A correspondence between different $Pin$-type structures on a compact surface and quadratic (linear) forms on its homology is constructed. Addition of structures is defined and expressed in terms of these quadratic forms.
We introduce a diffeomorphism invariant of $4$-manifolds, the $\mathrm{Pin}^-(2)$-monopole invariant, defined by using the $\mathrm{Pin}^-(2)$-monopole equations. We compute the invariants of several $4$-manifolds, and prove gluing…
We show that two properly embedded compact surfaces in an orientable 4-manifold are cobordant if and only if they are $\mathbb{Z}/2$-homologous and either the 4-manifold has boundary or the surfaces have the same normal Euler number. If the…
We derive the topological obstructions to the existence of non-Cliffordian pin structures on four-dimensional spacetimes. We apply these obstructions to the study of non-Cliffordian pin-Lorentz cobordism. We note that our method of…
We study natural additional structures on real algebraic surfaces with trivial first homology mod 2 of the complexification. If the set of real points realizes the zero of the second homology mod 2 of the complexification, then the set of…
The Madsen-Tillmann spectra defined by categories of three- and four-dimensional Spin manifolds have a very rich algebraic structure, whose surface is scratched here.
We study spin structures on Riemann and Klein surfaces in terms of divisors. In particular, we take a closer look at spin structures on hyperelliptic and $p$-gonal surfaces defined by divisors supported on their branch points. Moreover, we…
We study necessary and sufficient conditions for a 4-dimensional Lefschetz fibration over the 2-disk to admit a $\text{Pin}^{\pm}$-structure, extending the work of A. Stipsicz in the orientable setting. As a corollary, we get existence…
We show that two hypersurfaces in a manifold are related by a sequence of embedded cobordisms if and only if they represent the same homology class. By applying handle decompositions we turn these cobordisms into a sequence of embedded…
The simplest version of the Spin-polynomial invariants of the underlying differentiable structures of algebraic surfaces were considered and the simplest arguments were used in order to distinguish the underlying smooth structures of…
We give simple criteria for the singularities appearing on surfaces codimension less than or equal to two. As applications, we give conditions for codimension two singularities that appear in ruled surfaces and center maps of surfaces in…
We prove that codimension two surfaces satisfying a nonlinear curvature condition depending on normal curvature are smoothly deformed by mean curvature flow to round points.
Let S be a smooth projective surfaces and S^[n] the Hilbert scheme of zero-dimensional subschemes of S of length n. We proof that the class of S^[n] in the complex cobordism ring depends only on the class of the surface itself. Moreover, we…
We introduce a relation of cobordism for knots in thickened surfaces and study cobordism invariants of such knots.
We prove coherence theorems for dualizable objects in monoidal bicategories and for fully dualizable objects in symmetric monoidal bicategories, describing coherent dual pairs and coherent fully dual pairs. These are property-like…
The classifying spaces of cobordisms of singular maps have two fairly different constructions. We expose a homotopy theoretical connection between them. As a corollary we show that the classifying spaces in some cases have a simple product…
We construct a natural bijective correspondence between equivalence classes of Pin$^-$ structures on a compact simplicial $n$-manifold $M^n$, possibly with boundary, and $\mathbb{Z}/4$-valued 'quadratic functions' $Q$ defined on degree…
We give sufficient conditions for a diffeomorphism of a compact surface to be robustly $N$-expansive and cw-expansive in the $C^r$-topology. We give examples on the genus two surface showing that they need not to be Anosov diffeomorphisms.…
Many BPS partition functions depend on a choice of additional structure: fluxes, Spin or Spin$^c$ structures, etc. In a context where the BPS generating series depends on a choice of Spin$^c$ structure we show how different limits with…
In this paper we study monomial multiple structures on a linear subspace of codimension two in projective space. We show that these structures determine smooth points in their respective Hilbert schemes, with (smooth) neighbourhoods of two…
