It is well known that the two-parametric Todd genus and elliptic functions of level $d$ define $n$-multiplicative Hirzebruch genera, if $d$ divides $n+1$. Both these cases are particular cases of Krichever genera defined by the…

Let ${\cal N}_c$ be the variety of nilpotent groups of class at most $c\ \ (c\geq 2)$ and $G=Z_r\oplus Z_s $ be the direct sum of two finite cyclic groups. It is shown that if the greatest common divisor of $r$ and $s$ is not one, then $G$…

We give a negative answer to a question posed by Severi in 1951, whether the Abelian Varieties are the only projective manifolds with trivial Chern classes. By Yau' s celebrated result, compact K\"ahler manifolds with trivial Chern classes…

We construct a generalized Witten genus for spin$^c$ manifolds, which takes values in level 1 modular forms with integral Fourier expansion on a class of spin$^c$ manifolds called string$^c$ manifolds. We also construct a mod 2 analogue of…

The Addition Theorem for the algebraic entropy of group endomorphisms of torsion abelian groups was proved in [4]. Later, this result was extended to all abelian groups [3] and, recently, to all torsion finitely quasihamiltonian groups [7].…

We prove the Andruskiewitsch-Dumas conjecture that the automorphism group of the positive part of the quantized universal enveloping algebra $U_q({\mathfrak{g}})$ of an arbitrary finite dimensional simple Lie algebra g is isomorphic to the…

Let $S$ be a surface of finite type which is not a sphere with at most four punctures, a torus with at most two punctures, or a closed surface of genus two. Let $\mathcal{MF}$ be the space of equivalence classes of measured foliations of…

We introduce the classes of TAP groups, in which various types of algebraic fibring are detected by the non-vanishing of twisted Alexander polynomials. We show that finitely presented LERF groups lie in the class $\mathsf{TAP}_1(R)$ for…

We study the rigidity problems for open (complete and noncompact) $n$-manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature. We prove that if an asymptotic cone of $M$ properly contains a Euclidean $\mathbb{R}^{k-1}$, then the first Betti number of…

We prove:(1) the existence, for every integer n > 3, of a noncompact smooth n-dimensional topological manifold whose diffeomorphism group contains an isomorphic copy of every finitely presented group; (2) a finiteness theorem on finite…

A tubular group is a group that acts on a tree with $\mathbb{Z}^2$ vertex stabilizers and $\mathbb{Z}$ edge stabilizers. This paper develops further a criterion of Wise and determines when a tubular group acts freely on a finite dimensional…

Every nontrivial abelian variety over a Hilbertian field in which the weak Mordell-Weil theorem holds admits infinitely many torsors with period any $n > 1$ which is not divisible by the characteristic. The corresponding statement with…

The Chow ring of $\mathcal{M}_g$ is known to be generated by tautological classes for $g \leq 9$. Meanwhile, the first example of a non-tautological class on $\mathcal{M}_{g}$ is the fundamental class of the bielliptic locus in…

Reidemeister (or twisted conjugacy) classes are considered in restricted wreath products of the form $G\wr \mathbb{Z}^k$, where $G$ is a finite group. For an automorphism $\varphi$ of finite order (supposed to be the same for the torsion…

We give a new proof of Witten asymptotic conjecture for Seifert manifolds with non vanishing Euler class and one exceptional fiber. Our method is based on semiclassical analysis on a two dimensional phase space torus. We prove that the…

This note studies the Burnside problem for homeomorphism groups of compact connected manifolds. For surfaces, we prove that the identity component of the homeomorphism group is torsion-free precisely when the surface is not the sphere,…

This paper classifies toric Fano 3-folds with singular locus { 1/k(1,1,1) } for any positive integer k, building on the work of Batyrev and Watanabe-Watanabe. This is achieved by completing an equivalent problem in the language of Fano…

We argue that M-theory compactified on an arbitrary genus-one fibration, that is, an elliptic fibration which need not have a section, always has an F-theory limit when the area of the genus-one fiber approaches zero. Such genus-one…

The operational Chow cohomology classes of a complete toric variety are identified with certain functions, called Minkowski weights, on the corresponding fan. The natural product of Chow cohomology classes makes the Minkowski weights into a…

In \cite{BAMU}, an ergodic theorem \`a la Birkhoff-von Neumann for the action of the fundamental group of a compact negatively curved manifold on the boundary of its universal cover is proved. A quick corollary is the irreducibility of the…
