Fillable structures on negative-definite Seifert fibred spaces

Alberto Cavallo, Irena Matkovic · 2026

We classify fillable contact structures on all negative-definite star-shaped plumbings. Along the way, we show that such Seifert fibred spaces admit a unique negative maximal twisting number, and comp…

Heegaard Floer homology and maximal twisting numbers

Alberto Cavallo, Irena Matkovic · 2026

We adapt the Ozsv\'ath-Szab\'o full path algorithm to every star-shaped graph and establish a correspondence between negative-twisting tight contact structures on any Seifert fibred space over $S^2$, …

On the monotonicity of affine quermassintegrals

Shibing Chen, Yuanyuan Li, Xianduo Wang · 2026

Lutwak's affine quermassintegral theory is a foundational component of modern affine Brunn--Minkowski theory. Developed in the 1980s, it provides affine analogues of the classical quermassintegrals an…

Koszul modules, holonomy Lie algebras, and resonance of groups and CDGAs

Alexander I. Suciu · 2026

We develop a Koszul-theoretic framework for comparing classical Alexander-type invariants with infinitesimal invariants arising from finite-type commutative differential graded algebra models. The cen…

Twisted Alexander Polynomials, Ribbon Homology Cobordisms, and the Thurston Norm

Brian Sun · 2026

Let $Y_-$ and $Y_+$ be two compact 3-manifolds with empty or toroidal boundary. A 4-dimensional ribbon homology cobordism is a homologically trivial cobordism built with 1-handles and 2-handles. In th…

Solvable Descent and the Grunwald Problem for Solvable Groups

Julian L. Demeio · 2026

We prove a suitable fibration theorem over quasi-trivial tori that, through an approach developed by Harpaz and Wittenberg, implies so-called solvable descent. In particular, this gives a positive ans…

Quandles from gauge transformations

Ryo Hayami · 2026

In this paper, we investigate a quandle structure induced by an augmented rack arising from a gauge transformation group. We construct a quandle from a principal bundle and its discrete generalization…

The Cayley graph of a quandle

David Dolzan, Bogdana Oliynyk · 2026

In this paper, we investigate structural properties of the Cayley graph of a quandle and describe this graph for several important classes of quandles, including conjugation, Takasaki, dihedral, and A…

The ${\rm SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$-character variety of the magic $3$-manifold

Haimiao Chen · 2026

We determine the irreducible ${\rm SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$-character variety of the 3-chain link exterior which is called the `magic $3$-manifold', and deduce a formula for the twisted Alexander polynomial…

Self perimeter of convex sets

Gershon Wolansky · 2026

This paper introduces a natural definition for the volume of the unit ball in $n$-dimensional normed spaces $\mathbb{R}^n$. This definition preserves the Euclidean relation $P(B)/V(B)=n$ between the p…

Cappell-Shaneson knot pairs with the same Alexander polynomial

Hisaaki Endo, Kazunori Iwaki, Andrei Pajitnov · 2026

It is well known that for $m\geq 2$ there are at most two non-equivalent $m$-knots with diffeomorphic exterior. Such pair of knots will be called $\textit{ non-reflexive knot pair}$. A classical probl…

Computing Alexander polynomials for arborescent links

Haimiao Chen · 2026

For arborescent links, we present an efficient method of computing their Alexander polynomials. Applying this method, we express the Alexander polynomials of Montesinos links in terms of certain funct…

Uniform estimates and Brezis-Merle type inequalities for the $k$-Hessian equation

Jie Deng, Haibin Wang, Bin Zhou · 2026

In this paper, we prove a Brezis-Merle type inequality for $k$-convex functions vanishing on the boundary. As an application, we establish an Alexandrov-Bakelman-Pucci type estimate for the intermedia…

Measure preserving maps with bounded total variation

Stefano Bianchini, Luca Talamini · 2026

Consider a piecewise affine Lipschitz map $\phi : \Omega \to \mathbb R$, where $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^d$ is an open set, and assume that $x \mapsto x + t \nabla \phi(x)$ is injective for almost eve…

Simis and packing properties of Alexander dual of connected ideals

Om Prakash Bhardwaj, Kanoy Kumar Das, Rutuja Sawant · 2026

In this article, we investigate when the ordinary and symbolic powers of the Alexander dual of connected ideals of graphs coincide, and provide a complete classification of all such graphs. Furthermor…

Explicit Betti Numbers for Skeletons of Chordal Clique Complexes and Their Alexander Duals

Mohammed Rafiq Namiq · 2026

We study the homological properties of $\Delta_{\mathbf{r}}(n_1, \dots, n_e)$, a simplicial complex formed by sequentially gluing complete graphs along $(r_i-1)$-simplices. This construction generates…
