A well-known theorem of Kulikov, Persson and Pinkham states that a degeneration of a family of K3-surfaces with trivial monodromy can be completed to a smooth family. We give a simple example that an analogous statement does not hold for…
For a closed orientable connected 3-manifold $M$, its complexity $\boldsymbol{T}(M)$ is defined to be the minimal number of tetrahedra in its triangulations. Under the assumption that $M$ is prime (but not necessarily atoroidal), we…
In this short expository note, we give a detailed proof of Markov's theorem on the unsolvability of the homeomorphism problem and of the existence of unrecognizable manifolds in all dimensions larger than 3.
We give a complete proof of Thurston's Orbifold Theorem for very good 3-orbifolds of cyclic type. An orbifold is said to be very good when it has a finite cover which is a manifold. A 3-orbifold is of cyclic type if the singular set is a…
We determine the combinatorial types of all the 3-dimensional simple convex polytopes in R^3 that can be realized as mean curvature convex (or totally geodesic) Riemannian polyhedra with non-obtuse dihedral angles in Riemannian 3-manifolds…
A Heegaard diagram for a 3-manifold is regarded as a pair of simplexes in the complex of curves on a surface and a Heegaard splitting as a pair of subcomplexes generated by the equivalent diagrams. We relate geometric and combinatorial…
This monograph is on convex real projective structures on strongly tame n-orbifolds with some appropriate conditions on ends.
We prove several finiteness theorems for the normal bundles to souls in nonnegatively curved manifolds. More generally, we obtain finiteness results for open Riemannian manifolds whose topology is concentrated on compact domains of…
Fedosov's simple geometrical construction for deformation quantization of symplectic manifolds is generalized in three ways without introducing new variables: (1) The base manifold is allowed to be a supermanifold. (2) The star product does…
We survey, complete, and modify a proof, involving knot theory, of Stiefel's theorem that all orientable $3$-manifolds are parallelizable. The completion of the proof is done by using the relationship between the tangent bundle and normal…
Let $G$ be a finite group acting on a connected compact surface $\Sigma$, and $M$ be an integer homology 3-sphere. We show that if each element of $G$ is extendable over $M$ with respect to a fixed embedding $\Sigma\rightarrow M$, then $G$…
We refine the affine classification of real nets of quadrics in order to obtain generic curvature loci of regular $3$-manifolds in $\mathbb{R}^6$ and singular corank $1$ $3$-manifolds in $\mathbb{R}^5$. For this, we characterize the type of…
We study giant graviton expansions of the superconformal index of 4d orbifold/orientifold theories. In general, a giant graviton expansion is given as a multiple sum over wrapping numbers. It has been known that the expansion can be reduced…
We construct a hyperbolic three-manifold with trivial finite type invariants up to a given degree.
In this expository paper, we first review the classification of the restricted simple Lie algebras in characteristic different from 2 and 3 and then we describe their infinitesimal deformations. We conclude by indicating some possible…
We give new lower bounds for the (higher) topological complexity of a space, in terms of the Lusternik-Schnirelmann category of a certain auxiliary space. We also give new lower bounds for the rational topological complexity of a space, and…
We show that any collection of n-dimensional orbifolds with sectional curvature and volume uniformly bounded below, diameter bounded above, and with only isolated singular points contains orbifolds of only finitely many orbifold…
The notions Golodness and tightness for simplicial complexes come from algebra and geometry, respectively. We prove these two notions are equivalent for 3-manifold triangulations, through a topological characterization of a polyhedral…
We study normal CR compact manifolds in dimension 3. For a choice of a CR Reeb vector field, we associate a Sasakian metric on them, and we classify those metrics. As a consequence, the underlying manifolds are topologically finite quotiens…
Motivated by Kontsevich's graph complexes, this paper gives a systematic study of matroid complexes. We construct deletion and contraction bicomplexes on the vector space spanned by matroid classes equipped with ground-set orientations,…
