On the vanishing of the Rohlin invariant
[ 講演概要 ]
The vanishing of the Rohlin invariant of an amphichiral integral
homology $3$-sphere $M$ (i.e. $M \\cong -M$) is a natural consequence
of some elementary properties of the Casson invariant. In this talk, we
give a new direct (and more elementary) proof of this vanishing
property. The main idea comes from the definition of the degree 1
part of the Kontsevich-Kuperberg-Thurston invariant, and we progress
by constructing some $7$-dimensional manifolds in which $M$ is embedded.

Realization of twisted $K$-theory and
finite-dimensional approximation of Fredholm operators
[ 講演概要 ]
A problem in twisted $K$-theory is to realize twisted $K$-groups generally by means of finite-dimensional geometric objects, like vector bundles. I would like to talk about an approach toward the problem by means of Mikio Furuta's generalized vector bundles. By using a twisted version of the generalized vector bundle and a finite-dimensional approximation of Fredholm operators, I construct a group into which there exists a natural injection from the twisted $K$-group twisted by any third integral cohomology class.

Existence Problem of Compact Locally Symmetric Spaces
[ 講演概要 ]
The local to global study of geometries was a major trend of 20th century geometry, with remarkable developments achieved particularly in Riemannian geometry. In contrast, in areas such as Lorentz geometry, familiar to us as the space-time of relativity theory, and more generally in pseudo-Riemannian geometry, as well as in various other kinds of geometry (symplectic, complex geometry, ...), surprising little is known about global properties of the geometry even if we impose a locally homogeneous structure.

In this talk, I will give a survey on the recent developments on the question about how the local geometric structure affects the global nature of non-Riemannian manifolds with emphasis on the existence problem of compact models of locally symmetric spaces.

Elliptic genera and some finite groups
[ 講演概要 ]
Recent developments in the representation theory of sporadic groups
suggest new formulations of `moonshine' in which Jacobi forms take on the
role played by modular forms in the monstrous case. On the other hand,
Jacobi forms arise naturally in the study of elliptic genera. We review
the use of vertex algebra as a tool for constructing the elliptic genus of
a suitable vector bundle, and illustrate connections between this and
vertex algebraic representations of certain sporadic simple groups.

The twistor correspondence for self-dual Zollfrei metrics
----their singularities and reduction

[ 講演概要 ]
C. LeBrun and L. J. Mason investigated a twistor-type correspondence
between indefinite conformal structures of signature (2,2) with some properties
and totally real embeddings from RP^3 to CP^3.
In this talk, two themes following LeBrun and Mason are explained.

First we consider an additional structure:
the conformal structure is equipped with a null surface foliation
which has some singularity.
We establish a global twistor correspondence for such structures,
and we show that a low dimensional correspondence
between some quotient spaces is induced from this twistor correspondence.

Next we formulate a certain singularity for the conformal structures.
We generalize the formulation of LeBrun and Mason's theorem
admitting the singularity, and we show explicit examples.

On the homology group of $Out(F_n)$
[ 講演概要 ]
Suppose $F_n$ is the free group of rank $n$,
$Out(F_n) = Aut(F_n)/Inn(F_n)$ the outer automorphism group of $F_n$.
We compute $H_*(Out(F_n);\\mathbb{Q})$ for $n\\leq 6$ and conclude
that non-trivial classes in this range are generated
by Morita classes $\\mu_i \\in H_{4i}(Out(F_{2i+2});\\mathbb{Q})$.
Also we compute odd primary part of $H^*(Out(F_4);\\mathbb{Z})$.

An $SO(3)$-version of $2$-torsion instanton invariants
[ 講演概要 ]
We construct invariants for simply connected, non-spin $4$-manifolds using torsion cohomology classes of moduli spaces of ASD connections on $SO(3)$-bundles. The invariants are $SO(3)$-version of Fintushel-Stern's $2$-torsion instanton invariants. We show that this $SO(3)$-torsion invariant of $2CP^2 \\# -CP^2$ is non-trivial, while it is known that any invariants of $2CP^2 \\# - CP^2$ coming from the Seiberg-Witten theory are trivial
since $2CP^2 \\# -CP^2$ has a positive scalar curvature metric.
山口 祥司 氏 (東京大学大学院数理科学研究科) 17:30-18:30
On the non-acyclic Reidemeister torsion for knots
[ 講演概要 ]
The Reidemeister torsion is an invariant of a CW-complex and a representation of its fundamental group. We consider the Reidemeister torsion for a knot exterior in a homology three sphere and a representation given by the composition of an SL(2, C)- (or SU(2)-) representation of the knot group and the adjoint action to the Lie algebra.
We will see that this invariant is expressed by the differential coefficient of the twisted Alexander invariant of the knot and investigate some properties of the invariant by using this relation.

