Starting categorically, we give simple and precise models of equivariant classifying spaces. We need these models for work in progress in equivariant infinite loop space theory and equivariant algebraic K-theory, but the models are of…

For associative rings with anti-involution several homology theories exists, for instance reflexive homology as studied by Graves and involutive Hochschild homology defined by Fern\`andez-Val\`encia and Giansiracusa. We prove that the…

Given a commutative ring $R$, a $\pi_1$-$R$-equivalence is a continuous map of spaces inducing an isomorphism on fundamental groups and an $R$-homology equivalence between universal covers. When $R$ is an algebraically closed field, Raptis…

We describe various equivalent ways of associating to an orbifold, or more generally a higher \'etale differentiable stack, a weak homotopy type. Some of these ways extend to arbitrary higher stacks on the site of smooth manifolds, and we…

In this paper, for a finite group, we discuss a method for calculating equivariant homology with constant coefficients. We apply it to completely calculate the geometric fixed points of the equivariant spectrum representing equivariant…

The cohomology of the configuration space of n points in R^3 admits a symmetric group action and has been shown to be isomorphic to the regular representation. One way to prove this is by defining an S^1-action whose fixed point set is the…

We compute the equivariant $KO$-homology of the classifying space for proper actions of $\textrm{SL}_3(\mathbb{Z})$ and $\textrm{GL}_3(\mathbb{Z})$. We also compute the Bredon homology and equivariant $K$-homology of the classifying spaces…

We define the orbit category for transitive topological groupoids and their equivariant CW-complexes. By using these constructions we define equivariant Bredon homology and cohomology for actions of transitive topological groupoids. We show…

We prove that group homology of the diffeomorphism group of $\#^g S^n \times S^n$ as a discrete group is independent of $g$ in a range, provided that $n>2$. This answers the high dimensional version of a question posed by Morita about…

For a $C^{*}$-category with a strict $G$-action we construct examples of equivariant coarse homology theories. To this end we first introduce versions of Roe categories of objects in $C^{*}$-categories which are controlled over bornological…

Conjugation spaces are equipped with an involution such that the fixed points have the same mod 2 cohomology (as a graded vector space, a ring, and even an unstable algebra) but with all degrees divided by 2, generalizing the classical…

A characterization of simplicial objects in categories with finite products obtained by the reduced bar construction is given. The condition that characterizes such simplicial objects is a strictification of Segal's condition guaranteeing…

For a spectrum $X$ represented by a special $\Gamma$-space $Y$ via the Segal machine, we give an elementary formula computing the homology groups of $X$ in terms of $Y$. Both the result and the method of proof are essentially due to T.…

In order to classify concordance classes of codimension 2 embeddings in a manifold M, we need to determine the complement of such an embedding. These complements are spaces over M well defined up to some homology equivalence. We construct a…

Using Nadler's Geometric Satake Equivalence for real reductive groups, we obtain a description of the equivariant homology of the loop space of splitting-rank symmetric spaces in terms of the relative dual group of the space. The…

We study the space of oriented genus g subsurfaces of a fixed manifold M, and in particular its homological properties. We construct a "scanning map" which compares this space to the space of sections of a certain fibre bundle over M…

We construct an equivariant version of discrete Morse theory for simplicial complexes endowed with group actions. The key ingredient is a 2-categorical criterion for making acyclic partial matchings on the quotient space compatible with an…

We determine when an antiinvolution on an adjoint semisimple linear algebraic group extends to an antiinvolution on a $J$-irreducible monoid. Using this information, we study a special class of compactifications of symmetric varieties.…

This submission is a PhD dissertation. It constitutes the summary of the author's work concerning the relations between cohomology rings of algebraic varieties and rings of functions on zero schemes and fixed point schemes. It includes the…

Motivated by the operad built from moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces, we consider a general class of operads in the category of spaces that satisfy certain homological stability conditions. We prove that such operads are infinite loop space…
