This paper gives a classification of the topology of vector fields which are nowhere tangent to the fibers of a Seifert fibering.

In this note we consider the problem of determining which Fano manifolds can be realised as fibres of a Mori fibre space. In particular, we study the case of toric varieties, Fano manifolds with high index and some Fano manifolds with high…

Let $I$ be an arbitrary ideal generated by binomials. We show that certain equivalence classes of fibers are associated to any minimal binomial generating set of $I$. We provide a simple and efficient algorithm to compute the indispensable…

In this article, we construct infinitely many (small Seifert fibred, hyperbolic and toroidal) rational homology $3$-spheres that admit co-orientable taut foliations, but none with vanishing Euler class. In the context of the $L$-space…

We provide a geometric characterization of manifolds of dimension 3 with fundamental groups of which all conjugacy classes except 1 are infinite, namely of which the von Neumann algebras are factors of type $II_1$: they are essentially the…

We give examples of closed, oriented 3-manifolds whose fundamental groups are not isomorphic, but yet have the same sets of finite quotient groups; hence the same profinite completions. We also give examples of compact, oriented 3-manifolds…

We construct a finite subgroup of Brauer-Manin obstruction for detecting the existence of integral points on integral models of principle homogeneous spaces of multi-norm tori. Several explicit examples are provided.

In this paper we present an implementation of a computer algorithm that automatically determines the topological structure of spacetime, using a branched covering space representation. This algorithm is applied to a few simple examples in…

We present a condition for towers of fiber bundles which implies that the fundamental group of the total space has a nilpotent subgroup of finite index whose torsion is contained in its center. Moreover, the index of the subgroup can be…

We prove that any mapping torus of a closed 3-manifold has zero simplicial volume. When the fiber is a prime 3-manifold, classification results can be applied to show vanishing of the simplicial volume, however the case of reducible fibers…

We show that if an orientable Seifert fibered space $M$ with an orientable genus $g$ base space admits a strongly irreducible horizontal Heegaard splitting then there is a one-to-one correspondence between isotopy classes of strongly…

In this paper we deal with Seifert fibre spaces, which are compact 3-manifolds admitting a foliation by circles. We give a combinatorial description for these manifolds in all the possible cases: orientable, non-orientable, closed, with…

We prove that 3-dimensional ellipsoids invariant under a 2-torus action contain infinitely many distinct immersed minimal tori, with at most one exception. These minimal tori bifurcate from the 2-torus orbit of largest volume at a dense set…

This article has two purposes. In \cite{R3} (math.KT/0405211) we showed that the FIC (Fibered Isomorphism Conjecture for pseudoisotopy functor) for a particular class of 3-manifolds (we denoted this class by \cal C) is the key to prove the…

We present an algorithm aimed to recognize if a given tensor is a non-identifiable rank-3 tensor.

The main result of this paper asserts that if a Seifert fibered 4-manifold has nonzero Seiberg-Witten invariant, the homotopy class of regular fibers has infinite order. This is a nontrivial obstruction to smooth circle actions; as…

We prove the existence of a new algorithm for 3-sphere recognition based on Groebner basis methods applied to the variety of $\text{\em SL}(2,\C)$-representation of the fundamental group. An essential input is a recent result of the second…

One of the main challenges in 3d-3d correspondence is that no existent approach offers a complete description of 3d $N=2$ SCFT $T[M_3]$ --- or, rather, a "collection of SCFTs" as we refer to it in the paper --- for all types of 3-manifolds…

It is important to have fast and effective methods for simplifying 3-manifold triangulations without losing any topological information. In theory this is difficult: we might need to make a triangulation super-exponentially more complex…

We study tiling spaces in the diffeological context. We prove some basic diffeological properties for tiling spaces and analyze two different fiber bundle structures of tiling spaces over irrational tori. We use the diffeological…
