This expository article presents a self-contained introduction to simplicial homology for finite simplicial complexes, emphasizing concrete computation and geometric intuition. Beginning with orientations of simplices and the construction…
This work arose from efforts to generalise the usual cubical boundary by using different 'weights' for opposite faces, but still to obtain a chain complex, and this method was found to generalise. We describe a variant of the classical…
The "simplicial complexes" and "join" (*) today used within combinatorics aren't the classical concepts, cf. Spanier (1966) p. 108-9, but, exept for \emptyset, complexes having {\emptyset} as a subcomplex resp. \Sigma1 * \Sigma2 := {\sigma1…
Semigroups generated by topological operations such as closure, interior or boundary are considered. It is noted that some of these semigroups are in general finite and noncommutative. The problem is formulated whether they are always…
We describe a new Maple package for treating boundary problems for linear ordinary differential equations, allowing two-/multipoint as well as Stieltjes boundary conditions. For expressing differential operators, boundary conditions, and…
In recent work, we introduced topological notions of simple normal crossings symplectic divisor and variety, showed that they are equivalent, in a suitable sense, to the corresponding geometric notions, and established a topological…
It is well known that elliptic operators on a smooth compact manifold are classified by K-homology. We prove that a similar classification is also valid for manifolds with simplest singularities: isolated conical points and fibered…
We study topological boundedness of order-to-topology bounded and order-to-topology continuous operators from ordered vector spaces to topological vector spaces. The uniform boundedness principle for such operators is investigated.
We construct examples of nonresolvable generalized $n$-manifolds, $n\geq 6$, with arbitrary resolution obstruction, homotopy equivalent to any simply connected, closed $n$-manifold. We further investigate the structure of generalized…
We study boundary value problems for linear elliptic differential operators of order one. The underlying manifold may be noncompact, but the boundary is assumed to be compact. We require a symmetry property of the principal symbol of the…
We study the complex property $\partial\partial = 0$ of the boundary operator $\partial$ on a weighted, infinite, and possibly non-locally finite simplicial complex. We give a characterization of this property in $\ell^2$ in terms of the…
This paper is the first of two papers constructing a calculus of pseudodifferential operators suitable for doing analysis on Q-rank 1 locally symmetric spaces and Riemannian manifolds generalizing these. This generalization is the interior…
Using the unbounded picture of analytical K-homology, we associate a well-defined K-homology class to an unbounded symmetric operator satisfying certain mild technical conditions. We also establish an ``addition formula'' for the Dirac…
An isometric operator V in a Pontryagin space H is called standard, if its domain and the range are nondegenerate subspaces in H. A description of coresolvents for standard isometric operators is known and basic underlying concepts that…
We study the topology of the complements of discriminants of simple real boundary singularities by counting the connected components of these sets and assigning to them certain topological characteristics. Results of this paper serve as a…
We introduce an abstract framework for elliptic boundary value problems in a variational form. Given a non-negative quadratic form in a Hilbert space, a boundary pair consists of a bounded operator, the boundary operator, and an auxiliary…
We introduce a new topological invariant of complex line arrangements in the complex projective plane, derived from the interaction between their complement and the boundary of a regular neighbourhood. The motivation is to identify Zariski…
We study the Laplace operator with Dirichlet or Neumann boundary condition on polygons in the Euclidean plane. We prove that almost every simply connected polygon with at least four vertices has simple spectrum. We also address the more…
The purpose of this note is to describe a unified approach to the fundamental results in the spectral theory of boundary value problems, restricted to the case of Dirac type operators. Even though many facts are known and well presented in…
The use of homological and homotopical devices, such as Tor and Andr\'e-Quillen homology, have found substantial use in characterizing commutative algebras. The primary category setting has been differentially graded algebras and modules,…
