Let G be a profinite group with finite virtual cohomological dimension and let X be a discrete G-spectrum. If H and K are closed subgroups of G, with H normal in K, then, in general, the K/H-spectrum X^{hH} is not known to be a continuous…

The group of continuous binary operations on a topological space is studied; its relationship with the group of homeomorphisms is established. The category of binary $G$-spaces and bi-equivariant maps is constructed, which is a natural…

We obtain explicit formulas for the rational homotopy groups of generalised symmetric spaces, i.e., the homogeneous spaces for which the isotropy subgroup appears as the fixed point group of some finite order automorphism of the group. In…

We study the $RO(G)$-graded Bredon cohomology of a point in the case where $G$ is a cyclic group of odd order, expanding on the information provided by previous studies. Our methods center on the purely algebraic aspects of this matter,…

Let $f$ be a real- or circle-valued Morse function on a compact surface M having exactly $n>0$ critical points. Denote by $O$ the orbit of $f$ with respect to the right action of the group of diffeomorphisms of $M$. We show that the…

THEOREM. For every prime $p$ and each $n=2, 3, ... \infty$, there is an action of $G=\prod_{i=1}^{\infty}(Z/ pZ)$ on a two-dimensional compact metric space $X$ with $n$-dimensional orbit space. This theorem was proved in [DW: A.N.…

Using the group $G(1)$ of invertible elements and the maximal ideals $\mathfrak{m}_x$ of the commutative algebra $C(X)$ of real-valued functions on a compact regular space $X$, we define a Borel action of the algebra on the measure space…

We study operads in unstable global homotopy theory, which is the homotopy theory of spaces with compatible actions by all compact Lie groups. We show that the theory of these operads works remarkably well, as for example it is possible to…

By homotopy linear algebra we mean the study of linear functors between slices of the $\infty$-category of $\infty$-groupoids, subject to certain finiteness conditions. After some standard definitions and results, we assemble said slices…

If P is a dg-operad acting on a dg-algebra A via algebra homomorphisms, then P acts on the Hochschild complex of A. In the more general case when P is a dg-prop, we show that P still acts on the Hochschild complex, but only up to coherent…

Let $G$ be an infinite discrete group. A classifying space for proper actions of $G$ is a proper $G$-CW-complex $X$ such that the fixed point sets $X^H$ are contractible for all finite subgroups $H$ of $G$. In this paper we consider the…

It is well known that for a Hausdorff topological group $X$, the limits of convergent sequences in $X$ define a function denoted by $\lim$ from the set of all convergent sequences in $X$ to $X$. This notion has been modified by Connor and…

We study actions of linear algebraic groups on central simple algebras using algebro-geometric techniques. Suppose an algebraic group G acts on a central simple algebra A of degree n. We are interested in questions of the following type:…

The main goal of this paper is to obtain a formula for the T-equivariant Riemann-Roch number of certain G-spaces which are the finite dimensional models of certain infinite dimensional spaces with Hamiltonian LG-actions, here T is a maximal…

Let G be either a finite cyclic group of prime order or S^1. We find new relations between cohomology of a manifold (or a Poincare duality space) M with a G-action on it and cohomology of the fixed point set, M^G. Our main tool is the…

In this paper we define the notion of pullback lifting of a lifting crossed module over a crossed module morphism and interpret this notion in the category of group-groupoid actions as pullback action. Moreover, we give a criterion for the…

Let $G$ be a compact group, let $\mathcal{B}$ be a unital C$^*$-algebra, and let $(\mathcal{A},G,\alpha)$ be a free C$^*$-dynamical system, in the sense of Ellwood, with fixed point algebra $\mathcal{B}$. We prove that…

Associated to any manifold equipped with a closed form of degree >1 is an `L-infinity algebra of observables' which acts as a higher/homotopy analog of the Poisson algebra of functions on a symplectic manifold. In order to study Lie group…

Let $\mathcal{B}$ be a conformal net. We give the notion of a proper action of a finite hypergroup acting by vacuum preserving unital completely positive (so-called stochastic) maps, which generalizes the proper actions of finite groups.…

Let G/H be a strongly regular homogeneous space such that H is a Lie group of inner type. We show that G/H admits a proper action of a discrete non-virtually abelian subgroup of G if and only if G/H admits a proper action of a subgroup L of…
