Study shows how any group can be fundamental of a non-orientable 4-manifold with exotic structure.

problem Realizing any finitely presented group as the fundamental group of a non-orientable 4-manifold with exotic structure.
method Performing a Gluck twist to obtain an exotic smooth structure, and using 2-covers to stabilize the structure.
result Any finitely presented group can be realized as the fundamental group of a non-orientable 4-manifold with exotic structure.

We classify compact homogeneous geometries of irreducible spherical type and rank at least 2 which admit a transitive action of a compact connected group, up to equivariant 2-coverings. We apply our classification to polar actions on compact symmetric spaces.

It is known that the linking form on the 2-cover of slice knots has a metabolizer. We show that several weaker conditions, or some other conditions related to sliceness, do not imply the existence of a metabolizer. We then show how the Rudolph-Bennequin inequality can be used indirectly to prove that some knots are not…

We use the symbol calculus for foliations developed in our previous paper to derive a cohomological formula for the Connes-Chern character of the semi-finite spectral triple. The same proof works for the Type I spectral triple of Connes-Moscovici. The cohomology classes of the two Connes-Chern characters induce the sam…

In this paper, we investigate existence of inequivalent smooth structures on closed smooth non-orientable 4-manifolds building upon results of Akbulut, Cappell-Shaneson, Fintushel-Stern, Gompf, and Stolz. We add to the number of known constructions and provide new examples of exotic manifolds that are obtained as an ap…

The study proves a discrete Blaschke theorem for convex polygons in 2-dimensional space forms.

problem Investigating curvature and circumradius constraints for convex polygons in 2-space forms.
method Defining curvature at each vertex and proving a Blaschke-type theorem.
result The circumradius of a convex polygon satisfies a specific inequality related to its vertex curvatures.

We show that the pluriclosed flow preserves generalized Kähler structures with the extra condition [J+,J]=0[J_+,J_-] = 0, a condition referred to as "split tangent bundle." Moreover, we show that in this in this case the flow reduces to a nonconvex fully nonlinear parabolic flow of a scalar potential function. We prove a num…
