In this paper we prove a recent conjecture by M. Hirsch, which says that if $(f,\Omega)$ is a discrete time monotone dynamical system, with $f\colon \Omega\to\Omega$ a homeomorphism on an open connected subset of a finite dimensional vector…
The Brasselet number of a function $f$ with nonisolated singularities describes numerically the topological information of its generalized Milnor fibre. In this work, we consider two function-germs $f,g:(X,0)\rightarrow(\mathbb{C},0)$ such…
In this note we define fibrations of topological stacks and establish their main properties. We prove various standard results about fibrations (fiber homotopy exact sequence, Leray-Serre and Eilenberg-Moore spectral sequences, etc.). We…
We use the upper and lower potential functions and Bowen's formula estimating the Hausdorff dimension of the limit set of a regular semigroup generated by finitely many $C^{1+\alpha}$-contracting mappings. This result is an application of…
Given a positive integer $p$, we consider $W^{1,p}$-maps from a Euclidean domain of dimension $p+1$ into a closed Riemannian manifold $\mathcal{N}$. The target manifold is required to satisfy suitable topological conditions; in particular,…
We work in a class of Sobolev $W^{1,p}$ maps, with $p > d-1$, from a bounded open set $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{d}$ to $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ that do not exhibit cavitation and whose trace on $\partial \Omega$ is also $W^{1,p}$. Under the…
A new type of Hopf invariant is described for the fiber of the pinch map from the mapping cone of a map from A to X onto to the suspension of A; this is then used to study the boundary map in the fibration sequence of Cohen, Moore and…
Let $X$ and $Y$ be the Hausdorff topological spaces and let $A$ be both an $\fs$- and $\gd$- subset of $X$. Let also $f\cn A\to Y$ be a function for which the inverse image of every open subset $U\subset Y$ is $\fs$ in $X$. We show that $f$…
We explore the interplay between different definitions of distortion for mappings $f\colon X\to \mathbb{R}^2$, where $X$ is any metric surface, meaning that $X$ is homeomorphic to a domain in $\mathbb{R}^2$ and has locally finite…
The need for the extra dimension in Kustaanheimo-Stiefel (KS) regularization is explained by the topology of the Hopf fibration, which defines the geometry and structure of KS space. A trajectory in Cartesian space is represented by a…
The main result of this paper is a universal finiteness theorem for the set of all small dilatation pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms, ranging over all surfaces. More precisely, we consider pseudo-Anosovs F:S to S with |chi(S)| log(lambda(F))…
Let $(W,\Pi)$ be a Riemann domain over a complex manifold $M$ and $w_0$ be a point in $W$. Let $\mathbb D$ be the unit disk in $\mathbb C$ and $\mathbb T=\bd\mathbb D$. Consider the space ${\mathcal S}_{1,w_0}({\bar{\mathbb D}},W,M)$ of…
This note studies the geometric structure of monotone moment polytopes (the duals of smooth Fano polytopes) using probes. The latter are line segments that enter the polytope at an interior point of a facet and whose direction is integrally…
We obtain sharp rotation bounds for the subclass of homeomorphisms $f:\mathbb{C}\to\mathbb{C}$ of finite distortion which have distortion function in $L^p_{loc}$, $p>1$, and for which a H\"older continuous inverse is available. The interest…
Let $n \geq 3$ and $\Omega$ be a bounded domain in $\mathbb{C}^n$ with a smooth negative plurisubharmonic exhaustion function $\varphi$. As a generalization of Y. Tiba's result, we prove that any holomorphic function on a connected open…
Let $p:R^n\to R$ be a polynomial map. Consider the complex $S'\Omega^*(\RR^n)$ of tempered currents on $R^n$ with the twisted differential $d_p=d-dp$ where $d$ is the usual exterior differential and $dp$ stands for the exterior…
We develop complex function theory within certain algebras of holomorphic functions on coverings of Stein manifolds. This, in particular, includes the results on holomorphic extension from complex submanifolds, corona type theorems,…
We give further evidence that genus-one fibers with multi-sections are mirror dual to fibers with Mordell-Weil torsion. In the physics of F-theory compactifications this implies a relation between models with a non-simply connected gauge…
For most aspherical Seifert-fibered 3-manifolds $M$, the space of Seifert fiberings $SF(M)$ is known to have contractible components. It is also known that the space of Hopf fiberings of the three-sphere is noncontractible. We provide the…
Suppose that $f$ defines a singular, complex affine hypersurface. If the critical locus of $f$ is one-dimensional, we obtain new general bounds on the ranks of the homology groups of the Milnor fiber of $f$. This result has an interesting…
