We study the accumulation of zeros of a polynomial arising from the enumeration of edge-coloured graphs along certain limit curves. The polynomial is a variant of an edge-chromatic polynomial, which specialises to the partition function of…

The augmentation variety of a knot is the locus, in the 3-dimensional coefficient space of the knot contact homology dg-algebra, where the algebra admits a unital chain map to the complex numbers. We explain how to express the Alexander…

It is shown that, in the 1-jet space of the circle, the swapping and the flyping procedures, which produce topologically equivalent links, can produce nonequivalent legendrian links. Each component of the links considered is legendrian…

We define an invariant of Legendrian links in the double-point enhanced grid homology of a link, and prove that it obstructs decomposable Lagrangian cobordisms in the symplectization of the standard contact structure on $\mathbb R^3$.

The present note is devoted to an amendment to a recent paper of Ellenberg, Lawrence and Venkatesh. Roughly speaking, the main result here states the subpolynomial growth of the number of integral points with bounded height of a variety…

We show that if a Legendrian knot in standard contact ${\bb R}^3$ possesses a generating family then there exists an augmentation of the Chekanov-Eliashberg DGA so that the associated linearized contact homology (LCH) is isomorphic to…

We establish relationships between two classes of invariants of Legendrian knots in $\mathbb{R}^3$: Representation numbers of the Chekanov-Eliashberg DGA and satellite ruling polynomials. For positive permutation braids, $\beta \subset…

In a previous paper Hua-Jost-Liu, we have applied Alexandrov geometry methods to study infinite semiplanar graphs with nonnegative combinatorial curvature. We proved the weak relative volume comparison and the Poincar\'e inequality on these…

Let E be a circle bundle over a Riemann surface that supports a contact structure transverse to the fibers. This paper presents a combinatorial definition of a differential graded algebra (DGA) that is an invariant of Legendrian knots in E.…

Given a Legendrian submanifold in any dimension, we prove that two augmentations are isomorphic within the positive augmentation category exactly when they differ by a combination of a dga homotopy and a dilation. This extends the…

In this article, we study relations between the local geometry of planar graphs (combinatorial curvature) and em global geometric invariants, namely the Cheeger constants and the exponential growth. We also discuss spectral applications.

We introduce a notion of cardinality for the augmentation category associated to a Legendrian knot or link in standard contact R^3. This `homotopy cardinality' is an invariant of the category and allows for a weighted count of…
