In this paper we introduce and develop the theory of FI-modules. We apply this theory to obtain new theorems about: - the cohomology of the configuration space of n distinct ordered points on an arbitrary (connected, oriented) manifold -…

We compute the waves propagating on a compact 3-manifold of constant positive curvature with a non trivial topology: the Poincar\'e dodecahedral space that is a plausible model of multi-connected universe. We transform the Cauchy problem to…

We calculate the rational cohomology of the classifying space of the diffeomorphism group of the manifolds $U_{g,1}^n:= \#^g(S^n \times S^{n+1})\setminus \mathrm{int}{D^{2n+1}}$, for large $g$ and $n$, up to approximately degree $n$. The…

We present some methods for constructing connected spatial geometric configurations $(p_{q}, n_{k})$ of points and lines, preserved by the same rotations (and reflections) of Euclidean space $E^{3}$ as the chosen Platonic solid. In this…

The spaces of flattenings of a simplicial sphere played a key role in the study of existence and uniqueness of differentiable structures on a simplicial sphere. In this paper, we will establish that the spaces of flattenings of some…

Obtaining constraints from the largest scales of a galaxy survey is challenging due to the survey mask allowing only partial measurement of large angular modes. This scatters information from the harmonic-space 2-point function away from…

Using $\mathbb{Z}_3$ symmetry, we present a topological condition for the existence of the $\mathbb{Z}_2$ harmonic 1-forms over Riemannian manifold. As a corollary, if $L$ is an oriented link on $S^3$ with determinant zero, then there…

For a compact contact manifold it is shown that the anisotropic Folland-Stein function spaces form an algebra. The notion of anisotropic regularity is extended to define the space of Folland-Stein contact diffeomorphisms, which is shown to…

Based on Morse theory for the energy functional on path spaces we develop a deformation theory for mapping spaces of spheres into orthogonal groups. This is used to show that these mapping spaces are weakly homotopy equivalent, in a stable…

Given a closed $n$-manifold, we consider the set of simple homotopy types of $n$-manifolds within its homotopy type, called its simple homotopy manifold set. We characterise it in terms of algebraic K-theory, the surgery obstruction map,…

Associated to every complete affine 3-manifold M with nonsolvable fundamental group is a noncompact hyperbolic surface S. We classify such complete affine structures when Sigma is homeomorphic to a three-holed sphere. In particular, for…
