We compute the cohomology of the subalgebra $A^{C_2}(1)$ of the $C_2$-equivariant Steenrod algebra $A^{C_2}$. This serves as the input to the $C_2$-equivariant Adams spectral sequence converging to the $RO(C_2)$-graded homotopy groups of an…
We study in this article the concept of algebra up to homotopy for a structure defined by two operations . Important examples of such structure are those of pre-Gerstenhaber and pre-Poisson algebras. Given a structure of pre-commutative and…
We prove the Verlinde conjecture in the following general form: Let V be a simple vertex operator algebra satisfying the following conditions: (i) The homogeneous subspaces of V of weights less than 0 are 0, the homogeneous subspace of V of…
We prove new structural results for the rational homotopy type of the classifying space $B\operatorname{aut}(X)$ of fibrations with fiber a simply connected finite CW-complex $X$. We first study nilpotent covers of $B\operatorname{aut}(X)$…
Connectivity is a homotopy invariant property of separable C*-algebras which has three notable consequences: absence of nontrivial projections, quasidiagonality and a more geometric realization of KK-theory for nuclear C*-algebras using…
In this article, we give a construction of the (un-)stable motivic homotopy category of an algebraic stack in the spirit of Morel-Voevodsky. We prove that this new construction agrees with the stable motivic homotopy category defined by…
In this paper we propose to use a relative variant of the notion of the \'{e}tale homotopy type of an algebraic variety in order to study the existence of rational points on it. In particular, we use an appropriate notion of homotopy fixed…
This note discusses the cyclic cohomology of a left Hopf algebroid ($\times_A$-Hopf algebra) with coefficients in a right module-left comodule, defined using a straightforward generalisation of the original operators given by Connes and…
We construct a quantum Dolbeault double complex $\oplus_{p,q}\Omega^{p,q}$ on the quantum plane $\Bbb C_q^2$. This solves the long-standing problem that the standard differential calculus on the quantum plane is not a $*$-calculus, by…
We address the general classification problem of all stable associative product structures in the complex cobordism theory. We show how to reduce this problem to the algebraic one in terms of the Hopf algebra $S$ (the Landweber-Novikov…
The solution of Deligne's conjecture on Hochschild cochains and the formality of the operad of little disks provide us with a natural homotopy Gerstenhaber algebra structure on the Hochschild cochains of an associative algebra. In this…
We show that C_2-cofiniteness is enough to prove a modular invariance property of vertex operator algebras without assuming the semisimplicity of Zhu algebra. For example, if a VOA V=\oplus_{m=0}^{\infty}V_m is C_2-cofinite, then the space…
For a finite-dimensional Frobenius $k$-algebra $R$ with the Nakayama automorphism $\nu$ we define an algebra ${\rm HH}^*(R)^{\nu\uparrow}$. If the order of $\nu$ is not divisible by the characteristic of $k$, this algebra is isomorphic to…
We define a notion of smooth cohomology for $ C^* $-algebras which admit a faithful trace. We show that if $ \A\subseteq B(\h) $ is a $ C^* $-algebra with a faithful normal trace $ \tau $ on the ultra-weak closure $ \bar{\A} $ of $…
We show that a graded commutative algebra A with any square zero odd differential operator is a natural generalization of a Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra. While such an operator of order 2 defines a Gerstenhaber (Lie) algebra structure on A,…
Given a rack Q and a ring A, one can construct a Yang-Baxter operator c_Q: V tensor V --> V tensor V on the free A-module V = AQ by setting c_Q(x tensor y) = y tensor x^y for all x,y in Q. In answer to a question initiated by D.N. Yetter…
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…
Gromov and Lawson developed a codimension 2 index obstruction to positive scalar curvature for a closed spin manifold M, later refined by Hanke, Pape and Schick. Kubota has shown that also this obstruction can be obtained from the Rosenberg…
We define a general notion of abstract double Lie algebroid. We show (1) that the double Lie algebroid of a double Lie groupoid is a double Lie algebroid in this sense; (2) that the double cotangent constructed from Lie algebroid structures…
We study actions of ``compact quantum groups'' on ``finite quantum spaces''. According to Woronowicz and to general $\c^*$-algebra philosophy these correspond to certain coactions $v:A\to A\otimes H$. Here $A$ is a finite dimensional…
