Given a finite CW complex $K$, we use a version of the Goodwillie-Weiss tower to formulate an obstruction theory for embedding $K$ into a Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$. For $2$-dimensional complexes in $\mathbb{R}^4$, a geometric analogue…
We express the rational homotopy type of the mapping spaces $\mathrm{Map}^h(\mathsf D_m,\mathsf D_n^{\mathbb Q})$ of the little discs operads in terms of graph complexes. Using known facts about the graph homology this allows us to compute…
Let p be an odd regular prime, and assume that the Lichtenbaum-Quillen conjecture holds for K(Z[1/p]) at p. Then the p-primary homotopy type of the smooth Whitehead spectrum Wh(*) is described. A suspended copy of the cokernel-of-J spectrum…
A stable $\infty$-category is $1$-semiadditive if the norms for all finite group actions are equivalences. In the presence of $1$-semiadditivity, Goodwillie calculus simplifies drastically. We introduce two variants of $1$-semiadditivity…
This paper is the second in a series exploring the properties of a functor which assigns a homotopy double groupoid with connections to a Hausdorff space. We show that this functor satisfies a version of the van Kampen theorem, and so is a…
Goodwillie \cite{Goodwillie} introduced a periodic cyclic homology group associated to a mixed complex. In this paper, we apply this construction to the symplectic cochain complex of a Liouville domain $M$ and obtain two periodic symplectic…
We will explain how elementary concepts of relative homological algebra yield the Taylor tower for functors from pointed categories to abelian groups recovering the constructions of Johnson and McCarthy.
We work out the details of a correspondence observed by Goodwillie between cosimplicial spaces and good functors from a category of open subsets of the interval to the category of compactly generated weak Hausdorff spaces. Using this, we…
We develop a theory of Goodwillie calculus for functors between $G$-equivariant homotopy theories, where $G$ is a finite group. We construct $J$-excisive approximations of a homotopy functor for any finite $G$-set $J$. These fit together…
We survey the theory and applications of Goodwillie's calculus of homotopy functors and related topics.
The spectral sequence associated to the Arone-Goodwillie tower for the n-fold loop space functor is used to show that the first two non-trivial layers of the nilpotent filtration of the reduced mod 2 cohomology of a (sufficiently connected)…
A large variety of cohomology theories is derived from complex cobordism MU^*(-) by localizing with respect to certain elements or by killing regular sequences in MU_*. We study the relationship between certain pairs of such theories which…
A finite connected CW complex which is a co-H-space is shown to have the homotopy type of a wedge of a bunch of circles and a simply-connected finite complex after almost $p$-completion at a prime $p$.
Let $A \rightarrowtail G\twoheadrightarrow Q$ be a stem-extension and let $\rho: A\times G\to G$ be the multiplication map. We show that there is a natural map $\varphi: H_1(\Sigma_2^\epsilon, {\rm…
Let $H_n$ be the $n$-th group homology functor (with integer coeffcients) and let $\{G_i\} _ {i \in \mathbb{N}}$ be any tower of groups such that all maps $G_{i+1} \to G_i$ are surjective. In this work we study kernel and cokernel of the…
Goodwillie's rational isomorphism between relative algebraic K-theory and relative cyclic homology, together with the lambda decomposition of cyclic homology, illustrates the close relationships among algebraic K-theory, cyclic homology,…
We prove an "abelian, locally compact" Whitehead theorem in fine shape: A fine shape morphism between locally connected finite-dimensional locally compact separable metrizable spaces with trivial $\pi_0$ and $\pi_1$ is a fine shape…
In this note we compare the fracture squares from genuine equivariant stable homotopy theory and the fracture squares which appear in the Goodwillie tower for the norm functor.
This is the second of a series of papers which are devoted to a comprehensive theory of maps between orbifolds. In this paper, we develop a basic machinery for studying homotopy classes of such maps. It contains two parts: (1) the…
We study the cohomology of certain local systems on moduli spaces of principally polarized abelian surfaces with a level 2 structure. The trace of Frobenius on the alternating sum of the \'etale cohomology groups of these local systems can…
