This is the first of a series of papers which are devoted to a comprehensive theory of maps between orbifolds. In this paper, we define the maps in the more general context of orbispaces, and establish several basic results concerning the…

We study discrete group actions on coarse Poincare duality spaces, e.g. acyclic simplicial complexes which admit free cocompact group actions by Poincare duality groups. When G is an (n-1) dimensional duality group and X is a coarse…

We initiate the study of multiplicative structures on cones and show that cones of Floer continuation maps fit naturally in this framework. We apply this to give a new description of the multiplicative structure on Rabinowitz Floer homology…

This survey aims to provide a guide to the literature on topological 4-manifolds. Foundational theorems on 4-manifolds are stated, especially in the topological category. Precise references are given, with indications of the strategies…

We exhibit a Poisson module restoring a twisted Poincare duality between Poisson homology and cohomology for the polynomial algebra R=C[X_1,...,X_n] endowed with Poisson bracket arising from a uniparametrised quantum affine space. This…

Motivated by symplectic geometry, we give a detailed account of differential forms and currents on orbifolds with corners, the pull-back and push-forward operations, and their fundamental properties. We work within the formalism where the…

By using cobordism theoretic arguments similar to those in the literature on positive scalar curvature metrics we prove the existence of contact structures on 5-dimensional spin manifolds whose fundamental group is a group of odd order (not…

We provide homological foundations to establish conjectural homological projective dualities between 1) S^2 P^3 and the double cover of the projective 9-space branched along the symmetric determinantal quartic, and 2) S^2 P^4 and the double…

The results of the paper concern the topological structure of complete riemannian manifolds with cyclic holonomy groups and low-dimensional orientable complete flat manifolds. We also discuss related results such as the affine…

The main objects of this paper are torus orbifolds that have exactly two fixed points. We study the equivariant topological type of these orbifolds and consider when we can use the results of the paper [DKS] (arXiv:1809.03678) to compute…

In this paper we obtain the non-asymptotic inequalities of Poincare type between function and its weak gradient belonging the so-called Bilateral Grand Lebesgue Spaces over general metric measurable space. We also prove the sharpness of…

In this article, we prove the Hodge conjecture for a desingularization of the moduli space of rank 2, semi-stable, torsion-free sheaves with fixed odd degree determinant over a very general irreducible nodal curve of genus at least 2. We…

It is known that strongly involutive polyhedra are closely related to self-dual maps where the antipodal function acts as duality isomorphism. Such a family of polyhedra appears in different combinatorial, topological and geometric…

Inspired by the simple fact that a compact n-dimensional manifold-with-boundary which satisfies Poincar\'e-Lefschetz duality of dimension n has a boundary which itself satisfies Poincar\'e duality of dimension n, we show that the…

Analogues of JSJ decompositions were developed for Poincar\'e duality pairs in [19]. These decompositions depend only on the group. Our focus will be on describing the edge splittings of these decompositions more precisely. We use our…

Duality groups of Abelian gauge theories on four manifolds and their reduction to two dimensions are considered. The duality groups include elements that relate different space-times in addition to relating different gauge-coupling…

We study the topology of T-duality for pairs of U(1)-bundles and three-dimensional integral cohomology classes over orbispaces. In particular, our results apply to U(1)-spaces with finite isotropy. We generalize the theory developed in our…

This paper is a step towards the complete topological classification of {\Omega}-stable diffeomorphisms on an orientable closed surface, aiming to give necessary and sufficient conditions for two such diffeomorphisms to be topologically…

For Pontryagin's group duality in the setting of locally compact topological Abelian groups, the topology on the character group is the compact open topology. There exist at present two extensions of this theory to topological groups which…

This paper develops the study of Fox pairings of a group $G$ from the viewpoint of group cohomology. We compute some cohomology groups of Fox pairings of $G$, where $G$ admits a Poincar\'{e} duality group pair. We also suggest fundamental…
