The paper examines rational homology spheres that admit special generic maps into Euclidean spaces.

Smooth maps show Gromoll filtration for spheres.

A smooth map between smooth manifolds is called a special generic map if it has only definite fold points as its singularities. In this paper, we give conditions for a special generic map into the 3-dimensional Euclidean space to be factored as the composition of an embedding and a projection for certain dimensions.

Maps with boundary definite fold points restrict manifold structure.

A so-called special generic map is by definition a map of smooth manifolds all of whose singularities are definite fold points. It is in general an open problem posed by Saeki in 1993 to determine the set of integers $p$ for which a given homotopy sphere admits a special generic map into $\mathbb{R}^{p}$. By means of t…

The study shows manifolds with special generic maps also have nice multisections.

A special generic map is a smooth map regarded as a natural generalization of Morse functions with just 2 singular points on homotopy spheres. Canonical projections of unit spheres are simplest examples of such maps and manifolds admitting special generic maps into the plane are completely determined by Saeki in 1993 a…

A Reeb space is defined as the space of all the connected components of inverse images of a smooth map, which is a fundamental tool in studying smooth manifolds using generic smooth maps whose codimensions are not positive such as Morse functions, their higher dimensional versions including fold maps and general stable…

The study restricts manifolds with certain explicit SGL maps and constructs them.

Abstract: Generalizes supergravity c-map to quaternionic manifolds.

In the present paper we prove Liouville-type theorems: non-existence theorems for some complete Riemannian almost product manifolds and special mappings of complete Riemannian manifolds which generalize similar results for compact manifolds.

Generalized are the investigated in other works of the author transports along paths in fibre bundles to transports along arbitrary maps in them. Their structure and some properties are studied. Special attention is paid to the linear case and the case when the map's domain is a Cartesian product of two sets. Also cons…

We formulate a correspondence between affine and projective special Kähler manifolds of the same dimension. As an application, we show that, under this correspondence, the affine special Kähler manifolds in the image of the rigid r-map are mapped to one-parameter deformations of projective special Kähler manifolds in t…

New method characterizes surface quadrilateral layouts as special immersions.

In the present paper we study geodesic mappings of special pseudo-Riemannian manifolds called $V_n(K)$-spaces. We prove that the set of solutions of the system of equations of geodesic mappings on $V_n(K)$-spaces $(K\neq0)$ forms a special Jordan algebra and the set of solutions generated by consircular fields is an id…

This is the sixth in a series of papers constructing examples of special Lagrangian m-folds in C^m. We present a construction of special Lagrangian cones in C^3 involving two commuting o.d.e.s, motivated by the first two papers of the series. Then we generalize it to a construction of non-conical special Lagrangian 3-f…

Isothermic nets created from special maps for smooth surfaces.

We study gluings of asymptotically cylindrical special Lagrangian submanifolds in asymptotically cylindrical Calabi--Yau manifolds. We prove both that there is a well-defined gluing map, and, after reviewing the deformation theory for special Lagrangians, prove that this gluing map defines a local diffeomorphism from m…

The paper studies geodesic mappings in special Riemannian manifolds.

Investigates harmonic self-maps' stability on cohomogeneity one manifolds.

We extend Osserman's lemma on the generalized Gauss map of two-dimensional minimal graphs of higher codimension, construct a Jenkins-Serrin type special Lagrangian Scherk graph explicitly, and generalize Calabi's correspondence between minimal graphs and maximal graphs.

We give an intrinsic definition of (affine very) special real manifolds and realise any such manifold $M$ as a domain in affine space equipped with a metric which is the Hessian of a cubic polynomial. We prove that the tangent bundle $N=TM$ carries a canonical structure of (affine) special Kähler manifold. This gives a…

Pseudo horizontally weakly conformal maps extend both holomorphic and (semi)conformal maps into an almost Hermitian manifold. We find in this larger class critical points for the (generalized) Faddeev-Hopf energy. Their stability is also discussed in some cases.

