The homotopy theory of the blow up construction in algebraic and symplectic geometry is investigated via two approaches. The first approach introduces and develops fibrewise surgery theory, for which the fibrewise framing is characterized…

In this talk, I will explain the importance of the homotopy branching space functor (and of the homotopy merging space functor) in dihomotopy theory. The paper is a detailed abstract of math.AT/0304112 and math.AT/0305169.

We study the rational homotopy types of classifying spaces of automorphism groups of smooth simply connected manifolds of dimension at least five. We give dg Lie algebra models for the homotopy automorphisms and the block diffeomorphisms of…

Let $f:G\rightarrow H$ be a homomorphism of groups, we construct a topological space $X_f$ such that its group of homeomorphisms is isomorphic to $G$, its group of homotopy classes of self-homotopy equivalences is isomorphic to $H$ and the…

This paper presents and explores a theory of \emph{multiholomorphic maps}. This group of ideas generalizes the theory of pseudoholomorphic curves in a direction suggested by consideration of the kinds of compatible geometric structures that…

Given any pointed CW complex (X,x), it is well known that the fondamental group of X pointed at x is naturally isomorphic to the automorphism group of the functor which associates to a locally constant sheaf on X its fibre at x. The purpose…

The study of homotopy theoretic phenomena in the language of type theory is sometimes loosely called `synthetic homotopy theory'. Homotopy theory in type theory is only one of the many aspects of homotopy type theory, which also includes…

A reparametrization (of a continuous path) is given by a surjective weakly increasing self-map of the unit interval. We show that the monoid of reparametrizations (with respect to compositions) can be understood via ``stop-maps'' that allow…

Given any model category, or more generally any category with weak equivalences, its simplicial localization is a simplicial category which can rightfully be called the "homotopy theory" of the model category. There is a model category…

We give details of models for rational torus equivariant homotopy theory based on (a) all subgroups, connected subgroups or dimensions of subgroups and (b) on pairs or general flags. We provide comparison functors and show the models are…

Many examples of zeta functions in number theory and combinatorics are special cases of a construction in homotopy theory known as a decomposition space. This article aims to introduce number theorists to the relevant concepts in homotopy…

A reflective subuniverse in homotopy type theory is an internal version of the notion of a localization in topology or in the theory of $\infty$-categories. Working in homotopy type theory, we give new characterizations of the following…

In this work we construct from ground up a homotopy theory of C*-algebras. This is achieved in parallel with the development of classical homotopy theory by first introducing an unstable model structure and second a stable model structure.…

Homotopic distance $\D$ as introduced in \cite{MVML} can be realized as a pseudometric on $\mathrm{Map}(X,Y)$. In this paper, we study the topology induced by the pseudometric $\D$. In particular, we consider the space…

Given CW complexes X and Y, let map(X,Y) denote the space of continuous functions from X to Y with the compact open topology. The space map(X,Y) need not have the homotopy type of a CW complex. Here the results of an extensive investigation…

Given pointed cellular spaces $X$ and $Y$, $X$ compact, and an integer $r\ge0$, we define a relation $\overset r\approx$ on $[X,Y]$ and argue for the conjecture that it always coincides with the $r$-similarity $\overset r\sim$.

We introduce the classical theory of the interplay between group theory and topology into the context of operads and explore some applications to homotopy theory. We first propose a notion of a group operad and then develop a theory of…
