We introduce two new characterizations of Meyer sets. A repetitive Delone set in $\R^d$ with finite local complexity is topologically conjugate to a Meyer set if and only if it has $d$ linearly independent topological eigenvalues, which is…
The goal of this paper is to generalize some of the existing toolkit of combinatorial algebraic topology in order to study the homology of abstract chain complexes. We define shellability of chain complexes in a similar way as for cell…
In this paper it is shown that multiplicative cohomology theories that are rationally even -- a technical condition that is often satisfied -- the Hopkins-Singer construction of generalized differential cohomology has a unital, graded…
We consider birational projective contractions f:X -> Y from a smooth symplectic variety X over the complex numbers. We first show that exceptional rational curves on X deform in a family of dimension at least 2n-2. Then we show that these…
We describe the singular cohomology ring, the K-ring of complex vector bundles, the Chow ring, and the Grothendieck ring of coherent sheaves of the total space of the fibre bundle with base space an irreducible nonsingular complete…
There is a well-known correspondence between coherent theories (and their interpretations) and coherent categories (resp. functors), hence the (2,1)-category $\mathbf{Coh_{\sim}}$ (of small coherent categories, coherent functors and all…
We investigate the triangle singularity $f=x^a+y^b+z^c$, or $S=k[x,y,z]/(f)$, attached to a weighted projective line $X$ given by the weight triple $(a,b,c)$. We investigate the stable category of vector bundles on $X$ obtained from the…
We prove that fairly general spaces of tilings of R^d are fiber bundles over the torus T^d, with totally disconnected fiber. This was conjectured (in a weaker form) in [W3], and proved in certain cases. In fact, we show that each such space…
In this paper, we show that two constructions form stacks: Firstly, as one varies the $\infty$-topos, $\mathcal{X}$, Lurie's homotopy theory of higher categories internal to $\mathcal{X}$ varies in such a way as to form a stack over the…
We initiate a novel formalism for computing correlation functions of trace operators in the planar N=4 SYM theory. The central object in our formalism is the spin vertex, which is the weak coupling analogy of the string vertex in string…
We apply spectral sequences to derive both an obstruction to the existence of $n$-fold prolongations and a topological classification. Prolongations have been used in the literature in an attempt to prove that every Engel structure on…
We classify fibrations by integral plane projective rational quartic curves whose generic fibre is regular but admits a non-smooth point that is a canonical divisor. These fibrations can only exist in characteristic two. The geometric…
We study the topology of complements of caustics of function singularities of low codimensions, in particular 1) complete the enumeration of connected components of the complements of caustics of {\em simple} (in the sense of V.Arnold)…
In this paper, we compare several functors which take simplicial categories or model categories to complete Segal spaces, which are particularly nice simplicial spaces which, like simplicial categories, can be considered to be models for…
We study the circumstances under which one can reconstruct a stack from its associated functor of isomorphism classes. This is possible surprisingly often: we show that many of the standard examples of moduli stacks are determined by their…
In this paper, we prove that certain spherical fibrations over certain CW-complexes are stably fibre homotopy equivalent to $\mm{TOP}$-spherical fibrations (see Definition 1,1). Applying this result, we get a sufficient condition for…
The aim of this paper is to construct singular equivalences between functor categories. As a special case, we show that there exists a singular equivalence arising from a cotilting module $T$, namely, the singularity category of $(^\perp…
We introduce a new higher categorical structure called a weakly globular n-fold category. This structure is based on iterated internal categories and on the notion of weak globularity. We identify a suitable class of pseudo-functors whose…
In this paper, we develop the theory of singular hermitian metrics on vector bundles. As an application, we give a structure theorem of a projective manifold $X$ with pseudo-effective tangent bundle: $X$ admits a smooth fibration $X \to Y$…
In a type-theoretic fibration category in the sense of Shulman (representing a dependent type theory with at least 1, Sigma, Pi, and identity types), we define the type of constant functions from A to B. This involves an infinite tower of…
