In recent work, the authors developed a simple method of constructing topological spaces from certain well-behaved partially ordered sets -- those coming from sequences of relations between finite sets. This method associates a given poset…

The geometry of the moduli space of stable spin curves is studied, with emphasis on its combinatorial properties. In this context, the standard graph theoretic framework is not just a book-keeping device: some purely combinatorial results…

Given a simplicial complex $X$, we construct a simplicial complex $\Omega X$ that may be regarded as a combinatorial version of the based loop space of a topological space. Our construction explicitly describes the simplices of $\Omega X$…

A degree-regular triangulation is one in which each vertex has identical degree. Our main result is that any such triangulation of a (possibly non-compact) surface $S$ is geometric, that is, it is combinatorially equivalent to a geodesic…

Simplicial arrangements are classical objects in discrete geometry. Their classification remains an open problem but there is a list conjectured to be complete at least for rank three. A further important class in the theory of hyperplane…

We prove that if a contact 3-manifold admits an open book decomposition of genus 0, a certain intersection pattern cannot appear in the homology of any of its minimal symplectic fillings, and moreover, fillings cannot contain symplectic…

We explore connections between stellar moves on simplicial complexes (these are fundamental operations of combinatorial topology) and projective Fra{\"i}ss{\'e} limits (this is a model theoretic construction with topological applications).…

We introduce a simple procedure to integrate differential forms with arbitrary holomorphic poles on Riemann surfaces. It gives rise to an intrinsic regularization of such singular integrals in terms of the underlying conformal geometry.…

We define a natural compactification of an arrangement complement in a ball quotient. We show that when this complement has a moduli space interpretation, then this compactification is often one that appears naturally by means of geometric…

We consider principal fibre bundles with a given connection and construct almost complex structures on the total space if the adjoint bundle is isomorphic to the tangent bundle of the base. We derive the integrability condition. If the…

Singular fibrations generalize achiral Lefschetz fibrations of 4-manifolds over surfaces while sharing some of their properties. For instance, relatively minimal singular fibrations are determined by their monodromy. We explain how to…

We give infinite series of groups Gamma and of compact complex surfaces of general type S with fundamental group Gamma such that 1) Any surface S' with the same Euler number as S, and fundamental group Gamma, is diffeomorphic to S. 2) The…

This paper is a continuation of our work on a conjecture of Almgren on area-minimizing surfaces with fractal singular sets. First, we prove that area-minimizing surfaces with fractal singular sets are prevalent on the homology level on…

We define and study a class of finite topological spaces, which model the cell structure of a space obtained by gluing finitely many Euclidean convex polyhedral cells along congruent faces. We call these finite topological spaces,…

We classify all harmonic maps with finite uniton number from a Riemann surface into an arbitrary compact simple Lie group $G$, whether $G$ has trivial centre or not, in terms of certain pieces of the Bruhat decomposition of the group…

This article introduces a finite piecewise Euclidean cell complex homeomorphic to the space of monic centered complex polynomials of degree $d$ whose critical values lie in a fixed closed rectangular region. We call this the branched…

The classical Theorem of Mumford states that a topologically regular complex algebraic surface in $\mathbb{C}^3$ with an isolated singular point is smooth. We proof that any Lipschitz regular complex algebraic set is smooth. No restriction…

We prove a result describing the structure of the formal neighborhoods of certain arcs in the arc space of an algebraic variety which are completely contained in the singular locus. In particular, we provide a precise formulation of the…

Unimodal (i.e. single-humped) permutations may be decomposed into a product of disjoint cycles. Some enumerative results concerning their cyclic structure -- e.g. 2/3 of them contain fixed points -- are given. We also obtain in effect a…

An arrangement of pseudocircles is a finite set of oriented closed Jordan curves each two of which cross each other in exactly two points. To describe the combinatorial structure of arrangements on closed orientable surfaces, in (Linhart,…
