We give a counterexample of Morrison's cone conjecture for a strict Calabi-Yau threefold.
We reprove and expand results of Bonahon and Wong on central elements of the Kauffman bracket skein modules at root of 1 and on the existence of the Chebyshev homomorphism, using elementary skein methods.
In this survey we summarize results regarding the Kauffman bracket, HOMFLYPT, Kauffman 2-variable and Dubrovnik skein modules, and the Alexander polynomial of links in lens spaces, which we represent as mixed link diagrams. These invariants…
We give a counterexample to a conjecture posed by S. Ding regarding the index of a Gorenstein local ring by exhibiting several examples of one dimensional local complete intersections of embedding dimension three with index 5 and…
The Kauffman bracket skein module $S(M)$ of a 3-manifold $M$ is a $\mathbb{Q}(A)$-vector space spanned by links in $M$ modulo the so-called Kauffman relations. In this article, for any closed oriented surface $\Sigma$ we provide an explicit…
We use the Chern-Simons quantum field theory in order to prove a recently conjectured limitation on the 1/K expansion of the Jones polynomial of a knot and its relation to the Alexander polynomial. This limitation allows us to derive a…
Kauffman's bracket is an invariant of regular isotopy of knots and links which since its discovery in 1985 it has been used in many different directions: (a) it implies an easy proof of the invariance of (in fact, it is equivalent to) the…
We construct an example of a closed manifold with a nonflat reducible locally metric connection such that it preserves a conformal structure and such that it is not the Levi-Civita connection of a Riemannian metric.
The paper provides a computation of the additive structure as well as a partial description of the Chern-class module structure of the cohomology of $GL_3$ over the function ring of an elliptic curve over a finite field. The computation is…
An example is constructed of a local ring and a module of finite type and finite projective dimension over that ring such that the module is not rigid. This shows that the rigidity conjecture is false.
For a 3-manifold $M$ with boundary, we study the Kauffman module with indeterminate equal to $-1+\epsilon$ where $\epsilon^2=0$. We conjecture an explicit relation between this module and the Reidemeister torsion of $M$ which we prove in…
This work presents formulas for the Kauffman bracket and Jones polynomials of 3-bridge knots using the structure of Chebyshev knots and their billiard table diagrams. In particular, these give far fewer terms than in the Skein relation…
This note is a summary of our work [OO] which provides an explicit and global moduli-theoretic framework for the collapsing of Ricci-flat Kahler metrics and we use it to study especially the K3 surfaces case. For instance, it allows us to…
To a compact oriented surface of genus at most one with boundary, we associate a quantized $K$-theoretic Coulomb branch in the sense of Braverman, Finkelberg, and Nakajima. In the case where the surface is a three- or four-holed sphere or a…
We prove Simon's conjecture for 3-manifolds.
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and a fixed invertible element $q^{\frac{1}{2}}$, and suppose $q+q^{-1}$ is invertible in $R$. For each planar surface $\Sigma_{0,n+1}$, we present its Kauffman bracket skein algebra over $R$ by…
We define the Conway skein module C(M) of ordered based links in a 3-manifold M. This module gives rise to C(M)-valued invariants of usual links in M. We determine a basis of the Z[z]-module C(F x [0,1])/Tor(C(F x [0,1])) where F is the…
We define a combinatorial structure on 3-manifolds that combines the model manifolds constructed in Minsky's proof of the ending lamination conjecture with the layered triangulations defined by Jaco and Rubinstein.
The aim of the work is to prove the following main theorem. Theorem. Let M3 be a three-dimensional, connected, simple-connected, closed, compact, smooth manifold. Tnen the manifold M3 is diffeomorphic to the three-dimensional sphere.
The simple loop conjecture for 3-manifolds states that every 2-sided immersion of a closed surface into a 3-manifold is either injective on fundamental groups or admits a compression. This can be viewed as a generalization of the Loop…
