We consider the moduli space $\Hh_{g,n}$ of $n$-pointed smooth hyperelliptic curves of genus $g$. In order to get cohomological information we wish to make $\s_n$-equivariant counts of the numbers of points defined over finite fields of…

Greenlees has conjectured that the rational stable equivariant homotopy category of a compact Lie group always has an algebraic model. Based on this idea, we show that the category of rational local systems on a connected finite loop space…

A gauge group is the topological group of automorphisms of a principal bundle. We compute the integral cohomology ring of the classifying spaces of gauge groups of principal U(n)-bundles over the 2-sphere by generalizing the operation for…

After 1-point compactification, the collection of all unordered configuration spaces of a manifold admits a commutative multiplication by superposition of configurations. We explain a simple (derived) presentation for this commutative…

We consider semi-free Hamiltonian $S^1$-manifolds of dimension six and establish when the equivariant cohomology and data on the fixed point set determine the isomorphism type. Gonzales listed conditions under which the isomorphism type of…

Let $G$ be the classical group, and let Hom$(\mathbb{Z}^m,G)$ denote the space of commuting $m$-tuples in $G$. Baird proved that the cohomology of Hom$(\mathbb{Z}^m,G)$ is identified with a certain ring of invariants of the Weyl group of…

We extend Ravenel-Wilson Hopf ring techniques to $C_2$-equivariant homotopy theory. Our main application and motivation is a computation of the $RO(C_2)$-graded homology of $C_2$-equivariant Eilenberg-MacLane spaces. The result we obtain…

In this article we describe the $G\times G$-equivariant $K$-ring of $X$, where $X$ is a regular compactification of a connected complex reductive algebraic group $G$. Furthermore, in the case when $G$ is a semisimple group of adjoint type,…

We study anti-holomorphic involutions of the moduli space of principal $G$-Higgs bundles over a compact Riemann surface $X$, where $G$ is a complex semisimple Lie group. These involutions are defined by fixing anti-holomorphic involutions…

We consider mapping class groups \Gamma(M) = pi_0 Diff(M fix \partial M) of smooth compact simply connected oriented 4-manifolds M bounded by a collection of 3-spheres. We show that if M contains CP^2 (with either orientation) as a…

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…

We construct Morse homology groups associated with any regular function on a smooth complex algebraic variety, allowing singular and non-compact critical loci. These groups are generated by critical points of a certain large pertubation of…

Here we shall consider the topology and dynamics associated to a wide class of matchbox manifolds, including a large selection of tiling spaces and all minimal matchbox manifolds of dimension one. For such spaces we introduce topological…

We give a new construction of the equivariant $K$-theory of group actions (cf. Barwick et al.), producing an infinite loop $G$-space for each Waldhausen category with $G$-action, for a finite group $G$. On the category $R(X)$ of retractive…

In the present paper we determine for each parallelizable smooth compact manifold $M$ the cohomology spaces $H^2(V_M,\bar\Omega^p_M)$ of the Lie algebra $V_M$ of smooth vector fields on $M$ with values in the module $\bar\Omega^p_M =…

In her PhD thesis Milin developed an equivariant version of the contact homology groups constructed by Eliashberg, Kim and Polterovich and used it to prove an equivariant contact non-squeezing theorem. In this article we re-obtain the same…

We consider \Gamma-equivariant principal G-bundles over proper \Gamma-CW-complexes with prescribed family of local representations. We construct and analyze their classifying spaces for locally compact, second countable topological groups…

For an orbifold M we define a homology group, called t-singular homology group t-H_q(M), which depends not only on the topological structure of the underlying space of M, but also on the orbifold structure of M. We prove that it is a…

Let G be a discrete group. We give methods to compute for a generalized (co-)homology theory its values on the Borel construction (EG x X)/G of a proper G-CW-complex X satisfying certain finiteness conditions. In particular we give formulas…

Let M be a manifold carrying the action of a Lie group G, and A a Lie algebroid on M equipped with a compatible infinitesimal G-action. Out of these data we construct an equivariant Lie algebroid cohomology and prove for compact G a related…
