Topological drawings are natural representations of graphs in the plane, where vertices are represented by points, and edges by curves connecting the points. Topological drawings of complete graphs and of complete bipartite graphs have been…

Tangent categories provide an axiomatic framework for understanding various tangent bundles and differential operations that occur in differential geometry, algebraic geometry, abstract homotopy theory, and computer science. Previous work…

There are two rather distinct approaches to Morse theory nowadays: smooth and discrete. We propose to study a real valued function by assembling all associated sections in a topological category. From this point of view, Reeb functions on…

Tangles were originally introduced as a concept to formalize regions of high connectivity in graphs. In recent years, they have also been discovered as a link between structural graph theory and data science: when interpreting similarity in…

The group of $\mathcal C^1$-diffeomorphisms of any sparse Cantor subset of a manifold is countable and discrete (possibly trivial). Thompson's groups come out of this construction when we consider central ternary Cantor subsets of an…

The problem of enumerating meanders -- pairs of simple plane curves with transverse intersections -- was formulated about forty years ago and is still far from solved. Recently, it was discovered that meanders admit a factorization into…

We introduce a representation via (n+1)-colored graphs of compact n-manifolds with (possibly empty) boundary, which appears to be very convenient for computer aided study and tabulation. Our construction is ageneralization to arbitrary…

Hilbert initiated the standpoint in foundations of mathematics. From this standpoint, we allow only a finite number of repetitions of elementary operations when we construct objects and morphisms. When we start from a subset of a Euclidean…

The manifold hypothesis, which assumes that data lies on or close to an unknown manifold of low intrinsic dimension, is a staple of modern machine learning research. However, recent work has shown that real-world data exhibits distinct…

We show that all the tangles in a finite graph or matroid can be distinguished by a single tree-decomposition that is invariant under the automorphisms of the graph or matroid. This comes as a corollary of a similar decomposition theorem…

We describe singular homology of a manifold $X$ via simplices $\sigma:\Delta_d\to X$ that satisfy Stokes' formula with respect to all differential forms. The notion is geared to the case of tame geometry (definable manifolds with respect to…

In this review we discuss the relationship between random matrix theories and symmetric spaces. We show that the integration manifolds of random matrix theories, the eigenvalue distribution, and the Dyson and boundary indices characterizing…

Early last century witnessed both the complete classification of 2-dimensional manifolds and a proof that classification of 4-dimensional manifolds is undecidable, setting up 3-dimensional manifolds as a central battleground of topology to…

String diagrams turn algebraic equations into topological moves that have recurring shapes, involving the sliding of one diagram past another. We individuate, at the root of this fact, the dual nature of polygraphs as presentations of…

We compare tame actions in the category of schemes with torsors in the category of log schemes endowed with the log flat topology. We prove that actions underlying log flat torsors are tame. Conversely, starting from a tame cover of a…

We study configuration spaces of framed points on oriented closed smooth manifolds. Such configuration spaces admit natural actions of the framed little discs operads, that play an important role in the study of embedding spaces of…

A stratified space is a kind of topological space together with a partition into smooth manifolds. These kinds of spaces naturally arise in the study of singular algebraic varieties, symplectic reduction, and differentiable stacks. In this…

This paper is a short introduction to the combinatorial version of tangle Floer homology defined in "Combinatorial tangle Floer homology". There are two equivalent definitions---one in terms of strand diagrams, and one in terms of bordered…

We construct an effective algorithmic method to compute the homological monodromy of a complex polynomial which is tame. As an application we show the existence of conjugated polynomials in a number field which are not topologically…

We study the equivariant generalization of topological strings on toric manifolds, focusing in particular on defining the contributions of constant maps in the genus expansion of the partition function. This approach regularizes the…
