We study homotopy theory of the category of spectral sequences with respect to the class of weak equivalences given by maps which are quasi-isomorphisms on a fixed page. We introduce the category of extended spectral sequences and show that…
We give a simple geometric characterization of isospectral orbifolds covered by spheres, complex projective spaces and the quaternion projective line having cyclic fundamental group. The differential operators considered are…
We calculate the cohomology of the extended Morava stabilizer group of height $n$, with trivial mod $p$ coefficients, for all heights $n$ and all primes $p>>n$. The result is an exterior algebra on $n$ generators. A brief sketch of the…
Given a finite group action on a (suitably enhanced) triangulated category linear over a field, we establish a formula for the Hochschild cohomology of the category of invariants, assuming the order of the group is coprime to the…
This article improves certain results of Dino Lorenzini concerning the groups of connected components of special fibres of N\'eron models of abelian varieties. Lorenzini has shown the existence of a four step filtration on the prime-to-$p$…
Cheeger-Simons differential characters, Deligne cohomology in the smooth category, the Hopkins-Singer construction of ordinary differential cohomology and the recent Harvey-Lawson constructions are each in two distinct ways Abelian group…
For a motivic spectrum $E\in \mathcal{SH}(k)$, let $\Gamma(E)$ denote the global sections spectrum, where $E$ is viewed as a sheaf of spectra on $\mathrm{Sm}_k$. Voevodsky's slice filtration determines a spectral sequence converging to the…
Given an elliptic fibration $\pi : M \to S^2$ with singular locus $\Delta \subseteq S^2$, let $\operatorname{Br}(\pi) < \operatorname{Mod}(S^2,\Delta)$ be the subgroup of the spherical braid group consisting of those braids that lift to a…
Methods are developed to relate the action of a principal fibration to relative Whitehead products in order to determine the homotopy type of certain spaces. The methods are applied to thoroughly analyze the homotopy type of the based loops…
Nadler introduced certain Lagrangian singularities indexed by trees, and determined their microlocal sheaves to be the category of modules over the corresponding tree quiver. Another family of spaces indexed by trees: the tree plumbings of…
We consider the 6d (2,0) theory on a fibration by genus g curves, and dimensionally reduce along the fiber to 4d theories with duality defects. This generalizes class S theories, for which the fibration is trivial. The non-trivial fibration…
The paper continues the discussion of symplectic aspects of Picard-Lefschetz theory begun in "Vanishing cycles and mutation" (this archive). There we explained how to associate to a suitable fibration over a two-dimensional disc a…
We show that the hypercohomology of the Chevalley-Eilenberg-de Rham complex of a Lie algebroid L over a scheme with coefficients in an L-module can be expressed as a derived functor. We use this fact to study a Hochschild-Serre type…
We prove standard results of group cohomology -- namely, existence of a long exact sequence, classification of torsors via the first cohomology group, Shapiro's lemma, the Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence, a decomposition of the cochain…
In the 2000s, Sadofsky constructed a spectral sequence which converges to the mod $p$ homology groups of a homotopy limit of a sequence of spectra. The input for this spectral sequence is the derived functors of sequential limit in the…
For each pair of simplicial sets $A$ and $B$, the category $\mathbf{Cyl}(A,B)$ of cylinders (also called correspondences) from $A$ to $B$ admits a model structure induced from Joyal's model structure for quasi-categories. In this paper, we…
We employ the perverse vanishing cycles to show that each reduced cohomology group of the Milnor fiber, except the top two, can be computed from the restriction of the vanishing cycle complex to only singular strata with a certain lower…
In the preceding note math.DG/0610917 the $\Lambda_{k-1}\mathcal{C}$--spectral sequence, whose first term is composed of \emph{secondary iterated differential forms}, was constructed for a generic diffiety. In this note the zero and first…
For a smooth complex projective variety X defined over a number field, we have filtrations on the Chow groups depending of the choice of realizations. If the realization consists of mixed Hodge structure without any additional structure, we…
A general explicit upper bound is obtained for the proportion $P(n,m)$ of elements of order dividing $m$, where $n-1 \le m \le cn$ for some constant $c$, in the finite symmetric group $S_n$. This is used to find lower bounds for the…
