In their solution to the orchard-planting problem, Green and Tao established a structure theorem which proves that in a line arrangement in the real projective plane with few double points, most lines are tangent to the dual curve of a…

In [4]: `The Riley slice of Schottky space', (Proc. London Math. Soc. 69 (1994), 72-90), Keen and Series analysed the theory of pleating coordinates in the context of the Riley slice of Schottky space R, the deformation space of a genus two…

Let $L$ be a link in $S^3$. We consider the class of meridional presentations for $\pi_1(S^3\backslash L)$ in which the relations are witnessed by embedded two-spheres which can be represented simultaneously in a fixed diagram of $L$,…

We discuss the cone and contraction theorem in a suitable complex analytic setting. More precisely, we establish the cone and contraction theorem of normal pairs for projective morphisms between complex analytic spaces. This result is a…

With the idea of an eventual classification of 3-bridge links,\ we define a very nice class of 3-balls (called butterflies) with faces identified by pairs, such that the identification space is $S^{3},$ and the image of a prefered set of…

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…

We offer a new structural basis for the theory of 3-connected graphs, providing a unique decomposition of every such graph into parts that are either quasi 4-connected, wheels, or thickened $K_{3,m}$'s. Our construction is explicit,…

In the first part of the paper Beilinson's theorem on the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on P^n is extended to weighted projective spaces in a rather explicit form. To this purpose the usual category of coherent sheaves is…

We define the_hive ring_, which has a basis indexed by dominant weights for GL(n), and structure constants given by counting hives [KT1] (or equivalently honeycombs, or Berenstein-Zelevinsky patterns [BZ1]). We use the octahedron rule from…

In its simplest form the Decomposition Theorem asserts that the rational intersection cohomology of a complex projective variety occurs as a summand of the cohomology of any resolution. This deep theorem has found important applications in…

Deciding whether a family of disjoint line segments in the plane can be linked into a simple polygon (or a simple polygonal chain) by adding segments between their endpoints is NP-hard.

This paper introduces a homology theory for links in I-bundles over an orientable surface. The theory is unique in that the elements of the chain groups are surfaces instead of diagrams. It is then shown this theory yields the same results…

We show that a simply connected stable plane with connected lines is isomorphic to an open subplane of a classical projective plane (i.e., a plane over the real or complex numbers, the quaternions or the octonions) if it has that property…

This paper introduces a new algebra, the crossing algebra, that is applied to count the number of components for arborescent knots, links, tangles or states (of a state polynomial expansion such as the Kauffman bracket). This algebra is…

Let S be a set of distinct points in general position in the Euclidean plane. A plane Hamiltonian path on S is a crossing-free geometric path such that every point of S is a vertex of the path. It is known that, if S is sufficiently large,…

Let $\phi$ be a birational map of the complex projective plane. We know that $\phi$ can be written as a composition of automorphisms of $\mathbb{P}^2_\mathbb{C}$ and the standard quadratic birational map $\sigma$. This writing, that is…

This paper is concerned with structures of general graphs with perfect matchings. We first reveal a partially ordered structure among factor-components of general graphs with perfect matchings. Our second result is a generalization of…

Using the notion of Levi form of a smooth distribution, we discuss the local and the global problem of existence of one horizontal section of a smooth vector bundle endowed with a horizontal distribution. The analysis will lead to the…

Let $\pi: X \to Y$ be a morphism of projective varieties and suppose that $\alpha$ is a pseudo-effective numerical cycle class satisfying $\pi_*\alpha = 0$. A conjecture of Debarre, Jiang, and Voisin predicts that $\alpha$ is a limit of…

The structure of the set of positivity-preserving maps between matrix algebras is notoriously difficult to describe. The notable exceptions are the results by St{\o}rmer and Woronowicz from 1960s and 1970s settling the low dimensional…
