The generic singularities and bifurcations are classified for one-parameter families of curves with frames in a space form, the Euclidean space, the elliptic space or the hyperbolic space via projective geometry. Two kinds of frames are…

We study orbifolds of two-dimensional topological field theories using defects. If the TFT arises as the twist of a superconformal field theory, we recover results on the Neveu-Schwarz and Ramond sectors of the orbifold theory as well as…

This paper is about a generalization of famous Inoue's surfaces. Let $M$ be a matrix in $SL(2n+1,\mathbb{Z})$ having only one real eigenvalue which is simple. We associate to $M$ a complex manifold $T_M$ of complex dimension $n+1$. This…

Using the AKSZ prescription we construct 2D and 3D topological field theories associated to generalized complex manifolds. These models can be thought of as 2D and 3D generalizations of A- and B-models. Within the BV framework we show that…

Herein we present open problems and survey examples and theorems concerning sequences of Riemannian manifolds with uniform lower bounds on scalar curvature and their limit spaces. Examples of Gromov and of Ilmanen which naturally ought to…

We provide a lightning review of the construction of (generalised) orbifolds [arXiv:0909.5013, arXiv:1210.6363] of two-dimensional quantum field theories in terms of topological defects, along the lines of [arXiv:1307.3141]. This universal…

Coincidences of maps between smooth manifolds are studied via a geometric approach which involves (nonstabilized) normal bordism theory and pathspaces.

This manuscript recounts some of the author's contributions to algebraic and enumerative combinatorics. We have focused on two types of generalizations of bipartite maps, which are bipartite graphs embedded on surfaces. Maps are known to…

We give two generalizations of the Clifford theorem to algebraic surfaces. As an application, we obtain some bounds for the number of moduli of surfaces of general type.

We elaborate an algebraic framework for describing internal topological symmetries of gapped boundaries of (2+1)D topological orders. We present a categorical obstruction to the coherence of bulk group symmetry and boundary symmetries in…

We give a characterisation of Bieberbach manifolds which are geodesic boundaries of a compact flat manifold, and discuss the low dimensional cases, up to dimension 4.

We will introduce formal frames of manifolds, which are a generalization of ordinary frames. Their fundamental properties are discussed. In particular, canonical forms are introduced, and torsions are defined in terms of them as a…

In this paper, we establish some general Kastler-Kalau-Walze type theorems for any dimensional manifolds with boundary which generalize the results in [WW1].

Flat connections induced over covering maps are studied and the trivial ones among them are described. In the sequel, we deal with the resulting holonomy bundles.

In this study, we give the dual characterizations of Mannheim offsets of the ruled surface in terms of their integral invariants and the new characterization of the Mannheim offsets of developable surface. Furthermore, we obtain the…

Higher dimensional generalizations of Schwarz's $P$-surface, Schwarz's $D$-surface and Scherk's second surface are constructed as complete embedded periodic minimal hy- persurfaces in $\mathbb R^n$.

We determine which properties of 2-layer drawings characterise bipartite graphs of bounded pathwidth.

The book is devoted to constructing embedding finite-dimensional maps into trivial bundles and investigating the corresponding general position properties.

In this paper we give a survey of various results about the topology of oriented Grassmannian bundles related to the exceptional Lie group G_2. Some of these results are new. We give self-contained proofs here. One often encounters these…
