DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS Projects in Topology, Geometry and Combinatorics Projects with Peter Eccles Ron Ledgard Nige Ray Igor Rivin ... Grant Walker , and Reg Wood The following list gives outlines of some representative MPhil and PhD projects for which we offer supervision. The list is not exhaustive, and we are always willing to listen to constructive requests and suggestions on related topics! We all enjoy working with postgraduate students, so if you fancy the thought of researching into one or more of these areas, send us a message now. If you feel you need further information before making an application, we are likely to invite you to Manchester at our expense and talk through the possibilities with you in person; we will arrange for you to meet some of our current students, who will also show you around. Projects with Peter Eccles SELF-INTERSECTIONS OF IMMERSIONS: Examples of immersions are given by the figure eight in the plane (an immersion of the circle with one double point), by the usual picture of the Klein bottle in three-space (which has a circle of double points), and by Boy's surface, a model of the projective plane in three-space with an immersed circle of double points and a single triple point. Although my initial research concerned the homotopy of infinite loop spaces (see the projects on coherence ), I was amazed to discover applications to the study of manifolds which arise as the self-intersections of immersions; these led me to the solution of problems which had been outstanding since the pioneering work of Hassler Whitney in the 1940s. My viewpoint combines many fundamental aspects of algebraic and differential topology, and offers projects which involve aspects of those in

University of Oxford Mathematical Institute Skip Links Locator: Home Events Site Map Topology, Geometry and Quantum Field Theory Geometry and quantum physics developed in parallel since the recognition of the central role of non-abelian gauge theory in elementary particle physics in the late seventies and the emerging study of supersymmetry and string theory. The topics of this symposium were centred around string theory, M-theory, and quantum gravity on the one hand, and K-theory, elliptic cohomology, quantum cohomology and string topology on the other. Its purpose was to bring experts in topology, geometry and string theory together. The Symposium took place in Oxford from 24-29 June 2002, and the conference dinner was held in honor of Graeme Segal's 60th birthday. The organizer was U. Tillmann. Participants List of participants Photos Conference photos are now available Proceedings All speakers and participants of the symposium are invited to contribute. Submissions from other members of the scientific community will also be considered. The proceedings will be refereed. The aim is to have a mixture of high quality survey articles, preliminary reports on important research developments, and research articles of a good standard. Please note the following deadlines: 15 Sep. 2002

28. Popular Texts The core of the book is the material included usually into the topology part of the two year geometry course in the Mathematical Department of St. Petersburg University. This lecture course was composed by Vladimir Abramovich Rokhlin in the sixties and has almost not changed since then. http://www.math.uu.se/~oleg/educ-texts.html

Textbook in Problems on Elementary Topology by O.Ya.Viro, O.A.Ivanov, V.M.Kharlamov and N.Y.Netsvetaev. This is a textbook on Elementary Topology. Still, it is not finished. Hopefully, it will not be yet another textbook. Here is Foreword where we describe ideas and tricks, which can help to get the first impression about the project. To find out more, take a look on Table of Contents I would appreciate any criticism or suggestions either on the general principles or any specific part of the text. The latest version of the whole book (a PostScript file) can be taken here Russian version, which is even less complete, can be found here. Configurations of Skew Lines in the 3-Dimensional Space This is a survey of results on projective configurations of subspaces in general position written by Julia Viro and Oleg Viro in the form of a popular introduction to the subject, with much of the material accessible to advanced high school students. However, in the part of the survey concerning configurations of lines in general position in three-dimensional space we give a complete exposition. The same paper in postscript format: Interlacings of Skew Lines Introduction into Topology of Real Algebraic Varieties Postscript files of the first sections of this text: The Early Topological Study of Real Algebraic Plane Curves A Real Algebraic Curve from the Complex Point of View The Topological Point of View on Prohibitions Patchworking A popular paper concerning a technique for constructing real algebraic varieties by gluing pieces together and counter-examples to the oldest conjecture about topology of real algebraic curves (published in the Intelligencer).

Text only Department of Mathematics Home Research > Geometry and Algebraic Topology Home Research Algebra Analysis ... Contact Geometry and Algebraic Topology In many respects, the latter half of the 20th Century has been a golden age of Geometry and Topology, with spectacular advances in the study of manifolds (particularly in dimension 4), Global Analysis including Index Theory, complex manifolds and Algebraic Geometry, including its applications in Number Theory. Increasingly, strong connections with integrable system theory and global aspects of differential equations as well as the remarkable two-way flow of ideas between Geometry and Theoretical Physics are dominating developments. Algebraic Topology has developed important machinery such as cohomology theories including ordinary cohomology, K -theory, cobordism and elliptic cohomology. These are often of use in geometric situations, as well as within Algebraic Topology itself which tends to study much less `rigid' geometric situations than Geometers do. There have also been significant interactions with many areas of Algebra, and indeed much of Algebraic Topology can be viewed as `applied algebra' as well as being a major source of innovative algebraic ideas. Departmental research activity in Geometry and Topology occurs in the following areas.

Title: Exotic smooth structures on rational surfaces Abstract: Most known smoothable simply connected 4manifolds admit infinitely many different smooth structures (distinguished, for example, by SeibergWitten invariants). There are some 4manifolds, though, for which the existence of such 'exotic' structures is still open, the most notable examples being the 4dimensional sphere S^4 and the complex projective plane CP^2. In a recent project with Z. Szabo and J. Park we found constructions of exotic smooth structures on the five- and six-fold blowup of CP^2. In the lecture we describe the construction of these 4manifolds and indicate the necessary input from SeibergWitten theory for proving their exoticness. Tuesday, February 22. No seminar. (But see Friday's colloquium.)

38. Geometry And The Imagination Has a small section on knot theory at an introductory level. Also has sections on orbifolds, polyhedra and topology. http://math.dartmouth.edu/~doyle/docs/gi/gi/gi.html

Bicycle tracks C. Dennis Thron has called attention to the following passage from The Adventure of the Priory School , by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle: `This track, as you perceive, was made by a rider who was going from the direction of the school.' `Or towards it?' `No, no, my dear Watson. The more deeply sunk impression is, of course, the hind wheel, upon which the weight rests. You perceive several places where it has passed across and obliterated the more shallow mark of the front one. It was undoubtedly heading away from the school.' Problems Discuss this passage. Does Holmes know what he's talking about? Try to come up with a method for telling which way a bike has gone by looking at the track it has left. There are all kinds of possibilities here. Which methods do you honestly think will work, and under what conditions? For example, does your method only work if the bike has passed through a patch of wet cement? Would it work for tracks on the beach? Tracks on a patch of dry sidewalk between puddles? Tracks through short, dewy grass? Tracks along a thirty-foot length of brown package-wrapping paper, made by a bike whose tires have been carefully coated with mud, and which has been just ridden long enough before reaching the paper so that the tracks are not appreciably darker at one end of the paper than the other? Try to determine the direction of travel for the idealized bike tracks in Figure Figure 1: Which way did the bicycle go?
