The paper is devoted to the study of topological properties, structure and classification of Morse flows with fixed points on the boundary of three-dimensional manifolds. We construct a complete topological invariant of a Morse flow,…

Let $f:T^2\to \mathbb{R}$ be Morse function on $2$-torus $T^2,$ and $\mathcal{O}(f)$ be the orbit of $f$ with respect to the right action of the group of diffeomorphisms $\mathcal{D}(T^2)$ on $C^{\infty}(T^2)$. Let also $\mathcal{O}_f(f,X)$…

Consider pairs of the form (G, N), with G a group and N \normal G, as objects of a category \PG. A morphism (G_1, N_1) \To (G_2, N_2) will be a group homomorphism f : G_1 \To G_2 such that f(N_1) \subset N_2. We introduce a functor Q : \PG…

We give continued fraction algorithms for a particular class of Fuchsian triangle groups. In particular, we give an explicit form of each such group that is a subgroup of the Hilbert modular group of its trace field and provide an interval…

The theory of Morse functions and their higher dimensional versions or fold maps on manifolds and its application to geometric theory of manifolds is one of important branches of geometry and mathematics. Studies related to this was started…

In this article we study two "strong" topologies for spaces of smooth functions from a finite-dimensional manifold to a (possibly infinite-dimensional) manifold modeled on a locally convex space. Namely, we construct Whitney type topologies…

For a residually finite group $G$, its normal subgroups $G\supset G_1\supset G_2\cdots$ with $\cap_{n\in\mathbb N}G_n=\{e\}$ and for a growth function $\gamma$ we construct a unitary representation $\pi_\gamma$ of $G$. For the minimal…

Let $M$ be a smooth ($C^{\infty}$) manifold, $F_1,...,F_n$ be vector fields on $M$ generating the corresponding flows $\Phi_1,...,\Phi_n$, and $\alpha_1,...,\alpha_{n}:M\to \mathbb{R}$ smooth functions. Define the following map $f:M\to M$…

The goal of this paper is to classify pairs of Morse functions in general position modulo the action of different groups.In particular, we obtain the classification of generic pairs of Morse functions, with or without target…

We study how to obtain partial matchings using the block function $\mathcal{M}_f$, induced by a morphism $f$ between persistence modules. $\mathcal{M}_f$ is defined algebraically and is linear with respect to direct sums of morphisms. We…

We propose a new notion called \emph{infinity-harmonic maps}between Riemannain manifolds. These are natural generalizations of the well known notion of infinity harmonic functions and are also the limiting case of $p$% -harmonic maps as…

Let a finitely generated group $G$ split as a graph of groups. If edge groups are undistorted and do not contribute to the Morse boundary $\partial_MG$, we show that every connected component of $\partial_MG$ with at least two points…

Let $G$ be a discrete group and let $\mathcal A$ and $\mathcal B$ be two subgroups of $G$-valued continuous functions defined on two $0$-dimensional compact spaces $X$ and $Y$. A group isomorphism $H$ defined between $\mathcal A$ and…

Let $G$ be a connected compact Lie group, and let $M$ be a connected Hamiltonian $G$-manifold with equivariant moment map $\phi$. We prove that if there is a simply connected orbit $G\cdot x$, then $\pi_1(M)\cong\pi_1(M/G)$; if additionally…

In [2], N.Dutertre and T. Fukui used Viro's integral calculus to study the topology of stable maps $f:M\rightarrow N$ between two smooth manifolds $M$ and $N$. They also discussed several applications to Morin maps. In particular, in…

Let p: M -> B be a family of compact manifolds equipped with a unitarily flat vector bundle F -> M. We generalize Igusa's higher Franz-Reidemeister torsion \tau(M/B;F) to the case that the fibre-wise cohomology H^*(M/B;F) -> B carries a…

We introduce a new notion of persistence modules endowed with operators. It encapsulates the additional structure on Floer-type persistence modules coming from the intersection product with classes in the ambient (quantum) homology, along…

For a given group $G$ the orientably regular maps with orientation-preserving automorphism group $G$ are used as the vertices of a graph $\O(G)$, with undirected and directed edges showing the effect of duality and hole operations on these…
