This paper is the first of a 3-part series that classifies the 5-dimensional Thurston geometries. The present paper (part 1 of 3) summarizes the general classification, giving the full list, an outline of the method, and some illustrative…

Let $S$ be a $P^2$-knot which is the connected sum of a 2-knot with normal Euler number 0 and an unknotted $P^2$-knot with normal Euler number $\pm2$ in a closed 4-manifold $X$ with trisection $T_{X}$. Then, we show that the trisection of…

We give a complete investigation of Morley's trisector theorem. If the intersections of the half lines starting from the adjacent vertices of a triangle form an equilateral triangle for an arbitrary triangle, then the half lines are the…

It is natural to ask how many isotopy classes of embedded essential surfaces lie in a given 3-manifold. The first bounds on the number of such surfaces were exponential, using normal surfaces. More recently, by restricting to alternating…

J.H.C. Whitehead introduced the concept of crossed modules in the early 20th century. These crossed modules are crucial for algebraic models of 2-type homotopy, which involve connected spaces with no higher than second-degree homotopy…

1) In 1976, looking at simple finite-dimensional complex Lie superalgebras, J.~Bernstein and I, and independently M.~Duflo, observed that certain divergence-free vectorial Lie superalgebras have deformations with odd parameters and…

Castro and Ozbagci constructed a trisection of a closed 4-manifold admitting a Lefschetz fibration with a $(-1)$-section such that the corresponding trisection diagram can be explicitly constructed from a monodromy of the Lefschetz…

Let $(X, A)$ be a polarized nonsingular toric 3-fold with not effective $A+K_X$. Then for any ample line bundle $L$ on $X$ the image of the embedding by the complete linear system of $L$ is an intersections of quadrics.

We consider endomorphism algebras of $n$-term silting complexes in derived categories of hereditary algebras, and we show that the module category of such an endomorphism algebra has a separated $n$-section. For $n=3$ we obtain a trisection…

We prove that every cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold has a finite cover admitting infinitely many geometric ideal triangulations. Furthermore, every long Dehn filling of one cusp in this cover admits infinitely many geometric ideal…

Let P be a planar n-point set. A k-partition of P is a subdivision of P into n/k parts of roughly equal size and a sequence of triangles such that each part is contained in a triangle. A line is k-shallow if it has at most k points of P…

This paper considers affine analogues of the isoperimetric inequality in the sense of piecewise linear topology. Given a closed polygon P embedded in R^d having n edges, we give upper and lower bounds for the minimal number of triangles…

In the 1980s, Neumann and Zagier introduced a symplectic vector space associated to an ideal triangulation of a cusped 3-manifold, such as a knot complement. We give a geometric interpretation for this symplectic structure in terms of the…

The Hilbert scheme of projective 3-folds of codimension 3 or more that are linear scrolls over the projective plane or over a smooth quadric surface or that are quadric or cubic fibrations over the projective line is studied. All known such…

We show that every smooth, closed, orientable 4-manifold X admits a special kind of handlebody decomposition that we call horizontal. We classify the closed 4-manifolds with the simplest horizontal decompositions and we describe all such…

An (edge) decomposition of a graph $G$ is a set of subgraphs of $G$ whose edge sets partition the edge set of $G$. Here we show, for each odd $\ell \geq 5$, that any graph $G$ of sufficiently large order $n$ with minimum degree at least…

Given a smooth subscheme of a projective space over a finite field, we compute the probability that its intersection with a fixed number of hypersurface sections of large degree is smooth of the expected dimension. This generalizes the case…

We compute some numerical invariants of the lines on hyperplane sections of a smooth cubic threefold over complex numbers. We also prove that for any smooth hypersurface $X\subset \mathbb P^{n+1}$ of degree $d$ over an algebraically closed…

In this paper, we consider the decomposition of multigraphs under minimum degree constraints and give a unified generalization of several results by various researchers. Let $G$ be a multigraph in which no quadrilaterals share edges with…

Tight triangulated manifolds are generalisations of neighborly triangulations of closed surfaces and are interesting objects in Combinatorial Topology. Tight triangulated manifolds are conjectured to be minimal. Except few, all the known…
