In this article we consider a space B_{com}G assembled from commuting elements in a Lie group G first defined in [Adem, Cohen, Torres-Giese 2012]. We describe homotopy-theoretic properties of these spaces using homotopy colimits, and their…

Let p be a fibration of simply connected CW complexes with finite base B and fibre F. Let aut_1(p) denote the identity component of the space of all fibre-homotopy self-equivalences of p and Baut_1(p) the classifying space for this…

We study categories of d-dimensional cobordisms from the perspective of Tillmann and Galatius-Madsen-Tillmann-Weiss. There is a category $C_\theta$ of closed smooth (d-1)-manifolds and smooth d-dimensional cobordisms, equipped with…

Relying on the computation of the Andre-Quillen homology groups for unstable Hopf algebras, we prove that the mod p cohomology of the n-connected cover of a finite H-space is always finitely generated as algebra over the Steenrod algebra.

This monograph introduces a framework for genuine proper equivariant stable homotopy theory for Lie groups. The adjective `proper' alludes to the feature that equivalences are tested on compact subgroups, and that the objects are built from…

We introduce a way of describing cohomology of the symmetric groups with coefficients in Specht modules over Z or F_p. We study i-th-degree cohomology for i in {0,1,2}. The focus lies on the isomorphism type of second-degree cohomology of…

The mod 2 cohomology algebra of the holomorph of any finite cyclic group whose order is a power of 2 is determined.

We give a description of the cohomology groups of the structure sheaf on smooth compactifications $\overline{X}(w)$ of Deligne--Lusztig varieties $X(w)$ for ${\rm GL}_n$, for all elements $w$ in the Weyl group. As a consequence, we obtain…

We give a construction of the moduli space of stable maps to the classifying stack B\mu_r of a cyclic group by a sequence of r-th root constructions on M_{0, n}. We prove a closed formula for the total Chern class of \mu_r-eigenspaces of…

In this paper we establish a connection between the cohomology of a modular Lie algebra and its p-envelopes. We also compute the cohomology of Zassenhaus algebras and their minimal p-envelopes with coefficients in generalized baby Verma…

Fix a prime $p$ and a chromatic height $h$. We prove that the homotopy $(k,1)$-category of $L_h$-local spectra $\mathrm{h}_k\big(\mathrm{Sp}_{p,h}\big)$ is algebraic as a symmetric monoidal category when $p > O(h^2+kh)$. To achieve this, we…

I discuss the problem of realizing families of complex orientable homology theories as families of commutative ring spectra, including a recent result of Jacob Lurie emphasizing the role of p-divisible groups.

We prove that extension groups in strict polynomial functor categories compute the rational cohomology of classical algebraic groups. This result was previously known only for general linear groups. We give several applications to the study…

We show that for topological groups and loop contractible coefficients the cohomology groups of continuous group cochains and of group cochains that are continuous on some identity neighbourhood are isomorphic. Moreover, we show a similar…

We prove a version of J.P. May's theorem on the additivity of traces, in symmetric monoidal stable $\infty$-categories. Our proof proceeds via a categorification, namely we use the additivity of topological Hochschild homology as an…

We introduce Hochschild (co-)homology of morphisms of schemes or analytic spaces and study its fundamental properties. In analogy with the cotangent complex we introduce the so called (derived) Hochschild complex of a morphism; the…

Fix a prime number p and a non-negative integer n. We prove that if a p-complete spectrum X satisfying a mild finiteness condition has the same mod p cohomology as BP<n> as a module over the Steenrod algebra, then X is weak homotopy…

We exhibit a family of complex manifolds, which has a member at each odd complex dimension and which has the same cohomology groups as the complex projective space at that dimension, but not homotopy equivalent to it. We also analyze the…

The CW structure of certain spaces, such as effective orbifolds, can be too complicated for computational purposes. In this paper we use the concept of $\mathbf{q}$-CW complex structure on an orbifold, to detect torsion in its integral…

Building on our previous joint work with A. Schmitt [7] we explain a recursive algorithm to determine the cohomology of moduli spaces of Higgs bundles on any given curve (in the coprime situation). As an application of the method we compute…
