This article deals with 3-forms on 6-dimensional manifodls, the first dimension where the classification of 3-forms is not trivial. There are three classes of multisymplectic 3-forms there. We study the class which is closely related to…
Let M be a complete finite-volume hyperbolic 3-manifold with compact non-empty geodesic boundary and k toric cusps, and let T be a geometric partially truncated triangulation of M. We show that the variety of solutions of consistency…
We study partitions on three dimensional manifolds which minimize the total geodesic perimeter. We propose a relaxed framework based on a $\Gamma$-convergence result and we show some numerical results. We compare our results to those…
Let M be an oriented compact 3-manifold and let T be a (loose) triangulation of M, with ideal vertices at the components of the boundary of M and possibly internal vertices. We show that any spin structure s on M can be encoded by extra…
A prism is the product space $\Delta \times I$ where $\Delta$ is a 2-simplex and $I$ is a closed interval. As an analogue of simplicial complexes, we introduce prism complexes and show that every compact $3$-manifold has a prism complex…
We give an introduction to the compactification of the moduli space of surfaces of general type introduced by Koll\'ar and Shepherd-Barron and generalized to the case of surfaces with a divisor by Alexeev. The construction is an application…
We show that the size of a minimal simplicial cover of a polytope $P$ is a lower bound for the size of a minimal triangulation of $P$, including ones with extra vertices. We then use this fact to study minimal triangulations of cubes, and…
For integers $d \geq 2$ and $\epsilon = 0$ or 1, let $S^{1, d - 1}(\epsilon)$ denote the sphere product $S^{1} \times S^{d - 1}$ if $\epsilon = 0$ and the twisted $S^{d - 1}$ bundle over $S^{1}$ if $\epsilon = 1$. The main results of this…
In this article, we investigate the higher topological complexity of oriented Seifert fibered manifolds that are Eilenberg--MacLane spaces $K(G,1)$ with infinite fundamental group $G$. We first refine the cohomological lower bounds for…
We introduce fibrewise Whitehead- and fibrewise Ganea definitions of monoidal topological complexity. We then define several lower bounds for the topological complexity, which improve on the standard lower bound in terms of nilpotency of…
Clifford indices for semistable vector bundles on a smooth projective curve of genus at least 4 were defined in previous papers of the authors. In the present paper, we establish lower bounds for the Clifford indices for rank 3 bundles. As…
M-theory suggests the study of 11-dimensional space-times compactified on some 7-manifolds. From its intimate relation to superstrings, one possible class of such 7-manifolds are those that have Calabi-Yau threefolds as boundary. In this…
A closed hyperbolic 3-manifold is exceptional if its shortest geodesic does not have an embedded tube of radius $\ln(3)/2$. D. Gabai, R. Meyerhoff and N. Thurston identified seven families of exceptional manifolds in their proof of the…
Tightness is a generalisation of the notion of convexity: a space is tight if and only if it is "as convex as possible", given its topological constraints. For a simplicial complex, deciding tightness has a straightforward exponential time…
It was recently shown that there exists an explicit bound for the number of Pachner moves needed to connect any two triangulation of any Haken 3-manifold which contains no fibred sub-manifolds as strongly simple pieces of its…
This paper has three main goals : (1) To give an axiomatic formulation of the construction of "reduced \v{C}ech complexes", complexes using fewer than the usual number of intersections but still computing cohomology of an appropriate class…
In this article we establish the relation between the spines of 3-manifolds and the polyhedra with identified faces. We do this by showing that the spines of the closed, connected, orientable 3-manifolds can be presented through polyhedra…
We study complexities of 3-manifolds defined from triangulations, Heegaard splittings, and surgery presentations. We show that these complexities are related by linear inequalities, by presenting explicit geometric constructions. We also…
Given a compact oriented triangulated $3$-manifold we find a non-trivial condition satisfied by certain labelings of the tetrahedra by elements of an arbitrary abelian group which we call angle structures. Smoothness of the manifold is used…
The extension complexity of a polytope measures its amenability to succinct representations via lifts. There are several versions of extension complexity, including linear, real semidefinite, and complex semidefinite. We focus on the last…
