Using a previous classification result on symmetric additive 2-cocycles, we collect a variety of facts about the Lubin-Tate cohomology of formal groups to compute the 2-primary component of the scheme of symmetric multiplicative 2-cocycles.…
The topic of this thesis is the application of distributive laws between comonads to the theory of cyclic homology. Explicitly, our main aims are: 1) To study how the cyclic homology of associative algebras and of Hopf algebras in the…
For many finite groups a symmetric $2$-cocycle $\alpha$ ($\alpha(g,h)=\alpha(h,g)$, for all pairs $(h,g)$ of the group) with values in $\mathbb{C}^\times$ is a coboundary. We show using a theoretic arguement and GAP that there is a group of…
Rigid meromorphic cocycles were introduced by Darmon and Vonk as a conjectural $p$-adic extension of the theory of singular moduli to real quadratic base fields. They are certain cohomology classes of $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z}[1/p])$ which…
Categorical rings were introduced by Jibladze and Pirashvili in their paper "Third Mac Lane cohomology via categorical rings", Journal of Homotopy and related structures, 2, 2007, 187-216. We call those "2-rings". In these notes we present…
We investigate similarities between the category of vector spaces and that of polytopal algebras, containing the former as a full subcategory. In Section 2 we introduce the notion of a polytopal Picard group and show that it is trivial for…
A continuous cohomology theory for topological quandles is introduced, and compared to the algebraic theories. Extensions of topological quandles are studied with respect to continuous 2-cocycles, and used to show the differences in second…
An equivalent description of a symmetric monoidal category is introduced in which, instead of separate associator and commutator isomorphisms satisfying the usual coherence axioms, we simply have associo-commutator isomorphisms satisfying…
For a symplectic manifold $(M,\om)$ with exact symplectic form we construct a 2-cocycle on the group of symplectomorphisms and indicate cases when this cocycle is not trivial.
The fundamental theorem of symmetric polynomials over rings is a classical result which states that every unital commutative ring is fully elementary, i.e. we can express symmetric polynomials with elementary ones in a unique way. The…
In the paper, we consider the class of so-called endo-commutative algebras. From the identity imposed to specify this class, one can easily see that the product in this class preserves the square of elements. We give a complete…
We determine the integral cohomology rings of an infinite family of p-groups, for odd primes p, with cyclic derived subgroups. Our method involves embedding the groups in a compact Lie group of dimension one, and was suggested by P H…
Multiplicative hyperrings are an important class of algebraic hyperstructures which generalize rings further to allow multiple output values for the multiplication operation. Let R be a commutative multiplicative hyperring. The 2-prime…
By a 2-ring we mean a groupoid with a structure analogous to that of a ring, up to coherent isomorphisms. Two different notions of 2-ring appear in the literature: the notion of {\em Ann-category}, due to Quang, and the notion of {\em…
On Lie algebras, we study commutative 2-cocycles, i.e., symmetric bilinear forms satisfying the usual cocycle equation. We note their relationship with antiderivations and compute them for some classes of Lie algebras, including…
As an example of the categorical apparatus of pseudo algebras over 2-theories, we show that pseudo algebras over the 2-theory of categories can be viewed as pseudo double categories with folding or as appropriate 2-functors into…
Quantum symmetric algebras (or noncommutative polynomial rings) arise in many places in mathematics. In this article we find the multiplicative structure of their Hochschild cohomology when the coefficients are in an arbitrary bimodule…
This paper describes the $K$-theory structure for three algebra classes. For cyclic $p$-group rings and truncated polynomial rings over $\mathbb{Z}/p^s\mathbb{Z}$, we determine reduced $K_2$-structures via a common algebraic framework. For…
With every family of finitely many subsets of a finite-dimensional vector space over the Galois-field with two elements we associate a cyclic transversal polytope. It turns out that those polytopes generalize several well-known polytopes…
This paper analyzes the second cohomology group of a linear cycle set with coefficients in an abelian group I, for linear cycle sets with commutative adjoint operation, focusing on the finite abelian case. It aims to classify extensions of…
