We study $d$-dimensional simplicial complexes that are PL embeddable in $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$. It is shown that such a complex must satisfy a certain homological condition. The existence of this obstruction allows us to provide a systematic…

G.W. Mackey's celebrated obstruction theory for projective representations of locally compact groups was remarkably generalized by J. M. G. Fell and R. S. Doran to the wide area of saturated Banach *-algebraic bundles. Analogous obstruction…

Let $A$ be a differential graded algebra with cohomology ring $H^*A$. A graded module over $H^*A$ is called \emph{realisable} if it is (up to direct summands) of the form $H^*M$ for some differential graded $A$-module $M$. Benson, Krause…

We consider closed simplicial and cubical $n$-complexes in terms of link of their $(n-2)$-faces. Especially, we consider the case, when this link has size 3 or 4, i.e., every $(n-2)$-face is contained in 3 or 4 $n$-faces. Such simplicial…

Given a matrix pseudodifferential operator on a smooth manifold, one may be interested in diagonalising it by choosing eigenvectors of its principal symbol in a smooth manner. We show that diagonalisation is not always possible, on the…

In this article, we provide a complete list of simple Cohen-Macaulay codimension 2 singularities together with a list of adjacencies which is complete in the case of fat point and space curve singularities.

For G_2-manifolds the Fern\'andez-Gray class X_1+X_4 is shown to consist of the union of the class X_4 of G_2-manifolds locally conformal to parallel G_2-structures and that of conformal transformations of nearly parallel or weak holonomy…

Let $M$ be a smooth manifold, smoothly triangulated by a simplicial complex $K$, and $\cA$ a transitive Lie algebroid on $M$. The Lie algebroid restriction of $\cA$ to a simplex $\Delta$ of $K$ is denoted by $\cA^{!!}_{\Delta}$. A piecewise…

In this paper, we deal with cohomological properties of weak amenability, cyclic amenability, cyclic weak amenability and point amenability of Banach algebras. We look at some hereditary properties of them and show that continuous…

In this paper, we continue the study of the existence problem of compact Clifford-Klein forms from a cohomological point of view, which was initiated by Kobayashi-Ono and extended by Benoist-Labourie and the author. We give an obstruction…

We provide a quantitative obstruction to collapsing surfaces of genus at least 2 under a lower curvature bound and an upper diameter bound. Keywords: curvature; diameter; volume; filling radius; systole; Gromov-Hausdorff distance

We show in this paper that the principal component of the first order jet scheme over the classical determinantal variety of m x n matrices of rank at most 1 is arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay, by showing that an associated Stanley-Reisner…

The notion of Laplacian of a graph can be generalized to simplicial complexes and hypergraphs, and contains information on the topology of these structures. Even for a graph, the consideration of associated simplicial complexes is…

In this article we show that a wide range of multiple structures on curves arise whenever a family of embeddings degenerates to a morphism $\varphi$ of degree $n$. One could expect to see, when an embedding degenerates to such a morphism,…

A class of simplicial complexes, which we call Buchsbaum* over a field, is introduced. Buchsbaum* complexes generalize triangulations of orientable homology manifolds as well as doubly Cohen-Macaulay complexes. By definition, the Buchsbaum*…

We study three related homological properties of modules in the BGG category O for basic classical Lie superalgebras, with specific focus on the general linear superalgebra. These are the projective dimension, associated variety and…

We prove the weak functoriality of (big) Cohen-Macaulay algebras, which controls the whole skein of "homological conjectures" in commutative algebra [H1][HH2]. Namely, for any local homomorphism $ R\to R'$ of complete local domains, there…

We study the simplicial coalgebra of chains on a simplicial set with respect to three notions of weak equivalence. To this end, we construct three model structures on the category of reduced simplicial sets for any commutative ring R. The…

We prove that the 2-category of skeletally small abelian categories with exact monoidal structures is anti-equivalent to the 2-category of fp-hom-closed definable additive categories satisfying an exactness criterion. For a fixed finitely…

In this note we show that a semisimplicial set with the weak Kan condition admits a simplicial structure, provided any object allows an idempotent self-equivalence. Moreover, any two choices of simplicial structures give rise to equivalent…
