Classification of genus-$1$ holomorphic Lefschetz pencils

Abstract

In this paper, we classify relatively minimal genus-$1$ holomorphic Lefschetz pencils up to smooth isomorphism. We first show that such a pencil is isomorphic to either the pencil on $\mathbb{P}^1\times \mathbb{P}^1$ of bi-degree $(2,2)$ or a blow-up of the pencil on $\mathbb{P}^2$ of degree $3$, provided that no fiber of a pencil contains an embedded sphere. (Note that one can easily classify genus-$1$ Lefschetz pencils with an embedded sphere in a fiber.) We further determine the monodromy factorizations of these pencils and show that the isomorphism class of a blow-up of the pencil on $\mathbb{P}^2$ of degree $3$ does not depend on the choice of blown-up base points. We also show that the genus-$1$ Lefschetz pencils constructed by Korkmaz-Ozbagci (with nine base points) and Tanaka (with eight base points) are respectively isomorphic to the pencils on $\mathbb{P}^2$ and $\mathbb{P}^1\times \mathbb{P}^1$ above, in particular these are both holomorphic.

Hyperbolic links associated to Hamiltonian subgraphs in simple $3$-polytopes

We build a large family of hyperbolic links with an explicit decomposition of the complement into right-angled hyperbolic polytopes of finite volume. Namely, in a series of papers A.D.Mednykn and A.Yu.Vesnin introduced a construction that for a given right-angled polytope $P$ in geometry $\mathbb L^3$, $\mathbb R^3$, $\mathbb S^3$, $\mathbb L^2\times \mathbb R$, $\mathbb S^2\times \mathbb R$ and a Hamiltonian cycle, theta-subgraph or $K_4$-subgraph $Γ$ in the $1$-skeleton of $P$ builds a geometric $3$-manifold $N(P,Γ)$ with an involution $τ$ such that $N(P,Γ)/\langleτ\rangle\simeq S^3$. The brach set of the corresponding $2$-sheeted branched covering $N(P,Γ)\to S^3$ is a link $C_Γ\subset S^3$ consisting of trivially embedded circles. This construction reformulated in the language of toric topology works for such a subgraph $Γ$ in any simple $3$-polytope $P$ and gives a topological $3$-manifold $N(P,Γ)$. We give a criterion when $S^3\setminus C_Γ$ has a complete hyperbolic structure of finite volume and generalize this criterion to similar links in $3$-manifolds different from $S^3$. We prove that hyperbolic links $C_Γ$ are parametrized by nonselfcrossing Eulerian cycles, Eulerian theta-subgraphs and Eulerian $K_4$-subgraphs in hyperbolic right-angled $3$-polytopes of finite volume in $\mathbb L^3$ with $0$, $2$ or $4$ finite vertices. The complement $S^3\setminus C_Γ$ is glued of $4$, $8$ or $16$ copies of the corresponding right-angled polytope. We give a criterion when the link $C_Γ$ consists of mutually unlinked circles and prove that if such a link is nontrivial, then it contains the Borromean rings. The latter problem is motivated by the Efimov effect in quantum mechanics.

More Versions of Real Link Floer Homology

In this paper, we further develop the real link Floer homology defined by the first author. We introduce a new base-pointing convention that leads to a different version of real link Floer homology and show that this new theory is related to the old one by an exact triangle. We also define a real link Floer theory for multi-based strongly invertible links, which is a strong real Heegaard invariant, and take a first step toward a real link Floer TQFT. A computer implementation for the new theory via grid diagrams was written by Zhenkun Li. We also include an appendix containing real grid homology of more than 50 small knots.

Knots and the Sierpinski Tetrahedron

In this paper we prove that there are infinitely many knots that cannot be embedded in the 1-skeletons of the finite iterations of the Sierpinski tetrahedron fractal. We do this by proving that such an embedding induces a sphere decomposition of weight at most 6. There are infinitely many knots with spherewidth greater than this.
