We study several structure aspects of functor categories from a small additive category to a module category, in particular the category F(A,K) of functors from finitely generated free modules over a commutative ring A to vector spaces over…

Models of dependent type theories are contextual categories with some additional structure. We prove that if a theory $T$ has enough structure, then the category $T\text{-}\mathbf{Mod}$ of its models carries the structure of a model…

We develop a version of controlled algebra for simplicial rings. This generalizes the methods which lead to successful proofs of the algebraic K- theory isomorphism conjecture (Farrell-Jones Conjecture) for a large class of groups. This is…

We provide a description of Voevodsky's $\infty$-category of motivic spectra in terms of the subcategory of motives of smooth proper varieties. As applications, we construct weight filtrations on the Betti and \'{e}tale cohomologies of…

We enumerate smooth rational curves on very general Weierstrass fibrations over hypersurfaces in projective space. The generating functions for these numbers lie in the ring of classical modular forms. The method of proof uses topological…

We study topological properties of the correspondence of prime spectra associated to a noncommutative ring homomorphism R -> S. Our main result provides criteria for the adjointness of certain functors between the categories of Zariski…

Let $K$ be a perfect field and let $E$ be a homotopy commutative ring spectrum in the Morel-Voevodsky stable motivic homotopy category $\mathcal{SH}(K)$. In this work we investigate the relation between the $E$-homology localization and…

We study the units in a tensor product of rings. For example, let k be an algebraically closed field. Let A and B be reduced rings containing k, having connected spectra. Let u \in A tensor_k B be a unit. Then u = a tensor_k b for some…

We study the question for which commutative ring spectra $A$ the tensor of a simplicial set $X$ with $A$, $X \otimes A$, is a stable invariant in the sense that it depends only on the homotopy type of $\Sigma X$. We prove several structural…

After surveying higher K-theory of toric varieties, we present Totaro's old (c. 1997) unpublished result on expressing the corresponding homotopy theory via singular cohomology. It is a higher analog of the rational Chern character…

Rump has recently showed the existence of a unique maximal Quillen exact structure on any additive category. We study when this is given by the stable short exact sequences, i.e. kernel-cokernel pairs consisting of a semi-stable kernel and…

Let K be an expansion of either an ordered field or a valued field. Given a definable set X $\subseteq$ K^m let C(X) be the ring of continuous definable functions from X to K. Under very mild assumptions on the geometry of X and…

This text gives a construction of a differential graded Lie algebra in Nori's category of effective homological motives. In fact the construction works in more a general setting than that of an Abelian category. This allows us to give the…

String theories with two dimensional space-time target spaces are characterized by the existence of a ``ground ring'' of operators of spin $(0,0)$. By understanding this ring, one can understand the symmetries of the theory and illuminate…

Using a construction closely related to Waldhausen's $S_\bullet$-construction, we produce a spectrum $K(\mathbf{Var}_{/k})$ whose components model the Grothendieck ring of varieties (over a field $k$) $K_0 (\mathbf{Var}_{/k})$. We then…

Under a certain normalization assumption we prove that the $\Pro^1$-spectrum $\mathrm{BGL}$ of Voevodsky which represents algebraic $K$-theory is unique over $\Spec(\mathbb{Z})$. Following an idea of Voevodsky, we equip the…

The focus of this thesis is on (1) the role of Ka\v c-Moody (KM) algebras in string theory and the development of techniques for systematically building string theory models based on higher level ($K\geq 2$) KM algebras and (2) fractional…

We apply the theory of cotorsion pairs to study closure properties of classes of modules with finite projective dimension with respect to direct limit operations and to filtrations. We also prove that if the ring is an order in an…

The Kerr solution is considered as a soliton-like background for spinning elementary particles. Two stringy structures may be found in the Kerr geometry, one string is real and another one is complex. The main attention in this paper is…

Infinite loop space theory, both additive and multiplicative, arose largely from two basic motivations. One was to solve calculational questions in geometric topology. The other was to better understand algebraic K-theory. The Adams…
