For a smooth, closed $n$-manifold $M$, we define an upper semi-continuous integer-valued complexity function on $H^1(M;{\mathbb R})$ using Morse theory. This measures how far an integral class is from being a fiber of a fibration. The fact…
We study contact 3-manifolds using the techniques of sub-Riemannian geometry and geometric measure theory, in particular establishing properties of their Lipschitz homotopy groups. We prove a biLipschitz version of the Theorem of Darboux: a…
Let M be a 4-manifold with residually finite fundamental group G having b_1(G) > 0. Assume that M carries a symplectic structure with trivial canonical class K = 0 in H^2(M). Using a theorem of Bauer and Li, together with some classical…
Surgery obstruction of a normal map to a simple Poincare pair $(X,Y)$ lies in the relative surgery obstruction group $L_*(\pi_1(Y)\to\pi_1(X))$. A well known result of Wall, the so called $\pi$-$\pi$ theorem, states that in higher…
The result of this paper is the determination of the cohomology of Artin groups of type A_n, B_n and \tilde{A}_{n} with non-trivial local coefficients. The main result is an explicit computation of the cohomology of the Artin group of type…
In this article, we prove the algebraic counterpart of the topological results $H^1(S^1, \mathbb{Z}) \cong \mathbb{Z}$ and $H^1(S^2, \mathbb{Z}) \cong \{0\}$. We also see that a non-trivial element of the algebraic cohomotopy groups of…
A Generalized Inoue--Bombieri (GIB) manifold $M$ is a compact quotient of a connected Riemannian product $\mathbb{R}^q \times (N,g _N)$ by a discrete subgroup of $\mathrm{Sim}(\mathbb{R}^q) \times \mathrm{Isom}(N,g_N)$. The flat factor…
A topological space $X$ is Baire if the Baire Category Theorem holds for $X$, i.e., the intersection of any sequence of open dense subsets of $X$ is dense in $X$. One of the interesting problems for the space $B_1(X)$ of all Baire-one…
We shall prove a new non-vanishing theorem for the stable cohomotopy Seiberg-Witten invariant of connected sums of 4-manifolds with positive first Betti number. The non-vanishing theorem enables us to find many new examples of 4-manifolds…
In 1955, Lehto showed that, for every measurable function $\psi$ on the unit circle $\mathbb T,$ there is a function $f$ holomorphic in the unit disc, having $\psi$ as radial limit a.e. on $\mathbb T.$ We consider an analogous problem for…
A unique classification of the topological effects associated to quantum mechanics on manifolds is obtained on the basis of the invariance under diffeomorphisms and the realization of the Lie-Rinehart relations between the generators of the…
Continuing work begin in arXiv:1910.12609, we interpret the Hurewicz homomorphism for Baker and Richter's noncommutative complex cobordism spectrum $M\xi$ in terms of characteristic numbers (indexed by quasi-symmetric functions) for…
We consider coefficient bodies $\mathcal M_n$ for univalent functions. Based on the L\"owner-Kufarev parametric representation we get a partially integrable Hamiltonian system in which the first integrals are Kirillov's operators for a…
A basilar property and a useful tool in the theory of Sobolev spaces is the density of smooth compactly supported functions in the space $W^{k,p}(\R^n)$ (i.e. the functions with weak derivatives of orders $0$ to $k$ in $L^p$). On Riemannian…
Let $B$ be a M\"obius band and $f:B \to \mathbb{R}$ be a Morse map taking a constant value on $\partial B$, and $\mathcal{S}(f,\partial B)$ be the group of diffeomorphisms $h$ of $B$ fixed on $\partial B$ and preserving $f$ in the sense…
In this paper we study the Lie theoretic properties of a class of topological groups which carry a Banach manifold structure but whose multiplication is not smooth. If $G$ and $N$ are Banach-Lie groups and $\pi : G \to \mathrm{Aut}(N)$ is a…
Let $M$ be a quantizable symplectic manifold acted on by $T=(S^1)^r$ in a Hamiltonian fashion and $J$ a moment map for this action. Suppose that the set $M^{T}$ of fixed points is discrete and denote by ${\alpha}_{pj}\in{\mathbb Z}^r$ the…
We construct the non-compact Calabi-Yau manifolds interpreted as the complex line bundles over the Hermitian symmetric spaces. These manifolds are the various generalizations of the complex line bundle over CP^{N-1}. Imposing an F-term…
Given a closed $n$-manifold, we consider the set of simple homotopy types of $n$-manifolds within its homotopy type, called its simple homotopy manifold set. We characterise it in terms of algebraic K-theory, the surgery obstruction map,…
