We give an explicit finite-dimensional model for the derived moduli stack of flat connections on $\mathbb{C}^k$ with logarithmic singularities along a weighted homogeneous Saito free divisor. We investigate in detail the case of plane…

Let $L$ be a countable CW-complex and $F\colon X\to Y$ be upper semicontinuous $UV^{[L]}$-valued mapping of a paracompact space $X$ to a complete metric space $Y$. We prove that if $X$ is a C-space of extension dimension $\ed X \le [L]$,…

We denote the $n$-th projective space of a topological monoid $G$ by $B_nG$ and the classifying space by $BG$. Let $G$ be a well-pointed topological monoid of the homotopy type of a CW complex and $G'$ a well-pointed grouplike topological…

Suppose $X$ and $Y$ are finite complexes, with $Y$ simply connected. Gromov conjectured that the number of mapping classes in $[X,Y]$ which can be realized by $L$-Lipschitz maps grows asymptotically as $L^\alpha$, where $\alpha$ is an…

Given a diagram of rings, one may consider the category of modules over them. We are interested in the homotopy theory of categories of this type: given a suitable diagram of model categories M(s) (as s runs through the diagram), we…

This paper proves that the functor $C(*)$ that sends pointed, simply-connected CW-complexes to their chain-complexes equipped with diagonals and iterated higher diagonals, determines their integral homotopy type --- even inducing an…

It is shown that for any Baire space $X$, linearly ordered compact spaces $Y_1,\dots, Y_n$, compact space $Y\subseteq Y_1\times\cdots \times Y_n$ such that for every parallelepiped $W\subseteq Y_1\times\cdots \times Y_n$ the set $Y\cap W$…

We consider certain rational homotopical conditions of simly connected CW complex $X$ such that the rational cohomology of the classifying space $Baut_1X$ for fibrations with two-stage fibre $X$ is (not) free. First, we consider when is…

Let $F$ be a local field with residue field $k$. The classifying space of $GL_n(F)$ comes canonically equipped with a map to the delooping of the $K$-theory space of $k$. Passing to loop spaces, such a map abstractly encodes a homotopy…

Let $W$ be a domain in a connected complex manifold $M$ and $w_0\in W$. Let ${\mathcal A}_{w_0}(W,M)$ be the space of all continuous mappings of a closed unit disk $\overline D$ into $M$ that are holomorphic on the interior of $\overline…

Let $Y$ be a CW-complex with a single 0-cell, $K$ its Kan group, a model for the loop space of $Y$, and let $G$ be a compact, connected Lie group. We give an explicit finite dimensional construction of generators of the equivariant…

In this paper we give different compactifications for the domain and the codomain of an affine rational map $f$ which parametrizes a hypersurface. We show that the closure of the image of this map (with possibly some other extra…

We show a Whitney Approximation Theorem for a continuous map from a manifold to a smooth CW complex. This enables us to show that a topological CW complex is homotopy equivalent to a smooth CW complex in a category of topological spaces. It…

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…

Let V, W be real algebraic varieties (that is, up to isomorphism, real algebraic sets), and let X be a subset of V. A map f from X into W is said to be regular if it can be extended to a regular map defined on some Zariski locally closed…

Given a simplicial complex $X$, we construct a simplicial complex $\Omega X$ that may be regarded as a combinatorial version of the based loop space of a topological space. Our construction explicitly describes the simplices of $\Omega X$…

Let Aut(p) denote the topological monoid of self-fibre-homotopy equivalences of a fibration p:E\to B. We make a general study of this monoid, especially in rational homotopy theory. When E and B are simply connected CW complexes with E…

The homotopy fiber of the inclusion from the long embedding space to the long immersion space is known to be an iterated based loop space (if the codimension is greater than two). In this paper we deloop the homotopy fiber to obtain the…

We compactify the moduli stack of maps from curves to certain quotient stacks $\mathcal{X}=[W/G]$ with a projective good moduli space, extending previous results from quasimap theory. For doing so, we introduce a new birational…

Let p be an odd regular prime, and assume that the Lichtenbaum-Quillen conjecture holds for K(Z[1/p]) at p. Then the p-primary homotopy type of the smooth Whitehead spectrum Wh(*) is described. A suspended copy of the cokernel-of-J spectrum…
