The study finds many Möbius bands and annuli on toroids.

Characterizes knotted toroidal sets as attractors in 3D.

We classify the minimum volume smooth complex hyperbolic surfaces that admit smooth toroidal compactifications, and we explicitly construct their compactifications. There are five such surfaces and they are all arithmetic, i.e., they are associated with quotients of the ball by an arithmetic lattice. Moreover, the asso…

We classify the smallest finite volume complex hyperbolic surfaces with cusps which admit smooth toroidal compactifications and which are not birational to a bi-elliptic surface. Remarkably, there is only one such surface which appears to be the compactification of a Picard modular surface.

Characterizes toroidal and semi-toric compactifications as log minimal models and applies to weak K-moduli.

We study the classification of smooth toroidal compactifications of nonuniform ball quotients in the sense of Kodaira and Enriques. Moreover, several results concerning the Riemannian and complex algebraic geometry of these spaces are given. In particular we show that there are compact complex surfaces which admit Riem…

Method to create rational Seifert surfaces for knots in Lens space.

New positive mass theorems for ALH manifolds with toroidal ends.

We study the number of distinct ways in which a smooth projective surface $X$ can be realized as a smooth toroidal compactification of a ball quotient. It follows from work of Hirzebruch that there are infinitely many distinct ball quotients with birational smooth toroidal compactifications. We take this to its natural…

Solves Skopenkov's problem on graph embedding criteria.

New families of twisted torus knots found with essential surfaces.

Riemannian geometrical tools, such as Ricci collineations and Killing symmetries, so often used in Einstein general theory of gravitation are here applied to plasma physics to build magnetic surfaces from Einstein plasma metrics used in tokamak devices. It is shown that the Killing symmetries are constrains the Einstei…

We derive a sharp cusp count for finite volume complex hyperbolic surfaces which admit smooth toroidal compactifications. We use this result, and the techniques developed in [DiC12], to study the geometry of cusped complex hyperbolic surfaces and their compactifications.

Let $F$ be a closed essential surface in a hyperbolic 3-manifold $M$ with a toroidal cusp $N$. The depth of $F$ in $N$ is the maximal distance from points of $F$ in $N$ to the boundary of $N$. It will be shown that if $F$ is an essential pleated surface which is not coannular to the boundary torus of $N$ then the depth…

Detect slopes in toroidal 3-manifolds to prove properties of fundamental groups.

In this paper, we build properly embedded singly periodic minimal surfaces which have infinite total curvature in the quotient by the period. These surfaces are constructed by adding a handle to the toroidal half-plane layers defined by H. Karcher. The technics that use is to solve a Jenkins-Serrin problem over a strip…

Study bounds topological entropy of toroidal attractors.

For a hyperbolic knot in the 3-sphere, at most finitely many Dehn surgeries yield non-hyperbolic 3-manifolds. As a typical case of such an exceptional surgery, a toroidal surgery is one that yields a closed 3-manifold containing an incompressible torus. The slope corresponding to a toroidal surgery, called a toroidal s…

New method calculates Thurston norm for 3-manifolds with toroidal boundaries.

This paper classifies commensurability of Deligne-Mostow lattices.

We prove several global existence theorems for spacetimes with toroidal or hyperbolic symmetry with respect to a geometrically defined time. More specifically, we prove that generically, the maximal Cauchy development of $T^2$-symmetric initial data with positive cosmological constant $Λ>0$, in the vacuum or with Vlaso…

The paper extends knot theory to annular and toroidal pseudo knots.

Plasma toroidal metric singularities in helical devices and tokamaks, giving rise to magnetic surfaces inside the plasma devices are investigated in two cases. In the first we consider the case of a rotational plasma on an helical device with circular cross-section and dissipation. In this case singularities are shown …

Define mass invariant for asymptotically hyperbolic 3-manifolds with toroidal infinity.

We define a parabolic flow of pluriclosed metrics. This flow is of the same family introduced by the authors in \cite{ST}. We study the relationship of the existence of the flow and associated static metrics topological information on the underlying complex manifold. Solutions to the static equation are automatically H…

For a hyperbolic knot in the 3-sphere, the distance between toroidal surgeries is at most 5, except the figure eight knot. In this paper, we determine all hyperbolic knots that admit two toroidal surgeries with distance 5.

Every closed orientable surface S has the following property: any two connected covers of S of the same degree are homeomorphic (as spaces). In this, paper we give a complete classification of compact 3-manifolds with empty or toroidal boundary which have the above property. We also discuss related group-theoretic ques…

If a simple 3-manifold M admits a reducible and a toroidal Dehn filling, the distance between the filling slopes is known to be bounded by three. In this paper, we classify all manifolds which admit a reducible Dehn filling and a toroidal Dehn filling with distance 3.

We prove the Turaev-Viro invariants volume conjecture for a "universal" class of cusped hyperbolic 3-manifolds that produces all 3-manifolds with empty or toroidal boundary by Dehn filling. This leads to two-sided bounds on the volume of any hyperbolic 3-manifold with empty or toroidal boundary in terms of the growth r…

The paper constructs monopole Floer homology for specific 3-manifolds and surfaces.

Optimal Euclidean structure minimizes energy in weighted toroidal graphs.

We extend Howie's characterization of alternating knots to give a topological characterization of toroidally alternating knots, which were defined by Adams. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a knot to be toroidally alternating. We also give a topological characterization of almost-alternating knots whi…

Study of alternating links on nonorientable surfaces, extending results to nonorientable projections.

In this paper we focus on compacta $K \subseteq \mathbb{R}^3$ which possess a neighbourhood basis that consists of nested solid tori $T_i$. We call these sets toroidal. In \cite{hecyo1} we defined the genus of a toroidal set as a generalization of the classical notion of genus from knot theory. Here we introduce the se…

The paper extends knotoid theory to annular and toroidal settings.

Study on MHD equilibria on curved spaces without symmetries.

We give a complete classification of toroidal Seifert fibered surgeries on alternating knots. Precisely, we show that if an alternating knot admits a toroidal Seifert fibered surgery, then the knot is either the trefoil knot and the surgery slope is zero, or the connected sum of a (2,p)-torus knot and a (2,q)-torus kno…

The paper introduces triple grid diagrams to construct Lagrangian surfaces in complex projective space.

We show that if a Montesinos knot admits a Dehn surgery yielding a toroidal Seifert fibered 3-manifold, then the knot is the trefoil knot and the surgery slope is 0.

Using the virtual fibering theorem of Agol we show that a sutured 3-manifold $(M, R_+,R_-,γ)$ is taut if and only if the $\ell^2$-Betti numbers of the pair $(M,R_-)$ are zero. As an application we can characterize Thurston norm minimizing surfaces in a 3-manifold $N$ with empty or toroidal boundary by the vanishing of …

Exceptional Dehn surgeries have been classified for 2-bridge knots and Montesinos knots of length at least 4. In this paper we classify all toroidal Dehn surgeries on Montesinos knots of length 3.

A surface functional theory for p-dimensional extended objects, the p-branes, was proposed in previous papers. The field equations for toroidal p-branes was exactly solved in $d=p+2$ dimensions, yielding equally spaced mass-squared spectrum with massless states. In this paper, we obtain the asymptotic distribution of m…
