In Hirose (Tohoku Math. J. 62 (2010), 45–53), Susumu Hirose showed that, except for a few cases, the order $N$ of a cyclic group of self-homeomorphisms of a closed orientable topological surface $S_{g}$ of genus $g\geqslant 2$ determines the group up to a topological conjugation, provided that $N\geqslant 3g$. Gromadzki et al. undertook in Bagiński et al. (Collect. Math. 67 (2016), 415–429) a more general problem of topological classification of such group actions for $N>2(g-1)$. In Gromadzki and Szepietowski (Rev. R. Acad. Cienc. Exactas Fís. Nat. Ser. A Mat. RACSAM 110 (2016), 303–320), we considered the analogous problem for closed nonorientable surfaces, and in Gromadzki et al. (Pure Appl. Algebra 220 (2016), 465–481) – the problem of classification of cyclic actions generated by an orientation-reversing self-homeomorphism. The present paper, in which we deal with topological classification of actions on bordered surfaces of finite cyclic groups of order $N>p-1$, where $p$ is the algebraic genus of the surface, completes our project of topological classification of ‘‘large” cyclic actions on compact surfaces. We apply obtained results to solve the problem of uniqueness of the actions realizing the solutions of the so-called minimum genus and maximum order problems for bordered surfaces found in Bujalance et al. (Automorphisms Groups of Compact Bordered Klein Surfaces: A Combinatorial Approach, Lecture Notes in Mathematics 1439, Springer, 1990).

We show that, up to topological conjugation, the equivalence class of a Morse–Smale diffeomorphism without heteroclinic curves on a $3$-manifold is completely defined by an embedding of two-dimensional stable and unstable heteroclinic laminations to a characteristic space.

AbstractPhase singularities appear ubiquitously in wavefields, regardless of the wave equation. Such topological defects can lead to wavefront dislocations, as observed in a humongous number of classical wave experiments. Phase singularities of wave functions are also at the heart of the topological classification of the gapped phases of matter. Despite identical singular features, topological insulators and topological defects in waves remain two distinct fields. Realising 1D microwave insulators, we experimentally observe a wavefront dislocation – a 2D phase singularity – in the local density of states when the systems undergo a topological phase transition. We show theoretically that the change in the number of interference fringes at the transition reveals the topological index that characterises the band topology in the insulator.

Weak equivalence of primitive matrices is a known invariant arising naturally from the study of inverse limit spaces. Several new invariants for weak equivalence are described. It is proved that a positive dimension group isomorphism is a complete invariant for weak equivalence. For the transition matrices corresponding to periodic kneading sequences, the discriminant is proved to be an invariant when the characteristic polynomial is irreducible. The results have direct application to the topological classification of one-dimensional inverse limit spaces.

AbstractWe develop an orbifold theory for finite, cyclic groups acting on holomorphic vertex operator algebras. Then we show that Schellekens’ classification of {V_{1}}-structures of meromorphic conformal field theories of central charge 24 is a theorem on vertex operator algebras. Finally, we use these results to construct some new holomorphic vertex operator algebras of central charge 24 as lattice orbifolds.

Purpose. The purpose of this study is to consider the class of Morse – Smale flows on surfaces, to characterize its subclass consisting of flows with a finite number of moduli of stability, and to obtain a topological classification of such flows up to topological conjugacy, that is, to find an invariant that shows that there exists a homeomorphism that transfers the trajectories of one flow to the trajectories of another while preserving the direction of movement and the time of movement along the trajectories; for the obtained invariant, to construct a polynomial algorithm for recognizing its isomorphism and to construct the realisation of the invariant by a standard flow on the surface. Methods. Methods for finding moduli of topological conjugacy go back to the classical works of J. Palis, W. di Melo and use smooth flow lianerization in a neighborhood of equilibrium states and limit cycles. For the classification of flows, the traditional methods of dividing the phase surface into regions with the same behavior of trajectories are used, which are a modification of the methods of A. A. Andronov, E. A. Leontovich, and A. G. Mayer. Results. It is shown that a Morse – Smale flow on a surface has a finite number of moduli if and only if it does not have a trajectory going from one limit cycle to another. For a subclass of Morse – Smale flows with a finite number of moduli, a classification is done up to topological conjugacy by means of an equipped graph. Conclusion. The criterion for the finiteness of the number of moduli of Morse – Smale flows on surfaces is obtained. A topological invariant is constructed that describes the topological conjugacy class of a Morse – Smale flow on a surface with a finite number of modules, that is, without trajectories going from one limit cycle to another.
