We write out some sequences of linear maps of vector spaces with fixed bases. Each term of a sequence is a linear space of differentials of metric values ascribed to the elements of a simplicial complex - a triangulation of a manifold. If…

A prism is the product space $\Delta \times I$ where $\Delta$ is a 2-simplex and $I$ is a closed interval. As an analogue of simplicial complexes, we introduce prism complexes and show that every compact $3$-manifold has a prism complex…

A general position map $f:K\to M$ of a $k$-dimensional simplicial complex to a $2k$-dimensional manifold (for $k=1$, of a graph to a surface) is a $\mathbb Z_2$-embedding if $|f\sigma \cap f\tau|$ is even for any non-adjacent $k$-faces…

We consider the question of the largest possible combinatorial diameter among $(d-1)$-dimensional simplicial complexes on $n$ vertices, denoted $H_s(n, d)$. Using a probabilistic construction we give a new lower bound on $H_s(n, d)$ that is…

We present some results dealing with the local geometry of almost complex manifolds. We establish mainly the complete hyperbolicity of strictly pseudoconvex domains, the extension of plurisubharmonic functions through generic submanifolds…

We propose a computation of curvature of arbitrary two-dimensional surfaces of three-dimensional objects, which is a contribution to discrete gravity with potential applications in network geometry. We begin by linking each point of the…

Characterizing face-number-related invariants of a given class of simplicial complexes has been a central topic in combinatorial topology. In this regard, one of the well-known invariants is $g_2$. Let $K$ be a normal $3$-pseudomanifold…

Building on Whitney's classical method of triangulating smooth manifolds, we show that every compact $d$-dimensional smooth manifold admits a triangulation with dual graph of twin-width at most $d^{O(d)}$. In particular, it follows that…

Abstract deformations of the CR structure of a compact strictly pseudoconvex hypersurface $M$ in $\mathbb{C}^2$ are encoded by complex functions on $M$. In sharp contrast with the higher dimensional case, the natural integrability condition…

We show that any point in the convex hull of each of (d+1) sets of (d+1) points in general position in \R^d is contained in at least (d+1)^2/2 simplices with one vertex from each set. This improves the known lower bounds for all d >= 4.

We consider the space of embeddings of finitely many circles that bound disks in non-positively curved surfaces. We index the connected components of this space with finite rooted trees and show that the connected components are classifying…

Given an irreducible contractible open 3-manifold W which is not homeomorphic to R^3, there is an associated simplicial complex S(W), the complex of end reductions of W. Whenever W covers a 3-manifold M one has that the fundamental group of…

A map $f\colon K\to \mathbb R^d$ of a simplicial complex is an almost embedding if $f(\sigma)\cap f(\tau)=\emptyset$ whenever $\sigma,\tau$ are disjoint simplices of $K$. Theorem. Fix integers $d,k\ge2$ such that $d=\frac{3k}2+1$. (a)…

This paper builds one-cusped complex hyperbolic $2$-manifolds by an explicit geometric construction. Specifically, for each odd $d \ge 1$ there is a smooth projective surface $Z_d$ with $c_1^2(Z_d) = c_2(Z_d) = 6d$ and a smooth irreducible…

In this exploration paper, we design algorithms for deforming and contracting a simply connected discrete closed manifold to a discrete sphere. Such a contraction is a kind of shrinking or reducing process. In our algorithms, we need to…

We classify terminal simplicial reflexive d-polytopes with 3d-1 vertices. They turn out to be smooth Fano d-polytopes. When d is even there is 1 such polytope up to isomorphism, while there are 2 when d is uneven.

We consider compact K\"ahlerian manifolds $X$ of even dimension 4 or more, endowed with a log-symplectic structure $\Phi$, a generically nondegenerate closed 2-form with simple poles on a divisor $D$ with local normal crossings. A simple…

We examine properties of equidistant sets determined by nonempty disjoint compact subsets of a compact 2-dimensional Alexandrov space (of curvature bounded below). The work here generalizes many of the known results for equidistant sets…

In a small simply-connected closed 4-manifold, we construct infinitely many pairs of exotic codimension-$1$ submanifolds with diffeomorphic complements that remain exotic after any number of stabilizations by $ S^2 \times S^2$. We also give…

We show that every smooth closed oriented four-manifold admits a decomposition into two co- dimension zero submanifolds with common boundary. Each of these submanifolds carries a structure of a symplectic manifold with pseudo-convex…
