We prove that the Steinberg module of the special linear group of a quadratic imaginary number ring which is not Euclidean is not generated by integral apartments. Assuming the generalized Riemann hypothesis, this shows that the Steinberg module of a number ring is generated by integral apartments if and only if the ri…

Study on cohomology of special linear groups over Euclidean number rings.

Generalized Steinberg module presentation for Gaussian and Eisenstein integers.

In this paper we compute a presentation for the group of ring motions of the split union of a Hopf link with Euclidean components and a Euclidean circle. A key part of this work is the study of a short exact sequence of groups of ring motions of general ring links in $\mathbb{R}^3$. This sequence allowed us to build th…

Projective resolves symplectic Steinberg module for number rings.

We prove that for any euclidean ring R and n at least 6, Gamma=SL_n(R) has no unbounded quasi-homomorphisms. From Bavard's duality theorem, this means that the stable commutator length vanishes on Gamma. The result is particularly interesting for R = F[x] for a certain field F (such as the field C of complex numbers, b…

The goal of this article is to show that five explicitly given transformations, a rotation, two screw Heisenberg rotations, a vertical translation and an involution generate the Euclidean Picard modular groups with coefficient in the Euclidean ring of integers of a quadratic imaginary number field. We also obtain the r…

In this article, we continue the classification of finite type Gauss map surfaces in the Euclidean 3-space E3 with respect to the first fundamental form by studying a subclass of tubes, namely the anchor rings. We show that anchor rings are of infinite type Gauss map.

A C-infinity ring is a set equipped with n-ary operations corresponding to smooth n-ary functions on the real line (satisfying natural axioms). We prove that the cosimplicial abelian group associated to the de Rham complex of Euclidean space has the structure of a cosimplicial C-infinity ring. We also analyse the notio…

A new algorithm simplifies number theory and geometry problems.

Let $X$ be an $n$-dimensional manifold and $V_1, \ldots, V_n \subset C^\infty(X, \mathbb R)$ finite-dimensional vector spaces with Euclidean metric. We assign to each $V_i$ a Finsler ellipsoid, i.e., a family of ellipsoids in the fibers of the cotangent bundle of $X$. We prove that the average number of isolated common…

The main result in this paper is that the space of all smooth links in Euclidean 3-space isotopic to the trivial link of n components has the same homotopy type as its finite-dimensional subspace consisting of configurations of n unlinked Euclidean circles (the "rings" in the title). There is also an analogous result f…

Proves Riemannian starshape of capacitary potential levels.

For each geometrically finite 2-dimensional non-Euclidean crystallographic group (NEC group), we compute the cohomology groups. In the case where the group is a Fuchsian group, we also determine the ring structure of the cohomology.

Study shows Steinberg representation's multiplicity in cohomology of congruence subgroups.

We determine the structure of the Hodge ring, a natural object encoding the Hodge numbers of all compact Kaehler manifolds. As a consequence of this structure, there are no unexpected relations among the Hodge numbers, and no essential differences between the Hodge numbers of smooth complex projective varieties and tho…

This is an expository article of our work on analogies between knot theory and algebraic number theory. We shall discuss foundational analogies between knots and primes, 3-manifolds and number rings mainly from the group-theoretic point of view.

A new invariant of Poisson manifolds, a Poisson K-ring, is introduced. Hypothetically, this invariant is more tractable than such invariants as Poisson (co)homology. A version of this invariant is also defined for arbitrary algebroids. Basic properties of the Poisson K-ring are proved and the Poisson K-rings are calcul…

The Habiro ring of a number field uses power series to study algebraic K-theory.

In this paper, we prove various results on the topology of the Grassmannian of oriented 3-planes in Euclidean 6-space and compute its cohomology ring. We give self-contained proofs. These spaces come up when studying submanifolds of manifolds with calibrated geometries. We collect these results here for the sake of com…

The ideal of relations in the (small) quantum cohomology ring of the generalized flag manifold $G/B$ has been determined by B. Kim. We are going to point out a limited number of properties that, if they are satisfied by an $R[q_1,...,q_l]$-bilinear product $\circ$ on $H^*(G/B)\otimes R[q_1,...,q_l$, then the ring $(H^*…

We show that the Novikov-Shubin invariant of an element of the integral group ring of the lamplighter group Z_2 \wr Z can be irrational. This disproves a conjecture of Lott and Lueck. Furthermore we show that every positive real number is equal to the Novikov-Shubin invariant of some element of the real group ring of Z…

New formulas link Milnor invariants to Heegaard Floer homology.

Defines map from skein module to Habiro ring for quantum modularity.

