A manifold with an irreducible $SO(3)$-structure is a $5$-manifold $M$ whose structure group can be reduced to the group $SO(3)$, non-standardly imbedded in $SO(5)$. The study of such manifolds has been initiated by M. Bobie\'nski and P.…

We investigate the relationship between the algebra of tensor categories and the topology of framed 3-manifolds. On the one hand, tensor categories with certain algebraic properties determine topological invariants. We prove that fusion…

In this monograph, we lay some foundations of a theory of infinite dimensional Euclidean lattices - and more generally, of infinite dimensional Hermitian vector bundles over some "arithmetic curve" ${\rm Spec}\,\mathcal{O}_K$ attached to…
We characterise the integrability of any co-CR quaternionic structure in terms of the curvature and a generalized torsion of the connection. Also, we apply this result to obtain, for example, the following. (1) New co-CR quaternionic…
We consider the relationship between hyperbolic cone-manifold structures on surfaces, and algebraic representations of the fundamental group into a group of isometries. A hyperbolic cone-manifold structure on a surface, with all interior…
The transition maps for a Sobolev $G$-bundle are not continuous in the critical dimension and thus the usual notion of topology does not make sense. In this work, we show that if such a bundle $P$ is equipped with a Sobolev connection $A$,…
We study smooth bundles over surfaces with highly connected almost parallelizable fiber $M$ of even dimension, providing necessary conditions for a manifold to be bordant to the total space of such a bundle and showing that, in most cases,…
In this paper we show that a simply connected 8-dimensional manifold M of positive sectional curvature and symmetry rank $\geq 2$ resembles a rank one symmetric space in several ways. For example, the Euler characteristic of M is equal to…

Let $M$ be a closed manifold that admits a self-cover $p:M \to M$ of degree >1. We say p is strongly regular if all its iterates are regular covers. In this case, we establish an algebraic structure theorem for the fundamental group of $M$:…
