In this article we describe relations of the topology of closed 1-forms to the group theoretic invariants of Bieri-Neumann-Strebel-Renz. Starting with a survey, we extend these Sigma invariants to finite CW- complexes and show that many…
We define higher genus Gromov-Witten invariants and establish a mathematical theory of sigma model coupled with gravity over any semi-positive symplectic manifolds. As applications, we verify the stablizing conjecture of symplectic…
Iterative construction of a Sierpinski carpet or sponge is shown to be a critical phenomenon analogous to uncorrelated percolation. Critical exponents are derived or calculated (by random walks over the carpet or sponge at infinite…
For a branched cover between two closed orientable surfaces, the Riemann-Hurwitz formula relates the Euler characteristics of the surfaces, the total degree of the cover, and the total length of the partitions of the degree given by the…
We study the join-semilattice of constructibility real degrees in the side-by-side Sacks model, the model of set theory obtained by forcing with a countable-support product of infinitely many Sacks forcings over the constructible universe.…
We study the topological invariant $\phi$ of Kwieci\'nski and Tworzewski, particularly beyond the case of mappings with smooth targets. We derive a lower bound for $\phi$ of a general mapping, which is similarly effective as the upper bound…
The {\it Sierpi\'nski fractal} or {\it Sierpi\'nski gasket} $\Sigma$ is a familiar object studied by specialists in dynamical systems and probability. In this paper, we consider a graph $S_n$ derived from the first $n$ iterations of the…
A {\em slab} (or plank) of width $w$ is a part of the $d$-dimensional space that lies between two parallel hyperplanes at distance $w$ from each other. It is conjectured that any slabs $S_1, S_2,\ldots$ whose total width is divergent have…
We establish a relationship between a certain notion of covering complexity of a Riemannian spin manifold and positive lower bounds on its scalar curvature. This makes use of a pairing between quantitative operator $K$-theory and Lipschitz…
It is shown that the notion of W_\infty-algebra originally carried out over a (compact) Riemann surface can be extended to n complex dimensional (compact) manifolds within a symplectic geometrical setup. The relationships with the…
Recently it has been proved that, assuming that there is an almost disjoint family of cardinality (2^{\mathfrak c}) in (\mathfrak c) (which is assured, for instance, by either Martin's Axiom, or CH, or even $2^{<\mathfrak c=\mathfrak c$})…
Dimensional types of metric scattered spaces are investigated. Revised proofs of Mazurkiewicz-Sierpi\'nski and Knaster-Urbanik theorems are presented. Embeddable properties of countable metric spaces are generalized onto uncountable metric…
Some ball-quotient orbifolds are related by covering maps. We exploit these coverings to find infinite towers of orbifolds uniformized by the complex 2-ball and some orbifolds over K3 surfaces uniformized by the 2-ball. Corresponding…
We study the relationship between partial map classifiers, Sierpi\'nski cones, and axioms for synthetic higher categories and domains within univalent foundations. In particular, we show that synthetic $\infty$-categories are closed under…
Given positive integers $n,k$ with $k\leq n$, we consider the number of ways of choosing $k$ subsets of $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ in such a way that the union of these subsets gives $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ and they are not subsets of each other. We refer…
Following a line of research initiated in \cite{BBNN}, I describe a general framework for turning reduction concepts of relative computability into diagrams forming an analogy with the Cicho\'n diagram for cardinal characteristics of the…
In this note we consider two topics involving the relationship between the symplectic capacity and the mean width of convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$. We first describe an alternative path from the symplectic Brunn-Minkowski inequality of…
We give a level-by-level analysis of the Weak Vop\v{e}nka Principle for definable classes of relational structures (WVP), in accordance with the complexity of their definition, and we determine the large-cardinal strength of each level.…
In this paper we generalize, for any dimension, a theorem of Tshishiku and Walsh that characterizes the Sierpi\'nski carpet as a limit set of maps from the disc to the sphere.
We introduce and investigate the notion of a $\mathbb Z$-graded covering for a supermanifold. More precisely, Donagi and Witten suggested a construction of the first obstruction class for splitting of a supermanifold via differential…
