This is the second of a series of Compte Rendus. In the first [1] we have presented a theory of Dyer-Lashof operations in unoriented bordism. Here we shall discuss the (Nishida) relations between Dyer-Lashof and Landweber-Novikov…

We present a theory of Dyer-Lashof operations in unoriented bordism (the canonical splitting $N_*(X)\simeq N_*\otimes H_*(X)$, where $N_*( )$ is unoriented bordism and $H_*( )$ is homology mod 2, does not respect these operations). For any…

Given a real $n \times m$ matrix $B$, its operator norm can be defined as $$|B|=\max_{|v|=1}|Bv|.$$ We consider a matrix "small" if it has non-negative integer entries and its operator norm is less than $2$. These matrices correspond to…

Symbolic dynamics is partly the study of walks in a directed graph. By a walk, here we mean a morphism to the graph from the Cayley graph of the monoid of non-negative integers. Sets of these walks are also important in other areas, such as…

In this paper, we investigate the Quillen model structure defined by Bisson and Tsemo in the category of directed graphs Gph. In particular, we give a precise description of the homotopy category of graphs associated to this model…

The purpose of this paper is to develop a homotopical algebra for graphs, relevant to zeta series and spectra of finite graphs. More precisely, we define a Quillen model structure in a category of graphs (directed and possibly infinite,…
