We show that all finite-dimensional resolvable generalized manifolds with the piecewise disjoint arc-disk property are codimension one manifold factors. We then show how the piecewise disjoint arc-disk property and other general position…

We prove recognition theorems for codimension one manifold factors of dimension $n \geq 4$. In particular, we formalize topographical methods and introduce three ribbons properties: the crinkled ribbons property, the twisted crinkled…

We show that if $G$ is an upper semicontinuous decomposition of $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n \geq 4$, into convex sets, then the quotient space $\mathbb{R}^n/G$ is a codimension one manifold factor. In particular, we show that $\mathbb{R}^n/G$ has…

A map $p:E\to X$ has the \emph{unique path lifting} property if every path in $X$, after a choice of an initial point, lifts uniquely to a path in $E$. We prove that if a group $G$ acts on an $\mathbb R$-tree $T$ such that the quotient map…

We will describe some results regarding the algorithmic nature of homeomorphism problems for manifolds; in particular, the following theorem. Theorem 1: Every PL or smooth simply connected manifold M^n of dimension n at least 5 can be…

We give an updated extended survey of results related to the celebrated unsolved generalized R. L. Moore problem. In particular, we address the problem of characterizing codimension one manifold factors, i.e. spaces $X$ having the property…

A Heegaard splitting of a closed, orientable three-manifold satisfies the disjoint curve property if the splitting surface contains an essential simple closed curve and each handlebody contains an essential disk disjoint from this curve…

Given a proper map f : M $\rightarrow$ Q, having cell-like point-inverses, from a manifold-without-boundary M onto an ANR Q, it is a much-studied problem to find when f is approximable by homeomorphisms, i.e., when the decomposition of M…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a closed smooth 6-manifold N to be diffeomorphic to a product of a surface F and a simply connected 4-manifold M in terms of basic invariants like the fundamental group and cohomological data.…

In this paper we prove that if the r-th tensor power of the tangent bundle of a smooth projective variety X contains the determinant of an ample vector bundle of rank at least r, then X is isomorphic either to a projective space or to a…

We prove the following: (a) Let X be a smooth, codimension two subvariety of P6. If X lies on a hyperquintic or if deg(X)<74, then X is a complete intersection. (b) Let X be a smooth, subcanonical threefold in P5. If X lies on a…

In the vector-field guided path-following problem, a sufficiently smooth vector field is designed such that its integral curves converge to and move along a one-dimensional geometric desired path. The existence of singular points where the…

A Banach space is {\it polynomially Schur} if sequential convergence against analytic polynomials implies norm convergence. Carne, Cole and Gamelin show that a space has this property and the Dunford-Pettis property if and only if it is…

The {\it partially disjoint paths problem} is: {\it given:} a directed graph, vertices $r_1,s_1,\ldots,r_k,s_k$, and a set $F$ of pairs $\{i,j\}$ from $\{1,\ldots,k\}$, {\it find:} for each $i=1,\ldots,k$ a directed $r_i-s_i$ path $P_i$…

We say a smooth projective surface $X$ satisfies the bounded cohomology property if there exists a positive constant $c_X$ such that $h^1(\mathcal O_X(C))\le c_Xh^0(\mathcal O_X(C))$ for every prime divisor $C$ on $X$. Let the closed Mori…

In [1] it was shown that K^, a certain differential cohomology functor associated to complex K-theory, satisfies the Mayer-Vietoris property when the underlying manifold is compact. It turns out that this result is quite general. The work…

Given a set of objects $O$ in the plane, the corresponding intersection graph is defined as follows. Each object defines a vertex and an edge joins two vertices whenever the corresponding objects intersect. We study here the case of unit…

In [1] it was shown that K^, a certain differential cohomology functor associated to complex K-theory, satisfies the Mayer-Vietoris property when the underlying manifold is compact. It turns out that this result is quite general. The work…

Let X be a smooth, projective variety defined over a local field K. Following Manin, two K-points of X are called R-equivalent if they can be joined by a rational curve defined over K. The main result of this note shows that if there are…

Let $B$ be a bidirected multigraph with signing $\sigma$, let $X$ be a set of vertices in $B$, and let $k$ be a non-negative integer. For any pair of vertex sets $S,T\subset V(B)$ satisfying $X\cap S = X\cap T$, we denote by $B_{S,T}$ the…