We study the universal character ring of some families of one-relator groups. As an application, we calculate the universal character ring of two-generator one-relator groups whose relators are palindrome, and, in particular, of the (-2,2m+1,2n+1)-pretzel knot for all integers m and n. For the (-2,3,2n+1)-pretzel knot,…

Let $R$ be an infinite commutative ring with identity and $n\geq 2$ be an integer. We prove that for each integer $i=0,1,\cdots ,n-2,$ the $L^{2}$-Betti number $b_{i}^{(2)}(G)=0,$ $\$when $G=\mathrm{GL}_{n}(R)$ the general linear group, $\mathrm{SL}_{n}(R)$ the special linear group, $$ the group generated by…

Chevalley's theorem and it's converse, the Sheppard-Todd theorem, assert that finite reflection groups are distinguished by the fact that the ring of invariant polynomials is freely generated. We show that in the Euclidean case, a weaker condition suffices to characterize finite reflection groups, namely that a freely-…

We study the interplay between the minimal representations of the orthogonal Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{so}(n+2,\mathbb{C})$ and the \emph{algebra of symmetries} $\mathscr{S}(\Box^r)$ of powers of the Laplacian $\Box$ on $\mathbb{C}^{n}$. The connection is made through the construction of highest weight repres…

The paper explores existence of specific almost complex manifolds with unique Betti numbers.

A new tensor ring mixture model improves density estimation efficiency.

The one-skeleton of a G-manifold M is the set of points p in M where $\dim G_p \geq \dim G -1$; and M is a GKM manifold if the dimension of this one-skeleton is 2. Goresky, Kottwitz and MacPherson show that for such a manifold this one-skeleton has the structure of a ``labeled" graph, $(Γ, α)$, and that the equivariant…

An Alexander self-dual complex gives rise to a compactification of $M_{0,n}$, called ASD compactification, which is a smooth algebraic variety. ASD compactifications include (but are not exhausted by) the polygon spaces, or the moduli spaces of flexible polygons. We present an explicit description of the Chow rings of …

The paper describes hyperkähler geometry of cotangent bundles using rank-1 projections.

Researchers lift knot coloring polynomial to Habiro ring.

S. Nelson, M. Orrison, V. Rivera {\cite{S}} modified Kauffman's construction of bracket. Their invariant $Φ^β_X$ takes value in a finite ring $Z_2[t]/(1+t+t^3)$. In this paper, the author generalizes this invariant. The new invariant takes value in a polynomial ring. Furthermore, for a tricolorable link diagram, the au…

The paper studies tautological rings of strata of differentials, proving cohomological stability and no relations in specific degrees.

New discrete cmc surfaces defined from sphere packings and combinatorics.

The Arnold conjecture is proven for integers using Floer theory.

In this paper we continue the study of generic properties of the Novikov complex, began in the work "The incidence coefficients in the Novikov complex are generically rational functions" ( dg-ga/9603006). For a Morse map $f:M\to S^1$ there is a refined version of Novikov complex, defined over the Novikov completion of …

Existence of Kähler-Einstein metrics on toric varieties proven.

Euclidean volumes of hyperbolic knots are algebraic numbers.

A long-standing conjecture due to Michael Freedman asserts that the 4-dimensional topological surgery conjecture fails for non-abelian free groups, or equivalently that a family of canonical examples of links (the generalized Borromean rings) are not A-B slice. A stronger version of the conjecture, that the Borromean r…

We give new counterexamples to a question of Karsten Grove, whether there are only finitely many rational homotopy types among simply connected manifolds satisfying the assumptions of Gromov's Betti number theorem. Our counterexamples are homogeneous Riemannian manifolds, in contrast to previous ones. They consist of t…

Low-rank tensor completion recovers missing entries based on different tensor decompositions. Due to its outstanding performance in exploiting some higher-order data structure, low rank tensor ring has been applied in tensor completion. To further deal with its sensitivity to sparse component as it does in tensor princ…

The paper explores zero-divisors and idempotents in quandle rings, proving their absence in certain cases.

Given any oriented link diagram, two types of new knot invariants are constructed. They satisfy some generalized skein relations. The coefficients of each invariant is from a commutative ring. Homomorphisms and representations of those rings define new link invariants. For example, the HOMFLYPT polynomial with three va…

The dth symmetric product of a curve of genus g is a smooth projective variety. This paper is concerned with the little quantum cohomology ring of this variety, that is, the ring having its 3-point Gromov-Witten invariants as structure constants. This is of considerable interest, for example as the base ring of the qua…

We consider the moduli spaces $\mathcal{M}_d(\ell)$ of a closed linkage with n links and prescribed lengths in d-dimensional Euclidean space. For d>3 these spaces are no longer manifolds generically, but they have the structure of a pseudomanifold. We use intersection homology to assign a ring to these spaces that can …
