We introduce a new topological invariant of complex line arrangements in the complex projective plane, derived from the interaction between their complement and the boundary of a regular neighbourhood. The motivation is to identify Zariski…

We prove the structure theorem of the intersection complexes of toric varieties in the category of mixed Hodge modules. This theorem is due to Bernstein, Khovanskii and MacPherson for the underlying complexes with rational coefficients. As…

We show the non-vanishing of cohomology groups of sufficiently small congruence lattices in $SL(1,D)$, where $D$ is a quaternion division algebras defined over a number field $E$ contained inside a solvable extension of a totally real…

We completely determine the free parts of the set-theoretic Yang-Baxter (co)homology groups of finite cyclic biquandles, along with fully computing the torsion subgroups of their 1st and 2nd homology groups. Furthermore, we provide upper…

We show that contact homology distinguishes infinitely many tight contact structures on any orientable, toroidal, irreducible 3-manifold. As a consequence of the contact homology computations, on a very large class of toroidal manifolds,…

Let M be a (possibly non-orientable) compact 3-manifold with (possibly empty) boundary consisting of tori and Klein bottles. Let $X\subset\partial M$ be a trivalent graph such that $\partial M\setminus X$ is a union of one disc for each…

We show that most arithmetic circuit lower bounds and relations between lower bounds naturally fit into the representation-theoretic framework suggested by geometric complexity theory (GCT), including: the partial derivatives technique…

Starting from the results in math.DG:1212.3161 we prove that for a given Bianchi group, certain natural coefficent modules and a lot of sequences of congruence subgroups of the size of the torsion subgroup of the first homology grows…

We apply representation theory to study the homology of equivariant Dehn-fillings of a given finite, regular cover of a compact 3-manifold with boundary a torus. This yields a polynomial which gives the rank of the part of the homology…

We give a simple recursion which computes the triply graded Khovanov-Rozansky homology of several infinite families of knots and links, including the $(n,nm\pm 1)$ and $(n,nm)$ torus links for $n,m\geq 1$. We interpret our results in terms…
