We prove that a closed arithmetic hyperbolic 3-manifold with positive first betti number has virtually infinite first betti number.
We will provide bounds on both the Betti numbers and the torsion part of the homology of hyperbolic orbifolds. These bounds are linear in the volume and are a direct consequence of an efficient simplicial model of the thick part, which we…
We calculate the Lefschetz number of a Galois automorphism in the cohomology of certain arithmetic congruence groups arising from orders in quaternion algebras over number fields. As an application we give a lower bound for the first Betti…
We show that the Betti numbers of finite-volume negatively curved orbifolds grow at most linearly with the volume, with coefficients in an arbitrary field. In particular, this gives a linear bound for the Betti numbers of finite-volume…
We give examples of closed hyperbolic 3-manifolds with first Betti number 2 and 3 for which no sequence of finite abelian covering spaces increases the first Betti number. For 3-manifolds $M$ with first Betti number 2 we give a…
In this paper we construct explicit examples of both closed and non-compact finite volume hyperbolic manifolds which provide counterexamples to the conjecture that the co-rank of a 3-manifold group (also known as the cut number) is bounded…
We discuss the geometry of some arithmetic orbifolds locally isometric to a product of real hyperbolic spaces of dimension two and three, and prove that certain sequences of non-uniform orbifolds are convergent to this space in a geometric…
We introduce an upper bound of the Betti numbers of a compact Riemannian manifold given integral bounds on the average of the lowest eigenvalues of the curvature operator. We then establish a new curvature condition for the Betti numbers to…
In this paper, we study a Bahri-Brezis type problem on a compact 3-dimensional asymptotically hyperbolic manifold. Using the celebrated Algebraic Topological argument of Bahri-Coron, we show the existence of at least one solution under the…
Bresinsky defined a class of monomial curves in $\mathbb{A}^{4}$ with the property that the minimal number of generators or the first Betti number of the defining ideal is unbounded above. We prove that the same behaviour of unboundedness…
We show that when a sequence of Riemannian manifolds collapses under a lower Ricci curvature bound, the first Betti number cannot drop more than the dimension.
We prove a vanishing and estimation theorem for the $p^{\text{th}}$-Betti number of closed $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with a lower bound on the average of the lowest $n-p$ eigenvalues of the curvature operator. This generalizes…
Asymptotic normality is frequently observed in large combinatorial structures, rigorously established for many quantities such as cycles or inversions in random permutations, the number of prime factors of random integers, and various…
The virtual Betti number conjecture states that any hyperbolic three-manifold has a finite cover with positive first Betti number. We show that this would follow if it were known that the derived series of the fundamental group $G$ of a…
We show the non-vanishing of cohomology groups of sufficiently small congruence lattices in $SL(1,D)$, where $D$ is a quaternion division algebras defined over a number field $E$ contained inside a solvable extension of a totally real…
Given a reducible $3$-manifold $M$ with an aspherical summand in its prime decomposition and a homeomorphism $f\colon M\to M$, we construct a map of degree one from a finite cover of $M\rtimes_f S^1$ to a mapping torus of a certain…
We prove that asymptotically in the degree, the main term of the Boij--S\"oderberg decomposition of a high degree curve is a single pure diagram that only depends on the genus of the curve. This answers a question of Ein and Lazarsfeld in…
In this paper, we study 3-dimensional complete non-compact Riemannian manifolds with asymptotically nonnegative Ricci curvature and a uniformly positive scalar curvature lower bound. Our main result is that, if this manifold has $k$ ends…
We prove that the second Betti number of a compact Riemannian manifold vanishes under certain Ricci curved restriction.
Associated with a prime homology class $\beta \in P_2(X,\Z)$ (i.e. $\beta=p\alpha$ and $\alpha \in H_2(X,\Z)$ imply $p=1$ or $p$ is an odd prime) on a symplectic three-manifold with vanishing first Chern class, we count the embedded…
