Let M be a six dimensional manifold, endowed with a cohomogeneity one action of G= SU_2 x SU_2, and M_reg its subset of regular points. We show that M_reg admits a smooth, 2-parameter family of G-invariant, non-isometric strict nearly…
Consider the configuration spaces of manifold (closed or open). An influential theorem of McDuff and Segal shows that the (co)homology of unordered configuration spaces of open manifold is independent of number of configuration points in a…
Denote by $K_p(n,k)$ the random subgraph of the usual Kneser graph $K(n,k)$ in which edges appear independently, each with probability $p$. Answering a question of Bollob\'as, Narayanan, and Raigorodskii,we show that there is a fixed $p<1$…
We introduce a new one-variable polynomial invariant of graphs, which we call the skew characteristic polynomial. For an oriented simple graph, this is just the characteristic polynomial of its anti-symmetric adjacency matrix. For…
We study stable finiteness of extensions of 2-graph C*-algebras determined by saturated hereditary sets of vertices. We use two iterations of the Pimsner-Voiculescu sequence to calculate the map in K-theory induced by the inclusion of a…
The theory of persistence, which arises from topological data analysis, has been intensively studied in the one-parameter case both theoretically and in its applications. However, its extension to the multi-parameter case raises numerous…
We prove that for certain partially hyperbolic skew-products, non-uniform hyperbolicity along the leaves implies existence of a finite number of ergodic absolutely continuous invariant probability measures which describe the asymptotics of…
In this work, we consider a finitely determined map germ $f$ from $(\mathbb{C}^2,0)$ to $(\mathbb{C}^3,0)$. We characterize the Whitney equisingularity of an unfolding $F=(f_t,t)$ of $f$ through the constancy of a single invariant in the…
We present enumeration results on the number of connected graphs up to 10 vertices for which there is at least one other graph with the same spectrum (a cospectral mate), or at least one other graph with the same Smith normal form…
Let S be a K3 surface and S^[n] the Hilbert scheme of length n subschemes of S. Over the cartesian square of S^[n] there exists a natural reflexive rank 2n-2 coherent sheaf E, which is locally free away from the diagonal. The fiber of E,…
In [MaII] Mather proved that a smooth proper infinitesimally stable map is stable. This result is the key component of the Mather stability theorem [MaV], which can be reformulated as follows: a smooth proper map $f: M\to N$ is stable if…
In this article we discuss cohomological obstructions to two kinds of group stability. In the first part, we show that residually finite groups $\Gamma$ which arise as fundamental groups of compact Riemannian manifolds with strictly…
In this paper we study the existence and regularity of stable manifolds associated to fixed points of parabolic type in the differentiable and analytic cases, using the parametrization method. The parametrization method relies on a suitable…
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…
Given a proper cone $K \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$, a multivariate polynomial $f \in \mathbb{C}[z] = \mathbb{C}[z_1, \ldots, z_n]$ is called $K$-stable if it does not have a root whose vector of the imaginary parts is contained in the interior…
We show that there exists a $2$-dimensional family of smooth cubic threefolds admitting unirational parametrizations of coprime degrees. This together with Clemens--Griffiths' work solves the long standing open problem whether there exists…
We study singularities of constant positive Gaussian curvature surfaces and determine the way they bifurcate in generic 1-parameter families of such surfaces. We construct the bifurcations explicitly using loop group methods. Constant…
We introduce and study a new model that we call the {\em matching model}. Items arrive one by one in a buffer and depart from it as soon as possible but by pairs. The items of a departing pair are said to be {\em matched}. There is a finite…
A well-known property of unordered configuration spaces of points (in an open, connected manifold) is that their homology stabilises as the number of points increases. We generalise this result to moduli spaces of submanifolds of higher…
We study the expanding properties of random perturbations of regular interval maps satisfying the summability condition of exponent one. Under very general conditions on the interval maps and perturbation types, we prove strong stochastic…
