classifications of compact smooth manifolds having non-empty boundaries and simple structures where the dimensions are general. Studies of this type is fundamental and important. They…
This paper is a sequel to [LoMa] where moduli spaces of painted stable curves were introduced and studied. We define the extended modular operad of genus zero, algebras over this operad, and study the formal differential geometric…
The moduli space of spatial polygons is known as a symplectic manifold equipped with both K\"ahler and real polarizations. In this paper, associated to the K\"ahler and real polarizations, morphisms of operads…
We study weighted composition operators acting between Fock spaces. The following results are obtained: (1) Criteria for the boundedness and compactness; (2) Characterizations of compact differences and essential norm; (3) Complete…
Let M be a simply-connected closed manifold and consider the (ordered) configuration space of $k$ points in M, F(M,k). In this paper we construct a commutative differential graded algebra which is a potential candidate for a model of the…
We study the operad structure on the homology of moduli spaces of pointed rooted trees of $d$-dimensional projective spaces, introduced by Chen, Gibney and Krashen a couple of decades ago. We describe this operad by generators and…
In this paper configuration spaces of smooth manifolds are considered. The accent is made on actions of certain groups (mostly $p$-tori) on this spaces by permuting their points. For such spaces the cohomological index, the genus in the…
This paper concerns the study of the homotopy type of the ordered configuration space for manifolds with boundary and as an application we will study the collision free motion planning problem on manifolds with boundary.
In this paper we consider surfaces which are critical points of the Willmore functional subject to constrained area. In the case of small area we calculate the corrections to the intrinsic geometry induced by the ambient curvature. These…
For a topological space $X$ we study continuous maps $f : X\to \mathbb R^m$ such that images of every pairwise distinct $k$ points are affinely (linearly) independent. Such maps are called affinely (linearly) $k$-regular embeddings. We…
We introduce two topological non-$\Sigma$ operad structures on planar line arrangements subject to a certain geometric order condition, ensuring a well-defined notion of particle ordering on a distinguished line. This is interpreted in…
Some results on fixed points related to the contractive compositions of bounded operators in complete metric spaces are discussed through the manuscript. The class of composite operators under study can include, in particular, sequences of…
Understanding the geometry and topology of configuration or conformational spaces of molecules has relevant applications in chemistry and biology such as the proteins folding problem, drug design and the structure activity relationship…
The analysis of manifold valued data using embedding based methods is linked to the problem of finding suitable embeddings. In this paper we are interested in embeddings of quotient manifolds $\mathrm{SO}(3)/\mathcal{S}$ of the rotation…
We study the action of the orthogonal group on the little $n$-disks operads. As an application we provide small models (over the reals) for the framed little $n$-disks operads. It follows in particular that the framed little $n$-disks…
We introduce a new map between configuration spaces of points in a background manifold - the replication map - and prove that it is a homology isomorphism in a range with certain coefficients. This is particularly of interest when the…
We prove a homotopy invariance result for a certain covering space of the space of ordered configurations of two points in $M \times X$ where $M$ is a closed smooth manifold and $X$ is any fixed aspherical space which is not a point.
