For a nullhomologous Legendrian knot in a closed contact 3-manifold Y we consider a contact structure obtained by positive rational contact surgery. We prove that in this situation the Heegaard Floer contact invariant of Y is mapped by a…

In this paper we construct a Floer-homology invariant for a natural and wide class of sutured manifolds that we call balanced. This generalizes the Heegaard Floer hat theory of closed three-manifolds and links. Our invariant is unchanged…

We introduce the concept of pseudo-trisections of smooth oriented compact 4-manifolds with boundary. The main feature of pseudo-trisections is that they have lower complexity than relative trisections for given 4-manifolds. We prove…

In this article we study the bordism groups of normally nonsingular maps $f: X \to Y$ defined on pseudomanifolds $X$ and $Y$. To characterize the bordism of such maps, inspired by the formula given by Stong, we give a general definition of…

Consider the cotangent bundle of a closed Riemannian manifold and an almost complex structure close to the one induced by the Riemannian metric. For Hamiltonians which grow for instance quadratically in the fibers outside of a compact set,…

We study the homomorphism induced in homology by a closed correspondence between topological spaces, using projections from the graph of the correspondence to its domain and codomain. We provide assumptions under which the homomorphism…

A generalized-homology bordism-theory is constructed, such that for certain manifold homotopy stratified sets (MHSS; Quinn-spaces) homeomorphism-invariant geometric fundamental-classes exist. The construction combines three ideas: Firstly,…

Hexagon relations are algebraic realizations of four-dimensional Pachner moves, and there are hexagon relations admitting nontrivial cohomologies and leading thus to piecewise linear (PL) 4-manifold invariants. We show that some - but not…

We show that an oriented surface in $\mathbb{R}^4$ containing double point singularities induces a map between the Khovanov homology groups of its boundary links in a functorial way. As part of this work, the movie moves of Carter and Saito…

We calculate the genus zero cobordism-valued Gromov-Witten invariants of a point by refining the string equation on $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{0,n}$ from the Chow ring to algebraic cobordism. This gives inductive formulas for cobordism-valued…

Let $X(P,\lambda)$ be a 4-dimensional toric orbifold associated to a polygon $P$ and a characteristic function $\lambda$. Assuming that $X(P,\lambda)$ is locally smooth over a vertex of $P$, we determine the integral cohomology ring…

In this paper, we introduce a category of graded commutative rings with certain algebraic morphisms, to investigate the cobordism category of plumbed 3-manifolds. In particular, we define a non-associative distributive algebra that gives…

We show that any smooth, closed, oriented, connected 4--manifold can be trisected into three copies of $\natural^k (S^1 \times B^3)$, intersecting pairwise in 3--dimensional handlebodies, with triple intersection a closed 2--dimensional…

We adapt algorithms for resolving the singularities of complex algebraic varieties to prove that the natural map of homology theories from complex bordism to the bordism theory of complex derived orbifolds splits. In equivariant stable…

In this article, we construct countably many mutually non-isotopic diffeomorphisms of some closed non simply-connected 4-manifolds that are homotopic to but not isotopic to the identity, by surgery along $\Theta$-graphs. As corollaries of…

Khovanov homology and singular instanton Floer homology are both functorial with respect to link cobordisms. Although the two homology groups are related by a spectral sequence, direct correspondence between the cobordism maps has not been…

We construct a functorial pushforward homomorphism in geometric Hodge filtered complex cobordism along proper holomorphic maps between arbitrary complex manifolds. This significantly improves previous results on such transfer maps and is a…

Coincidences of maps between smooth manifolds are studied via a geometric approach which involves (nonstabilized) normal bordism theory and pathspaces.

Let $Y_1$ be a closed, oriented 3-manifold and $\Sigma$ denote a non-separating closed, orientable surface in $Y_1$ which consists of two connected components of the same genus. By cutting $Y_1$ along $\Sigma$ and re-gluing it using an…

In this paper, we apply the theory of Chern-Cheeger-Simons to construct canonical invariants associated to a $r$-simplex whose points parametrize flat connections on a smooth manifold $X$. These invariants lie in degrees…
