New infinite family of 4-manifolds with same stable properties but not homotopy equivalent.

Homotopy types of 4-manifolds tied to their fundamental groups.

We construct differential equivariant K-theory of representable smooth orbifolds as a ring valued functor with the usual properties of a differential extension of a cohomology theory. For proper submersions (with smooth fibres) we construct a push-forward map in differential equivariant K-theory. Finally, we construct …

We provided two explicit formulas for the intersection cohomology (as a graded vector space with pairing) of the symplectic quotient by a circle in terms of the $S^1$ equivariant cohomology of the original symplectic manifold and the fixed point data. The key idea is the construction of a small resolution of the symple…

Given a null-homologous knot $K$ in a rational homology 3-sphere $M$, and the standard infinite cyclic covering $\tilde{X}$ of $(M,K)$, we define an invariant of triples of curves in $\tilde{X}$, by means of equivariant triple intersections of surfaces. We prove that this invariant provides a map $φ$ on $\Al^{\otimes 3…

We study almost-calibrated, $O(n)$-equivariant Lagrangian mean curvature flow in $\mathbb{C}^n$, and prove structural theorems about the Type I and Type II blowups of finite-time singularities. In particular, we prove that any Type I blowup of such a flow must be a special Lagrangian pair of transversely intersecting p…

Study on Morse homology for reflection actions on manifolds.

This paper is a synthesis and extension of three earlier papers on $PD_4$-complexes $X$ with fundamental group $π$ such that $c.d.π=2$ and $π$ has one end. Our goal is to show that the homotopy types of such complexes are determined by $π$, the Stiefel-Whitney classes and the equivariant intersection pairing on $π_2(X)…

Estimates intersection pairing in hyperbolic 4-manifolds.

James McClure recently showed that the domain for the intersection pairing of PL chains on a PL manifold $M$ is a subcomplex of $C_*(M)\otimes C_*(M)$ that is quasi-isomorphic to $C_*(M)\otimes C_*(M)$ and, more generally, that the intersection pairing endows $C_*(M)$ with the structure of a partially-defined commutati…

The paper constructs minimal coherent filling pairs on surfaces.

Study self-intersections of arcs on a pair of pants, proving natural number spectrum.

Using Seiberg-Witten Floer spectrum and Pin(2)-equivariant KO-theory, we prove new Furuta-type inequalities on the intersection forms of spin cobordisms between homology $3$-spheres. As an application, we give explicit constrains on the intersection forms of spin $4$-manifolds bounded by Brieskorn spheres $\pmΣ(2,3,6k\…

The paper finds diffeomorphic complex intersections with distinct Hodge numbers.

Study surfaces in 4-manifolds with cyclic fundamental group.

The study finds an upper limit for the number of minimal origami pairs on a surface.

By using the equivariant localization formula of toric varieties. We prove the vanishing of the Witten genus of some string complete intersections in smooth toric varieties.

Let $S_g$ be a closed surface of genus $g$ and let $(α, β)$ be a filling pair on $S_g$; then $i(α, β) \geq 2g-1$, where $i$ is the (geometric) intersection number. Aougab and Huang demonstrated that (exponentially many) minimally-intersecting filling pairs exist on $S_g$ when $g > 2$ by a construction w…

Develops tools for studying intersections of elliptic operators, focusing on $J$-holomorphic maps.

In this short note, we construct a minimally intersecting pair of simple closed curves that fill a genus 2 surface with an odd, greater than 3, number of punctures. This finishes the determination of minimally intersecting filling pairs for all surfaces completing the work of Aougab-Huang and Aougab-Taylor.

Classifies $4$-manifolds with specific properties and fundamental group.

Let $S_{g}$ denote the closed orientable surface of genus $g$. We construct exponentially many mapping class group orbits of pairs of simple closed curves which fill $S_{g}$ and intersect minimally, by showing that such orbits are in correspondence with the solutions of a certain permutation equation in the symmetric g…

One can realize higher laminations as positive configurations of points in the affine building. The duality pairings of Fock and Goncharov give pairings between higher laminations for two Langlands dual groups $G$ and $G^{\vee}$. These pairings are a generalization of the intersection pairing between measured laminatio…

Equivalence proven between algebraic stability and geometric stability.

