We show that a complete submanifold MM with tamed second fundamental form in a complete Riemannian manifold NN with sectional curvature KNκ0K_{N}\leq κ\leq 0 are proper, (compact if NN is compact). In addition, if NN is Hadamard then MM has finite topology. We also show that the fundamental tone is an obstruction fo…

We show that Margulis spacetimes without parabolic holonomy are topologically tame. A Margulis spacetime is the quotient of the 33-dimensional Minkowski space by a free proper isometric action of the free group of rank 2\geq 2. We will use our particular point of view that the Margulis spacetime is a manifold-with-bo…

We prove that the uniformizing map of any arithmetic quotient, as well as the period map associated to any pure polarized Z\mathbb{Z}-variation of Hodge structure V\mathbb{V} on a smooth complex quasi-projective variety SS, are topologically tame. As an easy corollary of these results and of Peterzil-Starchenko's o-…

The paper proves bounds on curvature and injectivity radius for convex sums of Riemannian metrics.

method Quantitative inverse function theorem and Riemannian geometry techniques.
result Injectivity radii of convex sums have uniform lower bounds.

Hilbert initiated the standpoint in foundations of mathematics. From this standpoint, we allow only a finite number of repetitions of elementary operations when we construct objects and morphisms. When we start from a subset of a Euclidean space. Then we assume that any element of the line has only a finite number of c…

method Generalization of Morse theory to non-degenerate locally tame singularities.
result Difference of Brasselet numbers related to Morse critical points of functions.

In this paper we continue an earlier study of ends non-compact manifolds. The over-arching goal is to investigate and obtain generalizations of Siebenmann's famous collaring theorem that may be applied to manifolds having non-stable fundamental group systems at infinity. In this paper we show that, for manifolds with c…

We show that every countable subgroup G<GL+(2,R)G<\rm GL_+(2,\mathbb{R}) without contracting elements is the Veech group of a tame translation surface SS of infinite genus, for infinitely many different topological types of SS. Moreover, we prove that as long as every end has genus, there are no restrictions on the topologic…

This paper contains a purely topological theorem and a geometric application. The topological theorem states that if M is a simple closed orientable 3-manifold such that π_1(M) contains a genus g surface group and H_1(M;Z/2Z) has rank at least 4g-1 then M contains a closed incompressible surface of genus at most g. Thi…

We establish a general slice theorem for the action of a locally convex Lie group on a locally convex manifold, which generalizes the classical slice theorem of Palais to infinite dimensions. We discuss two important settings under which the assumptions of this theorem are fulfilled. First, using Glöckner's inverse fun…

We show that any simply connected topological closed 44-manifold punctured along any compact, totally disconnected tame subset ΛΛ admits a continuum of smoothings which are not diffeomorphic to any leaf of a C1,0C^{1,0} codimension one foliation on a compact manifold. This includes the remarkable case of S4S^4 puncture…

We introduce the new class of submanifolds of co-Banach type in tame Fréchet manifolds and construct tame Fréchet submanifolds as inverse images of regular values of certain tame maps. Our method furnishes an easy way to construct tame Fréchet manifolds. The results presented are key ingredients in the construction of …

We show that every non-trivial tame knot or link in R^3 has a quadrisecant, i.e. four collinear points. The quadrisecant must be topologically non-trivial in a precise sense. As an application, we show that a nonsingular, algebraic surface in R^3 which is a knotted torus must have degree at least eight.

Tame Flowsmath.GT

The tame flows are ``nice'' flows on ``nice'' spaces. The nice (tame) sets are the pfaffian sets introduced by Khovanski, and a flow Φ:R×XXΦ: \mathbb{R}\times X\to X on pfaffian set XX is tame if the graph of ΦΦ is a pfaffian subset of R×X×X\mathbb{R}\times X\times X. Any compact tame set admits plenty tame flows. We prove …

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 …

Paper proposes a new method to stabilize noisy gradient algorithms.

We propose to learn a hierarchical prior in the context of variational autoencoders to avoid the over-regularisation resulting from a standard normal prior distribution. To incentivise an informative latent representation of the data, we formulate the learning problem as a constrained optimisation problem by extending …

Solenoids are ``inverse limits'' of the circle, and the classical knot theory is the theory of tame embeddings of the circle into the 3-space.

We supply a proof of the fact that a hyperbolic 3-manifold MM with finitely generated fundamental group and with no parabolics is topologically tame. This proves the Marden's conjecture. Our approach is to form an exhaustion MiM_i of MM and modify the boundary to make them 2-convex. We use the induced path-metric, wh…

We give an efficient simplicial formula for the volume and Chern-Simons invariant of a boundary-parabolic PSL(2,C)-representation of a tame 3-manifold. If the representation is the geometric representation of a hyperbolic 3-manifold, our formula computes the volume and Chern-Simons invariant directly from an ideal tria…
