This paper establishes compactness results for the moduli stack of holomorphic curves in suitable exploded manifolds. This result together with the analysis in arXiv:0902.0087 allows the definition of Gromov Witten invariants of these…
A complex contact threefold is a threefold with a two-dimensional non-integrable holomorphic distribution. A contact curve on a contact threefold is an integrable curve of the distribution. This work was inspired by two papers of Bryant, in…
For oriented connected closed manifolds of the same dimension, there is a transitive relation: $M$ dominates $N$, or $M \ge N$, if there exists a continuous map of non-zero degree from $M$ onto $N$. Section 1 is a reminder on the notion of…
This is one in a series of papers devoted to the foundations of Symplectic Field Theory sketched in [Y Eliashberg, A Givental and H Hofer, Introduction to Symplectic Field Theory, Geom. Funct. Anal. Special Volume, Part II (2000) 560--673].…
We establish plurisubharmonicity of the envelope of Poisson and Lelong functionals on almost complex manifolds. That is, we generalize the corresponding results for complex manifolds and almost complex manifolds of complex dimension two. We…
Let (M,\omega) be a symplectic manifold, and Sigma a compact Riemann surface. We define a 2-form on the space of immersed symplectic surfaces in M, and show that the form is closed and non-degenerate, up to reparametrizations. Then we give…
This is the introduction and bibliography for lecture notes of a course given at the Summer School on Noncommutative Geometry and Applications, sponsored by the European Mathematical Society, at Monsaraz and Lisboa, Portugal, September…
This article describes various moduli spaces of pseudoholomorphic curves on the symplectization of a particular overtwisted contact structure on S^1 x S^2. This contact structure appears when one considers a closed self dual form on a…
We discuss selected topics on the topology of moduli spaces of curves and maps, emphasizing their relation with Gromov--Witten theory and integrable systems.
We study the approximation of J-holomorphic maps continuous to the boundary from ma domain in the complex plane into an almost complex manifold by maps J-holomorphic to the boundary, giving partial results in the non-integrable case. For…
We study the topology of the complex points of the algebraic loop space of a smooth curve.
This paper poses some basic questions about instances (hard to find) of a special problem in 3-manifold topology. "Important though the general concepts and propositions may be with the modern industrious passion for axiomatizing and…
Let $p:\Sigma'\to\Sigma$ be a finite Galois cover, possibly branched, with Galois group $G$. We are interested in the structure of the cohomology of $\Sigma'$ as a module over $G$. We treat the cases of branched and unbranched covers…
These are expanded notes from a four lecture mini-course given by the author at the Spring School on Non-archimedean geometry and Eigenvarieties, held at the University of Heidelberg in March 2023. The course discusses coherent sheaves,…
We show that any compact almost-complex manifold of complex dimension m can be pseudo-holomorphically embedded in R^(6m) equipped with a suitable almost-complex structure.
The aim of this survey is to explore complete intersection monomial curves from a contemporary perspective. The main goal is to help readers understand the intricate connections within the field and its potential applications. The…
In this paper we define Kobayashi-Royden pseudonorm for almost complex manifolds. Its basic properties known from the complex analysis are preserved in the nonintegrable case as well. We prove that the pseudodistance induced by this…
The leaves in singular holomorphic foliation theory are examples of quasi-analytic layers. In the first part of our publication we are concerned with a theory of these subjects. A quasi-analytic decomposition of a complex manifold is a…
This is an extended abstract of my talk at the Oberwolfach-Workshop "Representation Theory of Finite-Dimensional Algebras" (February 6 - 12, 2005). It gives self-contained and simplified definitions of quantum cluster algebras introduced…
In this text we expose basic cases of some fundamental ideas and methods of topology. Namely, of homotopy, degree, fundamental group, covering, Whitehead invariant, etc. This is done by considering the elementary example: closed polygonal…
