This paper is based on the observation that dimension of weight spaces of multi-variable Weyl modules depends polynomially on the highest weight (Conjecture 1). We support this conjecture by various explicit answers for up to three variable…

Quantum Chern-Simons invariants of differentiable manifolds are analyzed from the point of view of homological algebra. Given a manifold M and a Lie (or, more generally, an L-infinity) algebra g, the vector space H^*(M) \otimes g has the…

We construct quantum $\mathcal{U}_q(\mathfrak{sl}_{\,2})$ type invariants for handlebody-knots in the 3-sphere $S^3$. A handlebody-knot is an embedding of a handlebody in a 3-manifold. These invariants are linear sums of Yokota's invariants…

We prove that homotopy invariants of finite degree distinguish homotopy classes of maps of a connected compact CW-complex to a nilpotent connected CW-complex with finitely generated homotopy groups.

We generalize the results of [KMST] concerning equivariant quantization by means of Verma modules $M(\lambda)$ for generic weight $\lambda$ to the case of general $\lambda$. We consider the relationship between the Shapovalov form on an…

We give a generalization of Fukaya's Morse homotopy theoretic approach for 2-loop Chern--Simons perturbation theory to 3-valent graphs with arbitrary number of loops at least 2. We construct a sequence of invariants of integral homology…

We prove that the Seiberg-Witten invariants of a rational homology sphere are determined in a very explicit fashion by the Casson-Walker invariant and the Reidemeister torsion

We introduce a homology surgery problem in dimension 3 which has the property that the vanishing of its algebraic obstruction leads to a canonical class of \pi-algebraically-split links in 3-manifolds with fundamental group \pi . Using this…

We present a method for establishing invariant manifolds for saddle--center fixed points. The method is based on cone conditions, suitably formulated to allow for application in computer assisted proofs, and does not require rigorous…

Let $X$ be a differentiable manifold endowed with a transitive action $\alpha:A\times X\longrightarrow X$ of a Lie group $A$. Let $K$ be a Lie group. Under suitable technical assumptions, we give explicit classification theorems, in terms…

Here we shall consider the topology and dynamics associated to a wide class of matchbox manifolds, including a large selection of tiling spaces and all minimal matchbox manifolds of dimension one. For such spaces we introduce topological…

This paper provides a topological interpretation for number theoretic properties of quantum invariants of 3-manifolds. In particular, it is shown that the p-adic valuation of the quantum SO(3)-invariant of a 3-manifold M, for odd primes p,…

For closed oriented manifolds, we establish oriented homotopy invariance of higher signatures that come from the fundamental group of a large class of orientable 3-manifolds, including the ``piecewise geometric'' ones in the sense of…

A version of Kirby calculus for spin and framed three-manifolds is given and is used to construct invariants of spin and framed three-manifolds in two situations. The first is ribbon *-categories which possess odd degenerate objects. This…

This monograph offers an overview on the topological invariants in fermionic topological insulators from the complex classes. Tools from K-theory and non-commutative geometry are used to define bulk and boundary invariants, to establish the…

We establish the continuous homotopy invariance of bivariant local cyclic homology on the category of all \sigma-C^*-algebras. The argument relies vitally on an isomorphism between the smooth and continuous cylinder constructions using a…

A recently introduced approach for the dynamical analysis and quantization of field theoretical models with second class constraints is ilustrated applied to linearized gravity in 3-D. The canonical structure of two different models of…

We prove that an integral homology 3-sphere is S^3 if and only if it admits four periodic diffeomorphisms of odd prime orders whose space of orbits is S^3. As an application we show that an irreducible integral homology sphere which is not…

In this paper we describe the Lie-theoretic structure of ${\rm SO}(1,4)$ and consider control systems given by certain vector fields of ${\rm SO}(1,4)$. Then we explicitly describe its invariant control sets in the unique ${\rm…

3d quantum mechanical systems with position dependent masses (PDM) admitting at least one second order integral of motion and symmetries with respect to dilatation or shift transformations are classified. Twenty-seven such systems are…
