A knot is said to be slice if it bounds a smooth properly embedded disk in the 4-ball. We demonstrate that the Conway knot, 11n34 in the Rolfsen tables, is not slice. This completes the classification of slice knots under 13 crossings, and…
For each integer $n\ge 2$, we construct infinitely many $n$-component Brunnian links of 3-balls in $S^4$. Our main tool is the third author's result on the existence of splitting spheres for the trivial two-component link of $2$-spheres in…
In this work, we examine the topological phases that can arise in triangular lattices with disconnected elementary band representations. We show that, although these phases may be "fragile" with respect to the addition of extra bands, their…
F-theory on appropriately fibered Spin(7) holonomy manifolds is defined to arise as the dual of M-theory on the same space in the limit of a shrinking fiber. A class of Spin(7) orbifolds can be constructed as quotients of elliptically…
Let $\Delta$ be a $g_2$-minimal normal 3-pseudomanifold. A vertex in $\Delta$ whose link is not a sphere is called a singular vertex. When $\Delta$ contains at most two singular vertices, its combinatorial characterization is known [9]. In…
In 2019, Schneidermann and Teicher showed that the Kirk invariant classifies two-component link maps of two-spheres in the four-sphere up to link homotopy. In this paper, we construct a three-component link homotopy invariant. We construct…
We investigate the properties of Lindblad equations on $d$-dimensional lattices supporting a unique steady-state configuration. We consider the case of a time evolution weakly symmetric under the action of a finite group $G$, which is also…
Suzuki (2004) [7] classified thin weakly distance-regular digraphs and pro- posed the project to classify weakly distance-regular digraphs of valency 3. The case of girth 2 was classified by the third author (2004) [9] under the assumption…
We define a sequence of integer-valued invariants $\gamma^k(L)$ for a $3$-component link $L$. We prove that the resulting $\gamma$-invariants are invariant under concordance, and more generally under weak cobordism, and that they lift…
It is a well-known result that a stable curve of compact type over $\mathbb{C}$ having two components is hyperelliptic if and only if both components are hyperelliptic and the point of intersection is a Weierstrass point for each of them.…
In this article we study quantitative rigidity properties for the compatible and incompatible two-state problems for suitable classes of $\mathcal{A}$-free operators and for a singularly perturbed $T_3$-structure for the divergence…
New lower bounds on the unknotting number of a knot are constructed from the classical knot signature function. These bounds can be twice as strong as previously known signature bounds. They can also be stronger than known bounds arising…
In 2007, Cochran-Friedl-Teichner gave sufficient conditions for when a multi-infection link is topologically slice involving a Milnor's invariant condition on the infecting string link. In this paper, we give a different Milnor's invariant…
The family of negative torus links $T_{p,q}$ over a fixed number of strands $p$ admits a stable limit in reduced Khovanov homology as $q$ grows to infinity. In this paper, we endow this stable space with a bi-graded commutative algebra…
In two dimensional digital geometry, two lattice points are 4-connected (resp. 8-connected) if their Euclidean distance is at most one (resp. $\sqrt{2}$). A set $S \subset Z^2$ is 4-connected (resp. 8-connected) if for all pair of points…
Inferring tie strengths (strong vs. weak) is a core task in network analysis, often guided by the Strong Triadic Closure (STC) principle. In multilayer networks, such as social platforms or biological systems, applying STC independently to…
Symmetry breaking is reported for continuous families of solitons in the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with a two-dimensional complex potential. This symmetry-breaking bifurcation is forbidden in generic complex potentials. However, for…
Nonsymmorphic symmetries can enforce band connectivity that obstructs a single-band Wannier description. We show that a fractional translation $\mathcal{L}$ connecting distinct high-symmetry Wyckoff positions generically renders the Wannier…
A digraph is strongly connected if it has a directed path from $x$ to $y$ for every ordered pair of distinct vertices $x, y$ and it is strongly $k$-connected if it has at least $k+1$ vertices and remains strongly connected when we delete…
We exhibit a knot $P$ in the solid torus, representing a generator of first homology, such that for any knot $K$ in the 3-sphere, the satellite knot with pattern $P$ and companion $K$ is not smoothly slice in any homology 4-ball. As a…
