We present an alternative application of discrete Morse theory for two-particle graph configuration spaces. In contrast to previous constructions, which are based on discrete Morse vector fields, our approach is through Morse functions,…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finitely generated group and $G$ be a noncompact semisimple connected real Lie group with finite center. We consider the space $\mathcal X$ of conjugacy classes of reductive representations of $\Gamma$ into $G$. We define…

We fully develop the concept of causal symmetry introduced in Class. Quant. Grav. 20 (2003) L139. A causal symmetry is a transformation of a Lorentzian manifold (V,g) which maps every future-directed vector onto a future-directed vector. We…

We study the topology of admissible-loop spaces on a step-two Carnot group G. We use a Morse-Bott theory argument to study the structure and the number of geodesics on G connecting the origin with a 'vertical' point (geodesics are critical…

We study dynamical and computational properties of the set of bi-infinite self-avoiding walks on Cayley graphs, as well as ways to compute, approximate and bound their connective constant. To do this, we introduce the skeleton $X_{G,S}$ of…

We study the geometry and dynamics of discrete infinite covolume subgroups of higher rank semisimple Lie groups. We introduce and prove the equivalence of several conditions, capturing "rank one behavior'' of discrete subgroups of higher…

We consider infinite weighted graphs $G$, i.e., sets of vertices $V$, and edges $E$ assumed countable infinite. An assignment of weights is a positive symmetric function $c$ on $E$ (the edge-set), conductance. From this, one naturally…

We prove the following boundary-theoretic characterization of relatively hyperbolic groups. Let $G$ be a finitely generated group with a finite collection $\mathcal{H}$ of finitely generated subgroups, and let $G^h$ denote the associated…

Based on a notion by Gray and Kambites of hyperbolicity in the setting of semimetric spaces like digraphs or semigroups, we will construct (under a small additional geometric assumption) a boundary based on quasi-geodesic rays and anti-rays…

We classify the path-components of the space of circle-valued Morse functions on compact surfaces: two Morse functions $f, g: M\to S^1$ belong to same path-component of this space if and only if they are homotopic and have equal numbers of…

For non-compact, locally symmetric moduli spaces M, the set of geodesics and the geometry of the boundary can be completely characterised using group theory. In particular, geodesics that asymptote to a given infinite distance boundary…

Let S be an operator system -- a self-adjoint linear subspace of a unital C*-algebra A such that contains 1 and A=C*(S) is generated by S. A boundary representation for S is an irreducible representation \pi of C*(S) on a Hilbert space with…

In this paper we use the gradient flow equation introduced in [10] to construct a Morse complex for the Hamiltonian action $\mathbb A_H$ on a mixed regularity space of loops in the cotangent bundle $T^*M$ of a closed manifold $M$.…

Let $M$ be a smooth connected orientable compact surface. Denote by $F(M,S^1)$ the space of all Morse functions $f:M\to S^1$ having no critical points on the boundary of $M$ and such that for every boundary component $V$ of $M$ the…

We show that the index of a lightlike geodesic in a conformally standard stationary spacetime is equal to the index of its spatial projection as a geodesic of a Finsler metric associated to the spacetime. Moreover we obtain the Morse…

Let $A$ be a separable $C^*$-algebra and $B$ a stable $C^*$-algebra containing a strictly positive element. We show that the group $\Ext(SA,B)$ of unitary equivalence classes of extensions of $SA$ by $B$, modulo the extensions which are…

This paper presents an algebraic-geometric construction of the derivative developed initially within the class of polynomial functions without introducing limits at the initial stage. Tangency is characterized by an algebraic condition: the…

We consider a finite group $G$ acting on a manifold $M$. For any equivariant Morse function, which is a generic condition, there does not always exist an equivariant metric $g$ on $M$ such that the pair $(f,g)$ is Morse-Smale. Here, the…

We construct a Geroch-like boundary (when restricted to geodesic curves, this boundary contains as a subset the Geroch's $g$ boundary), which we denote by $\tilde{g}$, and establish an explicit embedding of the $\tilde{g}$ boundary into the…

Main subject of the paper is a (strong) Morse function on a compact manifold with boundary. We construct a cellular structure and discuss its algebraic properties in this paper. Also we get an estimation on Arnold's question on a number of…
