We extend our previous results on generalized Dixmier-Douady theory to graded $C^*$-algebras, as means for explicit computations of the invariants arising for bundles of ungraded $C^*$-algebras. For a strongly self-absorbing $C^*$-algebra…
Category theory provides a means through which many far-ranging fields of mathematics can be related by their similar structure. In a paper by Robinson [2], this interconnectivity afforded by categorical perspectives allowed for the…
Twisting process for quantum linear spaces is defined. It consists in a particular kind of globally defined deformations on finitely generated algebras. Given a quantum space (A_1,A), a multiplicative cosimplicial quasicomplex C[A_1] in the…
J. Kock has previously defined a tangency quantum product on formal power series with coefficients in the cohomology ring of any smooth projective variety, and thus a ring that generalizes the quantum cohomology ring. We further generalize…
Let $X$ be a topological space. We consider certain generalized configuration spaces of points on $X$, obtained from the cartesian product $X^n$ by removing some intersections of diagonals. We give a systematic framework for studying the…
We describe the Macaulay2 package TateOnProducts and its capabilities, which include computing cohomology tables and Beilinson monads of sheaves on products of projective spaces and the derived category pushForward of a sheaf under a…
We prove a conjecture raised by M. Goresky and W. Pardon, concerning the range of validity of the perverse degree of Steenrod squares in intersection cohomology. This answer turns out of importance for the definition of characteristic…
For positive integers $m$ and $s$, let $\mathbf{m}_s$ stand for the $s$-th tuple $(m,\ldots,m)$. We show that, for large enough $s$, the higher topological complexity $TC_s$ of an even dimensional real projective space $RP^m$ is…
Let $V$ be an elementary abelian $2$-group and $X$ be a finite $V$-CW-complex. In this memoir we study two cochain complexes of modules over the mod2 Steenrod algebra $\mathrm{A}$, equipped with an action of $\mathrm{H}^{*}V$, the mod2…
The $n$-th symmetric product of a topological space $X$ is the orbit space of the natural action of the symmetric group $S_n$ on the product space $X^n$. In this paper, we compute the sequential topological complexities of (finite products…
We construct a simple topological invariant of certain 3-manifolds, including quotients of the 3-sphere by finite groups, based on the fact that the tangent bundle of an orientable 3-manifold is trivialisable. This invariant is strong…
We describe the action of the mod $2$ Steenrod algebra on the cohomology of various polyhedral products and related spaces. We carry this out for Davis-Januszkiewicz spaces and their generalizations, for moment-angle complexes as well as…
These notes accompany a lecture about the topology of symplectic (and other) quotients. The aim is two-fold: first to advertise the ease of computation in the symplectic category; and second to give an account of some new computations for…
We study the locus of smooth hypersurfaces inside the Hilbert scheme of a smooth projective complex variety. In the spirit of scanning, we construct a map to a continuous section space of a projective bundle, and show that it induces an…
We compute the integral homology and cohomology groups of configuration spaces of two distinct points on a given real projective space. The explicit answer is related to the (known multiplicative structure in the) integral cohomology---with…
In this paper we analyze some relationships between the topological complexity of a space $X$ and the category of $C_{\Delta_X},$ the homotopy cofibre of the diagonal map $\Delta_X:X\rightarrow X\times X.$ We establish the equality of the…
Twisted complex $K$-theory can be defined for a space $X$ equipped with a bundle of complex projective spaces, or, equivalently, with a bundle of C$^*$-algebras. Up to equivalence, the twisting corresponds to an element of $H^3(X;\Z)$. We…
We generalize some of the fundamental results of algebraic topology from topological spaces to \v{C}ech's closure spaces, also known as pretopological spaces. Using simplicial sets and cubical sets with connections, we define three distinct…
Given a unital action $\theta $ of an inverse monoid $S$ on an algebra $A$ over a filed $K$ we produce (co)homology spectral sequences which converge to the Hochschild (co)homology of the crossed product $A\rtimes_\theta S$ with values in a…
We use rewriting systems to spell out cup-products in the (twisted) cohomology groups of a product of surface groups. This allows us to detect a non-trivial obstruction bounding from below the effective topological complexity of an…
