相关论文: Lecture notes on generalized Heegaard splittings

The present lectures were prepared for the Faro International Summer School on Factorization and Integrable Systems in September 2000. They were intended for participants with the background in Analysis and Operator Theory but without…

The aim of this article is twofold: firstly, we show how to recover the smooth Deligne-Beilinson cohomology groups from a Heegaard splitting of a closed oriented smooth 3-manifold by extending the usual \tch-de Rham construction; secondly,…

This paper gives a leisurely introduction to Calabi-Yau manifolds and special Lagrangian submanifolds from the differential geometric point of view, followed by a survey of recent results on singularities of special Lagrangian submanifolds,…

This lecture note surveys the gamma matrices in general dimensions with arbitrary signatures, the study of which is essential to understand the supersymmetry in the corresponding spacetime. The contents supplement the lecture presented by…

We examine three key conjectures in 3-manifold theory: the virtually Haken conjecture, the positive virtual b_1 conjecture and the virtually fibred conjecture. We explore the interaction of these conjectures with the following seemingly…

These notes are meant to provide a rapid introduction to triangulated categories. We start with the definition of an additive category and end with a glimps of tilting theory. Some exercises are included.

These notes were compiled as lecture notes for a course developed and taught at the University of the Southern California. They should be accessible to a typical engineering graduate student with a strong background in Applied Mathematics.…

This is a series of three lectures I gave at the Korea Institute of Advanced Study in June 2019 at a workshop about "Algebraic and Symplectic Aspects of Degenerations of Complex Surfaces". I focus on the symplectic aspects, in particular on…

These are lecture notes compiled for a short lecture series at the 2023 Condensed Matter Summer School at the University of Minnesota. They are designed to be conversational and fun, and not to take the place of review articles that do a…

These notes represent a much expanded and updated version of the \textquotedblleft mini course\textquotedblright that the author gave at the ETH (Z\"{u}rich) and the University of Z\"{u}rich in February of 1995. The purpose of these notes…

The aim of this short lecture series is to expose the students to the beautiful theory of lattices by, on one hand, demonstrating various basic ideas that appear in this theory and, on the other hand, formulating some of the celebrated…

This paper is an extended version of four lectures at PIMS in Vancouver given June 27 - 30, 2016. The primary goal of these lectures was to publicize the author's recent efforts to extend to representations of linear algebraic groups the…

We show that if the Hempel distance of a Heegaard splitting is larger than three then the mapping class group of the Heegaard splitting is isomorphic to a subgroup of the mapping class group of the ambient 3-manifold. This implies that…

Small covers arising from 3-dimensional simple polytopes are an interesting class of 3-manifolds. The fundamental group is a rigid invariant for wide classes of 3-manifolds, particularly for orientable Haken manifolds, which include…

This is lecture notes for a course given at the PCMI Summer School "Quantum Field Theory and Manifold Invariants" (July 1 -- July 5, 2019). I describe basics of gauge-theoretic approach to construction of invariants of manifolds. The main…

These notes are based on lectures given in Valencia in October 2008 and in Stockholm in November 2008, in the framework of the Nordita workshop "Geometrical aspects of String Theory". We introduce the notion of a metric 3-Lie algebra and…

These notes were prepared for a series of intensive lectures delivered at Hokkaido University, Nagoya University, Kyoto University, and Kyushu University. We begin with a brief review of higher-form symmetries, anomalies, and discrete gauge…

These lecture notes are meant to serve as an introduction to some geometric constructions and techniques (in particular the ones of toric geometry) often employed by the physicist working on string theory compactifications. The emphasis is…

v1: In this paper, we will give an elementary proof by the Heegaard splittings of the 3-dimentional Poincare conjecture in point of view of PL topology. This paper is of the same theory in [4](1983) excluding the last three lines of the…

In this lecture note, we give a basic introduction to the rapidly developing concepts of generalized symmetries, from the perspectives of both high energy physics and condensed matter physics. In particular, we emphasize on the (invertible)…
