A prism is the product space $\Delta \times I$ where $\Delta$ is a 2-simplex and $I$ is a closed interval. As an analogue of simplicial complexes, we introduce prism complexes and show that every compact $3$-manifold has a prism complex…

It has been proved by Adler that there exists a unique cubic hypersurface X in P^8 which is invariant under the action of the simple group PSL(2,19). In the present note we study the intermediate Jacobian of X and in particular we prove…

Let M be a closed, orientable, irreducible, non-simply connected 3-manifold. We prove that if M admits a sequence of Riemannian metrics whose sectional curvature is locally controlled and whose thick part becomes asymptotically hyperbolic…

We give a surgery formula for the asymptotic behavior of the sequence given by the logarithm of the higher dimensional Reidemeister torsion. Applying the resulting formula to Seifert fibered spaces, we show that the growth of the sequences…

Let M be a closed orientable Seifert fibered 3-manifold with a hyperbolic base 2-orbifold, or equivalently, admitting a geometry modeled on H^2 \times R or the universal cover of SL(2,R). Our main result is that the connected component of…

Given a semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, we can represent invariants of tensor products of fundamental representations of the quantum enveloping algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$ using particular directed graphs called webs. In particular…

We prove that any nonabelian, non-Fuchsian representation of a surface group into PSL(2,R) is the holonomy of a folded hyperbolic structure on the surface. Using similar ideas, we establish that any non-Fuchsian representation rho of a…

In this paper, we explore the spectral representation in Klein space, which is the split $(2,2)$ signature flat spacetime. The Klein space can be foliated into Lorentzian $\mathrm{AdS}_3 /\mathbb{Z}$ slices, and its identity resolution has…

Let $X$ be a non-singular projective threefold over an algebraically closed field of any characteristic, and let $A^2(X)$ be the group of algebraically trivial codimension 2 algebraic cycles on $X$ modulo rational equivalence with…

We show that for every nonelementary representation of a surface group into $SL(2,{\mathbb C})$ there is a Riemann surface structure such that the Higgs bundle associated to the representation lies outside the discriminant locus of the…

The quantum lens spaces form a natural and well-studied class of noncommutative spaces which can be subjected to classification using algebraic invariants by drawing on the fully developed classification theory of unital graph…

The character varieties of representations of a surface group into the Lie groups SL(m,H), SO(2m,H) and Sp(m,m) have a holomorphic description in terms of the moduli space of Higgs bundles. We show that the fibres of the integrable system…

For each connected alternating tangle, we provide an infinite family of non-left-orderable L-spaces. This gives further support for Conjecture [3] of Boyer, Gordon, and Watson that is a rational homology 3-sphere is an L-space if and only…

An irreducible 3--manifold with torus boundary either is a Seifert fibered space or admits at most three lens space fillings according to the Cyclic Surgery Theorem. We examine the sharpness of this theorem by classifying the non-hyperbolic…

We study non-Kaehler manifolds with trivial logarithmic tangent bundle. We show that each such manifold arises as a fiber bundle with a compact complex parallelizable manifold as basis and a toric variety as fiber.

We study the quantum affine superalgebra $U_q(Lsl(M,N))$ and its finite-dimensional representations. We prove a triangular decomposition and establish a system of Poincar\'{e}-Birkhoff-Witt generators for this superalgebra, both in terms of…

Following our approach to metric Lie algebras developed in math.DG/0312243 we propose a way of understanding pseudo-Riemannian symmetric spaces which are not semi-simple. We introduce cohomology sets (called quadratic cohomology) associated…

Let $F$ be a $p$-adic field of characteristic zero and odd residual characteristic. Let $\mathbf{Sp}_{2n}(F)$ denote the symplectic group defined over $F$, where $n\geq 2$. We prove that the Speh representations $\mathcal{U}(\delta,2)$,…

We complete the work started in previous work of the author and Kalfagianni and Sikora, and give a complete description of the $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{C})$-character scheme $\mathcal{X}(M)$ of all small Seifert $3$-manifolds $M$. We find…
