Thurston's Circle Pattern Theorem studies existence and rigidity of circle patterns of a given combinatorial type and the given non-obtuse exterior intersection angles. Using topological degree theory, variational principle, Teichmuller theory, and Sard's Theorem, this paper generalizes Circle Pattern Theorem to the ca…

Surgery, as developed by Browder, Kervaire, Milnor, Novikov, Sullivan, Wall and others is a method for comparing homotopy types of topological spaces with diffeomorphism or homeomorphism types of manifolds of dimension >= 5. In this paper, a modification of this theory is presented, where instead of fixing a homotopy t…

Thom-Pontrjagin constructions are used to give a computable necessary and sufficient condition when a homomorphism $φ: H^n(L;Z)\to H^n(M;Z)$ can be realized by a map $f:M\to L$ of degree $k$ for closed $(n-1)$-connected $2n$-manifolds $M$ and $L$, $n>1$. A corollary is that each $(n-1)$-connected $2n$-manifold admits s…

Computes expected number of real intersection points of essential variety with random linear spaces.

New polynomial invariants defined for long virtual knots.

Let $C$ be a smooth projective curve of genus $2$. Following a method by O' Grady, we construct a semismall desingularization $\tilde{\mathcal{M}}_{Dol}^G$ of the moduli space $\mathcal{M}_{Dol}^G$ of semistable $G$-Higgs bundles of degree 0 for $G=GL(2,\mathbb{C}), SL(2,\mathbb{C})$. By the decomposition theorem by Be…

In this paper we consider the topological side of a problem which is the analogue of Sen's S-duality testing conjecture for Hitchin's moduli space of rank 2 stable Higgs bundles of fixed determinant of odd degree over a Riemann surface. We prove that all intersection numbers in the compactly supported cohomology vanish…

We show that the total space of any affine $\mathbb{C}$-bundle over $\mathbb{CP}^1$ with negative degree admits an ALE scalar-flat Kähler metric. Here the degree of an affine bundle means the negative of the self-intersection number of the section at infinity in a natural compactification of the bundle, and so for line…

Formula counts rational curves with a specific singular point in projective space.

This paper constructs an algebra on a 3-torus with specific properties for fluid dynamics.

We prove formulas (found by Witten in 1992 using physical methods) for intersection pairings in the cohomology of the moduli space M(n,d) of stable holomorphic vector bundles of rank n and degree d (assumed coprime) on a Riemann surface of genus g greater than or equal to 2. We also use these formulas for intersection …

Study of monodromy and vanishing cycles for complete intersection curves.

Establishing criteria for top cell inertness in complexes.

We introduce the warping crossing polynomial of an oriented knot diagram by using the warping degrees of crossing points of the diagram. Given a closed transversely intersected plane curve, we consider oriented knot diagrams obtained from the plane curve as states to take the sum of the warping crossing polynomials for…

We prove that the sequence of projective representations of the mapping class group obtained from the projective flat connection in the SU(n)-Verlinde bundles over Teichmuller space is asymptotically faithful, that is the intersection over all levels of the kernels of these representations is trivial, whenever the genu…

Paper extends circle pattern theory to obtuse angles.

We prove the factoriality of the following nodal threefolds: a complete intersection of hypersurfaces $F$ and $G\subset\mathbb{P}^{5}$ of degree $n$ and $k$ respectively, where $G$ is smooth, $|\mathrm{Sing}(F\cap G)|\leqslant(n+k-2)(n-1)/5$, $n\geqslant k$; a double cover of a smooth hypersurface $F\subset\mathbb{P}^{…

Random curves on surfaces have predictable properties as they grow.

We introduce an inductive argument for proving birational superrigidity and K-stability of singular Fano complete intersections of index one, using the same types of information from lower dimensions. In particular, we prove that a hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^{n+1}$ of degree $n+1$ with only ordinary singularities of m…

Study on symmetry defects of complete intersections in complex space.

