We prove that any geometrically connected curve $X$ over a field $k$ is an algebraic $K(\pi,1)$, as soon as its geometric irreducible components have nonzero genus. This means that the cohomology of any locally constant constructible…

Over an associative ring we consider a class $\mathbb{X}$ of left modules which is closed under set-indexed coproducts and direct summands. We investigate when the triangulated homotopy category $\mathsf{K}(\mathbb{X})$ is compactly…

Let $X$ be a simplicial set. We construct a novel adjunction between the categories of retractive spaces over $X$ and of $X_{+}$-comodules, then apply recent work on left-induced model category structures (arXiv:1401.3651v2…

For an arbitrary simplicial complex K, Davis and Januszkiewicz have defined a family of homotopy equivalent CW-complexes whose integral cohomology rings are isomorphic to the Stanley-Reisner algebra of K. Subsequently, Buchstaber and Panov…

This paper provides an extensive study of the homotopy theory of types of algebras with units, like unital associative algebras or unital commutative algebras for instance. To this purpose, we endow the Koszul dual category of curved…

Every principal G-bundle is classified up to equivalence by a homotopy class of maps into the classifying space of G. On the other hand, for every nice topological space Milnor constructed a strict model of loop space, that is a group.…

We investigate the formal principle for holomorphic line bundles on neighborhoods of an analytic subset of a complex manifold mainly in the case where it can be realized as an open subset of a compact K\"ahler manifold. Our approach…

We give the first tractable and systematic examples of nontrivial higher digraph homotopy groups. To do this we define relative digraph homotopy groups and show these satisfy a long exact sequence analogous to the relative homotopy groups…

First we survey and explain the strategy of some recent results that construct holomorphic $\text{sl}(2, \mathbb C)$-differential systems over some Riemann surfaces $\Sigma_g$ of genus $g\geq 2$, satisfying the condition that the image of…

This paper is on the connecting homomorphism in the long exact homotopy sequence of the evaluation fibration $ev_{p_0}:C(P,K)^K \to K$, where $C(P,K)^K \cong Gau(P)$ is the gauge group of a continuous principal $K$-bundle $P$ over a closed…

We begin the systematic study of cohomological Hecke operators of modifications of coherent sheaves on a smooth surface $X$, along a fixed proper curve $Z \subset X$. We develop the necessary geometric foundations in order to define the…

Is a given map between compact topological manifolds homotopic to the projection map of a fiber bundle? In this paper obstructions to this question are introduced with values in higher algebraic K-theory. Their vanishing implies that the…

In this book we prove unified classification results for equivariant principal bundles when the topological structure group is truncated. The conceptually transparent proof invokes a smooth Oka principle, which becomes available after…

Let $X$ be a compact complex manifold, and let $\pi: \mathcal{X} \rightarrow B$ be a small deformation of $X$, the dimensions of the Bott-Chern cohomology groups $H_{\rm BC}^{p,q}(X(t))$ and Aeppli cohomology groups $H_{\rm A}^{p,q}(X(t))$…

In this document we study the local connectivity of the sets whose elements are $m$-tuples of pairwise commuting normal matrix contractions. Given $\varepsilon>0$, we prove that there is $\delta>0$ such that for any two $m$-tuples of…

We consider the connected sum of two three-dimensional lens spaces $L_1\#L_2$, where $L_1$ and $L_2$ are non-diffeomorphic and are of a certain "generic" type. Our main result is the calculation of the cohomology ring…

In this work, we deal with a notion of partially hyperbolic endomorphism. We explore topological properties of this definition and we obtain, among other results, obstructions to get center leaf conjugacy with the linear part, for a class…

We show that the categories PsTop and Lim of pseudotopological spaces and limit spaces, respectively, admit cofibration category structures, and that PsTop admits a model category structure, giving several ways to simultaneously study the…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $k$ be a field of characteristic $p>0$. A cohomology class $\zeta \in H^n(G,k)$ is called productive if it annihilates $\Ext^*_{kG}(L_{\zeta},L_{\zeta})$. We consider the chain complex $\bPz$ of projective…

We consider various generalisations of the string class of a loop group bundle. The string class is the obstruction to lifting a bundle whose structure group is the loop group $LG$ to one whose structure group is the Kac-Moody central…