We refine the intersection product in homology to an equivariant setting, which unifies several known constructions. As an application, we give a common generalisation of the Chas-Sullivan string product on a manifold and the Chataur-Menichi string product on the classifying space by defining a string product on the Bo…

We introduce a new method of calculating intersections on \bar{M}_{g,n}, using localization of equivariant cohomology. As an application, we give a proof of Mirzakhani's recursion relation for calculating intersections of mixed psi and kappa_1 classes.

Let M be a compact oriented PL manifold and let C_*M be its PL chain complex. The domain of the chain-level intersection pairing is a subcomplex G of C_*M\otimes C_*M. We prove that G is a "full" subcomplex, that is, the inclusion of G in C_*M \otimes C_*M is a quasi-isomorphism. An analogous result is true for the dom…

We generalize the PL intersection product for chains on PL manifolds and for intersection chains on PL stratified pseudomanifolds to products of locally finite chains on non-compact spaces that are natural with respect to restriction to open sets. This is necessary to sheafify the intersection product, an essential ste…

Quantum invariants are explained as intersections in configuration spaces.

We show that G-equivariant K-semistability (resp. G-equivariant K-polystability) implies K-semistability (resp. K-polystability) for log Fano pairs when G is a finite group.

New origamis found for surfaces with minimal intersections.

The paper introduces $μ$K-stability for polarized schemes and develops equivariant calculus.

We compare the sheaf-theoretic and singular chain versions of Poincare duality for intersection homology, showing that they are isomorphic via naturally defined maps. Similarly, we demonstrate the existence of canonical isomorphisms between the singular intersection cohomology cup product, the hypercohomology product i…

New Kazdan-Warner problem for equivariant metrics on manifolds.

The purpose of this paper is to study finite dimensional equivariant moduli problems from the viewpoint of stratification theory. We show that there exists a stratified obstruction system for a finite dimensional equivariant moduli problem. In addition, we define a coindex for a G-vector bundle which is determined by t…

Study Gromov-Hausdorff convergence of metric pairs and tuples.

A pair of distinct free homotopy classes of closed curves in an orientable surface $F$ with negative Euler characteristic is said to be length equivalent if for any hyperbolic structure on $F$, the length of the geodesic representative of one class is equal to the length of the geodesic representative of the other clas…

The paper finds small exotic 4-manifolds with free abelian groups.

Let S^3_i be a 3-sphere embedded in the 5-sphere S^5 (i=1,2). Let S^3_1 and S^3_2 intersect transversely. Then the intersection C of S^3_1 and S^3_2 is a disjoint collection of circles. Thus we obtain a pair of 1-links, C in S^3_i (i=1,2), and a pair of 3-knots, S^3_i in S^5 (i=1,2). Conversely let (L_1,L_2) be a pair …

Let M be a closed oriented 3-manifold with first Betti number one. Its equivariant linking pairing may be seen as a two-dimensional cohomology class in an appropriate infinite cyclic covering of the space of ordered pairs of distinct points of M. We show how to define the equivariant cube Q(K) of this Blanchfield pairi…

We show that round hemispheres are the only compact 2 dimensional Riemannian manifolds (with or without boundary) such that almost every pair of complete geodesics intersect once and only once. We prove this by establishing a sharp isoperimetric inequality for surfaces with boundary such that every pair of geodesics ha…

This paper explores how pairs of multicurves can be realized as cylinders on translation surfaces.

In this paper, we prove that infinitesimal equivariant Chern-Connes characters are well-defined. We decompose an equivariant index as a pairing of infinitesimal equivariant Chern-Connes characters with the Chern character of an idempotent matrix. We compute the limit of infinitesimal equivariant Chern- Connes character…

The paper calculates homology and intersection pairing of branched covers using disoriented homology.

We show a non-existence result for some class of equivariant maps between sphere bundles over tori. The notion of equivariant KO-degree is used in the proof. As an application to Seiberg-Witten theory, for a connected closed oriented spin 4-manifold with indefinite intersection form, we have a new bound of the second B…
