We prove that the homotopy theory of Picard 2-categories is equivalent to that of stable 2-types.
This document is centered around a main idea: simplicial categories, by which we mean simplicial objects in the category of categories, can be treated as a two-fold categorical structure and their double category theory is homotopically…
We establish a connection between continuous K-theory and integral cohomology of rigid spaces. Given a rigid analytic space over a complete discretely valued field, its continuous K-groups vanish in degrees below the negative of the…
We combine Sullivan models from rational homotopy theory with Stasheff's $L_\infty$-algebras to describe a duality in string theory. Namely, what in string theory is known as topological T-duality between $K^0$-cocycles in type IIA string…
The Deligne conjecture (many times a theorem) endows Hochschild cochains of a linear category with the structure of an $E_2$-algebra, that is, of an algebra over the little 2-disks operad. In this paper, we prove the cyclic Deligne…
This paper contains both theoretical results and experimental data on the behavior of the dimensions of the cohomology spaces H^1(G,E_n), where Gamma is a lattice in SL(2,C) and E_n is one of the standard self-dual modules. In the case…
Evidence is given for the correctness of the Joyal-Riehl-Verity construction of the homotopy bicategory of the $(\infty, 2)$-category of $(\infty, 1)$-categories; in particular, it is shown that the analogous construction using complete…
We prove that the Novikov conjecture holds for any discrete group admitting an isometric and metrically proper action on an admissible Hilbert-Hadamard space. Admissible Hilbert-Hadamard spaces are a class of (possibly infinite-dimensional)…
Varagnolo and Vasserot conjectured an equivalence between the category O for CRDAHA's and a subcategory of an affine parabolic category O of type A. We prove this conjecture. As applications, we prove a conjecture of Rouquier on the…
The space of realizations of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra by first order differential operators is naturally isomorphic to H^1 with coefficients in the module of functions. The condition that a realization admits a finite-dimensional…
We study the Section Conjecture in \'etale homotopy theory for varieties over $\mathbb{R}$. We prove its pro-$2$ variant for equivariantly triangulable varieties. Examples include all smooth varieties as well as all (possibly singular)…
We formulate a "correct" version of the Quillen conjecture on linear group homology for certain arithmetic rings and provide evidence for the new conjecture. In this way we predict that the linear group homology has a direct summand looking…
\emph{Scalable spaces} are simply connected compact manifolds or finite complexes whose real cohomology algebra embeds in their algebra of (flat) differential forms. This is a rational homotopy invariant property and all scalable spaces are…
The classical honeycomb conjecture asserts that any partition of the plane into regions of equal area has perimeter at least that of the regular hexagonal honeycomb tiling. Pappus discusses this problem in his preface to Book V. This paper…
We prove an effective form of Wilkie's conjecture in the structure generated by restricted sub-Pfaffian functions: the number of rational points of height $H$ lying in the transcendental part of such a set grows no faster than some power of…
We obtain a rigidity phenomena of rational cohomology automorphisms of certain homogeneous spaces, in the presence of external cohomology classes arising from spaces with trivial cup product in rational cohomology algebra. We classify…
In this paper, the Conley conjecture, which were recently proved by Franks and Handel \cite{FrHa} (for surfaces of positive genus), Hingston \cite{Hi} (for tori) and Ginzburg \cite{Gi} (for closed symplectically aspherical manifolds), is…
Given a simplicial pair $(X,A)$, a simplicial complex $Y$, and a map $f:A \to Y$, does $f$ have an extension to $X$? We show that for a fixed $Y$, this question is algorithmically decidable for all $X$, $A$, and $f$ if $Y$ has the rational…
This paper is a continuation of a previous paper joint with Dennis Sullivan (arXiv:1704.04308). Working in the context of commutative differential graded algebras, we study the ideal of the cohomology classes which can be annihilated by…
Let $(X,\omega)$ be a closed symplectic manifold. A loop $\phi: S^1 \to \mathrm{Diff}(X)$ of diffeomorphisms of $X$ defines a fibration $\pi: P_{\phi} \to S^2$. By applying Gromov-Witten theory to moduli spaces of holomorphic sections of…
