We prove that for every three-dimensional vector field, either it can be accumulated by Morse-Smale ones, or it can be accumulated by ones with a transverse homoclinic intersection of some hyperbolic periodic orbit in the $C^1$ topology.

The vector field problem is an important and classical problem in differential topology. In this survey we shall consider the vector field problem focusing mainly on the class of compact homogeneous spaces.

In this paper, we present a constructive and proof-relevant development of graph theory, including the notion of maps, their faces, and maps of graphs embedded in the sphere, in homotopy type theory. This allows us to provide an elementary…

It is known that the existence of localization with respect to an arbitrary (possibly proper) class of maps in the category of simplicial sets is implied by a large-cardinal axiom called Vopenka's principle.In this article we extend the…

A Yamabe soliton is considered on an almost contact complex Riemannian manifold (also known as an almost contact B-metric manifold) which is obtained by a contact conformal transformation of the Reeb vector field, its dual contact 1-form,…

Let A be an essential complex hyperplane arrangement in an n-dimensional complex vector space V. Let H denote the union of the hyperplanes, and M denote the complement to H in V. We develop the real-valued and circle-valued Morse theory for…

Let U be a unipotent group over the field of complex numbers C, acting on a complex algebraic variety X. Assume that there exists a surjective morphism of complex algebraic varieties f: X --> Y whose fibres are orbits of U. We show that if…

It was conjectured by Goyal, Shukla and Singh that the independence complex of the categorical product $K_2\times K_3\times K_n$ has the homotopy type of a wedge of $(n-1)(3n-2)$ spheres of dimension $3$. Here we prove this conjecture by…

It is proved that any polynomial vector field in two complex variables which is complete on a non-algebraic trajectory is complete.

We introduce a notion of ``$n$-dual'' to a simplicial vector space for $n\ge 0$. Coming with it, there is a canonical pairing, which we show to be non-degenerate up to homotopy for homotopy $n$-types. As a result this notion of duality is…

We introduce several homotopy equivalence relations for proper holomorphic mappings between balls. We provide examples showing that the degree of a rational proper mapping between balls (in positive codimension) is not a homotopy invariant.…

Let W be a planar 3-web defined on a neighborhood of a point M. We call "symmetry of W around M" any local diffeomorphism which fixes M and maps each foliation of W to a (not necessarily the same) foliation of W. We say that it is a simple…

We show that if a link J in the 3-sphere is homotopy ribbon concordant to a link L then the Alexander polynomial of L divides the Alexander polynomial of J.

We study homotopy properties of regular mappings from spheres into a real retract rational variety $Y$. We show that the homotopy classes which are represented by such mappings form subgroups of the homotopy groups of $Y$, and that the…

The complement of the codimension 2 complex coordinate subspace arrangement is shown to be homotopy equivalent to a wedge of spheres.

For a closed oriented 3-manifold $Y$ we define $n(Y)$ to be the minimal non-negative number such that in each homotopy class of non-singular vector fields of $Y$ there is a Morse-Smale vector field with less or equal to $n(Y)$ periodic…

A map $f:X\to Y$ to a simplicial complex $Y$ is called a $Y$-triangular homotopy equivalence if it has a homotopy inverse $g$ and homotopies $h_1:f\circ g\simeq \mathrm{id}_Y$, $h_2:g\circ f\simeq \mathrm{id}_X$ such that for all simplices…

We establish a loop space decomposition for certain $CW$-complexes with a single top cell in the presence of a spherical pair, thereby generalizing several known decompositions of Poincar\'{e} duality complexes in which a loop of a product…

A (complete) matching of the cells of a triangulated manifold can be thought as a combinatorial or discrete version of a nonsingular vector field. We give several methods for constructing such matchings.

We introduce the concept of a homotopy motion of a subset in a manifold, and give a systematic study of homotopy motions of surfaces in closed orientable 3-manifolds. This notion arises from various natural problems in 3-manifold theory…
