This paper connects real closed fields to Hitchin representations and their properties.

We prove a triangulation theorem for semi-algebraic sets over a p-adically closed field, quite similar to its real counterpart. We derive from it several applications like the existence of flexible retractions and splitting for semi-algebraic sets.

Generalizes Poincaré-Hopf Theorem for piecewise smooth boundaries.

It is well-known that classical two-dimensional topological field theories are in one-to-one correspondence with commutative Frobenius algebras. An important extension of classical two-dimensional topological field theories is provided by open-closed two-dimensional topological field theories. In this paper we extend o…

Study on gradient pseudo-Ricci solitons on real hypersurfaces.

We introduce G_2-vector fields, Rochesterian 1-forms and Rochesterian vector fields on manifolds with a closed G_2-structure as analogues of symplectic vector fields, Hamiltonian functions and Hamiltonian vector fields respectively, and we show that the spaces of G_2-vector fields and of Rochesterian vector fields are …

We define a `Higgs field' for a four-dimensional spin$^c$-manifold to be a smooth section of its positive half-spinor bundle, transverse to the zero section, and defined only up to a positive functional factor. This is intended to be a generalization of almost complex structures on real four-manifolds, each of which ma…

Arguments on PL,(=piecewise linear) topology work over any ordered field in the same way as over the real field, and those on differential topology do over a real closed field R in an o-minimal structure that expands (R,<,0,1,+,cdot). One of the most fundamental properties of definable sets is that a compact definable …

Theory developed for Hilbert geometry over valued fields, linking real and non-Archimedean geometries.

We investigate specific examples of locally-defined real vector-fields on strata of translation surfaces. Integrating SL(2,R)-loci of Veech surfaces along these vector-fields yield interesting new examples of horocyle-invariant ergodic measures. These measures are supported on closed immersed manifolds with boundary th…

Local Lorentzian theorem preserves metrics or makes them flat.

Let $S_g$ ($g\geq 2$) be a closed surface of genus $g$. Let $K$ be any real number field and $A$ be any quaternion algebra over $K$ such that $A\otimes_K\mathbb{R}\cong M_2(\mathbb{R})$. We show that there exists a hyperbolic structure on $S_g$ such that $K$ and $A$ arise as its invariant trace field and invariant quat…

Signed seminorms linked to real tropical spaces and matroids.

We employ the relationship between contact structures and Beltrami fields derived in part I of this series to construct steady nonsingular solutions to the Euler equations on a Riemannian $S^3$ whose flowlines trace out closed curves of all possible knot and link types simultaneously. Using careful contact-topological …

The main purpose of this article is to demonstrate three techniques for proving algebraicity statements about circle packings. We give proofs of three related theorems: (1) that every finite simple planar graph is the contact graph of a circle packing on the Riemann sphere, equivalently in the complex plane, all of who…

The study classifies spaces with specific conformal vector fields.

Algorithm finds real-analytic Legendrian representatives for every link type.

We show that every semialgebraic set admits a semialgebraic triangulation such that each closed simplex is $C^1$ differentiable. As an application, we give a straightforward definition of the integration $\int_X ω$ over a compact semialgebraic subset $X$ of a differential form $ω$ on an ambient algebraic manifold, that…

In this thesis, we consider semi-algebraic sets over a real closed field $R$ defined by quadratic polynomials. Semi-algebraic sets of $R^k$ are defined as the smallest family of sets in $R^k$ that contains the algebraic sets as well as the sets defined by polynomial inequalities, and which is also closed under the bool…

A flow defined by a nonsingular smooth vector field $X$ on a closed manifold $M$ is said to be parameter rigid if given any real valued smooth function $f$ on $M$, there are a smooth funcion $g$ and a constant $c$ such that $f=X(g)+c$ holds. We show that the parameter rigid flows on closed orientable 3-manifolds are sm…

The $π$-exterior derivative $ød$, which is the Finslerian generalization of the (usual) exterior derivative $d$ of Riemannian geometry, is defined. The notion of a $ød$-closed vector field is introduced and investigated. Various characterizations of $ød$-closed vector fields are established. Some results concerning $ød…

The abstract proves that certain Reeb vector fields on 3-manifolds have Birkhoff sections.

We obtain bounds on the least dimension of an affine space that can contain an $n$-dimensional submanifold without any pairs of parallel or intersecting tangent lines at distinct points. This problem is closely related to the generalized vector field problem, non-singular bilinear maps, and the immersion problem for re…

There is an interpretation of open string field theory in algebraic topology. An interpretation of closed string field theory can be deduced from this open string theory to obtain as well the interpretation of open and closed string field theory combined.

New method speeds up sampling of Markov random fields.

We show the set of faithful representations of a closed orientable hyperbolic surface group is dense in both irreducible components of the PSL(2,K) representation variety, where K is the field of real or complex numbers, answering a question of W. Goldman. We also prove the existence of faithful representations into PU…

In 1974, Thurston proved that, up to isotopy, every automorphism of closed orientable surface is either periodic, reducible, or pseudo-Anosov. The latter case has lead to a rich theory with applications ranging from dynamical systems to low dimensional topology. Associated with every pseudo-Anosov map is a real number …

In this paper we examine different aspects of the geometry of closed conformal vector fields on Riemannian manifolds. We begin by getting obstructions to the existence of closed conformal and nonparallel vector fields on complete manifolds with nonpositive Ricci curvature, thus generalizing a theorem of T. K. Pan. Then…

Killing vector fields of a closed homogeneous and isotropic universe are studied. It is shown that in general case there is no time-like Killing vector fields in such a universe. Two exceptional cases are revealed.

Learning a distance function or metric on a given data manifold is of great importance in machine learning and pattern recognition. Many of the previous works first embed the manifold to Euclidean space and then learn the distance function. However, such a scheme might not faithfully preserve the distance function if t…

The paper classifies orbits of semisimple elements in real semisimple Lie algebras.

We draw connections between the field of contact topology and the study of Beltrami fields in hydrodynamics on Riemannian manifolds in dimension three. We demonstrate an equivalence between Reeb fields (vector fields which preserve a transverse nowhere-integrable plane field) up to scaling and rotational Beltrami field…

The study finds infinitely many semi-arithmetic Riemann surfaces with dense systoles and distinct invariant trace fields.

We prove that semisimple 4-dimensional oriented topological field theories lead to stable diffeomorphism invariants and can therefore not distinguish homeomorphic closed oriented smooth 4-manifolds and homotopy equivalent simply connected closed oriented smooth 4-manifolds. We show that all currently known 4-dimensiona…

In this paper we prove that there is a direct relationship between Salem numbers and translation lengths of hyperbolic elements of arithmetic hyperbolic groups that are determined by a quadratic form over a totally real number field. As an application we determine a sharp lower bound for the length of a closed geodesic…
