Lectures on the Page space
In this seminar series we will be introducing the Page metric.
Also introduce an efficient coordinate system on it. Then analyse some
submanifolds which make these coordinates partially constant.

Hyunjoo:
We prove that any seven-dimensional manifold with G2-structures admits almost contact structures on it. In this talk, I give a brief introduction on G2-structures and (almost) contact structures, and consider the relationships between contact structures and G2-structures on it.
Kalafat:
Başlık: Einstein-Hermitian yüzeylerin eğriliği
Hülasa: C.Koca ile ortak olan bu çalışmada, Page uzayının matematiksel
açıklamasını yapı onun üzerinde etkili bir koordinat sistemi kuracağız.
Bu sitem vasıtasiyle uzayın bazı sabit eğrilikli ve total geodezik
altyüzeylerini bulacağız. Bu kısımlar ise R. Sarı ile ortak çalışmadır.
Vakit elverdiği ölçüde ise pozitif holomorfik bikesitsel eğriliğin
olmadığı durumları görmek ve Einstein-Hermityen bir manifold pozitif dik
bikesitsel eğriliği haiz ise karmaşık projektif uzayın Fubini-Study metriğinden başka
olamayacağını görmeye çalışacağız. Bu sonuç
Berger'in bir teoremindeki Kähler şartını relaks eder.
Hanke:
Curvature is a basic notion in differential geometry, because it
measures the deviation from flat, Euclidean space. This talk deals with
scalar curvature, which can be defined by the volume growth of small
balls in Riemannian manifolds. We give an overview of some old and new
results concerning Riemannian metrics with everywhere positive scalar
curvature, combining techniques from global analysis, topology, and
general relativity. Previous Talk on Monday:
Equivariant bordism of elementary abelian groups:
Time: October 5, 2015 Monday 13:40-14:30
Place: Math Department Seminar Room
Abstract: The computation of bordism groups of manifolds equipped with group actions is a classical
topic in geometric topology. We recall the basic definitions and present some new computations
for elementary abelian groups.
Benli:
The growth function of a finitely generated group measures how fast the
balls in its Cayley graphs grow. This asymptotic invariant attracted a lot
of attention starting from M. Gromov's celebrated theorem about groups
which grow polynomially. This talk will be a survey of history, open
problems and recent developments around this notion. The main focus will
be on groups whose growth is intermediate between polynomial and
exponential constructed by R. Grigorchuk.
Eyüp:
Spectral sequences are the powerful tool to solve (co)homology of space.
In this lecture we will introduce the spectral sequences and give an example. Exact couples.
Ünal:
Calibrated geometries, introduced by Harvey and Lawson in 1982, are the
geometries of calibrated submanifolds, a distinguished type of minimal
submanifolds determined by a fixed, closed differential form $\phi$ called
a calibration on a Riemannian manifold $M$. A K\"ahler form
$\omega$ in complex geometry provides the first rich example of a
calibration and calibrated geometries can be viewed as the generalization
of K\"ahler manifolds as they have many similar properties. Recently, the
introduction of plurisubharmonic functions on calibrated manifolds, which
provides us doing analysis on them very similar to the one on complex
manifolds, has made another type of submanifolds very important. These
submanifolds are called as $\phi$-free and are the generalization
of totally real submanifolds of complex manifolds.
In this talk, I will start with an introduction to calibrated manifolds,
and give the most well-known examples coming from special holonomy. Then,
I will talk about the geometry and topology of $\phi$-free submanifolds.
Tekin :
I will give an introduction to the the basics of gauge theories in physics such as the Maxwell's theory,
Yang-Mills theory, Seiberg-Witten and Gravity.
Ünal 2:
Plurisubharmonic functions in calibrated geometries are introduced by Harvey and Lawson almost 30 years after their foundational paper on calibrated manifolds. These functions generalize the classical plurisubharmonic functions from complex geometry and
enjoy their important properties. Moreover, quite a few results proved in complex geometry via plurisubharmonic functions can be extended to calibrated manifolds. One important example of these results is a notion of pseudo-convexity defined in the context of
calibrated manifolds, similar to the one in complex analysis.
In this talk, after a quick introduction to calibrated manifolds, I will try to explain these new concepts and results as well as showing similarities between complex and calibrated geometries. In addition to these, I will talk about geometric constructions, known as -free
submanifolds, to give examples of strongly pseudo-convex domains in calibrated manifolds.
Kalafat :
In this talk, we give a survey of various results about the topology of
oriented Grassmannian bundles related to the exceptional Lie group G_2. Some of
these results are new. One often encounters these spaces when studying submanifolds
of manifolds with calibrated geometries. As an application we deduce existence of
certain special 3 and 4 dimensional submanifolds of G_2 holonomy Riemannian manifolds
with special properties. These are called Harvey-Lawson(HL) pairs. Which appeared first
in the work of Akbulut & Salur about G_2 dualities. Another application is to the
coassociative-free embeddings. We show that if there is a coassociative-free embedding
of a 4-manifold into the Euclidean 7-space then the signature vanishes along with the Euler
characteristic. The converse of this theorem is proved in the more general sense by İ.Ünal
using h-principle techniques. We will talk about this direction if time permits. Joint work
with S.Akbulut and İ.Ünal.
Sun: Maryam Mirzakhani reproved Witten's conjecture
(Kontsevich's theorem) via her topological recursion by integrating over her version
of McShane's identity relevant to Weil-Petersson form on DM moduli space and its compactification.
In this talk, I will represent Mirzakhani's work and also Francois Labourie's work
on higher Teichmüller theory, which leads to conjecturally the existence of higher
moduli space, its compactification and higher generalized Witten's conjecture.

Borówka : Lie algeborids are becoming a modern way to describe some geometrical objects. In this talk I will discuss their basic properties.
Vesnin : Right-angled polyhedra in hyperbolic spaces are serving as useful building blocks for constructing hyperbolic manifolds and orbifolds with interesting properties. We will look at dimension three, where we describe existence conditions and the volume set structure. Then we will present a way to construct closed hyperbolic 3-manifolds related to color-epimorphisms of right-angled Coxeter groups and find 2-fold branched coverings of the 3-sphere. As a particular case, we will discuss the first example of a closed orientable hyperbolic 3-manifold constructed by F. Loebell in 1931.
