This paper is a brief overview of recent results by the authors relating colored Jones polynomials to geometric topology. The proofs of these results appear in the papers [arXiv:1002.0256] and [arXiv:1108.3370], while this survey focuses on…

We calculate the higher topological complexity TC$_s$ for the complements of reflection arrangements, in other words for the pure Artin type groups of all finite complex reflection groups. In order to do that we introduce a simple…

We study the higher (or sequential) topological complexity $\mathrm{TC}_s$ of manifolds with abelian fundamental group. We give sufficient conditions for $\mathrm{TC}_s$ to be non-maximal in both the orientable and non-orientable cases. In…

It is proved that the stable commutator length of a Dehn twist in the mapping class group is positive and the tenth power of a Dehn twist about a nonseparating simple closed curve is a product of two commutators. As an application a new…

We consider mappings between edge sets of graphs that lift tensions to tensions. Such mappings are called tension-continuous mappings (shortly TT mappings). Existence of a TT mapping induces a (quasi)order on the class of graphs, which…

In this note, we establish a relationship between fractional Dehn twist coefficients of Riemann surface automorphisms and modular invariants of holomorphic families of algebraic curves. Specially, we give a characterization of…

We provide an upper bound on the topological complexity of twisted products. We use it to give an estimate $$TC(X)\le TC(\pi_1(X))+\dim X$$ of the topological complexity of a space in terms of its dimension and the complexity of its…

The goal of the paper is to study a topology generated by the star order on von Neumann algebras. In particular, it is proved that the order topology under investigation is finer than $\sigma$-strong* topology. On the other hand, we show…

We show that any exceptional non-trivial Dehn surgery on a hyperbolic two-bridge knot yields a 3-manifold whose fundamental group is left-orderable. This gives a new supporting evidence for a conjecture of Boyer, Gordon and Watson.

The present note sketches a theory of constructs.

Finite hamiltonian groups are counted. The sequence of numbers of all groups of order $n$ all whose subgroups are normal and the sequence of numbers of all groups of order less or equal to $n$ all whose subgroups are normal are presented.

We define notions of higher order spectra of a complex quasi-projective manifold with an action of a finite group $G$ and with a $G$-equivariant automorphism of finite order, some of their refinements and give Macdonald type equations for…

The first aim of this paper is to give four types of examples of surface bundles over surfaces with non-zero signature. The first example is with base genus 2, a prescribed signature, a 0-section and the fiber genus greater than a certain…

We give Dehn twist--crosscap slide presentations for involutions on non-orientable surfaces of genera up to 5.

We give a complete classification of torsion pairs in the cluster category of Dynkin type D_n, via a bijection to new combinatorial objects called Ptolemy diagrams of type D. For the latter we give along the way different combinatorial…

A descent of a labeled acyclic digraph is a directed edge $x\to y$ with $x>y$. In this paper, we find a recurrence for the number of labeled acyclic digraphs with a given number of descents.

We give upper bounds on the order of the automorphism group of a simple graph

This note gives an example of closed smooth manifolds $M$ and $N$ for which the rank of $M\times N$ is strictly greater than $rank M + rank N$.

The theory of the higher Chern numbers in the presence of strong disorder is developed. Sharp quantization and homotopy invariance conditions are provided. The relevance of the result to the field of strongly disordered topological…

Motivated by conjectures relating group orderability, Floer homology, and taut foliations, we discuss a systematic and broadly applicable technique for constructing left-orders on the fundamental groups of rational homology 3-spheres.…
