We define a grid presentation for singular links i.e. links with a finite number of rigid transverse double points. Then we use it to generalize link Floer homology to singular links. Besides the consistency of its definition, we prove that…
It is well known that if a function from set A to set B has a right inverse then the function is a surjection and the right inverse is an injection. For finite sets, the number of functions, injections, and surjections can also be counted.…
We study the singularities of Legendrian subvarieties of contact manifolds in the complex-analytic category and prove two rigidity results. The first one is that Legendrian singularities with reduced tangent cones are contactomorphically…
In this paper we define a rigid rational homotopy type, associated to any variety $X$ over a perfect field $k$ of positive characteristic. We prove comparison theorems with previous definitions in the smooth and proper, and log-smooth and…
We survey the recent results and current issues on the topological rigidity problem for closed aspherical manifolds, i.e., connected closed manifolds whose universal coverings are contractible. A number of open problems and conjectures are…
Let (L;C) be the (up to isomorphism unique) countable homogeneous structure carrying a binary branching C-relation. We study the reducts of (L;C), i.e., the structures with domain L that are first-order definable in (L;C). We show that up…
We exactly settle the complexity of graph realization, graph rigidity, and graph global rigidity as applied to three types of graphs: "globally noncrossing" graphs, which avoid crossings in all of their configurations; matchstick graphs,…
For a finite binary relation, we show a local operation which does not decrease its number of (Galois-)closed sets and eventually increases its (Vapnik-Chervonenkis)-dimension. Specifically, we show that there always exist a pair of…
We prove that a quasi-finite endomorphism of an algebraic variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, that is injective on the complement of a closed subvariety, is an automorphism. We also prove that an endomorphism…
A relational structure is indivisible if for every partition of its set of elements into two parts there exists an embedding of the structure into one of the parts of the partition. A relational structure is homogeneous if every embedding…
Rigid monoidal 1-categories are ubiquitous throughout quantum algebra and low-dimensional topology. We study a generalization of this notion, namely rigid algebras in an arbitrary monoidal 2-category. Examples of rigid algebras include…
A classical result in complex geometry says that the automorphism group of a manifold of general type is discrete. It is more generally true that there are only finitely many surjective morphisms between two fixed projective manifolds of…
It is known that the canonical double cover of any connected nonbipartite graph have an automorphism group of the form $H \rtimes \mathbb{Z}_2$, where $H$ is the set of automorphism which preserve bipartite parts. We construct connected…
We classify the reflexive modules of rank one over rational and minimally elliptic singularities. Equivalently, we classify full line bundles on the resolutions of rational and minimally elliptic singularities. As an application, we…
For a totally disconnected locally compact abelian group, we prove that the topological entropy of a continuous endomorphism coincides with the algebraic entropy of the dual endomorphism with respect to the Pontryagin duality. Moreover,…
Five topics: A rigid body does not exist in the special theory of relativity; distant simultaneity defined with respect to a given frame of reference without any reference to synchronized clocks; challenges on Einstein's connection of…
We assign a relational structure to any finite algebra in a canonical way, using solution sets of equations, and we prove that this relational structure is polymorphism-homogeneous if and only if the algebra itself is…
A function $f:\RR \to \RR$ is called \emph{vertically rigid} if $graph(cf)$ is isometric to $graph (f)$ for all $c \neq 0$. We prove Jankovi\'c's conjecture by showing that a continuous function is vertically rigid if and only if it is of…
In the study of holomorphic maps, the term "rigidity" refers to certain types of results that give us very specific information about a general class of holomorphic maps owing to the geometry of their domains or target spaces. Under this…
Suppose that M is countable, binary, primitive, homogeneous, and simple, and hence 1-based. We prove that the SU-rank of the complete theory of M is~1. It follows that M is a random structure. The conclusion that M is a random structure…
