We discuss the question of geometric formality for rationally elliptic manifolds of dimension $6$ and $7$. We prove that a geometrically formal six-dimensional biquotient with $b_{2}=3$ has the real cohomology of a symmetric space. We also…

Let TC$_n$(X) denote the n-th topological complexity of a topological space X. It is known that TC$_n$(X) does not exceed n-1 for non-contractible X, and so it makes sense to describe spaces X with TC$_n$(X) =n-1. Grant--Lupton--Oprea…

We prove that the moduli space A_3(1,1,4) of polarized abelian threefolds with polarization of type (1,1,4) is unirational. By a result of Birkenhake and Lange this implies the unirationality of the isomorphic moduli space A_3(1,4,4). The…

We show that if there exists a topologically expansive homeomorphism on a uniform space, then the space is always a regular space. Through examples we show that in general composition of topologically expansive homeomorphisms need not be…

The purpose of this paper is to generalise Sullivan's rational homotopy theory to non-nilpotent spaces, providing an alternative approach to defining Toen's schematic homotopy types over any field k of characteristic zero. New features…

Let a compact torus $T=T^{n-1}$ act on an orientable smooth compact manifold $X=X^{2n}$ effectively, with nonempty finite set of fixed points, and suppose that stabilizers of all points are connected. If $H^{odd}(X)=0$ and the weights of…

We produce a fully faithful functor from finite type nilpotent spaces to cosimplicial binomial rings, thus giving an algebraic model of integral homotopy types. As an application, we construct an integral version of the…

Under certain conditions, we describe the homotopy type of the homo-topy fibre of the inclusion map F\_n(X) $\rightarrow$ $\prod$\_1^n X for the n-th configuration space F\_n(X) of a topological manifold X without boundary such that dim(X)…

A Hausdorff topological space $X$ is called $\textit{superconnected}$ (resp. $\textit{coregular}$) if for any nonempty open sets $U_1,\dots U_n\subseteq X$, the intersection of their closures $\bar U_1\cap\dots\cap\bar U_n$ is not empty…

Continuous mappings between compact Hausdorff spaces can be studied using homomorphisms between algebraic structures (lattices, Boolean algebras) associated with the spaces. This gives us more tools with which to tackle problems about these…

Let $\mathcal K$ be a complete quasivariety of completely regular universal topological algebras of continuous signature $\mathcal E$ (which means that $\mathcal K$ is closed under taking subalgebras, Cartesian products, and includes all…

We give a survey on recent results on inequalities between the ranks of homotopy and cohomology groups (resp., graded components of mixed Hodge structures on these groups) of rationally elliptic spaces (resp., quasi-projective varieties…

We obtain explicit formulas for the rational homotopy groups of generalised symmetric spaces, i.e., the homogeneous spaces for which the isotropy subgroup appears as the fixed point group of some finite order automorphism of the group. In…

Let $H$ be an infinite-dimensional complex Hilbert space and let ${\mathcal G}_{\infty}(H)$ be the set of all closed subspaces of $H$ whose dimension and codimension both are infinite. We investigate (not necessarily surjective)…

A Theorem of Wang in [Wa] implies that any holomorphic parallelism on a compact complex manifold M is flat with respect to some complex Lie algebra structure whose dimension coincides with that of M. We study here rational parallelisms on…

Following Grothendieck's characterization of Hilbert spaces we consider operator spaces $F$ such that both $F$ and $F^*$ completely embed into the dual of a C*-algebra. Due to Haagerup/Musat's improved version of Pisier/Shlyakhtenko's…

We prove that the pointwise product of two holomorphic functions of the upper half-plane, one in the Hardy space $\mathcal H^1$, the other one in its dual, belongs to a Hardy type space. Conversely, every holomorphic function in this space…

We prove that for a fibration of simply-connected spaces of finite type $F\hookrightarrow E\to B$ with $F$ being positively elliptic and $H^*(F,\qq)$ not possessing non-trivial derivations of negative degree, the base $B$ is formal if and…

If F is a collection of topological spaces, then a homotopy class \alpha in [X,Y] is called F-trivial if \alpha_* = 0: [A,X] --> [A,Y] for all A in F. In this paper we study the collection Z_F(X,Y) of all F-trivial homotopy classes in [X,Y]…

Let $R$ be a Gorenstein local ring with maximal ideal $\mathfrak{m}$ satisfying $\mathfrak{m}^3=0\ne\mathfrak{m}^2$. Set $k=R/\mathfrak{m}$ and $e=\text{rank}_{k}(\mathfrak{m}/\mathfrak{m}^2)$. If $e>2$ and $M$, $N$ are finitely generated…
