For a compact oriented 3-manifold with torus boundary the adjoint Reidemeister torsion is defined as a function on the $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{C})$-character variety depending on a choice of a boundary curve. Under reasonable assumptions, it…
We introduce a vanishing property of adjoint Reidemeister torsions of a cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold derived from the physics of wrapped M5-branes on the manifold. To support our physical observation, we present a rigorous proof for the…
We give an explicit formula for the adjoint Reidemeister torsion of two-bridge knots and prove that the adjoint Reidemeister torsion satisfies a certain type of vanishing identities.
A generalized torsion in a group, an non-trivial element such that some products of its conjugates is the identity. This is an obstruction for a group being bi-orderable. Though it is known that there is a non bi-orderable group without…
We study the asymptotics of the higher dimensional Reidemeister torsion for torus knot exteriors, which is related to the results by W. M\"uller and P. Menal-Ferrer and J. Porti on the asymptotics of the Reidemeister torsion and the…
Recent work of Chinburg, Reid, and Stover has shown that certain arithmetic and algebro-geometric properties of the character variety of a hyperbolic knot complement in the 3-sphere $M=S^3\setminus K$ yields topological and number theoretic…
Let $M$ be a compact oriented $3$-manifold with boundary consisting of tori, and let $G$ be a semisimple algebraic group. We define the adjoint torsion function on the moduli stack of $G$-local systems on $M$ satisfying a certain regularity…
We compute the adjoint twisted Reidemeister torsion for closed oriented hyperbolic $3$-manifolds and for hyperbolic $3$-manifolds with toroidal boundary. In our formula, we consider the manifold as obtained by doing a Dehn-filling along…
Previous work of the authors studies minimal triangulations of closed 3-manifolds using a characterisation of low degree edges, embedded layered solid torus subcomplexes and 1-dimensional $\mathbb{Z}_2$-cohomology. The underlying blueprint…
Let M be a closed orientable irreducible 3-manifold, and let f be a diffeomorphism over M. We call an embedded 2-torus T an Anosov torus if it is invariant and the induced action of f over \pi_1(T) is hyperbolic. We prove that only few…
An associated Nijenhuis tensor of endomorphisms in the tangent bundle is introduced. Special attention is paid to such tensors for an almost hypercomplex structure and the metric of Hermitian-Norden type. There are studied relations between…
This is a survey on Reidemeister torsion for hyperbolic three-manifolds of finite volume. Torsions are viewed as topological invariants and also as functions on the variety of representations in $\operatorname{ SL}_2(\mathbb C)$. In both…
We determine the adjoint Reidemeister torsion of a $3$-manifold obtained by some Dehn surgery along $K$, where $K$ is either the figure-eight knot or the $5_2$-knot. As in a vanishing conjecture, we consider a similar conjecture and show…
We show that for certain hyperbolic 3-manifolds, all boundary slopes are slopes of immersed incompressible surfaces, covered by incompressible embeddings in some finite cover. The manifolds include hyperbolic punctured torus bundles and…
Work of Kalelkar, Schleimer, and Segerman shows that, with some exceptions, the set of essential ideal triangulations of an orientable cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold is connected via 2-3 and 3-2 moves. It is natural to ask if the subgraph…
Let $K$ be the connected sum of knots $K_1,\ldots,K_n$. It is known that the $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{C})$-character variety of the knot exterior of $K$ has a component of dimension $\geq 2$ as the connected sum admits a so-called bending. We…
Our results complement D. Calegari's result that there are no hyperbolic once-punctured torus bundles over $S^1$ with trace field having real place. We exhibit several infinite families of pairs $(-\chi, p)$ such that there exist hyperbolic…
Let $M$ be the moduli space of rank 3 parabolic vector bundles over a Riemann surface with several punctures. By the Mehta-Seshadri correspondence, this is the space of rank 3 unitary representations of the fundamental group of the…
Let $M$ be a triangulated, oriented, connected compact $3$-manifold with connected non-empty boundary. Such a manifold admits a unique decomposition into $\triangle$-prime $3$-manifolds. In this paper, we show that the adjoint Reidemeister…
It is shown that in every dimension n=3j+2, j=1,2,3,..., there exist compact pseudo-Riemannian manifolds with parallel Weyl tensor, which are Ricci-recurrent, but neither conformally flat nor locally symmetric, and represent all indefinite…
