The theory of welded and extended welded knots is a generalization of classical knot theory. Welded (resp. extended welded) knot diagrams include virtual crossings (resp. virtual crossings and wen marks) and are equivalent under an extended…

Kauffman virtual knots are knots in thickened surfaces $F\times R$ considered up to isotopy, stabilizations and destabilizations, and diffeomorphisms of $F\times R$ induced by orientation preserving diffeomorphisms of $F$. Similarly,…

In the past fifteen years, the enumeration of lattice walks with steps takenin a prescribed set S and confined to a given cone, especially the firstquadrant of the plane, has been intensely studied. As a result, the generating functions…

In a recent work of I. Dynnikov and M. Prasolov a new method of comparing Legendrian knots with nontrivial symmetry group is proposed. Using this method we confirm conjectures of Ng and Chongchitmate about Legendrian knots in topological…

We study algebraic aspects of generalized Legendrian racks, which are nonassociative structures based on the Legendrian Reidemeister moves. We answer an open question characterizing the group of GL-structures on a given rack. As…

Let N_d be the number of degree d, nodal, rational plane curves through 3d-1 points in the complex projective plane. The number of degree d>=3, nodal, elliptic plane curves with a fixed (general) j-invariant through 3d-1 points is found to…

In a recent work of I.\,Dynnikov and M.\,Prasolov a new method of comparing Legendrian knots is proposed. In general, to apply the method requires a lot of technical work. In particular, one needs to search all rectangular diagrams of…

We show that only finitely many complex genus two curves and four punctured spheres admit rank two local systems of geometric origin, and moreover each carries finitely many. This gives further counterexamples to a conjecture of Esnault and…

We show the existence of toric resolution tower for an irreducible curve singularity which is explicitly described by Tschirnhausen polynomials. We deduce for a smooth affine plane curve from its topology restrictions for its singularity at…

We prove that for any pair of Legendrian representatives of the Chekanov-Eliashberg twist knots with different LOSS invariants, any negative rational contact $r$-surgery with $r\neq -1$ always gives rise to different contact 3-manifolds…

We prove that $n$ plane algebraic curves determine $O(n^{(k+2)/(k+1)})$ points of $k$-th order tangency. This generalizes an earlier result of Ellenberg, Solymosi, and Zahl on the number of (first order) tangencies determined by $n$ plane…

In 1997, Chekanov gave the first example of a Legendrian nonsimple knot type: the $m(5_2)$ knot. Epstein, Fuchs, and Meyer extended his result by showing that there are at least $n$ different Legendrian representatives with maximal…

Let $X\to \mathbb P^2$ be the elliptic Calabi-Yau threefold given by a general Weierstrass equation. We answer the enumerative question of how many discrete rational curves lie over lines in the base, proving part of a conjecture by Huang,…

Twisted knot theory, introduced by M.O.Bourgoin, is a generalization of virtual knot theory. It is easily shown that any virtual knot can be deformed into a trivial knot by a finite sequence of generalized Reidemeister moves and two…

Recent advances in Quantum Topology assign $q$-series to knots in at least three different ways. The $q$-series are given by generalized Nahm sums (i.e., special $q$-hypergeometric sums) and have unknown modular and asymptotic properties.…

This is an introduction to Legendrian contact homology and the Chekanov-Eliashberg differential graded algebra, with a focus on the setting of Legendrian knots in $\mathbb{R}^3$. This is the published version of the paper, but with a…

We formalize eight different notions of isomorphism among (unital) graph C*-algebras, and initiate the study of which of these notions may be described geometrically as generated by moves. We propose a list of seven types of moves that we…

This paper demonstrates an approach for developing a framework to produce invariants of base-point-free generic spherical curves under some chosen local moves from Reidemeister moves using based chord diagrams. Our invariants not only…

We generalize Turaev's definition of torsion invariants of pairs (M,x), where M is a 3-dimensional manifold and x is an Euler structure on M (a non-singular vector field up to homotopy relative to bM and local modifications in int(M).…

We study rational curves on algebraic varieties, especially on normal affine varieties endowed with a $\C^*$-action. For varieties with an isolated singularity, we show that the presence of sufficiently many rational curves outside the…
