For a simple $n$-polytope $P$, a quasitoric manifold over $P$ is a $2n$-dimensional smooth manifold with a locally standard action of the $n$-dimensional torus for which the orbit space is identified with $P$. This paper shows the…
We study the space $Q_n$ of all configurations of $n$ ordered points on the circle such that no three points coincide, and in which one of the points (say, the last one) is fixed. We compute its fundamental group for $n<6$ and describe its…
We apply tropical geometry to study the image of a map defined by Laurent polynomials with generic coefficients. If this image is a hypersurface then our approach gives a construction of its Newton polytope.
We construct an associative ring which is a deformation of the quantum cohomology ring of the projective plane. Just as the quantum cohomology encodes the incidence characteristic numbers of rational plane curves, the contact cohomology…
In this article some noncommutative topological objects such as NC mapping cone and NC mapping cylinder are introduced. We will see that these objects are equipped with the NCCW complex structure of [PEDERSEN]. As a generalization we…
It is studied a 3-dimensional Riemannian manifold equipped with a tensor structure of type (1,1), whose third power is the identity. This structure has a circulant matrix with respect to some basis, i.e. the structure is circulant. On such…
We compute rational $T$-equivariant elliptic cohomology of CP(V), where $T$ is the circle group, and CP(V) is the $T$-space of complex lines for a finite dimensional complex $T$-representation V. Starting from an elliptic curve C over the…
The article is devoted to the question whether the orbit space of a compact linear group is a topological manifold and a homological manifold. In the paper, the case of a simple three-dimensional group is considered. An upper bound is…
A contractible simplicial complex is constructed that parametrizes different ways of representing a fixed one-dimensional homology class in a closed orientable surface by isotopy classes of systems of disjoint oriented simple closed curves.…
Motivated by the limited understanding of entanglement entropy in non-asymptotically AdS spacetimes, we develop a framework in which a circular string is embedded as a quantum probe in a spherically symmetric curved spacetime, and its…
This paper determines tangential structure set of $\#_k\mathbb{C}P^{n}$, for $3\leq n \leq 7$, by analyzing their stable cohomotopy groups and $KO$-groups. As a consequence, it establishes the existence of manifolds with tangential homotopy…
We investigate small covers and quasitoric over the duals of neighborly simplicial polytopes with small number of vertices in dimensions $4$, $5$, $6$ and $7$. In the most of the considered cases we obtain the complete classification of…
The Boolean algebra of regular closed sets is prominent in topology, particularly as a dual for the Stone-Cech compactification. This algebra is also central for the theory of geometric computation, as a representation for combinatorial…
Extracting shape information from object bound- aries is a well studied problem in vision, and has found tremen- dous use in applications like object recognition. Conversely, studying the space of shapes represented by curves satisfying…
Let $K$ be a convex body in the 3-dimensional Euclidian space $\mathbb{E}^3$ and let $N,S$ in the boubdary bd$K$ of $K$, $N\not=S$. Suppose that the support plane $\Pi_S$ of $K$ at $S$ is unique. For every point $x$ in bd$ K$, different…
Tight triangulations are exotic, but highly regular objects in combinatorial topology. A triangulation is tight if all its piecewise linear embeddings into a Euclidean space are as convex as allowed by the topology of the underlying…
We determine the symmetrized topological complexity of the circle, using primarily just general topology.
In this note we begin a systematic study of compact conformal manifolds of SCFTs in four dimensions (our notion of compactness is with respect to the topology induced by the Zamolodchikov metric). Supersymmetry guarantees that such…
A venerable problem in combinatorics and geometry asks whether a given incidence relation may be realized by a configuration of points and lines. The classic version of this would ask for algebraic lines over some field or possibly real…
By viewing entanglement as a state function, a new kind of phase transition takes place: the geometric phase transition. This phenomenon occurs due to singularities in the shape of the entangled states set. It is shown how this result can…