We show the intersection of a compact almost complex subvariety of dimension $4$ and a compact almost complex submanifold of codimension $2$ is a $J$-holomorphic curve. This is a generalization of positivity of intersections for $J$-holomorphic curves in almost complex $4$-manifolds to higher dimensions. As an applicat…

Let $P : Σ\rightarrow S$ be a finite degree covering map between surfaces. Rafi and Schleimer show that there is an induced quasi-isometric embedding $Π: \mathcal{C}(S) \rightarrow \mathcal{C}(Σ)$ between the associated curve complexes. We define an operation on curves in $\mathcal{C}(Σ)$ using minimal intersection num…

We show that the Debarre-de Jong conjecture that the Fano scheme of lines on a smooth hypersurface of degree at most n in n-dimensional projective space must have its expected dimension, and the Beheshti-Starr conjecture that bounds the dimension of the Fano scheme of lines for hypersurfaces of degree at least n in n-d…

The study shows strong formality in certain complex manifolds.

Let $γ$ be an essential closed curve with at most $k$ self-intersections on a surface $\mathcal{S}$ with negative Euler characteristic. In this paper, we construct a hyperbolic metric $ρ$ for which $γ$ has length at most $M \cdot \sqrt{k}$, where $M$ is a constant depending only on the topology of $\mathcal{S}$. Moreov…

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…

Using intersection and self-intersection of loops, Turaev introduced in the seventies two fundamental operations on the algebra $\mathbb{Q}[π]$ of the fundamental group $π$ of a surface with boundary. The first operation is binary and measures the intersection of two oriented based curves on the surface, while the seco…

We extend Kac-Rice formula to compute expected intersections of random submanifolds.

Study convex hulls of orbits for compact groups, defining new invariants related to polynomial degrees.

We consider the relations between different measures of complexity for free homotopy classes of curves on a surface $Σ$, including the minimum number of self-intersections, the minimum length of the words representing them in a geometric presentation of $π_1(Σ)$, and the minimum degree of the coverings of $Σ$ to which …

We show that for closed orientable manifolds the $k$-dimensional stable systole admits a metric-independent volume bound if and only if there are cohomology classes of degree $k$ that generate cohomology in top-degree. Moreover, it turns out that in the nonorientable case such a bound does not exist for stable systoles…

A detailed version of preprint "Self-linking number of a real algebraic link" by the same author, alg-geom/9410030. For a nonsingular real algebraic curve in 3-dimensional projective space or 3-sphere, a new integer-valued characteristic is introduced. It is invariant under rigid isotopy and multiplied by -1 under mirr…

The paper characterizes isomorphic covers of surfaces and applies it to distinguish representations.

Study on minimal surfaces and their Gauss maps intersecting a specific hypersurface.

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 consider the existence problem for `Steiner networks' (trivalent graphs with 120 degree angles at each junction) in strictly convex domains, with `Neumann' boundary conditions (orthogonal intersection with the domain boundary.) For each of the three possible combinatorial possibilities, sufficient conditions on the …

Chas and Sullivan have defined an intersection-type product on the homology of the free loop space LM of an oriented manifold M. In this paper we show how to extend this construction to a topological conformal field theory of degree d. In particular, we get operations on the homology of LM which are parameterized by th…

We prove that a monomorphic functor $F:Comp\to Comp$ with finite supports is epimorphic, continuous, and its maximal $\emptyset$-modification $F^\circ$ preserves intersections. This implies that a monomorphic functor $F:Comp\to Comp$ of finite degree $deg F\le n$ preserves (finite-dimensional) compact ANR's if the spac…

Weierstrass representation is a classical parameterization of minimal surfaces. However, two functions should be specified to construct the parametric form in Weierestrass representation. In this paper, we propose an explicit parametric form for a class of parametric polynomial minimal surfaces of arbitrary degree. It …

New proof shows surfaces can have identical length spectra but not simple ones.

We investigate some geometric properties of the real algebraic variety $Δ$ of symmetric matrices with repeated eigenvalues. We explicitly compute the volume of its intersection with the sphere and prove a Eckart-Young-Mirsky-type theorem for the distance function from a generic matrix to points in $Δ$. We exhibit conne…

Algorithm creates polynomials for knotted surfaces, with bounds on degree.

We define and count lattice points in the moduli space of stable genus g curves with n labeled points. This extends a construction of the second author for the uncompactified moduli space. The enumeration produces polynomials with top degree coefficients tautological intersection numbers on the compactified moduli spac…

Let $P$ be a polynomial of degree $d$ with a Cremer point $p$ and no repelling or parabolic periodic bi-accessible points. We show that there are two types of such Julia sets $J_P$. The \emph{red dwarf} $J_P$ are nowhere connected im kleinen and such that the intersection of all impressions of external angles is a cont…