Under the action of the c-map, special Kahler manifolds are mapped into a class of quaternion-Kahler spaces. We explicitly construct the corresponding Swann bundle or hyperkahler cone, and determine the hyperkahler potential in terms of the prepotential of the special Kahler geometry.

Tropical curves match to special Lagrangian shapes.

In studies of smooth maps with good differential topological conditions such as immersions, embeddings, Morse functions and their higher dimensional versions including fold maps and application to geometry, especially algebraic and differential topology of manifolds, liftings or desingulizations of maps of appropriate …

This paper presents and explores a theory of \emph{multiholomorphic maps}. This group of ideas generalizes the theory of pseudoholomorphic curves in a direction suggested by consideration of the kinds of compatible geometric structures that appear in the realm of special holonomy as well as some of the topological and …

We determine all complete projective special real surfaces. By the supergravity r-map, they give rise to complete projective special Kähler manifolds of dimension 6, which are distinguished by the image of their scalar curvature function. By the supergravity c-map, the latter manifolds define in turn complete quaternio…

Authors compute Weingarten map and curvatures for SL(n, R).

The paper uses singularity theory to find normal forms for sub-Riemannian exponential maps.

We show a method to construct a special Lagrangian submanifold L' from a given special Lagrangian submanifold L in a Calabi-Yau manifold with the use of generalized perpendicular symmetries. We use moment maps of the actions of Lie groups, which are not necessarily abelian. By our method, we construct some non-trivial …

Constructs harmonic maps between special geometric shapes.

New construction method for special geometric structures.

We classify all complete projective special real manifolds with reducible cubic potential, obtaining four series. For two of the series the manifolds are homogeneous, for the two others the respective automorphism group acts with co-homogeneity one. Complete projective special real manifolds give rise to complete quate…

New homogeneous special Lagrangian submanifolds discovered in nearly Kähler CP3.

We describe how the loop group maps corresponding to special submanifolds associated to integrable systems may be thought of as certain Grassmann submanifolds of infinite dimensional homogeneous spaces. In general, the associated families of special submanifolds are certain Grassmann submanifolds. An example is given f…

Study special complexified Kähler forms in mirror symmetry.

In this paper we describe the cohomogeneity one special Lagrangian 3-folds in the cotangent bundle of the 3-sphere, also known in the physics literature as a deformed conifold. Our main result gives a global foliation of the deformed conifold by T^2-invariant special Lagrangian 3-folds, where the generic leaf is topolo…

In this paper we study geodesic mappings of $n$-dimensional surfaces of revolution. From the general theory of geodesic mappings of equidistant spaces we specialize to surfaces of revolution and apply the obtained formulas to the case of rotational ellipsoids. We prove that such $n$-dimensional ellipsoids admit non tri…

We study the projective special Kaehler condition on groups, providing an intrinsic definition of homogeneous projective special Kaehler that includes the previously known examples. We give intrinsic defining equations that may be used without resorting to computations in the special cone, and emphasise certain associa…

A generalised notion of connection on a fibre bundle E over a manifold M is presented. These connections are characterised by a smooth distribution on E which projects onto a (not necessarily integrable) distribution on M and which, in addition, is `parametrised' in some specific way by a vector bundle map from a presc…

We derive the stress-energy tensor for polyharmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds. Moreover, we employ the stress-energy tensor to characterize polyharmonic maps where we pay special attention to triharmonic maps.

The deformed Hermitian Yang-Mills (dHYM) equation is a special Lagrangian type condition in complex geometry. It requires the complex analogue of the Lagrangian phase, defined for Chern connections on holomorphic line bundles using a background Kähler metric, to be constant. In this paper we introduce and study dHYM eq…

The study extends calibrated geometry to smooth maps and finds energy bounds.

As a generalization of anti-invariant Riemannian submersions, we introduce anti-invariant Riemannian maps from almost Hermitian manifolds to Riemannian manifolds. We give examples and investigate the geometry of foliations which are arisen from the definition of an anti-Riemannian map. Then we give a decomposition theo…
