We give a complete classification of conjugacy stable parabolic subgroups of Artin-Tits groups of spherical type. This answers a question posed by Ivan Marin and generalizes a theorem obtained by Juan Gonz\'alez-Meneses in the specific case…
We consider the Birman-Hilden inclusion $\varphi\colon\mathfrak{Br}_{2g+1}\to\Gamma_{g,1}$ of the braid group into the mapping class group of an orientable surface with boundary, and prove that $\varphi$ is stably trivial in homology with…
Motivated by gauge theory on manifolds with exceptional holonomy, we construct examples of stable bundles on K3 surfaces that are invariant under two involutions: one is holomorphic; and the other is anti-holomorphic. These bundles are…
We construct braided versions $sV_{br}$ of the Brin-Thompson groups $sV$ and prove that they are of type $F_\infty$. The proof involves showing that the matching complexes of colored arcs on surfaces are highly connected.
Hermitian bundle gerbes with connection are geometric objects for which a notion of surface holonomy can be defined for closed oriented surfaces. We systematically introduce bundle gerbes by closing the pre-stack of trivial bundle gerbes…
Homological stability for unordered configuration spaces of connected manifolds was discovered by Th. Church and extended by O. Randal-Williams and B. Knudsen: $H_i(C_k(M);\mathbb{Q})$ is constant for $k\geq f(i)$. We characterize the…
A standard way of approximating or discretizing a metric space is by taking its Rips complexes. These approximations for all parameters are often bound together into a filtration, to which we apply the fundamental group or the first…
We describe partial semi-simplicial resolutions of moduli spaces of surfaces with tangential structure. This allows us to prove a homological stability theorem for these moduli spaces, which often improves the known stability ranges and…
We prove a monotonicity result at specific points for the Horizontal Perimeter for a class of surfaces in the Heisenberg group.
We propose a notion of stability for capillary hypersurfaces with constant higher order mean curvature and we generalize some results of the classical stability theory for CMC capillary hypersurfaces.
We improve, by a factor of 2, known homology stability ranges for the integral homology of symplectic groups over commutative local rings with infinite residue field and show that the obstruction to further stability is bounded below by…
We show that the homology of modules for Hurwitz spaces stabilizes and compute its stable value. As one consequence, we compute the moments of Selmer groups in quadratic twist families of abelian varieties over suitably large function…
We prove a stability version of Harper's cube vertex isoperimetric inequality, showing that subsets of the cube with vertex boundary close to the minimum possible are close to (generalised) Hamming balls. Furthermore, we obtain a local…
We show that, for any number of components, the group of braids up to link-homotopy is torsion-free. This generalizes a result of Humphries up to six components, and provides an explicit solution to a question posed by Lin and addressed by…
In the context of holomorphic families of ${\mathbb P}^k$ endomorphisms, we show that various notions of stability are equivalent. This allows us to both extend and simplify the architecture of the proof of certain results of [BBD]
We introduce and study the question how can stable birational types vary in a smooth proper family. Our starting point is the specialization for stable birational types of Nicaise and the author and our emphasis is on stable birational…
In this paper, we study sequences of topological spaces called "vertical configuration spaces" of points in Euclidean space. We apply the theory of FI$_G$-modules, and results of Bianchi-Kranhold, to show that their (co)homology groups are…
We study the moduli spaces which classify smooth surfaces along with a complex line bundle. There are homological stability and Madsen--Weiss type results for these spaces (mostly due to Cohen and Madsen), and we discuss the cohomological…
Let M_g^n be the moduli space of Riemann surfaces of genus g with n labeled marked points. We prove that, for g \geq 2, the cohomology groups {H^i(M_g^n;Q)}_{n=1}^{\infty} form a sequence of Sn representations which is representation stable…
Let $f: X \to Y$ be a regular covering of a surface $Y$ of finite type with nonempty boundary, with finitely-generated (possibly infinite) deck group $G$. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for an integral homology class on $X$ to…
