Geometry of fluid motion

Boris Khesin (2002/2003)

Séminaire Équations aux dérivées partielles

We survey two problems illustrating geometric-topological and Hamiltonian methods in fluid mechanics: energy relaxation of a magnetic field and conservation laws for ideal fluid motion. More details and results, as well as a guide to the literature on these topics can be found in [3].

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.

Heegaard splittings of the pair of solid torus and the core loop.

Chuichiro Hayashi, Koya Shimokawa (2001)

Revista Matemática Complutense

We show that any Heegaard splitting of the pair of the solid torus (≅D2xS1) and its core loop (an interior point xS1) is standard, using the notion of Heegaard splittings of pairs of 3-manifolds and properly imbedded graphs, which is defined in this paper.

Hodge–type structures as link invariants

Maciej Borodzik, András Némethi (2013)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Based on some analogies with the Hodge theory of isolated hypersurface singularities, we define Hodge–type numerical invariants of any, not necessarily algebraic, link in a three–sphere. We call them H–numbers. They contain the same amount of information as the (non degenerate part of the) real Seifert matrix. We study their basic properties, and we express the Tristram–Levine signatures and the higher order Alexander polynomial in terms of them. Motivated by singularity theory, we also introduce...

Homfly polynomials as vassiliev link invariants

Taizo Kanenobu, Yasuyuki Miyazawa (1998)

Banach Center Publications

We prove that the number of linearly independent Vassiliev invariants for an r-component link of order n, which derived from the HOMFLY polynomial, is greater than or equal to min{n,[(n+r-1)/2]}.

Homology lens spaces and Dehn surgery on homology spheres

Craig Guilbault (1994)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

A homology lens space is a closed 3-manifold with ℤ-homology groups isomorphic to those of a lens space. A useful theorem found in [Fu] states that a homology lens space M 3 may be obtained by an (n/1)-Dehn surgery on a homology 3-sphere if and only if the linking form of M 3 is equivalent to (1/n). In this note we generalize this result to cover all homology lens spaces, and in the process offer an alternative proof based on classical 3-manifold techniques.
