4-manifolds have special topological properties which can be used to get a different view on quantum mechanics. One important property (connected with exotic smoothness) is the natural appearance of 3-manifold wild embeddings (Alexanders…
The Euler characteristic and the volume are two best-known multiplicative invariants of manifolds under finite covers. On the other hand, quantum invariants of 3-manifolds are not multiplicative. We show that a perturbative power series,…
We explicitly construct a dynamically incoherent partially hyperbolic endomorphisms of $\mathbb{T}^2$ in the homotopy class of any linear expanding map with integer eigenvalues. These examples exhibit branching of centre curves along…
In this work we introduce a new method for the construction of minimal submanifolds of codimension two in even dimensional spheres and hyperbolic spaces. This is based on the theory of complex-valued harmonic morphisms. This gives the first…
We show that if a hyperbolic 3-manifold admits a partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism then it also admits an Anosov flow. Moreover, we give a complete classification of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism in hyperbolic 3-manifolds as well as…
This article is devoted to level-1 large deviation properties in some nonuniformly hyperbolic systems via Pesin theory. In particular, our result can be applied to the nonuniformly hyperbolic diffeomorphisms described by Katok and several…
We exhibit scarring for certain nonlinear ergodic toral automorphisms. There are perturbed quantized hyperbolic toral automorphisms preserving certain co-isotropic submanifolds. The classical dynamics is ergodic, hence in the semiclassical…
We introduce new topological quantum invariants of compact oriented 3-manifolds with boundary where the boundary is a disjoint union of two identical surfaces. The invariants are constructed via surgery on manifolds of the form $F \times I$…
These notes aim at a pedagogical introduction to recent work on deformation of spaces and deformation of vector bundles over them, which are relevant both in mathematics and in physics, notably monopole and instanton bundles. We first…
We prove hyperbolic 3-manifolds are geometrically inflexible: a unit quasiconformal deformation of a Kleinian group extends to an equivariant bi-Lipschitz diffeomorphism between quotients whose pointwise bi-Lipschitz constant decays…
Relevant algebraic structures for the description of Quantum Mechanics in the Heisenberg picture are replaced by tensorfields on the space of states. This replacement introduces a differential geometric point of view which allows for a…
Baseilhac-Benedetti, following ideas of Kashaev, introduced invariants of pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms of punctured hyperbolic surfaces that depend on a complex root of unity of odd order. Around the same time, Bonahon-Liu introduced…
Two sets of spatially diffeomorphism invariant operators are constructed in the loop representation formulation of quantum gravity. This is done by coupling general relativity to an anti- symmetric tensor gauge field and using that field to…
We give sufficient conditions for an expansive partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism with one-dimensional center to be (topologically) Anosov.
We give some remarks on twisted determinant line bundles and Chern-Simons topological invariants associated with real hyperbolic manifolds. Index of a twisted Dirac operator is derived. We discuss briefly application of obtained results in…
We compute the factorisation homology of the four-punctured sphere and punctured torus over the quantum group $\mathcal{U}_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ explicitly as categories of equivariant modules using the framework of `Integrating Quantum…
We define new topological invariants for Anosov representations and study them in detail for maximal representations of the fundamental group of a closed oriented surface into the symplectic group.
In this paper, we study a series of $L^2$-torsion invariants from the viewpoint of the mapping class group of a surface. We establish some vanishing theorems for them. Moreover we explicitly calculate the first two invariants and compare…
We use unimodular ribbon categories to construct quantum invariants of ribbon surfaces in $4$-dimensional $2$-handlebodies up to $1$-isotopy. In the process, we recover invariants due to Bobtcheva-Messia, Broda-Petit,…
This is a short survey on finite-volume hyperbolic four-manifolds. We describe some general theorems and focus on the concrete examples that we found in the literature. The paper contains no new result.
