A new surgery formula for knot lattice homology.

Proves lattice homology equals Heegaard Floer homology for certain 3-manifolds.

The paper examines lattice homology invariants of Seifert homology spheres.

Knot lattice homology invariant of smooth knot type in rational homology spheres.

Using the link surgery formula for Heegaard Floer homology we find a spectral sequence from the lattice homology of a plumbing tree to the Heegaard Floer homology of the corresponding 3-manifold. This spectral sequence shows that for graphs with at most two "bad" vertices, the lattice homology is isomorphic to the Heeg…

We outline the theory of sets with distributive operations: multishelves and multispindles, with examples provided by semi-lattices, lattices and skew lattices. For every such a structure we define multi-term distributive homology and show some of its properties. The main result is a complete formula for the homology o…

Knot lattice homology invariant is preserved under certain 3-manifold diffeomorphisms.

We show that the set of even positive definite lattices that arise from smooth, simply-connected 4-manifolds bounded by a fixed homology 3-sphere can depend on more than the ranks of the lattices. We provide two homology 3-spheres with distinct sets of such lattices, each containing a distinct nonempty subset of the ra…

Researchers describe a new method to compute Seiberg-Witten-Floer spectra for a specific class of manifolds.

We show that the knot lattice homology of a knot in an L-space is equivalent to the knot Floer homology of the same knot (viewed these invariants as filtered chain complexes over the polynomial ring Z/2Z [U]). Suppose that G is a negative definite plumbing tree which contains a vertex w such that G-w is a union of rati…

Paper proves a conjecture about a Heegaard Floer invariant for certain rational homology spheres.

We define and prove properties of link lattice complexes for plumbed links.

Using instanton Floer theory, extending methods due to Froyshov, we determine the definite lattices that arise from smooth 4-manifolds bounded by certain homology 3-spheres. For example, we show that for +1 surgery on the (2,5) torus knot, the only non-diagonal lattices that can occur are E8 and the indecomposable unim…

The paper introduces lattice homology for integrally closed submodules and applies it to geometric invariants.

Assume that Γ_{v_0} is a tree with vertex set Vert(Γ_{v_0})={v_0, v_1,..., v_n}, and with an integral framing (weight) attached to each vertex except v_0. Assume furthermore that the intersection matrix of G=Γ_{v_0}-{v_0} is negative definite. We define a filtration on the chain complex computing the lattice homology o…

Lattices in PSL(2,C) are omnipotent, acting on geodesics and homology.

Alternating links bound rational homology balls if their chessboard lattice is cubiquitous.

New invariant connects knot homology and BPS series for plumbed knot complements.

New lattice path method for statistical inference of persistent diagrams.

The study determines lens spaces that can be obtained from surgeries on knots in the Poincaré homology sphere.

Let L be a nonunimodular definite lattice. Using a theorem of Elkies we show that whether L embeds in the standard definite lattice of the same rank is completely determined by a collection of lattice correction terms, one for each metabolizing subgroup of the discriminant group. As a topological application this gives…

We study upper bounds for the torsion in homology of nonuniform arithmetic lattices. Together with recent results of Calegari-Venkatesh, this can be used to obtain upper bounds on K2 of the ring of integers of totally imaginary fields.

We introduce a notion of complexity for Sefiert homology spheres by establishing a correspondence between lattice point counting in tethrahedra and the Heegaard-Floer homology. This complexity turns out to be equivalent to a version of Casson invariant and it is monotone under a natural partial order in the set of Seif…

The article classifies cubiquitous sublattices and applies them to branched covers.

Instanton Floer homology matches Heegaard Floer for almost-rational plumbings.

The paper constructs a star product on a symplectically reduced phase space for a lattice gauge model.

3D space without definite 4D counterpart found.

We compute the Heegaard-Floer link homology of algebraic links in terms of the multivariate Hilbert function of the corresponding plane curve singularities. The main result of the paper identifies four homologies: (a) the Heegaard-Floer link homology of the local embedded link of the germ, (b) the lattice homology asso…

Lattice cohomology, defined by Némethi in (arXiv:0709.0841), is an invariant of negative definite plumbed 3-manifolds which conjecturally computes the Heegaard Floer homology HF^+. We prove a surgery exact triangle for the lattice cohomology analogous to the one for HF^+. This is a step towards comparing these two inva…

New deformations of lattice cohomology help calculate knot invariants.

We define a homology theory for a certain class of posets equipped with a representation. We show that when restricted to Boolean lattices this homology is isomorphic to the homology of the "cube" complex defined by Khovanov.

The study finds bounds on homologically independent loops on hyperelliptic hyperbolic surfaces.

Determines conditions for ribbon cobordisms between lens spaces.

New results on homology torsion growth for various groups.

We investigate the rank gradient and growth of torsion in homology in residually finite groups. As a tool, we introduce a new complexity notion for generating sets, using measured groupoids and combinatorial cost. As an application we prove the vanishing of the above invariants for Farber sequences of subgroups of righ…

Symmetric function $L_{M,N}$ lifts torus link homology.

New invariant unifies two theories of 3-manifolds, recovering quantum invariants.

We show that uniformly finite homology of products of $n$ trees vanishes in all degrees except degree $n$, where it is infinite dimensional. Our method is geometric and applies to several large scale homology theories, including almost equivariant homology and controlled coarse homology. As an application we determine …

Computes second homology groups of orbifold groups, proving profinite rigidity and Grothendieck pairs.

The d-invariant of an integral, positive definite lattice L records the minimal norm of a characteristic covector in each equivalence class mod 2L. We prove that the 2-isomorphism type of a connected graph is determined by the d-invariant of its lattice of integral cuts (or flows). As an application, we prove that a re…

We express the number of lattice points inside certain simplices via Dedekind-Rademacher sums. As an application, we prove a conjecture of Kronheimer and Mrowka in the special case of Brieskorn spheres (with at most 4 singular fibers). This conjecture relates the Euler characteristic of the Seiberg-Witten-Floer homolog…

A Garside group is a group admitting a finite lattice generating set D. Using techniques developed by Bestvina for Artin groups of finite type, we construct K(π,1)s for Garside groups. This construction shows that the (co)homology of any Garside group G is easily computed given the lattice D, and there is a simple suff…

We compute the connected Heegaard Floer homology (defined by Hendricks, Hom, and Lidman) for a large class of 3-manifolds, including all linear combinations of Seifert fibered homology spheres. We show that for such manifolds, the connected Floer homology completely determines the local equivalence class of the associa…

In this paper we construct families of homology spheres which bound 4-manifolds with intersection forms isomorphic to $-E_8$. We show that these families have arbitrary large correction terms. This result says that among homology spheres, the difference of the maximal rank of minimal sub-lattice of definite filling and…

For a topological space $X$, we introduce a criterion for the $\rm FI$ module $H^i({\rm Conf}_n(X))$ to be finitely generated and give several applications. For instance, if $C$ is a finite connected $CW$ complex, then $X = C \times \mathbb{R}^2$ satisfies the criterion. Our main tool is a spectral sequence that we der…

We prove a generalisation of Elkies' theorem to nonunimodular definite forms (and lattices). Combined with inequalities of Froyshov and of Ozsvath and Szabo, this gives a simple test of whether a rational homology 3-sphere may bound a definite four-manifold. As an example we show that small positive surgeries on torus …
