In this note for a topological group $G$, we introduce a bounded subset of $G$ and we find some relationships of this definition with other topological properties of $G$.
We introduce a modification of the Tur\'an density of ordered graphs and investigate this graph parameter.
The hyperelliptic Torelli group is the subgroup of the mapping class group consisting of elements that act trivially on the homology of the surface and that also commute with some fixed hyperelliptic involution. The authors and Putman…
In this short note we introduce a new metric on certain finite groups. It leads to a class of groups for which the element orders satisfy an interesting inequality. This extends the class CP_2 studied in our previous paper [16].
We find a series of topological phase transitions of increasing order, beyond the more standard second-order phase transition in a one-dimensional topological superconductor. The jumps in the order of the transitions depend on the range of…
Based on [1], we study the complexity of horizontality in each twistor space $\hat{E}_{\varepsilon}$ associated with an oriented vector bundle $E$ of rank $4$ with a positive-definite metric over the $2$-torus $T^2$, and obtain…
Deligne cohomology can be viewed as a differential refinement of integral cohomology, hence captures both topological and geometric information. On the other hand, it can be viewed as the simplest nontrivial version of a differential…
The positive Dehn twist expressions for the generalizations of the new involutions described in math.GT/0404310 are presented. The homeomorphism types of the Lefschetz fibrations that they define are determined for several examples.
We propose a new theory to characterize equilibrium topological phase with non-equilibrium quantum dynamics by introducing the concept of high-order topological charges, with novel phenomena being predicted. Through a dimension reduction…
In this paper we consider successive iterations of the first-order differential operations in space ${\bf R}^3.$
In this paper we complete the classification of topological symmetry groups for complete graphs $K_n$ by characterizing which $K_n$ can have a cyclic group, a dihedral group, or a subgroup of $D_m \times D_m$ where $m$ is odd, as its…
Ruberman gave the first examples of self-diffeomorphisms of four-manifolds that are isotopic to the identity in the topological category but not smoothly so. We give another example of this phenomenon, using the Dehn twist along a 3-sphere…
This paper appears as the confluence of hyperbolic dynamics, symplectic topology and low dimensional topology, etc. We show that composite symplectic Dehn twists have certain form of nonuniform hyperbolicity: it has positive topological…
These are notes from the 2003 C.I.M.E. summer school "symplectic 4-manifolds and algebraic surfaces". They cover the same material as the author's (by now ancient) Ph.D. thesis.
For any unoriented loop on a compact connected oriented surface with one boundary component, the generalized Dehn twist along the loop is defined as an automorphism of the completed group ring of the fundamental group of the surface. If the…
In this paper, we study the Riley polynomial of double twist knots with higher genus. Using the root of the Riley polynomial, we compute the range of rational slope $r$ such that $r$-filling of the knot complement has left-orderable…
For a nonorientable surface, the twist subgroup is an index 2 subgroup of the mapping class group. It is generated by Dehn twists about two-sided simple closed curves. In this paper, we study involution generators of the twist subgroup. We…
Normally we judge Topological shapes analytically but they hide significant amount of data in them about coordinate planes and ordered & unordered paris. In this article we will build our intuition and find those datas.
This study is on small oscillations of a heavy symmetric top. A different method than previous works is applied, and differently from previous works, the explicit formulas for the amplitudes for oscillations are given. This method can be…
This paper introduces the notion of twisted toric manifolds which is a generalization of one of symplectic toric manifolds, and proves the weak Delzant type classification theorem for them. The computation methods for their fundamental…