Poisson structures on the homology of the spaces of knots
[ 講演概要 ]
We study the homological properties of the space $K$ of (framed) long knots in $\\R^n$, $n>3$, in particular its Poisson algebra structures.
We had known two kinds of Poisson structures, both of which are based on the action of little disks operad. One definition is via the action on the space $K$. Another comes from the action of chains of little disks on the Hochschild complex of an operad, which appears as $E^1$-term of certain spectral sequence converging to $H_* (K)$. The main result is that these two Poisson structures are the same.
We compute the first non-trivial example of the Poisson bracket. We show that this gives a first example of the homology class of $K$ which does not directly correspond to any chord diagrams.

On projections of pseudo-ribbon sphere-links
[ 講演概要 ]
Suppose $F$ is an embedded closed surface in $R^4$.
We call $F$ a pseudo-ribbon surface link
if its projection is an immersion of $F$ into $R^3$
whose self-intersection set $\\Gamma(F)$ consists of disjointly embedded circles.
H. Aiso classified pseudo-ribbon sphere-knots ($F$ is a sphere.)
when $\\Gamma(F)$ consists of less than 6 circles.
We classify pseudo-ribbon sphere-links
when $F$ is two spheres and $\\Gamma(F)$ consists of less than 7 circles.

Thom polynomials for maps of curves with isolated singularities
(joint with S. Lando)
[ 講演概要 ]
Thom (residual) polynomials in characteristic classes are used in
the analysis of geometry of functional spaces. They serve as a
tool in description of classes Poincar\\'e dual to subvarieties of
functions of prescribed types. We give explicit universal
expressions for residual polynomials in spaces of functions on
complex curves having isolated singularities and
multisingularities, in terms of few characteristic classes. These
expressions lead to a partial explicit description of a
stratification of Hurwitz spaces.

The Yamabe constants of infinite coverings and a positive mass theorem
[ 講演概要 ]
The {\\it Yamabe constant} $Y(M, C)$ of a given closed conformal manifold
$(M, C)$ is defined by the infimum of
the normalized total-scalar-curavarure functional $E$
among all metrics in $C$.
The study of the second variation of this functional $E$ led O.Kobayashi and Schoen
to independently introduce a natural differential-topological invariant $Y(M)$,
which is obtained by taking the supremum of $Y(M, C)$ over the space of all conformal classes.
This invariant $Y(M)$ is called the {\\it Yamabe invariant} of $M$.
For the study of the Yamabe invariant,
the relationship between $Y(M, C)$ and those of its conformal coverings
is important, the case when $Y(M, C)> 0$ particularly.
When $Y(M, C) \\leq 0$, by the uniqueness of unit-volume constant scalar curvature metrics in $C$,
the desired relation is clear.
When $Y(M, C) > 0$, such a uniqueness does not hold.
However, Aubin proved that $Y(M, C)$ is strictly less than
the Yamabe constant of any of its non-trivial {\\it finite} conformal coverings,
called {\\it Aubin's Lemma}.
In this talk, we generalize this lemma to the one for the Yamabe constant of
any $(M_{\\infty}, C_{\\infty})$ of its {\\it infinite} conformal coverings,
under a certain topological condition on the relation between $\\pi_1(M)$ and $\\pi_1(M_{\\infty})$.
For the proof of this, we aslo establish a version of positive mass theorem
for a specific class of asymptotically flat manifolds with singularities.

High-codimensional knots spun about manifolds
[ 講演概要 ]
The spinning describes several methods of constructing higher-dimensional knots from lower-dimensional knots.
The original spinning (Emil Artin, 1925) has been generalized in various ways. Using one of the most generalized forms of spinning, called "deform-spinning about a submanifold" (Dennis Roseman, 1989), we analyze in a geometric way Haefliger's smoothly knotted (4k-1)-spheres in the 6k-sphere.

Unsmoothable group actions on elliptic surfaces
[ 講演概要 ]
Let G be a cyclic group of order 3,5 or 7.
We prove the existence of locally linear G-actions on elliptic surfaces which can not be realized by smooth actions with respect to specific smooth structures.
To prove this, we give constraints on smooth actions by using gauge theory.
In fact, we use a mod p vanishing theorem on Seiberg-Witten invariants, which was originally proved by F.Fang.
We give a geometric alternative proof of this, which enables us to extend the theorem.

A review of crossed G-structures
[ 講演概要 ]
We present the definition of "crossed structures" as introduced by Turaev and others a few years ago. One of the original motivations in the introduction of these structures and of the related notion of a "Homotopy Quantum Field Theory" (HQFT) was the extension of Reshetikhin-Turaev invariants to the case of flat principal bundles on 3-manifolds. We resume both this aspect of the theory and other applications in both algebra and topology and we present our results on the algebraic structures involved.

