Cosmologists are taking a renewed interest in multiconnected spherical 3-manifolds (spherical spaceforms) as possible models for the physical universe. To understand the formation of large scale structures in such a universe, cosmologists…

From the homotopy groups of three distinct octahedral spherical 3-manifolds we construct the isomorphic groups H of deck transformations acting on the 3-sphere. The H-invariant polynomials on the 3-sphere constructed by representation…

The vector space $V^k$ of the eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on the three sphere $S^3$, corresponding to the same eigenvalue $lambda_k = -k (k +2)$, has dimension $(k + 1)^2$. After recalling the standard bases for $V^k$, we introduce a…

The possibility that our space is multi - rather than singly - connected has gained a renewed interest after the discovery of the low power for the first multipoles of the CMB by WMAP. To test the possibility that our space is a…

Cosmological models where spatial sections are the Poincar\'e dodecahedral space D have been recently invoked to give an account of the lower modes of the angular anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background. Further explorations of this…

The eigenmodes of the Poincar\'e dodecahedral 3-manifold $M$ are constructed as eigenstates of a novel invariant operator. The topology of $M$ is characterized by the homotopy group $\pi_1(M)$, given by loop composition on $M$, and by the…

We provide a new construction of the modes of the Poincare dodecahedral space S^3/I*. The construction uses the Hopf map, Maxwell's multipole vectors and orbifolds. In particular, the *235-orbifold serves as a parameter space for the modes…

This article investigates the computation of the eigenmodes of the Laplacian operator in multi-connected three-dimensional spherical spaces. General mathematical results and analytical solutions for lens and prism spaces are presented.…

We build a family of explicit one-forms on $S^3$ which are shown to form a complete set of eigenmodes for the Laplace-de Rahm operator.

In three space dimensions, when a physical system possesses spherical symmetry, the dynamical equations automatically lead to the Legendre and the associated Legendre equations, with the respective orthogonal polynomials as their standard…

We propose a way to derive polynomial invariants of closed, orientable $3$-manifolds from Heegaard diagrams via cellularly embedded graphs. Given a Heegaard diagram of an irreducible $3$-manifold $M$, we associate a Heegaard graph $G\subset…

We present a simple algorithm for finding eigenmodes of the Laplacian for arbitrary compact hyperbolic 3-manifolds. We apply our algorithm to a sample of twelve manifolds and generate a list of the lowest eigenvalues. We also display a…

The necessary and sufficient conditions for a perfect fluid solution to define a spatially-homogeneous cosmology are achieved. These conditions are Intrinsic, Deductive, Explicit and ALgorithmic, and they offer an IDEAL labeling of these…

We obtain an explicit formula for the Poincare duality isomorphism H^{n-3}(Mbar(ell)) to Z/2 for the space of isometry classes of n-gons with specified side lengths, if ell is monogenic in the sense of Hausmann-Rodriguez. This has potential…

The aim of the work is to prove the following main theorem. Theorem. Let M3 be a three-dimensional, connected, simple-connected, closed, compact, smooth manifold. Tnen the manifold M3 is diffeomorphic to the three-dimensional sphere.

Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve of genus $g\geq 2$ over the complex numbers. A holomorphic triple $(E_1,E_2,\phi)$ on $X$ consists of two holomorphic vector bundles $E_1$ and $E_2$ over $X$ and a holomorphic map $\phi:E_2 \to E_1$.…

Harmonic analysis is a tool to infer cosmic topology from the measured astrophysical cosmic microwave background CMB radiation. For overall positive curvature, Platonic spherical manifolds are candidates for this analysis. We combine the…

The 2-parameter family of certain homogeneous Lorentzian 3-manifolds which includes Minkowski 3-space and anti-de Sitter 3-space is considered. Each homogeneous Lorentzian 3-manifold in the 2-parameter family has a solvable Lie group…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve of genus $g\geq 2$ over the complex numbers. A holomorphic triple $(E_1,E_2,\phi)$ on $X$ consists of two holomorphic vector bundles $E_{1}$ and $E_{2}$ over $X$ and a holomorphic map $\phi \colon E_{2}…

We propose a numerical method to compute the inertial modes of a container with near-spherical geometry based on the fully spectral discretisation of the angular and radial directions using spherical harmonics and Gegenbauer polynomial…
