We introduce the class $\Sigma_k(d)$ of $k$-stellated (combinatorial) spheres of dimension $d$ ($0 \leq k \leq d + 1$) and compare and contrast it with the class ${\cal S}_k(d)$ ($0 \leq k \leq d$) of $k$-stacked homology $d$-spheres. We…

Let n be aninteger>4. There is a smoothly knotted n-dimensional sphere in (n+2)-space such that the singular point set of its projection in (n+1)-space consists of double points and that the components of the singular point set are two.…

Orbit recovery is a central problem in both mathematics and applied sciences, with important applications to structural biology. This paper focuses on recovering generic orbits of functions on ${\mathbb R}^{n}$ and the sphere $S^{n-1}$…

In 1992 Thomas Bier presented a strikingly simple method to produce a huge number of simplicial (n-2)-spheres on 2n vertices as deleted joins of a simplicial complex on n vertices with its combinatorial Alexander dual. Here we interpret his…

We consider the operation to crush a subset of a manifold to one-point when the result of the crushing also be a manifold. Then the Poincare conjecture is split to two problems; for any closed orientable 3-manifold which is not homeomorphic…

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…

The present paper shows that for a given integer k greater than 2 it is possible to construct an at least k-differentiable Riemannian metric on the sphere of a certain dimension such that the cut locus of a point of it becomes a fractal.…

Choice of an appropriate (3+1)-foliation of spacetime or a (2+1)-foliation of the Cauchy space, leads often to a substantial simplification of various mathematical problems in General Relativity Theory. We propose a new method to construct…

Building on Greene's changemaker lattices, we develop a lattice embedding obstruction to realizing an L-space bounding a definite 4-manifold as integer surgery on a knot in the Poincar\'e homology sphere. As the motivating application, we…

Given a spherical fibration $\xi$ over the classifying space $BG$ of a finite group we define a dimension function for the $m-$fold fiber join of $\xi$ where $m$ is some large positive integer. We show that the dimension functions satisfy…

The stratum $\mathcal{H}(a,-b_{1},\dots,-b_{p})$ of meromorphic $1$-forms with a zero of order $a$ and poles of orders $b_{1},\dots,b_{p}$ on the Riemann sphere has a map, the isoresidual fibration, defined by assigning to any differential…

We provide a topological duality resolution for the spectrum $E_2^{h\mathbb{S}_2^1}$, which itself can be used to build the $K(2)$-local sphere. The resolution is built from spectra of the form $E_2^{hF}$ where $E_2$ is the Morava spectrum…

The spaces of triangulations of a given manifold have been widely studied. The celebrated theorem of Pachner~\cite{Pachner} says that any two triangulations of a given manifold can be connected by a sequence of bistellar moves, or Pachner…

We introduce a spherical variant of Milnor's classifying construction for diffeological groups, based on quadratic normalization of barycentric coordinates. This construction gives rise to a contractible diffeological space endowed with…

We prove that the inertia groups of all sufficiently-connected, high-dimensional $(2n)$-manifolds are trivial. This is a key step toward a general classification of manifolds in the metastable range. Specifically, for $m \gg 0$ and…

In this paper, we obtain several new intrinsic and extrinsic differential sphere theorems via Ricci flow. For intrinsic case, we show that a closed simply connected $n(\ge 4)$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$ is diffeomorphic to $S^n$ if…

We extend the classical theory of sphere theorems to the transverse geometry of Riemannian foliations. In this setting, we establish transverse analogues of the Grove-Shiohama diameter sphere theorem and of the Berger-Klingenberg…

We develop a method for constructing standard complexes which turns easy the calculation of their algebraic invariants and, as well, the precise evaluation of whether these complexes are embeddable or not in a 3-manifold. This method…

We describe the construction of the slice fibration of a given one.

Let M(d,n) be the moduli stack of hypersurfaces of degree d > n in the complex projective n-space, and let M(d,n;1) be the sub-stack, parameterizing hypersurfaces obtained as a d fold cyclic covering of the projective n-1 space, ramified…
