We introduce spherical T-duality, which relates pairs of the form $(P,H)$ consisting of a principal $SU(2)$-bundle $P\rightarrow M$ and a 7-cocycle $H$ on $P$. Intuitively spherical T-duality exchanges $H$ with the second Chern class…
In this paper, we investigate the varieties $\mathbf M_n$ and $\mathbf K_n$ of regular pseudocomplemented de Morgan and Kleene algebras of range $n$, respectively. Priestley duality as it applies to pseudocomplemented de Morgan algebras is…
Let $R$ be a two-dimensional regular local ring. In this paper, we prove that there is a bijection between the set of all valuations of $Quot(R)$ centered at $R$ and valuations of $k(x,y)$ centered at $k[x,y]_{(x,y)}$, where $k$ is the…
M. Freedman showed that every homology 3-sphere embeds as a locally flat submanifold of $S^4$. This is in striking contrast to the state of our knowledge of smooth embeddings of homology spheres. This book surveys what is presently known…
Let M be a compact Sasakian manifold. We show that M admits a CR-embedding into a Sasakian manifold diffeomorphic to a sphere, and this embedding is compatible with the respective Reeb fields. We argue that a stronger embedding theorem…
In this paper we study 1/k-geodesics, those closed geodesics that minimize on any subinterval of length $L/k$, where $L$ is the length of the geodesic. We investigate the existence and behavior of these curves on doubled polygons and show…
The regular embeddings of complete bipartite graphs $K_{n,n}$ in orientable surfaces are classified and enumerated, and their automorphism groups and combinatorial properties are determined. The method depends on earlier classifications in…
In this article, we consider the bipartite graphs $K_2 \times K_n$. We first show that the connectedness of $\mathcal{N}(K_{n+1}^{K_n}) =0$. Further, we show that $\text{Hom}(K_2 \times K_{n}, K_{m})$ is homotopic to $S^{m-2}$, if $2\leq m…
We present a class of orthogonal non-regular in a sense of Kalnins and Miller (hence non-St\"ackel) coordinates which are R-separable in 3-dim. Helmholtz equation. One family of parametric surfaces consists of parallel Dupin cyclides, the…
It follows from the 2004 work of the first author, X.Huang, and D. Zaitsev that any local CR embedding $f$ of a strictly psedoconvex hypersurface $M^{2n+1}\subset\bC^{n+1}$ into the sphere $\bS^{2N+1}\subset \bC^{N+1}$ is rigid, i.e.\ any…
We work entirely in the smooth category. An embedding $f:(S^2\times S^1)\sqcup S^3\rightarrow {\mathbb R}^6$ is {\it Brunnian}, if the restriction of $f$ to each component is isotopic to the standard embedding. For each triple of integers…
Let $a$ and $b$ be two coprime positive integers and $k$ an arbitrary field. We determine the ring structure of the Hochschild cohomology of the numerical semigroup algebras $k[s^{a},s^{b}]$ of embedding dimension two (thus also complete…
For a closed PL manifold M, we consider the configuration space F(M,k) of ordered k-tuples of distinct points in M. We show that a suitable iterated suspension of F(M,k) is a homotopy invariant of M. The number of suspensions we require…
Locally symmetric spaces like $SL(n,\mathbb Z)\backslash SL_n(\mathbb R)/SO(n)$ contain immersed compact flat manifolds of dimension equal to the real rank. We give a lower bound for the contribution of these cycles to the homology of…
The classical knot groups are the fundamental groups of the complements of smooth or piecewise-linear (PL) locally-flat knots. For PL knots that are not locally-flat, there is a pair of interesting groups to study: the fundamental group of…
We present a full geometric characterization of the $1$-dimensional (semialgebraic) images $S$ of either $n$-dimensional closed balls $\overline{\mathcal B}_n\subset{\mathbb R}^n$ or $n$-dimensional spheres ${\mathbb S}^n\subset{\mathbb…
For an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic zero and a linear algebraic $k$-group $G$, it is well known that every affine $G$-variety admits a $G$-equivariant closed embedding into a finite-dimensional $G$-module. Such an…
We study conditions under which a finite simplicial complex $K$ can be mapped to $\mathbb R^d$ without higher-multiplicity intersections. An almost $r$-embedding is a map $f: K\to \mathbb R^d$ such that the images of any $r$ pairwise…
Let $K$ be a local field whose residue field has characteristic $p$ and let $L/K$ be a finite separable totally ramified extension of degree $n=up^{\nu}$. Let $\sigma_1,\dots,\sigma_n$ denote the $K$-embeddings of $L$ into a separable…
We prove a theorem on equivariant maps implying the following two corollaries: (1) Let N and M be compact orientable n-manifolds with boundaries such that M\subset N, the inclusion M\to N induces an isomorphism in integral cohomology, both…
