An updated proof of a 1933 theorem of Goeritz, exhibiting a finite set of generators for the group of automorphisms of the 3-sphere that preserve a genus two Heegaard splitting. The group is analyzed via its action on a certain connected…
We consider the problem of reconstructing a compact 3-manifold (with boundary) embedded in $\mathbb{R}^3$ from its cross-sections $\mathcal S$ with a given set of cutting planes $\mathcal P$ having arbitrary orientations. Using the obvious…
We prove that there is an algorithm to determine if a given finite graph is an induced subgraph of a given curve graph.
In this paper the number of ways to glue a surface of genus $g$ has been investigated. We've proven formulas for the number of gluings sphere from three polygons and from two bicolored polygons. Moreover, we've given a new proofs on the…
If a (cusped) surface S admits an ideal triangulation T with no shears, we show an efficient algorithm to give S as a quotient of hypebolic plane by a subgroup of PSL(2, Z). The algorithm runs in time O(n log n), where n is the number of…
We study trivalent graphs in $S^{3}$ whose closed complement is a genus two handlebody. We show that such a graph, when put in thin position, has a simple (i. e. non-loop) level edge.
In this article we study the spectrum of totally geodesic surfaces of a finite volume hyperbolic 3-manifold. We show that for arithmetic hyperbolic 3-manifolds that contain a totally geodesic surface, this spectrum determines the…
We study finite order invariants of null-homotopic immersions of a closed orientable surface into an aspherical orientable 3-manifold. We give the foundational constructions, and classify all order one invariants.
For several embedded surfaces with zero self-intersection number in 4-manifolds, we show that an adjunction-type genus bound holds for at least one of the surfaces under certain conditions. For example, we derive certain adjunction…
We introduce a new class of possibly noncompact n-dimensional manifolds without boundary associated to finite data which we call topological automata. This class is large enough to contain many interesting examples of open 2-dimensional and…
In this paper we discuss two different existing algorithms for computing topological entropy and we perform one of them in order to compute the isentropes for cubic polynomials.
Given a smooth map $f:M\rightarrow N$ of closed oriented smooth manifolds, is there an immersion homotopic to $f$? We provide an algorithm that decides this when the codimension of the manifolds is odd.
Genus 5 curves can be hyperelliptic, trigonal, or non-hyperelliptic non-trigonal, whose model is a complete intersection of three quadrics in $\mathbb{P}^4$. We present and explain algorithms we used to determine, up to isomorphism over…
We consider the problem of finding embedded closed geodesics on the two-sphere with an incomplete metric defined outside a point. Various techniques including curve shortening methods are used.
We show that there are algorithms to determine if a 3-manifold contains an essential lamination or a Reebless foliation.
We describe an algorithm that constructs a list of all topological types of holomorphic actions of a finite group on a compact Riemann surface $C$ of genus at least $g \geq 2$ with $C/G \cong \mathbb{P}^1$.
Motivated by the need for efficient isomorphism tests for finite groups, we present a polynomial-time method for deciding isomorphism within a class of groups that is well-suited to studying local properties of general finite groups. We…
This paper examines the relationship between the knotting of an embedded surface in $\R^3$ and the knotting of its fold curves, formed by the singular set of projection to a plane. The first result shows that every surface, no matter how…
The purpose of this paper is to present some results on the existence of homologous, nonisotopic symplectic or lagrangian surfaces embedded in a simply connected symplectic 4-dimensional manifold.
We calculate the automorphism group of the Kummer surface associated with a curve of genus 2 or the product of two elliptic curves in characteristic two under the assumption that the Kummer surface is a $K3$ surface. Moreover we discuss the…
