In an extremely influential paper Mezard and Parisi put forward an analytic but non-rigorous approach called the cavity method for studying spin systems on the Bethe lattice, i.e., the random $d$-regular graph [Eur. Phys. J. B 20 (2001)…

We prove that a large class of Poincar\'e duality pairs admit rational models (in the sense of Sullivan) of a particularly nice form associated to some Poincar\'e duality CDGA. These models have applications in particular to the…

This is a research monograph on symplectic cohomology (disguised as an advanced graduate textbook), which provides a construction of this version of Hamiltonian Floer cohomology for cotangent bundles of closed manifolds. The focus is on the…

For any moduli space of stable representations of quivers, certain smooth varieties, compactifying projective space fibrations over the moduli space, are constructed. The boundary of this compactification is analyzed. Explicit formulas for…

Let G be a split semisimple algebraic group with trivial center. Let S be a compact oriented surface, with or without boundary. We define {\it positive} representations of the fundamental group of S to G(R), construct explicitly all…

We study the rational homotopy types of classifying spaces of automorphism groups of smooth simply connected manifolds of dimension at least five. We give dg Lie algebra models for the homotopy automorphisms and the block diffeomorphisms of…

Shipley and the author have given an algebraic model for free rational G-spectra for a compact Lie group G. In the present note we describe, at the level of homotopy categories, the algebraic models for induction, restriction and…

In this paper, we are interested in short homologically and homotopically independent loops based at the same point on Riemannian surfaces and metric graphs. First, we show that for every closed Riemannian surface of genus $g \geq 2$ and…

We show that Sullivan's model of rational differential forms on a simplicial set $X$ may be interpreted as a (kind of) $0|1$-dimensional supersymmetric quantum field theory over $X$, and, as a consequence, concordance classes of such…

We give a computational approach to theorem proving in homological algebra. This approach is based on computations in the free abelian category of an additive category $\mathbf{A}$. We show that the free abelian category is amenable to…

Let R be a subring of the rationals. We want to investigate self splitting R-modules G that is Ext_R(G,G)=0 holds and follow Schultz to call such modules splitters. Free modules and torsion-free cotorsion modules are classical examples for…

In this article, we extend Sullivan's PL de Rham theory to obtain simple algebraic models for the rational homotopy theory of parametrised spectra. This simplifies and complements the results of arXiv:1910.14608, which are based on…

We study the cohomology of the free loop space of $SU(n+1)/T^n$, the simplest example of a complete flag manifolds and an important homogeneous space. Through this enhanced analysis we reveal rich new combinatorial structures arising in the…

Let $M$ be a finitely generated module over a local ring $(R,\mathfrak{m})$. By $\mathcal{S}_j(M)$, we denote the $j$th symmetric power of $M$ ($j$th graded component of the symmetric algebra $\mathcal{S}_R(M)$). The purpose of this paper…

We study various ideals arising in the theory of system reliability. We use ideas from the theory of divisors, orientations and matroids on graphs to describe the minimal polyhedral cellular free resolutions of these ideals. In each case we…

Let $\Delta$ be simplicial complex and let $k[\Delta]$ denote the Stanley--Reisner ring corresponding to $\Delta$. Suppose that $k[\Delta]$ has a pure free resolution. Then we describe the Betti numbers and the Hilbert--Samuel multiplicity…

We compute the homotopy type of the space of proper d-dimensional submanifolds of ${\mathbb R}^n$ with a smooth version of the Fell topology. Our methods allow us to compute the homotopy type of the space of submanifolds with summable…

We give a finite dimensional approach to the Chas-Sullivan product on the free loop space of a manifold, orientable or not.

This is a survey article for the mathematical theory of Witten's Gauged Linear Sigma Model, as developed recently by the authors. Instead of developing the theory in the most general setting, in this paper we focus on the description of the…

We introduce a linearly ordered lattice $\mu(Grp)$ of torsion theories in simplicial groups. The torsion theories are defined where the torsion/torsion-free subcategories are given by the simplicial groups with bounded above/below Moore…
