We show that the equivariant chain complex associated to a minimal CW-structure X on the complement M(A) of a hyperplane arrangement A, is independent of X. When A is a sufficiently general linear section of an aspheric arrangement, we…

In this paper we define the notion of pullback lifting of a lifting crossed module over a crossed module morphism and interpret this notion in the category of group-groupoid actions as pullback action. Moreover, we give a criterion for the…

We consider the possible Euler characteristics and fundamental groups of the complementary components $X$ and $Y$ of an embedding of a connected closed 3-manifold $M$ in $S^4$. We use a 2-knot satellite construction to change the…

In this paper we determine the topology of the moduli space $\mathcal{MS}_{1,1}(\vartheta)$ of surfaces of genus one with a Riemannian metric of constant curvature $1$ and one conical point of angle $2\pi\vartheta$. In particular, for…

We consider irreducible 3-manifolds M that arise as knot complements in closed 3-manifolds and that contain at most two connected strict essential surfaces. The results in the paper relate the boundary slopes of the two surfaces to their…

This paper studies one-dimensional non-Hausdorff manifolds that are similar to "graphs with split vertices". It is shown that if $M$ is a connected one-dimensional non-Hausdorff manifold such that the set of its "non-Hausdorff" points is…

Let $ R=k[x_1...x_r]$ and $M$ a multigraded $R-$module. In this work we interpret $M$ as a multipersistent homology module and give a multigraded resolution of it. The construction involves cellular resolutions of monomial ideals and…

We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for determining when a flat manifold can occur as a cusp cross-section within a given commensurability class of cusped arithmetic hyperbolic manifolds. This reduces the problem of identifying…

Let X be a separated finite type scheme over a noetherian base ring K. There is a complex C(X) of topological O_X-modules on X, called the complete Hochschild chain complex of X. To any O_X-module M - not necessarily quasi-coherent - we…

In this paper we will define notion homotopy of morphisms of crossed modules of Lie algebras. Then we construct a groupoid structure of Lie crossed module morphisms and their homotopies.

One of the primary methods of studying the topology of configurations of points in a graph and configurations of disks in a planar region has been to examine discrete combinatorial models arising from the underlying spaces. Despite the…

Let $M$ be a simply connected closed manifold of dimension $n$. We study the rational homotopy type of the configuration space of 2 points in $M$, $F(M,2)$. When $M$ is even dimensional, we prove that the rational homotopy type of $F(M,2)$…

Let $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb C^m$ be a bounded connected open set and $\mathcal H \subseteq \mathcal O(\Omega)$ be an analytic Hilbert module, i.e., the Hilbert space $\mathcal H$ possesses a reproducing kernel $K$, the polynomial ring…

The matching complex $\mathsf{M}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is a simplicial complex whose simplices are matchings in $G$. These complexes appear in various places and found applications in many areas of mathematics including computational geometry,…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring. An $R$-module $M$ is called a semi-regular $w$-flat module if $\Tor_1^R(R/I,M)$ is $\GV$-torsion for any finitely generated semi-regular ideal $I$. In this article, we show that the class of semi-regular…

We provide a homological model for a family of quantum representations of mapping class groups arising from non-semisimple TQFTs (Topological Quantum Field Theories). Our approach gives a new geometric point of view on these…

Given a connected 2-complex X with fundamental group G, we show how pi_3(X) may be computed as a module over Z[G]. Further we show that if X is a finite connected 2-complex with G (the fundamental group) finite of odd order, then the stable…

It was conjectured by Goyal, Shukla and Singh that the independence complex of the categorical product $K_2\times K_3\times K_n$ has the homotopy type of a wedge of $(n-1)(3n-2)$ spheres of dimension $3$. Here we prove this conjecture by…

This article is concerned with locally flatly immersed surfaces in simply-connected $4$-manifolds where the complement of the surface has fundamental group $\mathbb{Z}$. Once the genus and number of double points are fixed, we classify such…

Over the complex numbers, the complement of a collection of hyperplanes is a widely-studied object; the cohomology ring, in particular, is known to have a structure depending only on the combinatorial properties of the intersection of…
