Primary decomposition in the smooth concordance group of topologically slice knots

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Sigma, 2021
We address primary decomposition conjectures for knot concordance groups, which predict direct sum decompositions into primary parts. We show that the smooth concordance group of topologically slice knots has a large subgroup for which the conjectures ...

On the torsional energy of torus knots under infinitesimal bending

open access: yesAnalele Stiintifice ale Universitatii Ovidius Constanta: Seria Matematica, 2023
The article deals with the infinitesimal bending theory application to the knots theory. The impact of infinitesimal bending on the torsional energy at torus knots is considered, and the results show that it is not stationary under infinitesimal bending.

E8 spectral curves

open access: yesProceedings of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 121, Issue 4, Page 954-1032, October 2020., 2020
Abstract I provide an explicit construction of spectral curves for the affine E8 relativistic Toda chain. Their closed‐form expression is obtained by determining the full set of character relations in the representation ring of E8 for the exterior algebra of the adjoint representation; this is in turn employed to provide an explicit construction of ...

$q$-DEFORMED RATIONALS AND $q$-CONTINUED FRACTIONS

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Sigma, 2020
We introduce a notion of $q$-deformed rational numbers and $q$-deformed continued fractions. A $q$-deformed rational is encoded by a triangulation of a polygon and can be computed recursively. The recursive formula is analogous to the $q$-deformed Pascal

SIMPLY CONNECTED, SPINELESS 4-MANIFOLDS

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Sigma, 2019
We construct infinitely many compact, smooth 4-manifolds which are homotopy equivalent to $S^{2}$ but do not admit a spine (that is, a piecewise linear embedding of $S^{2}$ that realizes the homotopy equivalence).

Involutory biquandles and singular knots and links

open access: yesOpen Mathematics, 2018
We define a new algebraic structure for singular knots and links. It extends the notion of a bikei (or involutory biquandle) from regular knots and links to singular knots and links. We call this structure a singbikei.

THE CONORMAL TORUS IS A COMPLETE KNOT INVARIANT

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Pi, 2019
We use microlocal sheaf theory to show that knots can only have Legendrian isotopic conormal tori if they themselves are isotopic or mirror images.

A study about the Tutte polynomials of benzenoid chains

open access: yesTopological Algebra and its Applications, 2017
The Tutte polynomials for signed graphs were introduced by Kauffman. In 2012, Fath-Tabar, Gholam-Rezaeı and Ashrafı presented a formula for computing Tutte polynomial of a benzenoid chain. From this point on, we have also calculated the Tutte polynomials

NONSURJECTIVE SATELLITE OPERATORS AND PIECEWISE-LINEAR CONCORDANCE

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Sigma, 2016
We exhibit a knot $P$ in the solid torus, representing a generator of first homology, such that for any knot

On the Reidemeister torsion of rational homology spheres

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 25, Issue 1, Page 11-17, 2001., 2001
We prove that the Modℤ reduction of the Reidemeister torsion of a rational homology 3‐sphere is naturally a ℚ/ℤ‐valued quadratic function uniquely determined by a ℚ/ℤ‐constant and the linking form.
