This is the first of two papers in which we study the modular invariance of pseudotraces of logarithmic intertwining operators. We construct and study genus-one correlation functions for logarithmic intertwining operators among generalized…
This work presents an initial analysis of using bijective mappings to extend the Theory of Functional Connections to non-rectangular two-dimensional domains. Specifically, this manuscript proposes three different mappings techniques: a)…
In ``Knots in lattice homology", Ozsv\'ath, Stipsicz, and Szab\'o showed that knot lattice homology satisfies a surgery formula similar to the one relating knot Floer homology and Heegaard Floer homology, and in previous work, I showed that…
For a hypergraph $\mathcal H$, we consider the edge-induced and vertex-induced subhypergraph polynomials and study their relation. We use this relation to prove that both polynomials are reconstructible, and to prove a theorem relating the…
We give a proof of a Conjecture of Walker which states that one can recover the lengths of the bars of a circular linkage from the cohomology ring of the configuration space. For a large class of length vectors, this has been shown by…
This is a continuation of notes on dynamics of quadratic polynomials. In this part we transfer the our prior geometric result to the parameter plane. To any parameter value c in the Mandelbrot set (which lies outside of the main cardioid…
We construct a family of hyperbolic link complements by gluing tangles along totally geodesic four-punctured spheres, then investigate the commensurability relation among its members. Those with different volume are incommensurable,…
We construct the first examples of asymmetric L-space knots in $S^3$. More specifically, we exhibit a construction of hyperbolic knots in $S^3$ with both (i) a surgery that may be realized as a surgery on a strongly invertible link such…
We investigate the relationship between connectedness properties of spectra and the Lyubeznik numbers, numerical invariants defined via local cohomology. We prove that for complete equidimensional local rings, the Lyubeznik numbers…
It is a result of Gruson and Peskine that the invariants of a set points in $\ptwo$ in general position are connected. Associated to a space curve there are sequences of invariants which generalize the invariants of points in $\ptwo$. The…
The direct or algorithmic approach for the Jacobian problem, consisting of the direct construction of the inverse polynomials is proposed. The so called principle and derived Jacobi conditions are proposed and discussed. The algorithmic…
We study complex one-dimensional parameter slices in a three-parameter family of rational maps with two free critical points, obtained by imposing the existence of periodic orbits with prescribed multipliers. Using explicit…
The bridge index and superbridge index of a knot are important invariants in knot theory. We define the bridge map of a knot conformation, which is closely related to these two invariants, and interpret it in terms of the tangent indicatrix…
We describe a topological relationship between slices of the parameter space of cubic maps. In the paper \cite{CP1}, Milnor defined the curves $\mathcal{S}_n$ as the set of all cubic polynomials with a marked critical point of period $p$.…
Let $M$ be a strictly convex smooth connected hypersurface in $\mathbb R^n$ and $\widehat{M}$ its convex hull. We say that $M$ is locally polynomially integrable if the $(n-1)-$ dimensional volumes of the sections of $\widehat M$ by…
This article surveys the use of configuration space integrals in the study of the topology of knot and link spaces. The main focus is the exposition of how these integrals produce finite type invariants of classical knots and links. More…
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,…
We construct a model of the cubic connectedness locus.
The Coble cubics were discovered more than a century ago in connection with genus two Riemann surfaces and theta functions. They have attracted renewed interest ever since. Recently, they were reinterpreted in terms of alternating…
A noncommutative algebra corresponding to the classical catenoid is introduced together with a differential calculus of derivations. We prove that there exists a unique metric and torsion-free connection that is compatible with the complex…
