Constructs Chern-Weil classes for Cartan geometries.

Study finds the volume of unit vector fields on a punctured sphere and shows their images match minimally immersed Klein bottles.

T. Kobayashi conjectured in the 36th Geometry Symposium in Japan (1989) that a homogeneous space G/H of reductive type does not admit a compact Clifford-Klein form if rank G - rank K < rank H - rank K_H. We solve this conjecture affirmatively. We apply a cohomological obstruction to the existence of compact Clifford-Kl…

We find all m-spin structures on Klein surfaces of genus larger than one. An m-spin structure on a Riemann surface P is a complex line bundle on P whose m-th tensor power is the cotangent bundle of P. A Klein surface can be described by a pair (P,tau), where P is a Riemann surface and tau is an anti-holomorphic involut…

In this paper, we continue the study of the existence problem of compact Clifford-Klein forms from a cohomological point of view, which was initiated by Kobayashi-Ono and extended by Benoist-Labourie and the author. We give an obstruction to the existence of compact Clifford-Klein forms by relating a natural homomorphi…

Research classifies knots based on sliceness and amphichirality.

Let M be a compact, connected, orientable, irreducible 3-manifold and T' an incompressible torus boundary component of M such that the pair (M,T') is not cabled. By a result of C. Gordon, if S and T are incompressible punctured tori in M with boundary on T' and boundary slopes at distance d, then d is at most 8, and th…

Origamis described using Schottky groups for surfaces of genus g ≥ 1.

Let M be a compact, connected, orientable, irreducible 3-manifold and T an incompressible torus boundary component of M such that the pair (M,T) is not cabled. In the paper "Toroidal and Klein bottle boundary slopes" [arXiv:math/0601034] by the author it was established that for any K-incompressible tori F,F' in (M,T) …

Let M be a (possibly non-orientable) compact 3-manifold with (possibly empty) boundary consisting of tori and Klein bottles. Let $X\subset\partial M$ be a trivalent graph such that $\partial M\setminus X$ is a union of one disc for each component of $\partial M$. Building on previous work of Matveev, we define for the …

In this paper we investigate the distances between Dehn fillings on a hyperbolic 3-manifold that yield 3-manifolds containing essential small surfaces including non-orientable surfaces. Especially we study the situations where one filling creates an essential sphere or projective plane, and the other creates an essenti…

A 12D spinor encodes fermions in a 4D Kaluza-Klein model.

Extends Poincaré-Lefschetz duality to pairs of ∞-categories.

High-order Klein geometries constructed using Lie algebras.

A Klein surface is a surface with a dianalytic structure. A double of a Klein surface $X$ is a Klein surface $Y$ such that there is a degree two morphism (of Klein surfaces) $Y\rightarrow X$. There are many doubles of a given Klein surface and among them the so-called natural doubles which are: the complex double, the …

Infinite Klein bottles with 4-fold meridians found.

This paper contains some results about Teichmüller spaces of non-orientable surfaces (Klein surfaces). We prove several theorems giving isomorphisms between deformation spaces of Klein surfaces. These results show the similarity between the deformation theory of Klein surfaces, and the theory of Riemann surfaces. We al…

The paper extends graph signatures to Klein graphs and foams, linking signatures to knot properties.

The paper studies diffeomorphisms of a specific foliation on a Klein bottle.

In this paper we present explicit formulas for the fundamental solution to the Klein-Gordon operator on some higher dimensional generalizations of the Möbius strip and the Klein bottle with values in distinct pinor bundles. The fundamental solution is described in terms of generalizations of the Weierstraß $\wp$-functi…

First explicit isometric immersion of a flat Klein bottle in 3D space.

New homeomorphism found in Klein bottle group.

We consider the question of how many essential Seifert Klein bottles with common boundary slope a knot in S^3 can bound, up to ambient isotopy. We prove that any hyperbolic knot in S^3 bounds at most six Seifert Klein bottles with a given boundary slope. The Seifert Klein bottles in a minimal projection of hyperbolic p…

A new framework for hyperbolic neural networks using the Klein model is introduced.

Classifies compact Clifford-Klein forms for specific Lie algebras.

