We prove a sharp decoupling for non degenerate surfaces in $\R^4$. This puts the recent progress on the Lindel\"of hypothesis into a more general perspective.
This note complements our paper "Categoricity-like properties in the first order realm" (Journal for the Philosophy of Mathematics, 2024).
These are lecture notes from a mini-course taught at Winterbraids XIII (Montpellier, 2024). The main character of these notes are curves in the complex projective plane, viewed from a topological perspective.
We observe that the main theorem in \cite{KMsuture} immediately implies its analogue for closed 3--manifolds.
In this paper, we derive new adjunction inequalities for embedded surfaces with non-negative self-intersection number in four-manifolds. These formulas are proved by using relations between Seiberg-Witten invariants which are induced from…
This is a continuation of "Mirror Principle III"(math.AG/9912038).
We construct stable minimal hypersurfaces with simple topology in certain compact $4$-manifolds $X$ with boundary, where $X$ embeds into a smooth manifold homeomorphic to $S^4$. For example, if $X$ is equipped with a Riemannian metric $g$…
In this note we rectify the proof of Theorem 3.11 in [arXiv:2403.02876]. We also present a set of examples at the end discussing various cases.
We prove that compact topological 4-manifolds can be effectively presented by a finite amount of data.
We prove that the canonical 4-dimensional surgery problems can be solved after passing to a double cover. This contrasts the long-standing conjecture about the validity of the topological surgery theorem for arbitrary fundamental groups…
We give a topological interpretation of the core group invariant of a surface embedded in S^4. We show that the group is isomorphic to the free product of the fundamental group of the double branch cover of S^4 with the surface as a…
We prove a concordance version of the 4-dimensional light bulb theorem for $\pi_1$-negligible compact orientable surfaces, where there is a framed but not necessarily embedded dual sphere. That is, we show that if $F_0$ and $F_1$ are such…
We prove a centre manifold theorem for a map along a manifold-with-boundary of fixed points, and provide an application to the study of gradient descent with large step size on two-layer matrix factorisation problems.
Let T -> S be a finite flat morphism of degree two between regular integral schemes of dimension at most two (and with 2 invertible), having regular branch divisor D. We establish a bijection between Azumaya quaternion algebras on T and…
This note is about a little extension of Nash's embedding theorem in the case of complete manifolds.
We present a proof of the Moon in a puddle theorem, and use its key lemma to prove a generalization of the four-vertex theorem.
The adjunction inequality is a key tool for bounding the genus of smoothly embedded surfaces in 4-manifolds. Using gauge-theoretic invariants, many versions of this inequality have been established for both closed surfaces and surfaces with…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author due to a crucial error in the proofs. The error has been corrected and the paper has been expanded in arXiv:0910.5327
If $\Sigma$ and $\Sigma'$ are homotopic embedded surfaces in a $4$-manifold then they may be related by a regular homotopy (at the expense of introducing double points) or by a sequence of stabilisations and destabilisations (at the expense…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author due to a crucial error in last part of proof.
