We define a diffeomorphism invariant of smooth 4-manifolds which we can estimate for many smoothings of R^4 and other smooth 4-manifolds. Using this invariant we can show that uncountably many smoothings of R^4 support no Stein structure.…
The paper contains a proof of the Fontaine-Jannsen conjecture based on a crystalline version of the p-adic Poincar'e lemma (different proofs were found earlier by Faltings, Niziol and Tsuji).
We obtain a combinatorial proof that the number of points of the space $\overline{{\mathcal M}_{0,n}}({\mathbb F}_q)$ satisfies the recurrent formula for Poincare polynomials of the space $\overline{{\mathcal M}_{0,n}}({\mathbb C})$.
For a given smooth $2$-knot in $S^4$, we relate the existence of a smooth Seifert hypersurface of a certain class to the existence of irreducible $ SU(2)$-representations of its knot group. For example, we see that any smooth $2$-knot…
We prove a surface embedding theorem for 4-manifolds with good fundamental group in the presence of dual spheres, with no restriction on the normal bundles. The new obstruction is a Kervaire-Milnor invariant for surfaces and we give a…
We discuss the space of sections and certain bisections on a quadric surfaces bundle $X$ over a smooth curve. The Abel-Jacobi from these spaces to the intermediate Jacobian will be shown to be dominant with rationally connected fibers. As…
We study Poincar\'e Duality in the context of abstract 6-functor formalisms. In particular, we give a small and simple list of assumptions that implies Poincar\'e Duality. As an application, we give new uniform (and essentially formal)…
This paper proposes a new notion of smoothness of algebras, termed differential smoothness, that combines the existence of a top form in a differential calculus over an algebra together with a strong version of the Poincar\'e duality…
We prove the Aharoni Berger Conjecture
The Alesker-Poincare pairing for smooth valuations on manifolds is expressed in terms of the Rumin differential operator acting on the cosphere-bundle. It is shown that the derivation operator, the signature operator and the Laplace…
Consider the Poincare disc model for hyperbolic geometry. In this paper, a convenient computational formula is developed along with an aesthetic geometric interpretation. Two proofs, one geometric and one analytical, of each result are…
In relation to the 4-dimensional smooth Poincar\'e conjecture we construct a tentative invariant of homotopy 4-spheres using embedded contact homology (ECH) and Seiberg-Witten theory (SWF). But for good reason it is a constant value…
We settle in the affirmative the Graham-Sloane conjecture.
Using methods of KK-theory, we generalize Poincare duality to the framework of twisted K-theory.
We obtain new partial results supporting the spectral set conjecture in dimension 1.
The formula for the Poincare series of the algebra of invariant of $n$-ary form is found.
This note presents an elementary and direct proof for the convexity of the Choquet integral when the corresponding set function is submodular.
In this paper, we study the differential smoothness of 3-dimensional skew polynomial algebras and diffusion algebras.
We construct an obstruction theory for relative Hilbert schemes in the sense of Behrend-Fantechi and compute it explicitly for relative Hilbert schemes of divisors on smooth projective varieties. In the special case of curves on a surface…
We prove that for $n>3$ each generic simple polytope in $\mathbb{R}^n$ contains a point with at least $2n+4$ emanating normals to the boundary. This result is a piecewise-linear counterpart of a long-standing problem about normals to smooth…
