Let $S$ be a hyperbolic oriented Riemann surface of finite type. The main purpose of this paper is to show that non-trivial geometric intersection between closed curves on $S$ is detected by some symplectic submodules they naturally…

For odd $n$ we construct a path $\rho_t\colon \pi_1(S) \to SL(n,\mathbb{R})$ of discrete, faithful and Zariski dense representations of a surface group such that $\rho_t(\pi_1(S)) \subset SL(n,\mathbb{Q})$ for every $t\in \mathbb{Q}$.

It is known that some theories of class $S$ are actually factorized into multiple decoupled nontrivial four-dimensional $N=2$ theories. We propose a way of constructing examples of this phenomenon using the physics of half-BPS surface…

We prove that there exist infinitely many embedded tori with a common geometric dual in $T^4\#(S^2\times S^2)$ that are homotopic, diffeomorphic, but not isotopic to each other, even after arbitrary many external stabilizations. These…

This is a preliminary note on a family of minimal surfaces in the 3-sphere defined by a compatible fourth order equation. The minimal surfaces are geometrically characterized either by having a surface of revolution like induced metric, or…

Isometric class of minimal surfaces in the Euclidean 3-space $\mathbb{R}^3$ has the rigidity: if two simply connected minimal surfaces are isometric, then one of them is congruent to a surface in the specific one-parameter family, called…

We construct a surface with irregularity $q=2,$ geometric genus $p_g=3,$ self-intersection of the canonical divisor $K^2=16$ and canonical map of degree $16.$

Let $X$ be a simple normal crossing (SNC) compact complex surface with trivial canonical bundle which includes triple intersections. We prove that if $X$ is $d$-semistable, then there exists a family of smoothings in a differential…

Let T -> S be a finite flat morphism of degree two between regular integral schemes of dimension at most two (and with 2 invertible), having regular branch divisor D. We establish a bijection between Azumaya quaternion algebras on T and…

We develop a fully explicit framework for constructing Scherk-type minimal graphs over the Pitot quadrilaterals (i.e. such that the two pairs of opposite sides have the same total length). For any Pitot quadrilateral \(Q\), we first produce…

Given a manifold with corners $X$, we associates to it the corner structure simplicial complex $\Sigma_X$. Its reduced K-homology is isomorphic to the K-theory of the $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{K}_b(X)$ of b-compact operators on $X$. Moreover,…

We prove that for each sufficiently complicated orientable surface $S$, there exists an infinite image linear representation $\rho$ of $\pi_1(S)$ such that if $\gamma\in\pi_1(S)$ is freely homotopic to a simple closed curve on $S$, then…

Let S be an immersed horizontal surface in a 3-dimensional graph manifold. We show that the fundamental group of the surface S is quadratically distorted whenever the surface is virtually embedded (i.e., separable) and is exponentially…

In this paper we show that there exist simply connected symplectic 4-manifolds which contain infinitely many knotted lagrangian tori, i.e. lagrangian embeddings of tori that are homotopic but not isotopic. Moreover, the homology class they…

In this paper we are interested in the stratum H^{hyp}(4) of translation surfaces, which consists of pairs (M,\omega), where M is a hyper-elliptic Riemann surface of genus 3, and \omega is a holopmorphic 1-form on M having only one zero. We…

We construct stable minimal hypersurfaces with simple topology in certain compact $4$-manifolds $X$ with boundary, where $X$ embeds into a smooth manifold homeomorphic to $S^4$. For example, if $X$ is equipped with a Riemannian metric $g$…

We study certain equivariant deformation components of minimally elliptic surface singularities under finite group actions. Interesting examples include cyclic quotients of simple elliptic singularities and finite group quotients of cusp…

We give an alternative argument for the classification of real bundle pairs over smooth symmetric surfaces and extend this classification to nodal symmetric surfaces. We also classify the homotopy classes of automorphisms of real bundle…

Assume that a finite almost simple group with simple socle isomorphic to an exceptional group of Lie type possesses a solvable Hall subgroup. Then there exist four conjugates of the subgroup such that their intersection is trivial.

We deform monomial space curves in order to construct examples of set-theoretical complete intersection space curve singularities. As a by-product we describe an inverse to Herzog's construction of minimal generators of non-complete…
