Quadratic points of a surface in the projective 3-space are the points which can be exceptionally well approximated by a quadric. They are also singularities of a 3-web in the elliptic part and of a line field in the hyperbolic part of the…

In this paper, we investigate representations of links that are either centrally symmetric in $\mathbb{R}^3$ or antipodally symmetric in $\mathbb{S}^3$. By using the notions of antipodally self-dual and antipodally symmetric maps,…

We present a link rewiring mechanism to produce surrogates of a network where both the degree distribution and the rich--club connectivity are preserved. We consider three real networks, the AS--Internet, the protein interaction and the…

For a prime number $q\neq 2$ and $r>0$ we study, whether there exists an isometry of order $q^r$ acting on a free $\mathbb{Z}_{p^k}$-module equipped with a scalar product. We investigate, whether there exists such an isometry with no…

We consider the surface critical behaviour of diagonally layered Ising models on the square lattice where the inter-layer couplings follow some aperiodic sequence. The surface magnetisation is analytically evaluated from a simple formula…

Pulling back the weight systems associated with the exceptional Lie algebras and their standard representations by a modification of the universal Vassiliev-Kontsevich invariant yields link invariants; extending them to coloured 3-nets, we…

Let L be an oriented (d+1)-component link in the 3-sphere, and let L(q) be the d-component link in a homology 3-sphere that results from performing 1/q-surgery on the last component. Results about the Alexander polynomial and twisted…

The chromatic number of an planar graph is not greater than four and this is known by the famous four color theorem and is equal to two when the planar graph is bipartite. When the planar graph is even-triangulated or all cycles are greater…

In this paper, we give an isotopy classification of 3-bridge spheres of 3-bridge arborescent links, which are not Montesinos links. To this end, we prove a certain refinement of a theorem of J.S. Birman and H.M. Hilden on the relation…

We prove that every finite group is the orientation-preserving isometry group of the complement of a hyperbolic link in the 3-sphere.

Numerical integrations of the closely-packed inner Uranian satellite system show that variations in semi-major axes can take place simultaneously between three or four consecutive satellites. We find that the three-body Laplace angle values…

By using non-positively curved cubings of prime alternating link exteriors, we prove that certain ideal triangulations of their complements, derived from reduced alternating diagrams, are non-degenerate, in the sense that none of the edges…

We characterise the quotient surface graphs arising from symmetric contact systems of line segments in the plane and also from symmetric pointed pseudotriangulations in the case where the group of symmetries is generated by a translation or…

We discuss meridians and longitudes in reduced Alexander modules of classical and virtual links. When these elements are suitably defined, each link component will have many meridians, but only one longitude. Enhancing the reduced Alexander…

We show that there exist split, orientable, 2-component surface-links in $S^4$ with non-isotopic splitting spheres in their complements. In particular, for non-negative integers $m,n$ with $m\ge 4$, the unlink $L_{m,n}$ consisting of one…

This article gives a foundational account of various characterizations of framed links in the $3$-sphere.

Two spheres with centers $p$ and $q$ and signed radii $r$ and $s$ are said to be in contact if $|p-q|^2 = (r-s)^2$. Using Lie's line-sphere correspondence, we show that if $F$ is a field in which $-1$ is not a square, then there is an…

This is the last of a series of papers which give a necessary and sufficient condition for two essential simple loops on a 2-bridge sphere in a 2-bridge link complement to be homotopic in the link complement. The first paper of the series…

We explain how to use bordered algebras to compute a version of link Floer homology. As a corollary, we also give a fast computation of the Thuston polytope for links in the three-sphere.

With the couplings between the eight gluons constrained by the structure constants of the su(3) algebra in QCD, one would expect that there should exist a special basis (or set of bases) for the algebra wherein, unlike in a Cartan-Weyl…
