We determine a family of functors from a poset to abelian groups such that the higher direct limits vanish on them. This is done by first characterizing the projective functors. Then a spectral sequence arising from the grading of the poset…
A description of the derived functors of Lie functors for free abelian groups is given.
Our goal is to develop a limit approach for a class of problems in additive combinatorics that is analogous to the limit theory of dense graph sequences. We introduce metric, convergence and limit objects for functions on groups and for…
We show that free-by-free groups satisfying a homological criterion, which we call excessive homology, are incoherent. This class is large in nature, including many examples of hyperbolic and non-hyperbolic free-by-free groups. We apply…
Motivated by the definition of Freiman homomorphism, we explore the possibilities of formulating some basic notions and techniques of additive combinatorics in a categorical language. We show that additive sets and Freiman homomorphisms…
We establish a central limit theorem (CLT) for families of products of $\epsilon$-independent random variables. We utilize graphon limits to encode the evolution of independence and characterize the limiting distribution. Our framework…
Generalizing a definition of homotopy fiber products of model categories, we give a definition of the homotopy limit of a diagram of left Quillen functors between model categories. As has been previously shown for homotopy fiber products,…
The color code is both an interesting example of an exactly solved topologically ordered phase of matter and also among the most promising candidate models to realize fault-tolerant quantum computation with minimal resource overhead. The…
It has been common wisdom among mathematicians that Extended Topological Field Theory in dimensions higher than two is naturally formulated in terms of n-categories with n> 1. Recently the physical meaning of these higher categorical…
This paper is devoted to the study of algebraic structures leading to link homology theories. The originally used structures of Frobenius algebra and/or TQFT are modified in two directions. First, we refine 2-dimensional cobordisms by…
A category N of labeled (oriented) trivalent graphs (nets) or ribbon graphs is extended by new generators called fusing, braiding, twist and switch with relations which can be called Moore--Seiberg relations. A functor to N is constructed…
Let F be the (Thompson's) group < x_0, x_1 | [x_0x_1^-1, x_0^-ix_1 x_0^i], i=1,2 >. We study the structure of F-limit groups. Let G_n= < y_1,..., y_m, x_0,x_1 | [x_0x_1^-1,x_0^-1x_1x_0],[x_0x_1^-1,x_0^-2x_1x_0^2], y_j^-1g_j,n(x_0,x_1),…
We introduce and develop the notion of *displayed categories*. A displayed category over a category C is equivalent to "a category D and functor F : D --> C", but instead of having a single collection of "objects of D" with a map to the…
Examples of non-trivial higher string topology operations have been regrettably rare in the literature. In this paper, working in the context of string topology of classifying spaces, we provide explicit calculations of a wealth of…
These are extended notes for a series of lectures on Hall algebras given at the CRM Barcelona in February 2015. The basic idea of the theory of Hall algebras is that the collection of flags in an exact category encodes an associative…
In this paper we prove another pairing theorem for bordered Floer homology. Unlike the original pairing theorem, this one is stated in terms of homomorphisms, not tensor products. The present formulation is closer in spirit to the usual…
Fractional calculus is a generalization of classical theories of integration and differentiation to arbitrary order (i.e., real or complex numbers). In the last two decades, this new mathematical modeling approach has been widely used to…
$BF$ theories defined over non trivial line bundles are studied. It is shown that such theories describe a realization of a non trivial higher order bundle. The partition function differs from the usual one -in terms of the Ray Singer…
We review several known categorification procedures, and introduce a functorial categorification of group extensions with applications to non-abelian group cohomology. Categorification of acyclic models and of topological spaces are briefly…
Torsors under affine groups are generalized in the super context by super-torsors under affine super-groups. We investigate those super-torsors by using Hopf-algebra language and techniques. It is explicitly shown, under suitable…
