New linking numbers link complex cycles to Calabi-Yau 3-folds.

Study linking numbers in hyperbolic 3-folds, linking to Siegel modular forms.

In Part I of this paper we introduced the notion of the projective linking number Link(M,Z) of a compact oriented real submanifold M of dimension 2p-1 in complex projective n-space P^n with an algebraic subvariety Z of codimension p in P^n - M. It is shown here that a basic conjecture concerning the projective hull of …

We introduce the notion of the projective linking number Link(M,Z) of a compact oriented real submanifold M of dimension 2p-1 in complex projective n-space P^n with an algebraic subvariety Z in P^n - M of codimension p. This notion is related to projective winding numbers and quasi-plurisubharmonic functions, and it ge…

We strengthen the link between holomorphic and generating-function invariants of Legendrian knots by establishing a formula relating the number of augmentations of a knot's contact homology to the complete ruling invariant of Chekanov and Pushkar.

Study shows boundary of Milnor fibre is invariant for certain singularities.

Link invariants, for 3-manifolds, are defined in the context of the Rozansky-Witten theory. To each knot in the link one associates a holomorphic bundle over a holomorphic symplectic manifold X. The invariants are evaluated for b_{1}(M) \geq 1 and X Hyper-Kaehler. To obtain invariants of Hyper-Kaehler X one finds that …

Worldsheet skein D-module for Hopf link conormal uniquely determines partition functions.

It is shown that, in the 1-jet space of the circle, the swapping and the flyping procedures, which produce topologically equivalent links, can produce nonequivalent legendrian links. Each component of the links considered is legendrian isotopic to the 1-jet of the 0-function, and thus cannot be distinguished by the cla…

We describe the construction of an $\mathcal{A}_\infty$ multi-module in terms of counts of holomorphic polygons in a series Heegaard multi-diagrams. We show that this is quasi-isomorphic to the type-A bordered-sutured invariant of a link complement with a view to calculating, in the sequel, these invariants in terms of…

We define a Floer-homology invariant for links in $S^3$, and study its properties.

Holomorphic functions from knot complements link to quantum modular forms.

A twisted quiver bundle is a set of holomorphic vector bundles over a complex manifold, labelled by the vertices of a quiver, linked by a set of morphisms twisted by a fixed collection of holomorphic vector bundles, labelled by the arrows. When the manifold is Kaelher, quiver bundles admit natural gauge-theoretic equat…

Study q-series for 3-manifolds with line defects, proving homomorphism and conjecturing holomorphic modularity.

Holomorphic quantum modular forms linked to knot volumes.

We generalize a classical result concerning smooth germs of surfaces, by proving that monodromies on links of isolated complex surface singularities associated with reduced holomorphic map germs admit a positive factorization. As a consequence of this and a topological characterization of these monodromies by Anne Pich…

Introduces non-abelian Hodge correspondence linking algebraic structures to geometry.

Simplified computation of SFT invariants for Legendrian links.

We give a new proof of the Alexander-Wermer Theorem that characterizes the oriented curves in C^n which bound positive holomorphic chains, in terms of the linking numbers of the curve with algebraic cycles in the complement. In fact, we establish a slightly stronger version which applies to a wider class of boundary 1-…

We study 1-parameter families of holomorphic curves with Lagrangian boundary in Calabi-Yau 3-folds. We show that the expected codimension one phenomena can be organized to match the HOMFLYPT skein relations from quantum topology. It follows that counting holomorphic curves by the class of their boundaries in the skein …

Projective surfaces metrisability linked to pseudo-holomorphic curves existence.

The paper classifies holomorphic maps between Riemann surface configuration spaces.

Given an l-component pointed oriented link (L,p) in an oriented three-manifold Y, one can construct its link Floer chain complex CFL(Y,L,p) over the polynomial ring F_2[U_1,...,U_l]. Moving the basepoint p_i in the link component L_i once around induces an automorphism of CFL(Y,L,p). In this paper, we study an automorp…

We show in this article that if a holomorphic vector bundle has a nonnegative Hermitian metric in the sense of Bott and Chern, which always exists on globally generated holomorphic vector bundles, then some special linear combinations of Chern forms are strongly nonnegative. This particularly implies that all the Chern…

Study shows Lelong numbers vanish for certain currents in weakly hyperbolic foliations.

Constructs a spectrum for knot Floer homology without holomorphic geometry.

New stability criteria for vector bundles linked to Hermite-Einstein geometry.

For any subvariety of a compact holomorphic symplectic Kaehler manifold, we define the number W(X), which we call Wirtinger number. We show that $W(X)\leq 1$, and the equality is reached if and only if the subvariety $X\subset M$ is trianalytic, i. e. compactible with the hyperkaehler structure on M. For a sequence $X_…

The abstract conjectures a link between knot homologies and quiver partition functions.

We prove that proper pseudo-holomorphic maps between strictly pseudoconvex regions in almost complex manifolds extend to the boundary. The key point is that the Jacobian is far from zero near the boundary, and the proof is mainly based on an almost complex analogue of the scaling method. We also establish a link betwee…

Paper finds linking numbers for Montesinos links using a simple algorithm.

Little is known about the global topology of the Fatou set $U(f)$ for holomorphic endomorphisms $f: \mathbb{CP}^k \to \mathbb{CP}^k$, when $k >1$. Classical theory describes $U(f)$ as the complement in $\mathbb{CP}^k$ of the support of a dynamically-defined closed positive $(1,1)$ current. Given any closed positive $(…

The triple linking number of an oriented surface link was defined as an analogical notion of the linking number of a classical link. We consider a certain $m$-component $T^2$-link ($m \geq 3$) determined from two commutative pure $m$-braids $a$ and $b$. We present the triple linking number of such a $T^2$-link, by usin…

We study a natural functional on the space of holomorphic sections of the Deligne-Hitchin moduli space of a compact Riemann surface, generalizing the energy of equivariant harmonic maps corresponding to twistor lines. We give a link to a natural meromorphic connection on the hyperholomorphic line bundle recently constr…

In the 1950's Milnor defined a family of higher order invariants generalizing the linking number. Even the first of these new invariants, the triple linking number, has received and fruitful study since its inception. In the case that $L$ has vanishing pairwise linking numbers, this triple linking number gives an integ…

The paper examines linking numbers in grid models and finds polynomial moments.

Computed linking number of modular knots and Lorenz links.

From a hermitian metric on the anticanonical bundle on a Del Pezzo surface, and a holomorphic section of it, we construct a one parameter family of bihermitian metrics (or equivalently generalized Kaehler structures). The construction appears to be linked to noncommutative geometry.
