Let $t$ be a positive integer. Following work of D. M. Davis, we study the topology of complex-projective product spaces, i.e. quotients of cartesian products of odd dimensional spheres by the diagonal $S^1$-action, and of the $t$-torsion…

Let X be a 1-connected compact space such that the algebra H*(X;Z/2) is generated by one single element. We compute the cohomology of the free loop space H*(LX;Z/2) including the Steenrod algebra action. When X is a projective space CP^n,…

In this paper, we compute the cohomology ring of all homology split polyhedral product spaces and the cohomology algebra over a field of all polyhedral product spaces. As an application, we give two polyhedral product spaces such that all…

It is shown that a (curved) projective structure on a smooth manifold determines on the Poisson algebra of smooth, fiberwise-polynomial functions on the cotangent bundle a one-parameter family of graded star products. For a particular value…

In the framework of quantum mechanics over a quadratic extension of the ultrametric field of p-adic numbers, we introduce a notion of tensor product of p-adic Hilbert spaces. To this end, following a standard approach, we first consider the…

We explore questions of projectivity and tensor products of modules for finite dimensional Hopf algebras. We construct many classes of examples in which tensor powers of nonprojective modules are projective and tensor products of modules in…

We study symplectic and projective structures on small covers over products of polygons. We introduce the factor-compatible class for small covers over products of polygons and prove that every factor-compatible small cover admits a smooth…

We study unital operator spaces endowed with a partially defined product. We give a matrix-norm characterization of such products that allows for a representation theorem where the partial product is realized as composition of operators on…

We compute the equivariant homology and cohomology of projective spaces with integer coefficients. More precisely, in the case of cyclic groups, we show that the cellular filtration of the projective space $P(k\rho )$, of lines inside…

Given a positive integer $n$ and a partition $(n_1,\ldots,n_r)$ of $n$, one can consider the associated $n$-dimensional multiprojective space $\mathbb{P}^{n_1}\times \cdots \times \mathbb{P}^{n_r}$. These multiprojective spaces are…

We address the general classification problem of all stable associative product structures in the complex cobordism theory. We show how to reduce this problem to the algebraic one in terms of the Hopf algebra $S$ (the Landweber-Novikov…

Let G = Z2 act freely on a nitistic space X. If the mod 2 cohomology of X is isomorphic to the real projective space RP^{2n+1} (resp. complex projective space CP^{2n+1}) then the mod 2 cohomology of orbit spaces of these free actions are…

We describe the integral equivariant cohomology ring of a weighted projective space in terms of piecewise polynomials, and thence by generators and relations. We deduce that the ring is a perfect invariant, and prove a Chern class formula…

Let $M$ and $N$ be Riemannian symmetric spaces and $f:M\to N$ be a parallel isometric immersion. We additionally assume that there exist simply connected, irreducible Riemannian symmetric spaces $M_i$ with $\dim(M_i)\geq 2$ for $i=1,...,r$…

We study the set ${\mathcal P}_S$ consisting of all branched holomorphic projective structures on a compact Riemann surface $X$ of genus $g \geq 1$ and with a fixed branching divisor $S:= \sum_{i=1}^d n_i\cdot x_i$, where $x_i \in X$. Under…

The problem of whether the cohomological support map of a finite dimensional Hopf algebra has the tensor product property has attracted a lot of attention following the earlier developments on representations of finite group schemes. Many…

We compute the cohomology of the right generalised projective Stiefel manifolds and use it to find bounds on the rank of the complementary bundle for certain vector bundles. Further the cohomology computations are also used to find bounds…

In this paper we define a Poincar\'e-Reidemeister scalar product on the determinant line of the cohomology of any flat vector bundle over a closed orientable odd-dimensional manifold. It is a combinatorial "torsion-type" invariant which…

Let $BPU(n)$ be the classifying space of the projective unitary group $PU(n)$. We determine the integral cohomology ring of $BPU(4)$, and the Steenrod algebra structure of its mod $2$ cohomology.

For every n, we construct a metric measure space that is doubling, satisfies a Poincare inequality in the sense of Heinonen-Koskela, has topological dimension n, and has a measurable tangent bundle of dimension 1.
