In this paper we study families of representations of the outer automorphism groups indexed on a collection of finite groups $\mathcal{U}$. We encode this large amount of data into a convenient abelian category $\mathcal{A}\mathcal{U}$…
We construct analogues of FI-modules where the role of the symmetric group is played by the general linear groups and the symplectic groups over finite rings and prove basic structural properties such as Noetherianity. Applications include…
We prove homological stability for a twisted version of the Houghton groups and their multidimensional analogues. Based on this, we can describe the homology of the Houghton groups and that of their multidimensional analogues over constant…
In this paper we study homological stability for spaces ${\rm Hom}(\mathbb{Z}^n,G)$ of pairwise commuting $n$-tuples in a Lie group $G$. We prove that for each $n\geqslant 1$, these spaces satisfy rational homological stability as $G$…
We show, finitely generated rational $\mathsf{VIC}_{\mathbb Q}$-modules and $\mathsf{SI}_{\mathbb Q}$-modules are uniformly representation stable and all their submodules are finitely generated. We use this to prove two conjectures of…
We prove a representation stability result for the codimension-one cohomology of the level three congruence subgroup of $\mathbf{SL}_n(\mathbb{Z})$. This is a special case of a question of Church-Farb-Putman which we make more precise. Our…
The purpose of this paper is to describe a method for computing homotopy groups of the space of $\alpha$-stable representations of a quiver with fixed dimension vector and stability parameter $\alpha$. The main result is that the homotopy…
We consider for two based graphs $G$ and $H$ the sequence of graphs $G_k$ given by the wedge sum of $G$ and $k$ copies of $H$. These graphs have an action of the symmetric group $\Sigma_k$ by permuting the $H$-summands. We show that the…
This paper studies representation stability in the sense of Church and Farb for representations of the symmetric group $S_n$ on the cohomology of the configuration space of $n$ ordered points in $\mathbf{R}^d$. This cohomology is known to…
In this paper we revisit the cohomology groups of the moduli space of $n$-pointed curves of genus zero using the FI-module perspective introduced by Church-Ellenberg-Farb. We recover known results about the corresponding representations of…
Consider the configuration spaces of manifold (closed or open). An influential theorem of McDuff and Segal shows that the (co)homology of unordered configuration spaces of open manifold is independent of number of configuration points in a…
In this article we introduce the space of configurations of commuting elements in a topological group and show that it satisfies rational homological stability for the sequences of unitary, special unitary and symplectic groups. We also…
Motivated by the study of the interrelation between functorial and algebraic quantum field theory, we point out that on any locally trivial bundle of compact groups, representations up to homotopy are enough to separate points by means of…
We prove homological stability for both general linear groups of modules over a ring with finite stable rank and unitary groups of quadratic modules over a ring with finite unitary stable rank. In particular, we do not assume the modules…
We prove a general representation stability result for polynomial coefficient systems which lets us prove representation stability and secondary homological stability for many families of groups with polynomial coefficients. This gives two…
For any smooth compact manifold $W$ of dimension at least two we prove that the classifying spaces of its group of diffeomorphisms which fix a set of $k$ points or $k$ embedded disks (up to permutation) satisfy homology stability. The same…
The configuration space of k points on a manifold carries an action of its diffeomorphism group. The homotopy quotient of this action is equivalent to the classifying space of diffeomorphisms of a punctured manifold, and therefore admits…
Using a result of Gan and Li on FI-hyperhomology and a semi-simplicial resolution of configuration spaces due to Randal-Williams, we establish an improved representation stability stable range for configuration spaces of distinct ordered…
We study representation stability in the sense of Church and Farb of sequences of cohomology groups of complements of arrangements of linear subspaces in real and complex space as $S_n$-modules. We consider arrangement of linear subspaces…
Recently, Church-Miller-Nagpal-Reinhold [arXiv:1706.03845] obtained linear stable ranges for the integral cohomology of ordered configuration spaces, in the sense of representation stability. We note that the constants in these linear…