Networking Seifert Fibered Surgeries on Knots (joint work with Katura Miyazaki and Kimihiko Motegi)
[ 講演概要 ]
We define a Seifert Surgery Network which consists of integral Dehn surgeries on knots yielding Seifert fiber spaces;here we allow Seifert fiber space with a fiber of index zero as degenerate cases. Then we establish some fundamental properties of the network. Using the notion of the network, we will clarify relationships among known Seifert surgeries. In particular, we demonstrate that many Seifert surgeries are closely connected to those on torus knots in Seifert Surgery Network. Our study suggests that the network enables us to make a global picture of Seifert surgeries.

Estimating Lusternik-Schnirelmann Category for Foliations:A Survey of Available Techniques
[ 講演概要 ]
The Lusternik-Schnirelmann category of a space $X$ is the smallest number $r$ such that $X$ can be covered by $r + 1$ open sets which are contractible in $X$.For foliated manifolds there are several notions generalizing this concept, all of them due
to Helen Colman. We are mostly concerned with the concept of tangential Lusternik-Schnirelmann category (tangential LS-category). Here one requires a covering by open sets $U$ with the following property. There is a leafwise homotopy starting with the inclusion of $U$ and ending in a map that throws for each leaf $F$ of the foliation each component of $U \\cap F$ onto a single point. A leafwise homotopy is a homotopy moving points only inside leaves. Rather than presenting the still very few results obtained about the LS category of foliations, we survey techniques, mostly quite elementary, to estimate the tangential LS-category from below and above.

Invariant foliations in hyperbolic dynamics:
Smoothness and smooth equivalence
[ 講演概要 ]
The stable and unstable leaves of a hyperbolic dynamical system are smooth and form a continuous foliation. Smoothness of this foliation sometimes constrains the topological type of the foliation, other times restricts at least the smooth equivalence class of the dynamical system, or for geodesic flows, the type of the underlying manifold. I will present a broad introduction as well as recent work, work in progress, and open problems.

全葉層の存在について(浅岡正幸,Emmanuel Dufraineとの共同研究)
[ 講演概要 ]
n次元多様体上のn個の余次元1葉層構造の組で、n個の葉層構造の接空間の共通部分が各点で0になるものを全葉層と呼ぶ。3次元の場合においては任意の有向閉多様体上に全葉層が存在することが Hardorpによって示されていた。3次元多様体上の全葉層をなす各々の葉層構造の接平面場は互いにホモトピックでありオイラー類が0になることが容易に分かるが、逆にオイラー類が0の平面場を与えたときそれを実現する全葉層が存在するかという問題が自然に生じる。
本講演ではこの問題に肯定的な解決をあたえる。
また、この結果の応用として双接触構造、すなわち横断的に交わる正と負の接触構造の組の存在問題にも触れたい。

Lorentzian foliations on 3-manifolds
[ 講演概要 ]
a joint work with C. Boubel (Ecole Nomale Superieure of Lyon) and P. Mounoud (University of Bordeaux 1 sciences and technologies)

The aim of this work is to give a classification of transversely Lorentzian one dimensional foliations on compact manifolds of dimension three. There are the foliations which admit a transverse pseudo-Riemanniann metric of index one. It is the Lorentzian analogue of the better known Riemannian foliations and they still have rigid transverse geometry.

The Riemannian case was listed by Y. Carriere and we will see that the Lorentzian one is very different and much more complicated to classify. The difference comes form the fact that the completness of the transverse structure, which is automatic in the Riemannian case, is a very strong hypothesis for a transverse Lorentzian foliation.

We will give a classification of complete Lorentzian foliations and some examples which are not complete. As a natural corollary of this classification we will list the codimension one timelike geodesically complete totally geodesic foliations of Lorentzian compact three manifolds.

Thurston's inequality for a foliation with Reeb components
[ 講演概要 ]
The Euler class of a Reebless foliation or a tight contact structure on a closed 3-manifold satisfies Thurston's inequality, i.e. its (dual) Thurston norm is less than or equal to 1. It should be significant to study Thurston's inequality in both of foliation theory and contact topology. We investigate conditions for a spinnable foliation one of which assures that Thurston's inequality holds and also another of which implies the violation of the inequality.

On crossed homomorphisms on symplectic mapping class groups
[ 講演概要 ]
We consider a symplectic manifold M. For a relation between Chern classes of M and the cohomology class of the symplectic form, we construct a crossed homomorphism on the symplectomorphism group of M with values in the cohomology group of M. We show an application of it to the flux homomorphism. Then we see that it induces a one on the symplectic mapping class group of M and show a nontrivial example of it.

Counting closed orbits and flow lines via Heegaard splittings
[ 講演概要 ]
Let K be a fibred knot in the 3-sphere. It is known that the Alexander polynomial of K is essentially equal to a Lefschetz zeta function obtained from the monodromy map of the fibre structure. In this talk, we discuss the non-fibred knot case. We introduce "monodromy matrix" by making use of Heegaard splitting for sutured manifolds of a knot K, and then observe a method of counting closed orbits and flow lines, which gives the Alexander polynomial of K. This observation is based on works of Donaldson and Mark. (joint work with Hiroshi Matsuda and Andrei Pajitnov)
