We give a classification of very stable $G$-Higgs bundles in the generically regular Higgs field case for $G$ an arbitrary connected semisimple complex group. This extends the classification for $G=\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb C)$ and fixed point…

We show that cellular approximations of nilpotent Postnikov stages are always nilpotent Postnikov stages, in particular classifying spaces of nilpotent groups are turned into classifying spaces of nilpotent groups. We use a modified…

Gromov showed that for fixed, arbitrarily large C, any uniformly C-Lipschitz affine action of a random group in his graph model on a Hilbert space has a fixed point. We announce a theorem stating that more general affine actions of the same…

Given any pointed CW complex (X,x), it is well known that the fondamental group of X pointed at x is naturally isomorphic to the automorphism group of the functor which associates to a locally constant sheaf on X its fibre at x. The purpose…

We show that generic automorphisms of stable groups are supertight in a strong sense. In particular, we obtain the existence of supertight automorphisms. We also answer a question concerning the relationship between supertight automorphisms…

We will prove the relative homotopy principle for smooth maps with singularities of a given {\cal K}-invariant class with a mild condition. We next study a filtration of the group of homotopy self-equivalences of a given manifold P by…

Recently it was shown that, for every fixed k>1, given a finite simply connected simplicial complex X, the kth homotopy group \pi_k(X) can be computed in time polynomial in the number n of simplices of X. We prove that this problem is…

We show that both the $\infty$-category of $(\infty, \infty)$-categories with inductively defined equivalences, and with coinductively defined equivalences, satisfy universal properties with respect to weak enrichment in the sense of Gepner…

We give a homotopy classification of the global defects in ordered media, and explain it via the example of biaxial nematic liquid crystals, i.e., systems where the order parameter space is the quotient of the $3$-sphere $S^3$ by the…

Let $G$ be a compact Lie group acting effectively by isometries on a compact Riemannian manifold $M$ with nonempty fixed point set $Fix(M,G)$. We say that the action is \emph{fixed point homogeneous} if $G$ acts transitively on a normal…

We show that discrete and classical homotopy theories are equivalent after localizing at n-equivalences for any non-negative integer n. By constructing an explicit homotopy inverse to the graph nerve functor associating an n-fibrant cubical…

In this paper, we investigate the properties of the category of equivariant diagram spectra indexed on the category W_G of based G-spaces homeomorphic to finite G-CW-complexes for a compact Lie group G. Using the machinery of Mandell, May,…

We consider the moduli space ${\cal M}(G)$ of $G$-Higgs bundles over a compact Riemann surface $X$, where $G$ is a semisimple complex Lie group, and study the action of a finite group $\Gamma$ on ${\cal M}(G)$ induced by a holomorphic…

Building on work of Marta Bunge in the one-categorical case, we characterize when a given model category is Quillen equivalent to a presheaf category with the projective model structure. This involves introducing a notion of homotopy atoms,…

Let $f:X\to Y$ be a pointed map between connected CW-complexes. As a generalization of the evaluation subgroup $G_*(Y,X;f)$, we will define the {\it relaxed evaluation subgroup} ${\mathcal G}_*(Y,X;f)$ in the homotopy group $\pi_*(Y)$ of…

Let G be a compact Lie group and let X be an oriented Witt G-pseudomanifold. Using intersection cohomology it is possible to define Sign(G,X) in R(G), the G-signature of X. Let g be an element in G. Assuming that the inclusion of the fixed…

We completely classify fixed point subgroups in Torus Knot Groups, that is groups of the form $G_{p,q} = \langle x , y | x^p = y^q \rangle$. We not only give the isomorphism type, but also the explicit generators for the fixed point…

The topological fundamental group $\pi_{1}^{top}$ is a homotopy invariant finer than the usual fundamental group. It assigns to each space a quasitopological group and is discrete on spaces which admit universal covers. For an arbitrary…

Let $G$ be a finite group. Let $U_1,U_2,\dots$ be a sequence of orthogonal representations in which any irreducible representation of $\oplus_{n \geq 1} U_n$ has infinite multiplicity. Let $V_n=\oplus_{i=1}^n U_n$ and $S(V_n)$ denote the…
