We develop the theory of the diagrammatics of surface cross sections to prove that there are an infinite number of homology 3-spheres smoothly embeddable in a homology 4-sphere but not in a homotopy 4-sphere. Our primary obstruction comes…
We construct expanding endomorphisms on smooth manifolds that are homeomorphic to tori yet have exotic underlying PL-structures.
In earlier papers we introduced a representation of isotopy classes of compact surfaces embedded in the three-sphere by so called rectangular diagrams. The formalism proved useful for comparing Legendrian knots. The aim of this paper is to…
A necessary and sufficient algebraic condition for a diffeomorphism over a surface embedded in the 3-sphere to be induced by a regular homotopic deformation is discussed, and a formula for the number of signed pass moves needed for this…
In this paper we consider the problem of characterization of topological spaces that embed into countably compact Hausdorff spaces. We study the separation axioms of subspaces of countably compact Hausdorff spaces and construct an example…
In this paper we construct the Floer homology for an action functional which was introduced by Rabinowitz and prove a vanishing theorem. As an application, we show that there are no displaceable exact contact embeddings of the unit…
We study curvature-adapted submanifolds of general symmetric spaces. We generalize Cartan's theorem for isoparametric hypersurfaces of spheres and Wang's classification of isoparametric Hopf hypersurfaces in complex projective spaces to any…
In this paper we develop a global correspondence between immersed horospherically convex hypersurfaces in hyperbolic space and complete conformal metrics on domains in the sphere. We establish results on when the hyperbolic Gauss map is…
We show that the standard method for constructing closed hyperbolic manifolds of arbitrary dimension possessing reflective symmetries typically produces reflections whose fixed point sets are nonseparating.
In this short note, we exhibit an infinite family of hyperbolic rational homology $3$--spheres which do not admit any fillable contact structures. We also note that most of these manifolds do admit tight contact structures.
In this paper, we prove that Euclidean hypersurfaces with almost extremal extrinsic radius or $\lambda_1$ have a spectrum that asymptotically contains the spectrum of the extremal sphere in the Reilly or Hasanis-Koutroufiotis Inequalities.…
We show an example of an embedded copy of 5RP^2 in the four-sphere which is topologically standard but smoothly knotted, i.e. smoothly not isotopic to the standard embedding.
We obtain a complete classification of proper biharmonic hypersurfaces with at most three distinct principal curvatures in sphere spaces with arbitrary dimension. Precisely, together with known results of Balmu\c{s}-Montaldo-Oniciuc, we…
We obtain a new differentiable sphere theorem for compact Lagrangian submanifolds in complex Euclidean space and complex projective space.
In this survey article we provide an introduction to submanifold geometry in symmetric spaces of noncompact type. We focus on the construction of examples and the classification problems of homogeneous and isoparametric hypersurfaces, polar…
We prove that the group of area-preserving diffeomorphisms of the 2-sphere admits a non-trivial homogeneous quasimorphism to the real numbers with the following property. Its value on any diffeomorphism supported in a sufficiently small…
In this paper, we study \lambda-biharmonic hypersurfaces in the product space L^{m}\times\mathbb{R}, where L^{m} is an Einstein space and \mathbb{R} is a real line. We prove that \lambda-biharmonic hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature…
We compare Hofer's geometries on two spaces associated with a closed symplectic manifold M. The first space is the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms. The second space L consists of all Lagrangian submanifolds of $M \times M$ which are…
This paper extends, in a sharp way, the famous Efimov's Theorem to immersed ends in $\real^3$. More precisely, let $M$ be a non-compact connected surface with compact boundary. Then there is no complete isometric immersion of $M$ into $\Bbb…
With any (open or closed) cover of a space T we associate certain homotopy classes of maps T into n-spheres. These homotopy invariants can be considered as obstructions for extensions of covers of a subspace A to a space X. We using these…
