The theory of intersection spaces assigns cell complexes to certain stratified topological pseudomanifolds depending on a perversity function in the sense of intersection homology. The main property of the intersection spaces is Poincar\'e…

We consider proper holomorphic maps of ball complements and differences in complex euclidean spaces of dimension at least two. Such maps are always rational, which naturally leads to a related problem of classifying rational maps taking…

We compute the \v{C}ech homotopy groups of the $m$-dimensional infinite earring space $\mathbb{E}_m$, i.e. a shrinking wedge of $m$-spheres. In particular, for all $n,m\geq 2$, we prove that $\check{\pi}_n(\mathbb{E}_m)$ is isomorphic to a…

In this paper we consider the complex vector spaces of holomorphic cross-sections of homogeneous holomorphic vector bundles over elliptic adjoint orbits, and provide a sufficient condition for the vector spaces to be finite dimensional in…

We study the control system of a Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension $n$ rolling on the sphere $S^n$. The controllability of this system is described in terms of the holonomy of a vector bundle connection which, we prove, is isomorphic to…

Rollings of reductive homogeneous spaces are investigated. More precisely, for a reductive homogeneous space $G / H$ with reductive decomposition $\mathfrak{g} = \mathfrak{h} \oplus \mathfrak{m}$, we consider rollings of $\mathfrak{m}$ over…

Considering real spacetime as a Lorentzian fiber in a complex manifold, there is a mismatch of the elementary linear representations of their symmetry groups, the real and complex Poincar\'{e} groups. No spinors are allowed as linear…

For a finitely dominated Poincar\'e duality space $M$, we show how the author's total obstruction to the existence of a Poincar\'e embedding of the diagonal map $M \to M \times M$ relates to the Reidemeister trace of the identity map of…

Suppose $X$ is a smooth affine real variety and $\mathscr{E}$ is a vector bundle over $X$. We analyze the problem of splitting off a free rank one summand from $\mathscr{E}$ in corank $0$ and $1$. The problem in corank $0$ can be viewed as…

In our previous papers [Far East Journal of Mathematical Sciences, 35 (2009), 211-223] and [International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics, 60 (2010), 15-24] we have developed the theory of Weil prolongation, Weil exponentiability…

We prove that the tautological ring of $M_{2,n}^{ct}$, the moduli space of n-pointed genus two curves of compact type, does not have Poincar\'e duality for any $n \geq 8$. This result is obtained via a more general study of the cohomology…

Given a matroid M represented by a linear subspace L in n-space (equivalently by an arrangement of n hyperplanes in L), we define a graded ring R(L) which degenerates to the Stanley-Reisner ring of the broken circuit complex for any choice…

In this paper, we have determined the orbit spaces of free involutions on a finitistic space having mod 2 cohomology of the product of three spheres $\mathbb{S}^n\times \mathbb{S}^m \times \mathbb{S}^l, 1 \leq n \leq m \leq l$. This paper…

We study the Disc-structure space $S^{\rm Disc}_\partial(M)$ of a compact smooth manifold $M$. Informally speaking, this space measures the difference between $M$, together with its diffeomorphisms, and the diagram of ordered framed…

We prove analogues of Ramanujan's Master theorem for the radial sections of the line bundles over the Poincar\'{e} upper half plane $\mathrm{SL}(2, \R)/\mathrm{SO}(2)$ and over the complex hyperbolic spaces $\mathrm {SU}(1, n)/…

The aim of this paper is to generalize the $m-$Segre invariant for vector bundles to coherent systems. Let $X$ be a non-singular irreducible complex projective curve of genus $g$ over $\mathbb{C}$ and $(E,V)$ be a coherent system on $X$ of…

We consider the maximally symmetric $(2,3,5)$-distribution given by the An-Nurowski circle twistor bundle over the product of an An-Nurowski surface and the plane. This circle twistor distribution encodes the configuration space of an…

We construct smooth bundles with base and fiber products of two spheres whose total spaces have non-vanishing $\hat{A}$-genus. We then use these bundles to locate non-trivial rational homotopy groups of spaces of Riemannian metrics with…

We establish an upper bound for the cochain type level of the total space of a pull-back fibration. It explains to us why the numerical invariant for a principal bundle over the sphere are less than or equal to two. Moreover computational…

This paper studies the family of piecewise linear differential systems in the plane with two pieces separated by a switching curve $y=x^{m}$, where $m>1$ is an arbitrary positive. By analysing the first order Melnikov function, we give an…
