In this paper we are dealing with mean curvature flow with surgeries of two-convex hypersurfaces. The main focus is to expand on the discussion in Section $3$ of Mean Curvature Flow with Surgeries of Two-Convex Hypersurfaces by Huisken and…

Let $\{D_i\}_{i=1}^{n+1}$ be $n+1$ hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{P}^n(\mathbb{C})$ with total degrees $\sum_{i=1}^{n+1} \deg D_i\geqslant n+2$, in general position and satisfying a generic geometric condition: every $n$ hypersurfaces intersect…

Cappell and Shaneson pointed out in 1978 interesting properties of Browder - Livesay invariants which are similar to differentials in some spectral sequence. Such spectral sequence was constructed in 1991 by Hambleton and Kharshiladze. This…

We describe a new relation between the topology of hypersurface complements, Milnor fibers and degree of gradient mappings. In particular we show that any projective hypersurface has affine parts which are bouquets of spheres. The main…

We consider 5d supersymmetric gauge theories with unitary groups in the $\Omega$-background and study codim-2/4 BPS defects supported on orthogonal planes intersecting at the origin along a circle. The intersecting defects arise upon…

We consider surgery moves along (n+1)-component Brunnian links in compact connected oriented 3-manifolds, where the framing of the each component is 1/k for k in Z. We show that no finite type invariant of degree < 2n-2 can detect such a…

Let $X, Y \subset \mathbb{C}^{2n-1}$ be $n$-dimensional strong complete intersections in a general position. In this note, we consider the set of midpoints of chords connecting a point $x \in X$ to a point $y \in Y$. This set is defined as…

In two previous papers, the two first-named authors introduced a notion of contact r-surgery along Legendrian knots in contact 3-manifolds. They also showed how (at least in principle) to convert any contact r-surgery into a sequence of…

This paper aims to give some examples of diffeomorphic (or homeomorphic) low-dimensional complete intersections, which can be considered as a geometrical realization of classification theorems about complete intersections. A conjecture of…

We show that for a wide class of manifold pairs N, M satisfying dim(M) = dim(N) + 1, every \pi_1-injective map f : N --> M factorises up to homotopy as a finite cover of an embedding. This result, in the spirit of Waldhausen's torus…

If the vacuum manifold of a field theory has the appropriate topological structure, the theory admits topological structures analogous to the D-branes of string theory, in which defects of one dimension terminate on other defects of higher…

To determine the relative position of any two surfaces in a system, one approach is to useoperations (Minkowski sum and intersection) on sets of constraints. These constraints aremade compliant with half-spaces of R^n where each set of…

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…

A generalized-homology bordism-theory is constructed, such that for certain manifold homotopy stratified sets (MHSS; Quinn-spaces) homeomorphism-invariant geometric fundamental-classes exist. The construction combines three ideas: Firstly,…

We introduce an infinite variant of hypersurface support for finite-dimensional, noncommutative complete intersections. By a noncommutative complete intersection we mean an algebra R which admits a smooth deformation $Q\to R$ by a…

For a given pair of maps f,g:X->M from an arbitrary topological space to an n-manifold, the Lefschetz homomorphism is a certain graded homomorphism L:H(X)->H(M) of degree (-n). We prove a Lefschetz-type coincidence theorem: if the Lefschetz…

We establish a $d$-invariant surgery formula for $L$-space knots that provides an effective tool for studying surgeries between lens spaces. Using this formula, we classify distance one surgeries between lens spaces of the form $L(n,1)$.…

Kendall's Shape Theory covers shapes formed by $N$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$ upon quotienting out the similarity transformations. This theory is based on the geometry and topology of the corresponding configuration space: shape space.…

The goal of this book is to characterize algebraically the closed 4-manifolds that fibre nontrivially or admit geometries in the sense of Thurston, or which are obtained by surgery on 2-knots, and to provide a reference for the topology of…

A new topological invariant of closed connected orientable four-dimensional manifolds is proposed. The invariant, constructed via surgery on a special link, is a four-dimensional counterpart of the celebrated SU(2) three-manifold invariant…
