We show that there exist flat surface bundles with closed leaves having non-trivial normal bundles. This leads us to compute the Abelianisation of surface diffeomorphism groups with marked points. We also extend a formula of Tsuboi that…
The Morse-Novikov number MN(L) of an oriented link L in the 3-sphere is the minimum number of critical points of a Morse map from the complement of L in the 3-sphere to the circle representing the class of a Seifert surface for L (e.g., the…
In this article, we construct a non-commutative crepant resolution (=NCCR) of a minimal nilpotent orbit closure $\overline{B(1)}$ of type A, and study relations between an NCCR and crepant resolutions $Y$ and $Y^+$ of $\overline{B(1)}$.…
We prove that every non-degenerate Reeb flow on a closed contact manifold $M$ admitting a strong symplectic filling $W$ with vanishing first Chern class carries at least two geometrically distinct closed orbits provided that the positive…
We study piecewise injective, but not necessarily globally injective, contracting maps on a compact subset of \(\bR^d\). We prove that generically the attractor and the set of discontinuities of such a map are disjoint, and hence the…
A general framework for obtaining certain types of contracted and centrally extended algebras is presented. The whole process relies on the existence of quadratic algebras, which appear in the context of boundary integrable models.
The existence of a rigged Hilbert space whose extreme spaces are, respectively, the projective and the inductive limit of a directed contractive family of Hilbert spaces is investigated. It is proved that, when it exists, this rigged…
For an orientable surface with an area form, there are two invariants of area-preserving dynamics, the flux homomorphism and the Calabi invariant. Tsuboi found a remarkable connection between the Calabi invariant on the closed disk and a…
A conformal map from a Riemann surface to the Euclidean four-space is explained in terms of its twistor lift. A local factorization of a differential of a conformal map is obtained. As an application, the factorization of a differential…
Gordon and Litherland showed that all compact, unoriented, possibly non-orientable surfaces in $S^3$ bounded by a link are realted by attaching/deleting tubes and half twisted bands. In this note we give an elementary proof for this result.
The normal form for an n-dimensional map with irreducible nilpotent linear part is determined using sl2-representation theory. We sketch by example how the reducible case can also be treated in an algorithmic manner. The construction (and…
A projective hyperk\"ahler manifold of Kummer-type is said to be twisted modular if it is birational to the Albanese fiber of a moduli space of twisted sheaves on an abelian surface. We prove that, with the exception of certain cases of…
We consider aspects of the geometry and topology of nilpotent orbits in finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebras. In particular, we give the equivariant cohomologies of the regular and minimal nilpotent orbits with respect to the…
We investigate compactifications with duality twists and their relation to orbifolds and compactifications with fluxes. Inequivalent compactifications are classified by conjugacy classes of the U-duality group and result in gauged…
Ordinary maps satisfy topological recursion for a certain spectral curve $(x, y)$. We solve a conjecture from arXiv:1710.07851 that claims that fully simple maps, which are maps with non self-intersecting disjoint boundaries, satisfy…
We consider blowups at a general point of weighted projective planes and, more generally, of toric surfaces with Picard number one. We give a unifying construction of negative curves on these blowups such that all previously known families…
Given a closed, oriented surface, possibly with boundary, and a mapping class, we obtain sharp lower bounds on the number of fixed points of a surface symplectomorphism (i.e. area-preserving map) in the given mapping class, both with and…
We study semistable extremal threefold neighborhoods following earlier work of Mori, Koll\'ar, and Prokhorov. We classify possible flips and extend Mori's algorithm for computing flips of extremal neighborhoods of type k2A to more general…
In this paper we give some coupled fixed point results for mappings satisfying different contractive conditions on complete partial metric spaces.
In reversible dynamical systems, it is frequently of importance to understand symmetric features. The aim of this paper is to explore symmetric periodic points of reversible maps on planar domains invariant under a reflection. We extend…
