In this paper, we classify smooth 5-manifolds with fundamental group isomorphic to $\z/2$ and universal cover diffeomorphic to $S^2 \times S^3$. This gives a classification of smooth free involutions on $S^2 \times S^3$ up to conjugation.

We study involutions on K3 surfaces under conjugation by derived equivalence and more general relations, together with applications to equivariant birational geometry.

We classify conjugacy classes of involutions in the isometry groups of nondegenerate, symmetric bilinear forms over the field of two elements. The new component of this work focuses on the case of an orthogonal form on an even dimensional…

We study non-symplectic involutions on irreducible symplectic manifolds of K3^{[2]}-type with 19 parameters, which is the second largest possible. We classify the conjugacy classes of cohomological representations into four different types…

We prove that fundamental groups of orientable (geometrizable) 3-manifolds have a solvable conjugacy problem.

We consider 3-manifolds admitting the action of an involution such that its space of orbits is homeomorphic to $S^3.$ Such involutions are called hyperelliptic as the manifolds admitting such an action. We consider finite groups acting on…

Some properties of non-orientable 3-manifolds are shown. The semi-group of cobordism of immersions of surfaces in such manifolds is computed and proven actually to be a group. Explicit invariants are provided.

We study the orientation preserving involutions of the orientable 3-dimensional handlebody $H_g$, for any genus $g$. A complete classification of such involutions is given in terms of their fixed points.

In this article, we classify all involutions on S^6 with 3-dimensional fixed point set. In particular, we discuss the relation between the classification of involutions with fixed point set a knotted 3-sphere and the classification of free…

A new class of 3-manifold invariants is constructed from representations of the category of framed tangles.

Topological free involutions on S^1xS^n are classified up to conjugation. As a byproduct we obtain a new computation of the group of concordance classes of homeomorphisms of the projective space RP^n.

We construct models of involution surface bundles over algebraic surfaces, degenerating over normal crossing divisors, and with controlled singularities of the total space.

We consider evolution equations for curves in the 3-dimensional sphere $S^3$ that are invariant under the group $SU(2,1)$ of pseudoconformal transformations, which preserves the standard contact structure on the sphere. In particular, we…

Biharmonic or polyharmonic curves and surfaces in 3-dimensional contact manifolds are investigated.

In this paper we explore the topological properties of self-replicating, 3-dimensional manifolds, which are modeled by idempotents in the (2+1)-cobordism category. We give a classification theorem for all such idempotents. Additionally, we…

We have proved in [Topology, 45 1 (2006)] that fundamental groups of oriented geometrizable 3-manifolds have a solvable conjugacy problem. We now consider the case of groups of non-oriented geometrizable 3-manifolds in order to conclude…

We use equivariant surgery to classify all involutions on closed surfaces, up to isomorphism. Work on this problem is classical, dating back to the nineteenth century, but some questions seem to have been left unanswered. We give a modern…

In this paper we classify, up to isomorphism, the superinvolutions on algebras of upper block-triangular matrices over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from $2$.

We define a trivolution on a complex algebra $A$ as a non-zero conjugate-linear, anti-homomorphism $\tau$ on $A$, which is a generalized inverse of itself, that is, $\tau^3=\tau$. We give several characterizations of trivolutions and show…
