In the present note, we study a new method of constructing efficient coverings for Kronecker powers of matrices, recently proposed by J. Alman, Y. Guan, A. Padaki [arXiv, 2022]. We provide an alternative proof for the case of symmetric…

We propose an approach to the existence problem for locally conformally K\"ahler metrics on compact complex manifolds by introducing and studying a functional that is different according to whether the complex dimension of the manifold is…

Three-dimensional catalogues of objects at cosmological distances can potentially yield candidate topologically lensed pairs of sets of objects, which would be a sign of the global topology of the Universe. In the spherical case, a…

We carry out a systematic study of a natural covering problem, used for identification across several areas, in the realm of parameterized complexity. In the {\sc Test Cover} problem we are given a set $[n]=\{1,...,n\}$ of items together…

We say that two classes of topological spaces are equivalent if each member of one class has a homeomorphic copy in the other class and vice versa. Usually when the Borel complexity of a class of metrizable compacta is considered, the class…

The Kauffman bracket skein algebra is a quantization of the algebra of regular functions on the $SL_2$ character variety of a topological surface. We realize the skein algebra of the $4$-punctured sphere as the output of a mirror symmetry…

We investigate topology changing processes in the WKB approximation of four dimensional quantum cosmology with a negative cosmological constant. As Riemannian manifolds which describe quantum tunnelings of spacetime we consider constant…

We argue that topological compactons (solitons with compact support) may be quite common objects if $k$-fields, i.e., fields with nonstandard kinetic term, are considered, by showing that even for models with well-behaved potentials the…

We present new computational methods for proving diffeomorphy of triangulated 4-manifolds, including algorithms and topological software that can for the first time effectively handle the complexities that arise in dimension four and be…

We construct families of trivial $2$-knots $K_i$ in $\mathbb{R}^4$ such that the maximal complexity of $2$-knots in any isotopy connecting $K_i$ with the standard unknot grows faster than a tower of exponentials of any fixed height of the…

We present a short proof of Reisner's Theorem, characterizing which simplicial complexes have a Cohen-Macaulay face ring. In some cases, we can also express some homological invariants of the face ring in terms of the reduced homology of…

We propose a method to prove a polyhedral branching formula for Kirillov-Reshetikhin (KR) modules over a quantum affine algebra. When the underlying simple Lie algebra is of exceptional type, such a formula remains conjectural in many…

The percolation threshold and wrapping probability $R_{\infty}$ for the two-dimensional problem of continuum percolation on the surface of a Klein bottle have been calculated by the Monte Carlo method with the Newman--Ziff algorithm for…

We prove that a hyper-K\"ahler fourfold satisfying a mild topological assumption is of K3$^{[2]}$ deformation type. This proves in particular a conjecture of O'Grady stating that hyper-K\"ahler fourfolds of K3$^{[2]}$ numerical type are of…

This short note summarizes a number of facts about the ring $K^0(X)$ for $X$ a $4$-dimensional CW-complex. Unusual features of this dimension are that every complex vector bundle is determined up to stable isomorphism by its Chern classes,…

This article finds constant scalar curvature Kahler metrics on certain compact complex surfaces. The surfaces considered are those admitting a holomorphic submersion to a curve, with fibres of genus at least 2. The proof is via an adiabatic…

We show that there is a complex structure on the symplectic 4-manifold $W_{4, k}$ obtained from the elliptic surface E(4) by rationally blowing down $k$ sections for $2\le k\le 9$. And we interpret it via ${\mathbb Q}$-Gorenstein smoothing.…

We show that a $2k$-current $T$ on a complex manifold is a real holomorphic $k$-chain if and only if $T$ is locally real rectifiable, $d$-closed and has $\mathcal{H}^{2k}$-locally finite support. This result is applied to study homology…

In this note, we present a simpler way to prove the compactness of the closed intervals in simply ordered set with order topology.

The topological complexity TC(X) is a numerical homotopy invariant of a topological space X which is motivated by robotics and is similar in spirit to the classical Lusternik-Schnirelmann category of X. Given a mechanical system with…
