In this paper, we first introduce the concept of symmetrical symplectic capacity for symmetrical symplectic manifolds, and by using this symmetrical symplectic capacity theory we prove that there exists at least one symmetric closed…

We prove that in a closed manifold of dimension between 3 and 7 with a bumpy metric, the min-max minimal hypersurfaces associated with the volume spectrum introduced by Gromov, Guth, Marques-Neves, are two-sided and have multiplicity one.…

We study cohomological properties of complex manifolds. In particular, under suitable metric conditions, we extend to higher dimensions a result by A. Teleman, which provides an upper bound for the Bott-Chern cohomology in terms of Betti…

For a (compact) subset $K$ of a metric space and $\varepsilon > 0$, the {\em covering number} $N(K , \varepsilon )$ is defined as the smallest number of balls of radius $\varepsilon$ whose union covers $K$. Knowledge of the {\em metric…

We discuss construction of coverings of the unit ball of a finite dimensional Banach space. The well known technique of comparing volumes gives upper and lower bounds on covering numbers. This technique does not provide a construction of…

This article presents an algebraic topology perspective on the problem of finding a complete coverage probability of a one dimensional domain $X$ by a random covering, and develops techniques applicable to the problem beyond the one…

This paper investigates the rational Betti numbers of real toric manifolds associated with chordal nestohedra. We consider the poset topology of a specific poset induced from a chordal building set, and show its EL-shellability. Based on…

We study the question of the growth of Betti numbers of certain arithmetic varieties in tower of congruence coverings. In fact, our results are about Siegel varieties and varieties associated to orthogonal groups. We explain how a theorem…

A symplectic form is called hyperbolic if its pull-back to the universal cover is a differential of a bounded one-form. The present paper is concerned with the properties and constructions of manifolds admitting hyperbolic symplectic forms.…

To any prime alternating link, we associate a collection of hyperbolic right-angled ideal polyhedra by relating geometric, topological and combinatorial methods to decompose the link complement. The sum of the hyperbolic volumes of these…

Let $A$ be a compact $d$-dimensional $C^2$ Riemannian manifold with boundary, embedded in ${\bf R}^m$ where $m \geq d \geq 2$, and let $B$ be a nice subset of $A$ (possibly $B=A$). Let $X_1,X_2, \ldots $ be independent random uniform points…

We give an elementary proof that, for a closed manifold with an integral-integral affine structure, its total volume and number of integral points coincide. The proof uses rational Ehrhart theory and elementary Fourier analysis to estimate…

Using the theory of cohomology support locus, we give a necessary condition for the Albanese map of a smooth projective surface being a submersion. More precisely, assuming the cohomology support locus of any finite abelian cover of a…

In this paper, we will show that certain types of symplectic homology can be used as an invariant of 3-dimensional Besse manifolds, which are strict contact manifolds with periodic Reeb flow. For simplicity, we will assume our Besse…

Consider a closed manifold $M$ with two Riemannian metrics: one hyperbolic metric, and one other metric $g$. What hypotheses on $g$ guarantee that for a given radius $r$, there are balls of radius $r$ in the universal cover of $(M, g)$ with…

In \cite{BAMU}, an ergodic theorem \`a la Birkhoff-von Neumann for the action of the fundamental group of a compact negatively curved manifold on the boundary of its universal cover is proved. A quick corollary is the irreducibility of the…

The following inequalities are established, improving a former inequality due to Kojima. For any closed arithmetic hyperbolic $3$--manifold fibering over a circle, the entropy of the pseudo-Anosov monodromy is bounded by the hyperbolic…

In this paper, we investigate the asymptotic behavior of the integral simplicial volume of cyclic covers of manifolds that fiber over the circle with fiber given by an $n$-dimensional torus. By studying the integral filling volume -- an…

We prove a formula for the Bergman kernel of polarized complex hyperbolic manifolds. The formula expresses the Bergman kernel as a sum over the geodesic loops in the manifold. As an application, we prove a result about the maximum and…

We show that the set of cusp shapes of hyperbolic tunnel number one manifolds is dense in the Teichmuller space of the torus. A similar result holds for tunnel number n manifolds. As a consequence, for fixed n, there are infinitely many…
