Good metric spaces without good parameterizations.

Stephen Semmes (1996)

Revista Matemática Iberoamericana

A classical problem in geometric topology is to recognize when a topological space is a topological manifold. This paper addresses the question of when a metric space admits a quasisymmetric parametrization by providing examples of spaces with many Eucledian-like properties which are nonetheless substantially different from Euclidean geometry. These examples are geometrically self-similar versions of classical topologically self-similar examples from geometric topology, and they can be realized...

Gradients de Heegaard sous-logarithmiques d’une variété hyperbolique de dimension trois et fibres virtuelles

Claire Renard (2010/2011)

Séminaire de théorie spectrale et géométrie

J. Maher a montré qu’une variété hyperbolique de dimension 3 compacte sans bord, connexe et orientable fibre virtuellement sur le cercle si et seulement si elle admet une famille infinie de revêtements finis de genre de Heegaard borné. En s’appuyant sur la démonstration de Maher, cet article présente un théorème donnant une condition suffisante pour qu’un revêtement fini d’une variété hyperbolique compacte de dimension 3 contienne une fibre virtuelle, qui s’exprime en fonction du degré d du revêtement...

Graph Cohomology, Colored Posets and Homological Algebra in Functor Categories

Jolanta Słomińska (2012)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

The homology theory of colored posets, defined by B. Everitt and P. Turner, is generalized. Two graph categories are defined and Khovanov type graph cohomology are interpreted as Ext* groups in functor categories associated to these categories. The connection, described by J. H. Przytycki, between the Hochschild homology of an algebra and the graph cohomology, defined for the same algebra and a cyclic graph, is explained from the point of view of homological algebra in functor categories.

Gropes and the rational lift of the Kontsevich integral

James Conant (2004)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We calculate the leading term of the rational lift of the Kontsevich integral, Z , introduced by Garoufalidis and Kricker, on the boundary of an embedded grope of class, 2n. We observe that it lies in the subspace spanned by connected diagrams of Euler degree 2n-2 and with a bead t-1 on a single edge. This places severe algebraic restrictions on the sort of knots that can bound gropes, and in particular implies the two main results of the author’s thesis [1], at least over the rationals.
