In a previous work of the first authors, a non-holonomic model, generalising the micromorphic models and allowing for curvature (disclinations) to arise from the kinematic values, was presented. In the present paper, a generalisation of the…

In this work, series expansions in terms of Bessel functions of the first kind are given for the sine and cosine integrals. These representations differ from many of the known Neumann-type series expansions for the sine and cosine…

Tichler proved that a manifold admitting a smooth closed one-form fibers over a circle. More generally a manifold admitting $k$ independent closed one-forms fibers over a torus $T^k$. In this article we explain a version of this…

We extend the notion of T-duality to manifolds endowed with non-principal torus actions. The singularities of the torus action are controlled by a certain Lie algebroid, called the elliptic tangent bundle. Using this Lie algebroid, we…

We give a new self-contained proof of Poincar\'e's Polyhedron Theorem on presentations of discontinuous groups of isometries of a Riemann manifold of constant curvature. The proof is not based on the theory of covering spaces, but only…

A conformal description of Poincare-Einstein manifolds is developed: these structures are seen to be a special case of a natural weakening of the Einstein condition termed an almost Einstein structure. This is used for two purposes: to shed…

In this paper we assign, under reasonable hypothesis, to each pseudomanifold with isolated singularities a rational Poincar\'e duality space. These spaces are constructed with the formalism of intersections spaces defined by Markus Banagl…

We prove the structure theorem of the intersection complexes of toric varieties in the category of mixed Hodge modules. This theorem is due to Bernstein, Khovanskii and MacPherson for the underlying complexes with rational coefficients. As…

We introduce a new notion of "regularity structure" that provides an algebraic framework allowing to describe functions and / or distributions via a kind of "jet" or local Taylor expansion around each point. The main novel idea is to…

The index theorem of Euler-Poincar\'e characteristic of manifold with boundary is given by making use of the general decomposition theory of spin connection. We shows the sum of the total index of a vector field $\phi $ and half the total…

The Wirtinger integral is one of the integral representations of the Gauss hypergeometric function. Its integrand is given by a product of complex powers of theta functions. We study the structure of the twisted homology and cohomology…

Let X be a closed manifold with zero Euler characteristic, and let f: X --> S^1 be a circle-valued Morse function. We define an invariant I which counts closed orbits of the gradient of f, together with flow lines between the critical…

We establish a Cheeger-Muller theorem for unimodular representations satisfying a Witt condition on a noncompact manifold with cusps. This class of spaces includes all non-compact hyperbolic spaces of finite volume, but we do not assume…

Given a cooriented branched surface $\mathcal B$ fully carrying a foliation $\mathcal F$, we use the dual graph of $\mathcal B$ to define a simplicial 1-cycle $\Gamma_m(\mathcal B)$ representing the Poincar\'e dual of the Euler class of…

For a closed Riemannian manifold we extend the definition of analytic and Reidemeister torsion associated to an orthogonal representation of fundamental group on a Hilbert module of finite type over a finite von Neumann algebra. If the…

We give a short introduction to the theory of twisted Alexander polynomials of a 3--manifold associated to a representation of its fundamental group. We summarize their formal properties and we explain their relationship to twisted…

In (2+1)-dimensional general relativity, the path integral for a manifold $M$ can be expressed in terms of a topological invariant, the Ray-Singer torsion of a flat bundle over $M$. For some manifolds, this makes an explicit computation of…

Earlier, there were defined two generalized (``motivic'') versions of the Poincar\'e series of a collection of plane valuations on the algebra ${\mathcal O}_{{\mathbb C}^2,0}$ of germs of holomorphic functions in two variables. One of them…

The incompressible Euler equations on a compact Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ take the form \begin{align*} \partial_t u + \nabla_u u &= - \mathrm{grad}_g p \mathrm{div}_g u &= 0. \end{align*} We show that any quadratic ODE $\partial_t y =…

We show an equation of Euler characteristics of tautological sheaves on Hilbert schemes of points on the fibers of a double point degeneration. This equation resembles a computation of such Euler characteristics via a combinatorial…
