In this paper, we investigate the asymptotic behavior of the integral simplicial volume of cyclic covers of manifolds that fiber over the circle with fiber given by an $n$-dimensional torus. By studying the integral filling volume -- an…

We prove that any mapping torus of a closed 3-manifold has zero simplicial volume. When the fiber is a prime 3-manifold, classification results can be applied to show vanishing of the simplicial volume, however the case of reducible fibers…

Let $M$ be a closed orientable manifold. We introduce two numerical invariants, called filling volumes, on the mapping class group $\mathrm{MCG}(M)$ of $M$, which are defined in terms of filling norms on the space of singular boundaries on…

Let M be a hyperbolic n-manifold whose cusps have torus cross-sections. In arXiv:0901.0056, the authors constructed a variety of nonpositively and negatively curved spaces as "2\pi-fillings" of M by replacing the cusps of M with compact…

The Dehn function and its higher-dimensional generalizations measure the difficulty of filling a sphere in a space by a ball. In nonpositively curved spaces, one can construct fillings using geodesics, but fillings become more complicated…

Graph manifolds are manifolds that decompose along tori into pieces with a tame $S^1$-structure. In this paper, we prove that the simplicial volume of graph manifolds (which is known to be zero) can be approximated by integral simplicial…

We prove that the number of 3-dimensional simplicial complexes having the spherical topology grows exponentially as a function of a volume. It is suggested that the 3d simplicial quantum gravity has qualitatively the same phase structure as…

We prove that the minimal volume entropy of mapping tori over oriented closed smooth $3$-manifolds vanishes. Our approach uses a variation of the amenable category and a suitable version of the minimal volume entropy of a homology class…

We show that after generic filling along a torus boundary component of a 3-manifold, no two closed, 2-sided, essential surfaces become isotopic, and no closed, 2-sided, essential surface becomes inessential. That is, the set of essential…

We show that closed aspherical manifolds supporting an affine structure, whose holonomy map is injective and contains a pure translation, must have vanishing simplicial volume. This provides some further evidence for the veracity of the…

We show that the integral foliated simplicial volume of a connected compact oriented smooth manifold with a regular foliation by circles vanishes.

We prove an equivalence between the infinitesimal Torelli theorem for top forms on a hypersurface contained inside a Grassmannian $\mathbb G$ and the theory of adjoint volume forms presented in L. Rizzi, F. Zucconi, "Generalized adjoint…

In this short note we adapt a proof by Bucher and Neofytidis to prove that the simplicial volume of 4-manifolds admitting an open book decomposition vanishes. In particular this shows that Quinns signature invariant, which detects the…

We study a metric version of the simplicial volume on Riemannian manifolds, the Lipschitz simplicial volume, with applications to degree theorems in mind. We establish a proportionality principle and a product inequality from which we…

It is proved that if one of the finite modules M and N, over a local ring R, has reducible complexity and has finite Gorenstein dimension then the depth formula holds, provided TorR_i(M,N) = 0 for i>>0. We also study the vanishing of…

We show that set of points nondense under the $\times n$-map on the circle and dense for the geodesic flow under the induced map on the circle corresponding to the expanding horospherical subgroup has full Haudorff dimension. We also show…

We show that the simplicial volume of a contractible 3-manifold not homeomorphic to $\mathbb{R}^3$ is infinite. As a consequence, the Euclidean space may be characterized as the unique contractible $3$-manifold with vanishing minimal…

We provide an estimate of the amenable category of oriented closed connected complete affine manifolds whose fundamental group contains an infinite amenable normal subgroup. As an application we show that all such manifolds have zero…

We extend a packing result of R. Hind and E. Kerman for integral Lagrangian tori in $\mathbb{S}^{2} \times \mathbb{S}^{2}$ to the Del Pezzo surfaces $(\mathbb{D}_{n}, \omega_{\mathbb{D}_{n}})$ for $n = 1, \dots, 5$. An integral torus is one…

Theorem A. Let $M^n$ denote a closed Riemannian manifold with nonpositive sectional curvature and let $\tilde M^n$ be the universal cover of $M^n$ with the lifted metric. Suppose that the universal cover $\tilde M^n$ contains no totally…
