If $K$ is a compact, connected, simply connected Lie group, its based loop group $\Omega K$ is endowed with a Hamiltonian $S^1 \times T$ action, where $T$ is a maximal torus of $K$. Atiyah and Pressley examined the image of $\Omega K$ under…

The mod p cohomology of a space comes with an action of the Steenrod Algebra. L. Schwartz [A propos de la conjecture de non realisation due a N. Kuhn, Invent. Math. 134, No 1, (1998) 211--227] proved a conjecture due to N. Kuhn [On…

In this article we give an expository account of the holomorphic motion theorem based on work of M\`a\~n\'e-Sad-Sullivan, Bers-Royden, and Chirka. After proving this theorem, we show that tangent vectors to holomorphic motions have…

The cyclotomic trace of B\"okstedt-Hsiang-Madsen, the subject of B\"okstedt's lecture at the congress in Kyoto, is a map of pro-abelian groups K_*(A) -> TR_*^.(A;p) from Quillen's algebraic K-theory to a topological refinement of Connes'…

It is known that the truncated Brown--Peterson spectra can be equipped with a certain nice algebra structure, by the work of J. Hahn and D. Wilson, and these ring spectra can be viewed as rings of integers of local fields in chromatic…

Lada introduced strong homotopy algebras to describe the structures on a deformation retract of an algebra in topological spaces. However, there is no satisfactory general definition of a morphism of strong homotopy (s.h.) algebras. Given a…

We examine functorial and homotopy properties of the exotic characteristic homomorphism in the category of Lie algebroids which was lastly obtained by the authors in [4]. This homomorphism depends on a triple (A,B,$\nabla$) where B…

We conjecture that any perverse sheaf on a compact aspherical K\"ahler manifold has non-negative Euler characteristic. This extends the Singer-Hopf conjecture in the K\"ahler setting. We verify the stronger conjecture when the manifold X…

We introduce here a method which uses etale neighborhoods to extend results from smooth semi-local rings to arbitrary semi-local rings A by passing to the henselization of a smooth presentation of A. The technique is used to show that etale…

The Isomorphism Conjecture is a conceptional approach towards a calculation of the algebraic K-theory of a group ring RG, where G is an infinite group. In this paper we prove the conjecture in dimensions n<2 for fundamental groups of closed…

In this paper we prove a generalisation of Schlenk's theorem about the existence of contractible periodic Reeb orbits on stable, displaceable hypersurfaces in symplectically aspherical, geometrically bounded, symplectic manifolds, to a…

We introduce a family of twisted $K(n)$-local theories that behave analogous to twisted K-theory. Let $R_n= E_n^{hS\mathbb G_n}$, the homotopy fixed point spectrum under the action of the subgroup $S\mathbb G_n$ of the Morava stabilizer…

A strong version of the quantization conjecture of Guillemin and Sternberg is proved. For a reductive group action on a smooth, compact, polarized variety (X,L), the cohomologies of L over the GIT quotient X // G equal the invariant part of…

We consider mappings between Carnot groups. In this paper, which is a continuation of "Pansu pullback and rigidity of mappings between Carnot groups" (arXiv:2004.09271), we focus on Carnot groups which are nonrigid in the sense of…

We discuss two extensions of results conjectured by Nick Kuhn about the non-realization of unstable algebras as the mod $p$ singular cohomology of a space, for $p$ a prime. The first extends and refines earlier work of the second and fourth…

Ren\'e Thom's remarkable and far-reaching concept of transversality has found numerous powerful applications. Most importantly, it allowed Thom to develop cobordism theory, which led to a piercing insight into the topology of smooth…

In view of the Segal construction each category with a coherent operation gives rise to a cohomology theory. Similarly each open stable differential relation $R$ imposed on smooth maps of manifolds determines cohomology theories $k^*$ and…

In this paper, we discuss a rigidity property for holomorphic disks in Teichm\"uller space. In fact, we give a refinement of Tanigawa's rigidity theorem. We will also treat the rigidity property of holomorphic disks for complex manifolds.…

We define equivariant projective unitary stable bundles as the appropriate twists when defining K-theory as sections of bundles with fibers the space of Fredholm operators over a Hilbert space. We construct universal equivariant projective…

This master's thesis contains an introduction to $A_\infty$-algebras and homological perturbation theory. We then discuss the formality of compact K\"ahler manifolds and present a direct proof of a homotopy transfer principle of…
