We give a short introduction to the theory of twisted Alexander polynomials of a 3-manifold associated to a representation of its fundamental group. We summarize their formal …
We study a twisted Alexander polynomial naturally associated to a hyperbolic knot in an integer homology 3-sphere via a lift of the holonomy representation to. It is an unambiguous …

Given a virtual knot K, we introduce a new group-valued invariant VGK called the virtual knot group, and we use the elementary ideals of VGK to define invariants of K called the virtual …

We show that given any 3-manifold N and any non-fibered class in H1 (N; Z) there exists a representation such that the corresponding twisted Alexander polynomial is zero. We obtain …

We present some examples of locally conformal symplectic structures of the first kind on compact nilmanifolds which do not admit Vaisman metrics. One of these examples does not …
Given a prime $ p $, a group is called residually $ p $ if the intersection of its $ p $-power index normal subgroups is trivial. A group is called virtually residually $ p $ if it has a finite …

In this paper we show that the twisted Alexander polynomial associated to a parabolic representation determines fiberedness and genus of a wide class of 2-bridge knots. As a …
