We classify all sets of nonzero vectors in $\mathbb{R}^3$ such that the angle formed by each pair is a rational multiple of $\pi$. The special case of four-element subsets lets us classify all tetrahedra whose dihedral angles are multiples…
We show that the group of smooth homotopy $7$-spheres acts freely on the set of smooth manifold structures on a topological manifold $M$ which is homotopy equivalent to the real projective $7$-space. We classify, up to diffeomorphism, all…
We investigate a question of Cooper adjacent to the Virtual Haken Conjecture. Assuming certain conjectures in number theory, we show that there exist hyperbolic rational homology 3-spheres with arbitrarily large injectivity radius. These…
Let $\MS_g$ be the moduli space of stable holomorphic vector bundles of rank 2 and fixed determinant of odd degree over a smooth complex projective curve of genus $g$. This paper proves various properties of the rational cohomology ring…
We compute the cohomology ring of a generalised type of configuration space of points in $\mathbb{R}^r$. This configuration space is indexed by a graph. In the case the graph is complete the result is known and it is due to Arnold and…
We show exceptionality of certain families of non-quasismooth weighted hypersurfaces. In particular these admit K\"ahler-Einstein metrics. Our examples are produced by the monomials generating the complex deformations of orbifolds whose…
We provide examples of homogeneous spaces which are neither symmetric spaces nor real cohomology spheres, yet have the property that every invariant metric is geometrically formal. We also extend the known obstructions to geometric…
We prove that singular Riemannian foliations in Euclidean spheres can be defined by polynomial equations.
We prove the existence of exotic but homotopically trivial contact structures on spheres of dimension 8k-1. Together with previous results of Eliashberg and the second author this establishes the existence of such structures on all…
We describe the equivariant cohomology ring of rationally smooth projective embeddings of reductive groups. These embeddings are the projectivizations of reductive monoids. Our main result describes their equivariant cohomology in terms of…
We consider the rational vector space generated by all rational homology spheres up to orientation-preserving homeomorphism, and the filtration defined on this space by Lagrangian-preserving rational homology handlebody replacements. We…
We determine the ring structure of the loop homology of some global quotient orbifolds. We can compute by our theorem the loop homology ring with suitable coefficients of the global quotient orbifolds of the form $[M/G]$ for $M$ being some…
We consider numerical semigroups associated with normal weighted homogeneous surface singularities with rational homology sphere links. We say that a semigroup is representable if it can be realized in this way. In this article, we study…
We prove that the quantum cohomology ring of any minuscule or cominuscule homogeneous space, specialized at q=1, is semisimple. This implies that complex conjugation defines an algebra automorphism of the quantum cohomology ring localized…
A bicirculant is a regular graph that admits a semi-regular automorphism with two vertex-orbits of the same size. By $m$ we denote the size of vertex-orbits and by $d$ the valence of a bicirculant. Furthermore, we denote by $s$ the valence…
In this brief note, we show that there exist smooth 4-manifolds (with nonempty boundary) containing pairs of exotically knotted 2-spheres that remain exotic after one (either external or internal) stabilization. It follows that the ``one is…
S. L. Woronowicz's theory of introducing C*-algebras generated by unbounded elements is applied to q-normal operators satisfying the defining relation of the quantum complex plane. The unique non-degenerate C*-algebra of bounded operators…
Montgomery-Yang problem predicts that every pseudofree differentiable circle action on the 5-dimensional sphere has at most 3 non-free orbits. Using a certain one-to-one correspondence, Koll\'ar formulated the algebraic version of the…
The minimal projective bimodule resolutions of the exterior algebras are explicitly constructed. They are applied to calculate the Hochschild (co)homology of the exterior algebras. Thus the cyclic homology of the exterior algebras can be…
We prove that the Steinberg module of the special linear group of a quadratic imaginary number ring which is not Euclidean is not generated by integral apartments. Assuming the generalized Riemann hypothesis, this shows that the Steinberg…
