We describe a special instance of the Goerss-Hopkins obstruction theory, due to Senger, for calculating the moduli of $E_\infty$ ring spectra with given mod-$p$ homology. In particular, for the $2$-primary Brown-Peterson spectrum we give a…

For an additive Waldhausen category linear over a ring $k$, the corresponding $K$-theory spectrum is a module spectrum over the $K$-theory spectrum of $k$. Thus if $k$ is a finite field of characteristic $p$, then after localization at $p$,…

We present a precise definition of extended homotopy quantum field theories and develop an orbifold construction for these theories when the target space is the classifying space of a finite group $G$, i.e. for $G$-equivariant topological…

We explain that the Pontryagin product structure on the equivariant $K$-group of an affine Grassmannian considered in [Lam-Schilling-Shimozono, Compos. Math. {\bf 146} (2010)] coincides with the tensor structure on the equivariant $K$-group…

We study a special type of $E_\infty$-operads that govern strictly unital $E_\infty$-coalgebras (and algebras) over the ring of integers. Morphisms of coalgebras over such an operad are defined by using universal $E_\infty$-bimodules. Thus…

We discuss the dynamical quantum systems which turn out to be bi-unitary with respect to the same alternative Hermitian structures in a infinite-dimensional complex Hilbert space. We give a necessary and sufficient condition so that the…

Given a ring R and S one of its proper ideals, we obtain a compactification of the prime spectrum of S through a mainly algebraic process. We name it the R-nilcompactification of SpecS. We study some categorical properties of this…

This paper begins by noting that, in a 1969 paper in the Transactions, M.C.McCord introduced a construction that can be interpreted as a model for the categorical tensor product of a based space and a topological abelian group. This can be…

We show that the classification of the symmetric spaces can be achieved by K-theoretical methods. We focus on Hermitian symmetric spaces of non-compact type, and define K-theory for JB*-triples along the lines of C*-theory. K-groups have to…

We give an a priori construction of the two-dimensional reduction of three-dimensional quantum Chern-Simons theory. This reduction is a two-dimensional topological quantum field theory and so determines to a Frobenius ring, which here is…

Let $\Uq$ be a quantum group. Regarding a (noncommutative) space with $\Uq$-symmetry as a $\Uq$-module algebra $A$, we may think of equivariant vector bundles on $A$ as projective $A$-modules with compatible $\Uq$-action. We construct an…

We generalize a recent result of Clausen: For a number field with integers O, we compute the K-theory of locally compact O-modules. For the rational integers this recovers Clausen's result as a special case. Our method of proof is quite…

The real singular cohomology ring of a homogeneous space $G/K$, interpreted as the real Borel equivariant cohomology $H^*_K(G)$, was historically the first computation of equivariant cohomology of any nontrivial connected group action.…

Goerss--Hopkins obstruction theory is a powerful tool for constructing structured ring spectra from purely algebraic data. Using the formalism of model $\infty$-categories, we provide a generalization that applies in an arbitrary…

Can there be a structure space-type theory for an arbitrary class of ideals of a ring? The ideal spaces introduced in this paper allows such a study and our theory includes (but not restricted to) prime, maximal, minimal prime, strongly…

We study matrix semigroups in which ring commutators have real spectra. We prove that irreducible semigroups with this property are simultaneously similar to semigroups of real-entried matrices. We also obtain a structure theorem for…

We prove a recognition principle for motivic infinite P1-loop spaces over a perfect field. This is achieved by developing a theory of framed motivic spaces, which is a motivic analogue of the theory of E-infinity-spaces. A framed motivic…

The topological Hochschild homology THH(R) of a commutative S-algebra (E_infty ring spectrum) R naturally has the structure of a commutative R-algebra in the strict sense, and of a Hopf algebra over R in the homotopy category. We show,…

We introduce a (bi)category $\mathfrak{Sing}$ whose objects can be functorially assigned spaces of distributions and generalized functions. In addition, these spaces of distributions and generalized functions possess intrinsic notions of…

A functor on compact Hausdorf spaces is constructed as the sum of certain equivariant K-theory groups. It is shown that the functor takes values in lambda-rings and satisfies a Thom isomorphism. In the case that the space is a CW-complex…
