This is a sequel to [arXiv:1708.09092v2]. For an oriented trivalent graph $G$ without source or sink embedded in $S^3$, we prove that the $\mathfrak{gl}(1| 1)$-Alexander polynomial $\underline{\Delta}(G, c)$ defined by Viro satisfies a…

In this paper, the principal tool to describe transversal polymatroids with Gorenstein base ring is polyhedral geometry, especially the $Danilov-Stanley$ theorem for the characterization of canonical module. Also, we compute the…

A Delta-groupoid is an algebraic structure which axiomatizes the combinatorics of a truncated tetrahedron. By considering two simplest examples coming from knot theory, we illustrate how can one associate a Delta-groupoid to an ideal…

We introduce a $\mathbb{C}/\mathbb{Z}$-valued invariant of a foliated manifold with a stable framing and with a partially flat vector bundle. This invariant can be expressed in terms of integration in differential $K$-theory, or…

Using a modified foam evaluation, we give a categorification of the Alexander polynomial of a knot. We also give a purely algebraic version of this knot homology which makes it appear as the infinite page of a spectral sequence starting at…

We present a new conjectural symmetry of the colored Alexander polynomial, that is the specialization of the quantum $\mathfrak{sl}_N$ invariant widely known as the colored HOMFLY-PT polynomial. We provide arguments in support of the…

Border bases arise as a canonical generalization of Gr\"obner bases. We provide a polyhedral characterization of all order ideals (and hence border bases) that are supported by a zero-dimensional ideal: order ideals that support a border…

We consider the classification problem and focus on nonlinear methods for classification on manifolds. For multivariate datasets lying on an embedded nonlinear Riemannian manifold within the higher-dimensional ambient space, we aim to…

Given a finitely-generated group G, and a finite group \Gamma, Philip Hall defined \delta_\Gamma to be the number of factor groups of G that are isomorphic to \Gamma. We show how to compute the Hall invariants by cohomological and…

A topological invariant of a polynomial map $p:X\to B$ from a complex surface containing a curve $C\subset X$ to a one-dimensional base is given by a rational second homology class in the compactification of the moduli space of genus $g$…

Bordered Heegaard Floer homology is an invariant for 3-manifolds, which associates to a surface F an algebra A(Z), and to a 3-manifold Y with boundary, together with an orientation-preserving diffeomorphism \phi from F to \bdy Y, a module…

We study a computational method of the hyperbolic Reidemeister torsion (also called in the literature the non-abelian Reidemeister torsion) induced by J. Porti for complete hyperbolic three-dimensional manifolds with cusps. The derivative…

We give upper and lower bounds on the leading coefficients of the $L^2$-Alexander torsions of a $3$-manifold $M$ in terms of hyperbolic volumes and of relative $L^2$-torsions of sutured manifolds obtained by cutting $M$ along certain…

This paper studies signed graphs with possible outer-edges. We introduce and investigate the chain group, the boundary operator, the co-boundary operator, the flow group, the tension group, the homology group, the cohomology group, with…

In this survey, we describe invariants that can be used to distinguish connected components of the moduli space of holonomy G_2 metrics on a closed 7-manifold, or to distinguish G_2-manifolds that are homeomorphic but not diffeomorphic. We…

Finite-order invariants of knots in arbitrary 3-manifolds (including non-orientable ones) are constructed and studied by methods of the topology of discriminant sets. Obstructions to the integrability of admissible weight systems to…

The Alexander polynomial of a knot has been generalized in three different ways to give twisted invariants. The resulting invariants are usually referred to as twisted Alexander polynomials, higher-order Alexander polynomials and…

We introduce an Alexander polynomial for MOY graphs. For a framed trivalent MOY graph $\mathbb{G}$, we refine the construction and obtain a framed ambient isotopy invariant $\Delta_{(\mathbb{G},c)}(t)$. The invariant $\Delta_{(\mathbb{G},…

For a hyperbolic knot and a natural number n, we consider the Alexander polynomial twisted by the n-th symmetric power of a lift of the holonomy. We establish the asymptotic behavior of these twisted Alexander polynomials evaluated at unit…

We discuss in this paper combinatorial aspects of boundary loop models, that is models of self-avoiding loops on a strip where loops get different weights depending on whether they touch the left, the right, both or no boundary. These…
