We give a classification of irreducible four-dimensional symmetric spaces $G/H$ which admit compact Clifford-Klein forms, where $G$ is the transvection group of $G/H$. For this, we develop a method that applies to particular 1-connected…

Let $M$ be a closed, connected, orientable topological four-manifold with $H_1(M)$ nontrivial and free abelian, $b_2(M)\ne 0, 2$, and $\chi(M)\ne 0$. We show that if $G$ is a finite group of 2-rank $\le 1$ which admits a homologically…

We introduce the class of piecewise convex transformations, and study their complexity. We apply the results to the complexity of polygonal billiards on surfaces of constant curvature.

Using $\mathbb{Z}_3$ symmetry, we present a topological condition for the existence of the $\mathbb{Z}_2$ harmonic 1-forms over Riemannian manifold. As a corollary, if $L$ is an oriented link on $S^3$ with determinant zero, then there…

We construct infinitely many pairwise non-diffeomorphic smooth structures on a definite $4$-manifold with non-cyclic fundamental group $\mathbb{Z}/2\times \mathbb{Z}/2$.

We construct noncomplex smooth 4-manifolds which admit genus-2 Lefschetz fibrations over S^2. The fibrations are necessarily hyperelliptic, and the resulting 4-manifolds are not even homotopy equivalent to complex surfaces. Furthermore,…

We construct the first examples of non-K\"ahler complex structures on $R^4$. These complex surfaces have some analogies with the complex structures constructed in early Fifties by Calabi and Eckmann on the products of two odd-dimensional…

We design in this work a discrete de Rham complex on manifolds. This complex, written in the framework of exterior calculus, has the same cohomology as the continuous de Rham complex, is of arbitrary order of accuracy and, in principle, can…

We study the possibility of realizing exotic smooth structures on punctured simply connected $4$-manifolds as leaves of a codimension one foliation on a compact manifold. In particular, we show the existence of uncountably many smooth open…

We re-derive the R symmetries for the Z6-II orbifold with non-trivial Wilson lines and find expressions for the R charges which differ from those in the literature.

The associahedron is a convex polytope whose face poset is based on nonintersecting diagonals of a convex polygon. In this paper, given an arbitrary simple polygon P, we construct a polytopal complex analogous to the associahedron based on…

The paper surveys recent progress in understanding geometric, topological and combinatorial properties of large simplicial complexes, focusing mainly on ampleness, connectivity and universality. In the first part of the paper we concentrate…

This is a complete classification of the complex forms of quaternionic symmetric spaces

We describe a new method of weaving a model of the Klein quartic, a highly symmetric, but abstract genus-3 surface akin to a platonic polyhedron, with negatively-curved geometry. The Klein quartic cannot be realized in its fully symmetric…

We construct some nonsmoothable actions of Z2 * Z2 on spin four-manifolds by using an equivariant version of Furuta' s 10/8inequality. The examples satisfy following property: any proper subgroup of Z2 * Z2 is smoothable for some smooth…

We prove necessary and sufficient conditions for a smooth surface in a 4-manifold X to be pseudoholomorphic with respect to some almost complex structure on X. This provides a systematic approach to the construction of pseudoholomorphic…

We construct an example of Ricci-flat almost-K\"ahler non-K\"ahler structure in four dimensions.

On a complex manifold $(M,J)$, we interpret complex symplectic and pseudo-K\"ahler structures as symplectic forms with respect to which $J$ is, respectively, symmetric and skew-symmetric. We classify complex symplectic structures on…

We show the existence of families of periodic polyhedra in spaces of constant curvature whose fundamental domains can be obtained by attaching prisms and antiprisms to Archimedean solids. These polyhedra have constant discrete curvature and…

We develop a tighter implementation of basic PL topology, which keeps track of some combinatorial structure beyond PL homeomorphism type. With this technique we clarify some aspects of PL transversality and give combinatorial proofs of a…
