The goal of this book is to characterize algebraically the closed 4-manifolds that fibre nontrivially or admit geometries in the sense of Thurston, or which are obtained by surgery on 2-knots, and to provide a reference for the topology of…

We show that twisted torus knots $T(p,q,3,s)$ are tunnel number one. A short spanning arc connecting two adjacent twisted strands is an unknotting tunnel.

This is the paper as published. The topology of a complex plane curve singularity with real branches is deduced from any real deformation having delta crossings. An example of the computation of the global geometric monodromy of a…

Building on Whitney's classical method of triangulating smooth manifolds, we show that every compact $d$-dimensional smooth manifold admits a triangulation with dual graph of twin-width at most $d^{O(d)}$. In particular, it follows that…

The present paper considers two infinite families of cone-manifolds endowed with spherical metric. The singular strata is either the torus knot ${\rm t}(2n+1, 2)$ or the torus link ${\rm t}(2n, 2)$. Domains of existence for a spherical…

In this short note we give a complete characterization of a certain class of compact corank one Poisson manifolds, those equipped with a closed one-form defining the symplectic foliation and a closed two-form extending the symplectic form…

We determine the locally flat cobordism distance between torus knots with small and large braid index, up to high precision. Here small means 2, 3, 4, or 6. As an application, we derive a surprising fact about torus knots that appear as…

We find a direct relation between quiver representation theory and open topological string theory on a class of toric Calabi-Yau manifolds without compact four-cycles, also referred to as strip geometries. We show that various quantities…

Every 1-connected topological 4-manifold M admits a $S^{1}$-covering by $#_{r-1}S^{2}\times S^{3}$, where $r=$rank$H^{2}(M;\QTR{Bbb}{Z})$.

This article contains is concerned with noncommutative analogue of topological finitely listed covering projections. In my previous article I have already find a family of covering projections of the noncommutative torus. This article…

In this brief note, we investigate the $\mathbb{CP}^2$-genus of knots, i.e. the least genus of a smooth, compact, orientable surface in $\mathbb{CP}^2\setminus \mathring{B^4}$ bounded by a knot in $S^3$. We show that this quantity is…

Let $M_1$ and $M_2$ be knot manifolds and $M=M_1\cup_f M_2$ be the closed 3-manifold obtained by gluing up $M_1$ and $M_2$ via $f:\partial M_1\xrightarrow{\cong} \partial M_2$. We show that if $M$ admits a co-oriented taut foliation, then…

By the work of Li, a compact co-K\"ahler manifold $M$ is a mapping torus $K_\varphi$, where $K$ is a K\"ahler manifold and $\varphi$ is a Hermitian isometry. We show here that there is always a finite cyclic cover $\bar M$ of the form $\bar…

A polynomial is presented that models a topological knot in a unique manner. It distinguishes all types of knots including the orientation and has a group theory interpretation. The topologies may be labeled via a number, which upon a base…

We introduce the category of {\it locally $k$-standard $T$-manifolds} which includes well-known classes of manifolds such as toric and quasitoric manifolds, good contact toric manifolds and moment-angle manifolds. They are smooth manifolds…

A point in the $(N,q)$-torus knot in $\mathbb{R}^3$ goes $q$ times along a vertical circle while this circle rotates $N$ times around the vertical axis. In the Lissajous-toric knot $K(N,q,p)$, the point goes along a vertical Lissajous curve…

Given a knot in $S^3$, one can associate to it a surface diffeomorphism in two different ways. First, an arbitrary knot in $S^{3}$ can be represented by braids, which can be thought of as diffeomorphisms of punctured disks. Second, if the…

We show that there is a type-preserving homomorphism from the fundamental group of the figure-eight knot complement to the mapping class group of the thrice-punctured torus. As a corollary, we obtain infinitely many commensurability classes…

This is an expository article on diagrammatic representations of knots and links in various settings via braids.

It is proved that the Wedderburn Theorem on finite division rings implies that all knots and links in the smooth 4-dimensional manifolds are trivial.
