A Narasimhan-Seshardri-Donaldson Correspondance over Non-orientable Surfaces.
The purpose of this note is to prove the converse of the Lefschetz fixed point theorem (CLT) together with an equivariant version of the converse of the Lefschetz deformation theorem (CDT) in the category of finite G-simplicial complexes, where G is a finite group.
The Polish space Y constructed in [vM1] admits no nontrivial isotopy. Yet, there exists a Polish group that acts transitively on Y.
In this paper we show that given any 3-manifold and any non-fibered class in there exists a representation such that the corresponding twisted Alexander polynomial is zero. We obtain this result by extending earlier work of ours and by combining this with recent results of Agol and Wise on separability of 3-manifold groups. This result allows us to completely classify symplectic 4-manifolds with a free circle action, and to determine their symplectic cones.
