Let [Formula: see text] be a compact, connected, nonorientable surface of genus [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] boundary components. Let [Formula: see text] be the curve complex of [Formula: see text]. We prove that if [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text], then there is an exhaustion of [Formula: see text] by a sequence of finite rigid sets. This improves the author’s result on exhaustion of [Formula: see text] by a sequence of finite superrigid sets.

In this paper, we give multiple situations when having one or two geometrically distinct closed geodesics on a complete Riemannian cylinder, a complete Möbius band or a complete Riemannian plane leads to having infinitely many geometrically distinct closed geodesics. In particular, we prove that any complete cylinder with isolated closed geodesics has zero, one or infinitely many homologically visible closed geodesics; this answers a question of Alberto Abbondandolo.

Given a countable metric space, we can consider its end. Then a basis of a Hilbert space indexed by the metric space defines an end of the Hilbert space, which is a new notion and different from an end as a metric space. Such an indexed basis also defines unitary operators of finite propagation, and these operators preserve an end of a Hilbert space. Then, we can define a Hilbert bundle with end, which lightens up new structures of Hilbert bundles. In a special case, we can define characteristic classes of Hilbert bundles with ends, which are new invariants of Hilbert bundles. We show Hilbert bundles with ends appear in natural contexts. First, we generalize the pushforward of a vector bundle along a finite covering to an infinite covering, which is a Hilbert bundle with end under a mild condition. Then we compute characteristic classes of some pushforwards along infinite coverings. Next, we will show the spectral decompositions of nice differential operators give rise to Hilbert bundles with ends, which elucidate new features of spectral decompositions. The spectral decompositions we will consider are the Fourier transform and the harmonic oscillators.

We develop Morse–Bott theory on posets, generalizing both discrete Morse–Bott theory for regular complexes and Morse theory on posets. Moreover, we prove a Lusternik–Schnirelmann theorem for general matchings on posets, in particular, for Morse–Bott functions.

In this note, we generalize a result of Mikkelsen–Szymański and show that, for every [Formula: see text], any bounded ∗-representation of the quantum symplectic sphere [Formula: see text] annihilates the first [Formula: see text] generators. We then classify irreducible representations of its coordinate algebra [Formula: see text].

We (re)consider how the Fukaya category of a Lefschetz fibration is related to that of the fiber. The distinguishing feature of the approach here is a more direct identification of the bimodule homomorphism involved.

This paper is a systematic approach to the construction of coronas (i.e. Higson dominated boundaries at infinity) of combable spaces. We introduce three additional properties for combings: properness, coherence and expandingness. Properness is the condition under which our construction of the corona works. Under the assumption of coherence and expandingness, attaching our corona to a Rips complex construction yields a contractible [Formula: see text]-compact space in which the corona sits as a [Formula: see text]-set. This results in bijectivity of transgression maps, injectivity of the coarse assembly map and surjectivity of the coarse co-assembly map. For groups we get an estimate on the cohomological dimension of the corona in terms of the asymptotic dimension. Furthermore, if the group admits a finite model for its classifying space [Formula: see text], then our constructions yield a [Formula: see text]-structure for the group.

We introduce the effectual topological complexity (ETC) of a [Formula: see text]-space [Formula: see text]. This is a [Formula: see text]-equivariant homotopy invariant sitting in between the effective topological complexity of the pair [Formula: see text] and the (regular) topological complexity of the orbit space [Formula: see text]. We study ETC for spheres and surfaces with antipodal involution, obtaining a full computation in the case of the torus. This allows us to prove the vanishing of twice the nontrivial obstruction responsible for the fact that the topological complexity of the Klein bottle is [Formula: see text]. In addition, this gives a counterexample to the possibility — suggested in Pavešić’s work on the topological complexity of a map — that ETC of [Formula: see text] would agree with Farber’s [Formula: see text] whenever the projection map [Formula: see text] is finitely sheeted. We conjecture that ETC of spheres with antipodal action recasts the Hopf invariant one problem, and describe (conjecturally optimal) effectual motion planners.
