A stable splitting of factorisation homology of generalised surfaces

Abstract

For a manifold WW and an EdE_d-algebra AA, the factorisation homology WA\int_W A can be seen as a generalisation of the classical configuration space of labelled particles in WW. It carries an action by the diffeomorphism group Diff(W)\mathrm{Diff}_\partial(W), and for the generalised surfaces Wg,1:=(#gSn×Sn)D˚2nW_{g,1}:=(\#^g S^n\times S^n)\setminus\mathring D{}^{2n}, we have stabilisation maps among the quotients Wg,1A/ ⁣/Diff(Wg,1)\int_{W_{g,1}} A\,/\!/\,\mathrm{Diff}_\partial(W_{g,1}) which increase the genus gg. In the case where a highly-connected tangential structure θ\theta is taken into account, we describe its stable homology in terms of the iterated bar construction B2nA\mathrm{B}^{2n}A and a tangential Thom spectrum MTθ\mathrm{MT}\theta. We also consider the question of homological stability.
