We study, in an abstract axiomatic setting, the notion of sectional category of a morphism. From this, we unify and generalize known results about this invariant in different settings as well as we deduce new applications.

We study the complexity of the isomorphism relation for various classes of closed subgroups of the group of permutations of the natural numbers. We use the setting of Borel reducibility between equivalence relations on Polish spaces. For…

In conformal field theory the understanding of correlation functions can be divided into two distinct conceptual levels: The analytic properties of the correlators endow the representation categories of the underlying chiral symmetry…

We give an explicit upper bound for the number of equivalence classes of binary forms with rational integral coefficients of given degree and given discriminant, and with given splitting field. Further, we give an explicit upper bound for…

Category computation theory deals with a web-based systemic processing that underlies the morphic webs, which constitute the basis of categorial logical calculus. It is proven that, for these structures, algorithmically incompressible…

We prove a lower bound for the topological complexity, in the sense of Smale, of the problem of finding a flex point on a cubic plane curve. The key is to bound the Schwarz genus of a cover associated to this problem. We also show that our…

We provide a complete system of invariants for the formal classification of complex analytic unipotent germs of diffeomorphism at $\cn{n}$ fixing the orbits of a regular vector field. We reduce the formal classification problem to solve a…

It is shown how to extend the formal variational calculus in order to incorporate integrals of divergences into it. Such a generalization permits to study nontrivial boundary problems in field theory on the base of canonical formalism.

We study a probabilistic variant of the r-th sequential parametrized topological complexity, which bounds this classical invariant from below and measures the difficulty in constructing permissive parametrized motion planning algorithms. On…

We explore various formality and finiteness properties in the differential graded algebra models for the Sullivan algebra of piecewise polynomial rational forms on a space. The 1-formality property of the space may be reinterpreted in terms…

We give bounds for the module sectional category of products of maps which generalise a theorem of Jessup for Lusternik-Schnirelmann category. We deduce also a proof of a Ganea type conjecture for topological complexity. This is a first…

We give a simple algebraic characterisation of the sectional category of rational maps admitting a homotopy retraction. As a particular case we get the F\'elix-Halperin theorem for rational Lusternik-Schnirelmann category and prove the…

We construct an explicit semifree model for the fiber join of two fibrations p: E --> B and p': E' --> B from semifree models of p and p'. Using this model, we introduce a lower bound of the sectional category of a fibration p which can be…

In this paper we consider the classification of minimal cellular structures of spaces of topological complexity two under some hypotheses on there graded cohomological algebra. This continues the method used by M.Grant et al. in [1].

These expository notes are dedicated to the study of the topology of configuration spaces of manifolds. We give detailed computations of many invariants, including the fundamental group of the configuration spaces of $\mathbb{R}^2$, the…

In the paper we compute the ring strucure on the rational cohomology of a complex subspace complement. For that we construct a small differential graded subalgebra of the De Concini-Procesi wonderful model that is quasi isomorphic to this…

The level of a module over a differential graded algebra measures the number of steps required to build the module in an appropriate triangulated category. Based on this notion, we introduce a new homotopy invariant of spaces over a fixed…

We find the complete rational homology for the finite subset spaces of a $d$-dimensional sphere. We also determine the integral homology in top $d$ degrees and obtain a partial description of it in codimension $d$.

We define and discuss G-formality for certain spaces endowed with an action by a compact Lie group. This concept is essentially formality of the Borel construction of the space in a category of commutative differential graded algebras over…

Farber introduced a notion of topological complexity $\TC(X)$ that is related to robotics. Here we introduce a series of numerical invariants $\TC_n(X), n=1,2, ...$ such that $\TC_2(X)=\TC(X)$ and $\TC_n(X)\le \TC_{n+1}(X)$. For these…
