In earlier work, we constructed counterexamples to Lagrangian Poincar\'e recurrence for many toric symplectic four manifolds. Here we provide a few more examples extending the family of counterexamples to include all non-monotone toric…

I point out some very elementary examples of special Lagrangian tori in certain Calabi-Yau manifolds that occur as hypersurfaces in complex projective space. All of these are constructed as real slices of smooth hypersurfaces defined over…

We call complex quasifold of dimension k a space that is locally isomorphic to the quotient of an open subset of the space C^k by the holomorphic action of a discrete group; the analogue of a complex torus in this setting is called a…

This paper introduces the notion of twisted toric manifolds which is a generalization of one of symplectic toric manifolds, and proves the weak Delzant type classification theorem for them. The computation methods for their fundamental…

It is introduced a differentiable manifold with almost contact 3-structure which consists of an almost contact metric structure and two almost contact B-metric structures. The product of this manifold and a real line is an almost…

The polytopic definition introduced recently describing the topology of manifolds is used to formulate a generating function pertinent to its topological properties. In particular, a polynomial in terms of one variable and a tori underlying…

The {\it torus manifolds} have been defined and studied by M. Masuda and T. Panov (arXiv:math.AT/0306100) who in particular describe its cohomology ring structure. In this note we shall describe the topological $K$-ring of a class of torus…

Some ball-quotient orbifolds are related by covering maps. We exploit these coverings to find infinite towers of orbifolds uniformized by the complex 2-ball and some orbifolds over K3 surfaces uniformized by the 2-ball. Corresponding…

The interaction between combinatorics and algebraic and differential geometry is very strong. While researching a problem of Hessian topology, we came across a series of identities of binomial coefficients, which are useful for proving a…

The main purpose of the present paper is to define and study the notion of quasi bi-slant submanifolds of almost contact metric manifolds. We mainly concerned with quasi bi-slant submanifolds of cosymplectic manifolds as a generalization of…

These notes are based on three lectures given at the 2013 CIME/CIRM summer school. The purpose of this series of lectures is to introduce the notion of a toric fibration and to give its geometrical and combinatorial characterizations.…

A folded symplectic form on a manifold is a closed 2-form with the mildest possible degeneracy along a hypersurface. A special class of folded symplectic manifolds are the origami symplectic manifolds, studied by Cannas da Silva, Guillemin…

We associate a geometric space to an arbitrary convex polytope. Our construction parallels the construction by D. Cox of a toric variety as a GIT quotient. The spaces that we obtain are endowed with a natural stratification and perfectly…

We generalize Laurent monomials to toric quasifolds, a special class of highly singular spaces that extend simplicial toric varieties to the nonrational setting.

We characterize the Zariski topologies over an algebraically closed field in terms of general dimension-theoretic properties. Some applications are given to complex manifold and to strongly minimal sets.

We give simple characterizations of contact 1-forms in terms of Dirac structures. We also relate normal almost contact structures to the theory of Dirac structures.

We analyse properties of hypertoric manifolds of infinite topological type, including their topology and complex structures. We show that our manifolds have the homotopy type of an infinite union of compact toric varieties. We also discuss…

During the past thirty years hyperbolic type metrics have become popular tools also in modern mapping theory, e.g., in the study of quasiconformal and quasiregular maps in the euclidean $n$-space. We study here several metrics that one way…

In this paper we give a toric representation of the associated ring of a polyomino which is obtained by removing a convex polyomino from its ambient rectangle.

We consider some simple examples of supersymmetric quantum mechanical systems and explore their possible geometric interpretation with the help of geometric aspects of real Clifford algebras. This leads to natural extensions of the…
