We give a simple and practical algorithm to compute the link polynomials, which are defined according to the skein relations. Our method is based on a new total order on the set of all braid representatives. As by-product a new complete link invariant are obtained.
Let $D(M,N)$ be the set of integers that can be realized as the degree of a map between two closed connected orientable manifolds $M$ and $N$ of the same dimension. For closed $3$-manifolds with $S^3$-geometry $M$ and $N$, every such degree $deg f\equiv \overline{deg}ψ$ $(|π_1(N)|)$ where $0\le \overline{deg}ψ<|π_1(N)|$ and $\overline{deg}ψ$ only depends on the induced homomorphism $ψ=f_π$ on the fundamental group. In this paper, we calculate explicitly the set $\{\overline{deg}ψ\}$ when $ψ$ is surjective and then we show how to determine $\overline{deg}(ψ)$ for arbitrary homomorphisms. This leads to the determination of the set $D(M,N)$.
For the product $S_1\times S_2$ of any two connected compact hyperbolic surfaces $S_1$ and $S_2$, we give a finite bound $\mathcal{B}$ such that for any self-homeomorphism $f$ of $S_1\times S_2$ and any fixed point class $F$ of $f$, the index $|ind(f, F)|\leq \mathcal{B}$, which is an affirmative answer for a special case of a question asked by Boju Jiang. Moreover, we also give bounds for the Lefschetz number $L(f)$ and the Nielsen number $N(f)$ of the homeomorphism $f$.
In this paper we redefine an increasing filtration on the the Hopf algebra S(n,k), From which we get a spectral sequence called May spectral sequence. As an application we computed $H^{*,*}S(n,n)$ at prime 2, $H^{*,*}S(3,2)$ at prime 3 and $H^{*,*}S(4,2)$ at prime $p\geqslant 5$
Let $G$ be a compact and $1$--connected Lie group with a maximal torus $T$. Based on Schubert calculus on the flag manifold $G/T$ [15] we construct the integral cohomology ring $H^{\ast}(G)$ uniformly for all $G$.
Let G be a compact connected Lie group with a maximal torus T\subsetG. In the context of Schubert calculus we obtain a canonical presentation for the integral cohomology ring H^{\ast}(G/T) of the complete flag manifold G/T. The result have been applied in [15] to construct the integral cohomology ring H^{\ast}(G) in terms of Schubert classes on G/T, and in [16] to determine the structure of the modp cohomology H^{\ast}(G;F_{p}) as a Hopf algebra over the Steenrod algebra.
We study the homotopical minimal periods for maps on infra-solvmanifolds of type (R) using the density of the homotopical minimal period set in the natural numbers. This extends the result of [10] from flat manifolds to infra-solvmanifolds of type (R). Applying our main result we will list all possible maps on infra-solvmanifolds up to dimension three for which the corresponding density is positive.
Let G be an exceptional Lie group with a maximal torus T. Based on common properties in the Schubert presentation of the cohomology ring H*(G/T;F_{p}) DZ1, and concrete expressions of generalized Weyl invariants for G over F_{p}, we obtain a unified approach to the structure of H*(G;F_{p}) as a Hopf algebra over the Steenrod algebra A_{p}. The results has been applied in Du2 to determine the near--Hopf ring structure on the integral cohomology of all exceptional Lie groups.
Based on the Basis theorem of Bruhat--Chevalley [C] and the formula for multiplying Schubert classes obtained in [D\QTR{group}{u}] and programed in [DZ$_{\QTR{group}{1}}$], we introduce a new method computing the Chow rings of flag varieties (resp. the integral cohomology of homogeneous spaces). The method and results of this paper have been extended in [DZ$_{3}$, DZ$_{4}$] to obtain the integral cohomology rings of all complete flag manifolds, and to construct the integral cohomologies of Lie groups in terms of Schubert classes.
In this appendix we tabulate preliminary data used in establishing Theorem 1-14 in the paper ``The Chow rings of generalized Grassmannians''
Based on the multiplicative rule of Schubert classes obtained in [Du3], we present an algorithm computing the product of two arbitrary Schubert classes. As a result, the algorithm gives also a method to compute the integral cohomology ring of a flag manifold independent of the classical spectral sequence technique due to Leray and Borel.
The classical Schubert cells on a flag manifold G/H give a cell decomposition for G/H whose Kronecker duals (known as Schubert classes) form an additive base for the integral cohomology H^{\ast}(G/H). We present a formula that expresses Steenrod mod-p operations on Schubert classes in G/H in terms of Cartan numbers of G.