We introduce real structures on $L$-twisted Higgs pairs over a compact Riemann surface equipped with an anti-holomorphic involution, and prove a Hitchin--Kobayashi correspondence for them. Real $G$-Higgs bundles, where $G$ is a real form of a connected semisimple complex affine algebraic group $G^{\mathbb{C}}$, constit…

The study sets limits on the complexity of Klein geometries.

Given a hyperelliptic Klein surface, we construct companion Klein bottles. Bavard's short loops on companion bottles are studied in relation to the surface to improve an inequality of Gromov's in systolic geometry.

Solves a problem about deforming symplectic forms on a Klein bottle.

We study the connected components of the space of higher spin bundles on hyperbolic Klein surfaces. A Klein surface is a generalisation of a Riemann surface to the case of non-orientable surfaces or surfaces with boundary. The category of Klein surfaces is isomorphic to the category of real algebraic curves. An m-spin …

No Lagrangian Klein bottles found in $S^2 imes S^2$.

New Klein-Maskit theorems for Anosov subgroups.

We study the small perturbations of the $1+3$-dimensional Milne model for the Einstein-Klein-Gordon (EKG) system. We prove the nonlinear future stability, and show that the perturbed spacetimes are future causally geodesically complete. For the proof, we work within the constant mean curvature (CMC) gauge and focus on …

We construct one-parameter families of solutions to the Einstein--Klein--Gordon equations bifurcating off the Kerr solution such that the underlying family of spacetimes are each an asymptotically flat, stationary, axisymmetric, black hole spacetime, and such that the corresponding scalar fields are non-zero and time-p…

Develops theory of d-holomorphic connections on Klein surfaces.

We investigate the Kaluza-Klein reductions to ten dimensions of the purely gravitational half-BPS M-theory backgrounds: the M-wave and the Kaluza-Klein monopole. We determine the moduli space of smooth (supersymmetric) Kaluza-Klein reductions by classifying the freely-acting spacelike Killing vectors which preserve som…

A homogeneous space G/H is said to have a compact Clifford-Klein form if there exists a discrete subgroup D of G that acts properly discontinuously on G/H, such that the quotient space D\G/H is compact. When n is even, we find every closed, connected subgroup H of G = SO(2,n), such that G/H has a compact Clifford-Klein…

We define the infinitesimal and geometric orders of an effective Klein geometry G/H. Using these concepts, we prove i) For any integer m>1, there exists an effective Klein geometry G/H of infinitesimal order m such that G/H is a projective variety (Corollary 9). ii) An effective Klein geometry G/H of geometric order M …

Study surgeries on Klein bottle knots in 3-manifolds using Heegaard Floer homology.

This article proves that the parity of the number of Klein-bottle leaves in a smooth cooriented taut foliation is invariant under smooth deformations within taut foliations, provided that every Klein-bottle leaf involved in the counting has non-trivial linear holonomy.

Let $\nabla$ be a linear connection on an $2n$-dimensional almost anti-Hermitian manifold $M$\ equipped with an almost complex structure $J$, a pseudo-Riemannian metric $g$ and the twin metric $G=g\circ J$. In this paper, we first introduce three types of conjugate connections of linear connections relative to $g$, $G…

We provide a necessary condition for the existence of a compact Clifford-Klein form of a given homogeneous space of reductive type. The key to the proof is to combine a result of Kobayashi-Ono with an elementary fact that certain two different Clifford-Klein forms have the same cohomology ring. We give some examples, S…

The goal of these lectures is to give an introduction to the study of the fundamental group of a Klein surface. We start by reviewing the topological classification of Klein surfaces and by explaining the relation with real algebraic curves. Then we introduce the fundamental group of a Klein surface and present its mai…

Klein bottle embeds into specific lens spaces.

Let $K$ be a Klein bottle. We show that the infimum of the Willmore energy among all immersed Klein bottles in Euclidean $n$-space is attained by a smooth embedded Klein bottle, where $n\geq 4$. There are three distinct regular homotopy classes of immersed Klein bottles in the Euclidean four-space each one containing a…

In two papers titled "On the so-called non-Euclidean geometry", I and II, Felix Klein proposed a construction of the spaces of constant curvature -1, 0 and and 1 (that is, hyperbolic, Euclidean and spherical geometry) within the realm of projective geometry. Klein's work was inspired by ideas of Cayley who derived the …
