In this note we give a complete obstruction for two homotopic embeddings of a 2-sphere into a 5-manifold to be isotopic. The results are new even though the methods are classical, the main tool being the elimination of double points via a…

We study the spaces of embeddings of manifolds in a Euclidean space. More precisely we look at the homotopy fiber of the inclusion of these spaces to the spaces of immersions. As a main result we express the rational homotopy type of…

This paper is the fourth in a series where we describe the space of all embedded minimal surfaces of fixed genus in a fixed (but arbitrary) closed 3-manifold. The key is to understand the structure of an embedded minimal disk in a ball in…

We prove that if two conformal embeddings between Riemann surfaces with finite topology are homotopic, then they are isotopic through conformal embeddings. Furthermore, we show that the space of all conformal embeddings in a given homotopy…

This paper is the second in a series where we attempt to give a complete description of the space of all embedded minimal surfaces of fixed genus in a fixed (but arbitrary) closed 3-manifold. The key for understanding such surfaces is to…

Let $M$ be a simply connected closed manifold of dimension $n$. We study the rational homotopy type of the configuration space of 2 points in $M$, $F(M,2)$. When $M$ is even dimensional, we prove that the rational homotopy type of $F(M,2)$…

We restrict our discussion to the orientable category. For $g > 1$, let $OE_g$ be the maximum order of a finite group $G$ acting on the closed surface $\Sigma_g$ of genus $g$ which extends over $(S^3, \Sigma_g)$, where the maximum is taken…

This paper is concerned with proving some embeddings of the form \begin{equation*} F_{p_{1},q}^{s_{1}}\cdot B_{p_{2},\infty }^{s_{2}}\cdot ...\cdot B_{p_{m},\infty }^{s_{m}}\hookrightarrow F_{p,q}^{s_{1}},\quad m\geq 2. \end{equation*} The…

A polyhedron in Euclidean 3-space is called a regular polyhedron of index 2 if it is combinatorially regular and its geometric symmetry group has index 2 in its combinatorial automorphism group; thus its automorphism group is…

Given a homotopy equivalence f between two topological spaces we assemble well known pieces and unfold them into an explicit formula for a strong deformation retraction of the mapping cylinder of f onto its top.

We prove that there is an algorithm which determines whether or not a given 2-polyhedron can be embedded into some integral homology 3-sphere. This is a corollary of the following main result. Let $M$ be a compact connected orientable…

We consider two natural problems arising in geometry which are equivalent to the local solvability of specific equations of Monge-Ampere type. These two problems are: the local isometric embedding problem for two-dimensional Riemannian…

We classify rotary (orientably-regular) maps whose underlying graphs are multicycles. For the multicycle $\mathrm{C}_n^{(\lambda)}$ of length $n$ and edge-multiplicity $\lambda$, we determine all rotary embeddings for $n\geqslant 3$ and…

In this paper we examine the structure of complex points of real 4-manifolds embedded into complex 3-manifolds up to isotopy. We show that there are only two types of complex points up to isotopy and as a consequence, show that any such…

We investigate spaces of symplectic embeddings of $n\leq 4$ balls into the complex projective plane. We prove that they are homotopy equivalent to explicitly described algebraic subspaces of the configuration spaces of $n$ points. We…

We prove convergence of Goodwillie-Weiss' embedding calculus for spaces of embeddings into a manifold of dimension at most two, so in particular for diffeomorphisms between surfaces. We also relate the Johnson filtration of the mapping…

A periodic automorphism of a surface $\Sigma$ is said to be extendable over $S^3$ if it extends to a periodic automorphism of the pair $(S^3,\Sigma)$ for some possible embedding $\Sigma\to S^3$. We classify and construct all extendable…

This paper concerns rigidity of the mapping class groups. We show that any homomorphism $\phi:{\rm Mod}_g\to {\rm Mod}_h$ between mapping class groups of closed orientable surfaces with distinct genera $g>h$ is trivial if $g\geq 3$ and has…

We study generic conformally flat (local-)hypersurfaces in the Euclidean 4-space $\mathbb{R}^4$. Such a hypersurface $f$ has the dual (hypersurface) $f^*$ in $\mathbb{R}^4$, which is also generic and conformally flat. By repeating the…

Motivated by problems arising in the complex analysis of perturbative quantum field theory, we investigate the homology of finite unions of certain non-degenerate quadratic affine hypersurfaces of complex dimension $n$ in general position.…
