48 results for Zeeman construction

In 1965, E. C. Zeeman proved that the (+/-)-twist spin of any knotted sphere in (n-1)-space is unknotted in the n-sphere. In 1991, Y. Marumoto and Y. Nakanishi gave an alternate proof of Zeeman's theorem by using the moving picture method. In this paper, we define a knotted 2-dimensional foam which is a generalization …

In a classic paper Zeeman introduced the k-twist spin of a knot K and showed that the exterior of a twist spin fibers over S^1. In particular this result shows that the knot K # -K is doubly slice. In this paper we give a quick proof of Zeeman's result. The k-twist spin of K also gives rise to two metabolizers for K # …

We review a cochain-free treatment of the classical van Kampen obstruction θto embeddability of an n-polyhedron into R^{2n} and consider several analogues and generalizations of θ, including an extraordinary lift of θwhich in the manifold case has been studied by J.-P. Dax. The following results are obtained. - The mod…

Let N be a closed oriented k-dimensional submanifold of the (k+2)-dimensional sphere; denote its complement by C(N). Denote by x the 1-dimensional cohomology class in C(N), dual to N. The Morse-Novikov number of C(N) is by definition the minimal possible number of critical points of a regular Morse map f from C(N) to a…

We prove that the second derived subdivision of any rectilinear triangulation of any convex polytope is shellable. Also, we prove that the first derived subdivision of every rectilinear triangulation of any convex 3-dimensional polytope is shellable. This complements Mary Ellen Rudin's classical example of a non-shella…

This paper is on the classical Knotting Problem: for a given manifold N and a number m describe the set of isotopy classes of embeddings NSmN\to S^m. We study the specific case of knotted tori, i. e. the embeddings Sp×SqSmS^p \times S^q \to S^m. The classification of knotted tori up to isotopy in the metastable dimension ran…

Article constructs coassociative submanifolds in Joyce's G2G_2-manifolds.

problem Constructing coassociative submanifolds in Joyce's G2G_2-manifolds.
method Using Joyce's generalised Kummer construction, focusing on the critical region where the metric degenerates.
result The volume of the coassociatives shrinks to zero as the orbifold-limit is approached.

The twist construction is a geometric model of T-duality that includes constructions of nilmanifolds from tori. This paper shows how one-dimensional foliations on manifolds may be used in a shear construction, which in algebraic form builds certain solvable Lie groups from Abelian ones. We discuss other examples of geo…

We describe various constructions in Sasakian geometry. First we generalize the join construction of the first two authors to arbitrary Sasakian manifolds. We then give several examples, including ones which prove the existence of Sasakian-Einstein metrics on manifolds homeomorphic to S2×S5.S^2\times S^5. Then we use a gen…

We construct bi-invariant total orderings of residually torsion-free nilpotent groups by using Chen's iterated integrals. This construction can be seen as a generalization of the Magnus ordering of the free groups, and equivalent to the classical construction which uses an iteration of central extensions. Our geometric…

result Infinitely many distinct surfaces with prescribed mean curvature are constructed.

We introduce the cutting construction of possibly non-compact symplectic toric manifolds, in particular, toric symplectic cones that correspond to a weakly convex good cone. Since the symplectization of a toric contact manifold is a toric symplectic cone, we can also construct toric contact manifolds that correspond to…

We construct calibrated submanifolds of R^7 and R^8 by viewing them as total spaces of vector bundles and taking appropriate sub-bundles which are naturally defined using certain surfaces in R^4. We construct examples of associative and coassociative submanifolds of R^7 and of Cayley submanifolds of R^8. This construct…

In this paper, we construct the index bundle gerbe of a family of self-adjoint Dirac-type operators, refining a construction of Segal. In a special case, we construct a geometric bundle gerbe called the caloron bundle gerbe, which comes with a natural connection and curving, and show that it is isomorphic to the analyt…
