We identify the smooth metrics $\mc{M}(M)$ on a manifold $M^n$ with the smooth isometric embeddings $f_g: (M,g) \rightarrow (\mb{S}^{\tn}, \tg)$ into a standard sphere of large dimension $\tn=\tn(n)$, and their Palais isotopic deformations,…

We show that every $PD_3$-complex $P$ bounds a $PD_4$-pair $(Z,P)$. If $P$ is orientable we may assume that $\pi_1(Z)=1$. We show also that if $P$ has a manifold 1-skeleton then it is homotopy equivalent to a closed 3-manifold, and that if…

Based on a fact that complex Clifford algebras of even dimension are isomorphic to the matrix ones, we consider bundles in Clifford algebras whose structure group is a general linear group acting on a Clifford algebra by left…

By the work of Harer, the reduced homology of the complex of curves is a fundamental cohomological object associated to all torsion free finite index subgroups of the mapping class group. We call this homology group the Steinberg module of…

We obtain a complete description of the moduli spaces of homogeneous metrics with strongly positive curvature on the Wallach flag manifolds $W^6$, $W^{12}$ and $W^{24}$, which are respectively the manifolds of complete flags in $\mathbb…

We construct using relatively basic techniques a spectral sequence for exact Lagrangians in cotangent bundles similar to the one constructed by Fukaya, Seidel, and Smith. That spectral sequence was used to prove that exact relative spin…

We construct the analogue of the Serre spectral sequence for the bounded cohomology of simplicial sets with seminormed local coefficients. As applications, we obtain a (non-isometric) generalization of Gromov's mapping theorem and some…

We study the moduli space of congruence classes of isometric surfaces with the same mean curvature in 4-dimensional space forms. Having the same mean curvature means that there exists a parallel vector bundle isometry between the normal…

This paper studies the homotopy and homeomorphism classifications of $4$-manifolds with boundary. Given $4$-manifolds $X_0$ and $X_1$ with fundamental group $\pi$, we consider the problem of extending a homotopy equivalence $h \colon…

Let $M$ be an $n$-dimensional compact connected manifold with boundary, $\kappa>0$ a constant and $1\leq q\leq n-1$ an integer. We prove that $M$ supports a Riemannian metric with the interior $q$-curvature $K_q\geq -q\kappa^2$ and the…

Given a compact hyperkaehler manifold $M$ and a holomorphic bundle B over $M$, we consider a Hermitian connection $\nabla$ on B which is compatible with all complex structures on $M$ induced by the hyperkaehler structure. Such a connection…

We determine the quantum cohomology of the moduli space of odd degree rank two stable vector bundles over a Riemann surface $\Sigma$ of any genus. This work together with dg-ga/9710029 prove that this quantum cohomology is isomorphic to the…

In a previous work, the authors introduced the notion of `coherent tangent bundle', which is useful for giving a treatment of singularities of smooth maps without ambient spaces. Two different types of Gauss-Bonnet formulas on coherent…

We classify compact simply-connected 5-dimensional manifolds which admit a metric of nonnegative curvature with a connected non-abelian group acting by isometries. We show that they are diffeomorphic to either S^5, S^3 x S^2, the nontrivial…

We compute the Szego kernel of the unit circle bundle of a negative line bundle dual to a regular quantum line bundle over a compact Kaehler manifold. As a corollary we provide an infinite family of smoothly bounded strictly pseudoconvex…

We show that the category of abelian gerbes over a smooth manifold is equivalent to a certain category of principal bundles over the free loop space. These principal bundles are equipped with fusion products and are equivariant with respect…

We study smooth bundles over surfaces with highly connected almost parallelizable fiber $M$ of even dimension, providing necessary conditions for a manifold to be bordant to the total space of such a bundle and showing that, in most cases,…

Let $M$ be a compact $4$-manifold and let $S$ and $T$ be embedded $2$-spheres in $M$, both with trivial normal bundle. We write $M_S$ and $M_T$ for the $4$-manifolds obtained by the Gluck twist operation on $M$ along $S$ and $T$…

In this paper we continue the study of positive scalar curvature (psc) metrics on a depth-1 Thom-Mather stratified space $M_\Sigma$ with singular stratum $\beta M$ (a closed manifold of positive codimension) and associated link equal to…

For the quantum Heisenberg manifolds, using the action of Heisenberg group we construct a family of spectral triples. It is shown that associated Kasparov module is same for all these spectral triples. Then we show that element is…
