We compute the topological simple structure set of closed manifolds which occur as total spaces of flat bundles over lens spaces S^l/(Z/p) with fiber an n-dimensjional torus T^n for an odd prime p and l greater or equal to 3, provided that…

This paper proposes a geometrisation of $\mathbb N$-manifolds of degree $n$ as $n$-fold vector bundles equipped with a (signed) $S_n$-symmetry. More precisely, it proves an equivalence between the categories of $[n]$-manifolds and the…

By studying the group of self homotopy equivalences of the localization (at a prime $p$ and/or zero) of some aspherical complexes, we show that, contrary to the case when the considered space is a nilpotent complex, $\mathcal{E}_{\#}^m…

Let $p$ be an odd prime, and fix integers $m$ and $n$ such that $0<m<n\leq (p-1)(p-2)$. We give a $p$-local homotopy decomposition for the loop space of the complex Stiefel manifold $W_{n,m}$. Similar decompositions are given for the loop…

For $n\geq 2$ we compute the homotopy groups of $(n-1)$-connected closed manifolds of dimension $(2n+1)$. Away from the finite set of primes dividing the order of the torsion subgroup in homology, the $p$-local homotopy groups of $M$ are…

We show that if $N$ is a closed manifold of dimension $n=4$ (resp. $n=5$) with $\pi_2(N) = 0$ (resp. $\pi_2(N)=\pi_3(N)=0$) that admits a metric of positive scalar curvature, then a finite cover $\hat N$ of $N$ is homotopy equivalent to…

We give a geometric realization of cluster categories of type $D_n$ using a polygon with $n$ vertices and one puncture in its center as a model. In this realization, the indecomposable objects of the cluster category correspond to certain…

We establish the stable homotopy classification of elliptic pseudodifferential operators on manifolds with corners and show that the set of elliptic operators modulo stable homotopy is isomorphic to the K-homology group of some stratified…

This paper presents explicit assumptions for the existence of interleaving homotopy equivalences of both Vietoris-Rips and Lesnick complexes associated to an inclusion of data sets. Consequences of these assumptions are investigated on the…

A standard problem in applied topology is how to discover topological invariants of data from a noisy point cloud that approximates it. We consider the case where a sample is drawn from a properly embedded C1-submanifold without boundary in…

We give an answer to the question given by T.Y.Kong in his article "Can 3-D Digital Topology be Based on Axiomatically Defined Digital Spaces?" In this article he asks the question, if so called "good pairs" of neighborhood relations can be…

A point of a digital space is called simple if it can be deleted from the space without altering topology. This paper introduces the notion simple set of points of a digital space. The definition is based on contractible spaces and…

We study the homotopy types of certain spaces closely related to the spaces of algebraic (rational) maps from the $m$ dimensional real projective space into the $n$ dimensional complex projective space for $2\leq m\leq 2n$ (we conjecture…

We give explicit formulas for the ranks of the third and fourth homotopy groups of all oriented closed simply-connected four manifolds in terms of their second Betti numbers. We also show that the rational homotopy type of these manifolds…

We prove that a space whose topological complexity equals 1 is homotopy equivalent to some odd-dimensional sphere. We prove a similar result, although not in complete generality, for spaces X whose higher topological complexity TC_n(X) is…

We formulate a conjecture that arithmetic locally symmetric manifolds have simple homotopy type, and prove it for the non-compact case. More precisely, we show that, for any symmetric space S of non-compact type without Euclidean de Rham…

We show that there are homotopy equivalences $h:N\to M$ between closed manifolds which are induced by cell-like maps $p:N\to X$ and $q:M\to X$ but which are not homotopic to homeomorphisms. The phenomenon is based on construction of…

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…

In this paper, we classify simply connected closed smooth $13$-dimensional manifolds whose cohomology ring is isomorphic to that of $\mb{CP}^3\times S^7$, up to diffeomorphism, homeomorphism, and homotopy equivalence. Furthermore, if such a…

In this paper we determine the homotopy types of the reduced suspension space of certain connected orientable closed smooth $5$-manifolds. As applications, we compute the reduced $K$-groups of $M$ and show that the suspension map between…
