Let Map_T(K,X) denote the mapping space of continuous based functions between two based spaces K and X. If K is a fixed finite complex, Greg Arone has recently given an explicit model for the Goodwillie tower of the functor sending a space…

Let G be a Lie goup, let M and N be smooth connected G-manifolds, let f be a smooth G-map from M to N, and let P denote the fiber of f. Given a closed and equivariantly closed relative 2-form for f with integral periods, we construct the…

We show that the vector bundle on the moduli stack $M_\mathrm{ell}$ of elliptic curves associated to the $2$-cell complex $C\nu$ is isomorphic to the de Rham cohomology sheaf $\mathrm{H}^1_\mathrm{dR}(\mathcal{E}/M_\mathrm{ell})$ of the…

The classical Serre-Swan theorem asserts that any finitely generated projective module over the algebra $C^\infty(M)$ of smooth functions of a manifold $M$ can be realized as the sections of a vector bundle over $M$. In this article, we…

This mostly expository paper records some basic facts about towers of homotopy fiber sequences. We give a proof that a pairing of towers induces a pairing of associated spectral sequences, for towers of spaces and towers of spectra.

We study the relation between the persistent homology and the spectral sequence of a filtered chain complex over a field. Our method is based on a decomposition of the persistent homology. We demonstrate that, under fairly general…

We give a complete, self-contained computation of the spectral data parametrising Higgs bundles in the generic fibres of the $\mathrm{SO}_{2n+1}$-Hitchin fibration where the Higgs fields are $L$-twisted endomorphisms. Although the spectral…

For an $\E$-ring spectrum $R$ and a map $f:X\to Pic(R)$ of spaces, the Thom spectrum $\T f$ is a comodule over $R\otimes\Si X$. In this parper we study the topological coHochschild homology of $R\otimes\Si X$ with coefficient $\T f$. More…

For the associative algebra $A(\mathfrak g)$ of an infinite-dimensional Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$, we introduce twisted fiber bundles over arbitrary compact topological spaces. Fibers of such bundles are given by elements of algebraic…

We classify the total spaces of bundles over the four sphere with fiber a three sphere up to orientation preserving and reversing homotopy equivalence, homeomorphism and diffeomorphism. These total spaces have been of interest to both…

In this note we define fibrations of topological stacks and establish their main properties. We prove various standard results about fibrations (fiber homotopy exact sequence, Leray-Serre and Eilenberg-Moore spectral sequences, etc.). We…

In this paper, we prove that the ${\rm Ham}$-orbit space from a fiber of a large family of cotangent bundles, as a metric space with respect to the Floer-theoretic spectral metric, contains a quasi-isometric embedding of an…

We generalize Kontsevich's construction of characteristic classes of fibre bundles with homology sphere fibres and a trivialization of the vertical tangent bundle to framed fibre bundles with closed manifold fibres.

This note explores the interaction between cohomology operations in a generalized cohomology theory and a string topology loop coproduct dual to the Chas--Sullivan loop product. More precisely, we ask for a description for the failure of a…

We establish a general link between integrable systems in algebraic geometry (expressed as Jacobian flows on spectral curves) and soliton equations (expressed as evolution equations on flat connections). Our main result is a natural…

Let $M$ be a smooth manifold. We use Chern-Weil theory to study the characteristic classes of principal $G$-bundles built from continuous families of $\pi_{1}(M)$-representations, where $G$ is a compact Lie group. We then relate these…

Let $\pi: X \to S$ be a family of smooth projective curves, and let $L$ and $M$ be a pair of line bundles on $X$. We show that Deligne's line bundle $\langle{L,M}\rangle$ can be obtained from the $\mathcal{K}_2$-gerbe $G_{L,M}$ constructed…

We consider an open string version of the topological twist previously proposed for sigma-models with G2 target spaces. We determine the cohomology of open strings states and relate these to geometric deformations of calibrated submanifolds…

Given a vector bundle $F$ on a variety $X$ and $W\subset H^0(F)$ such that the evaluation map $W\otimes \mathcal{O}_X\to F$ is surjective, its kernel $S_{F,W}$ is called generalized syzygy bundle. Under mild assumptions, we construct a…

This paper is devoted to rigidity of smooth bundles which are equipped with fiberwise geometric or dynamical structure. We show that the fiberwise associated sphere bundle to a bundle whose leaves are equipped with (continuously varying)…
