In this paper, we construct incomplete versions of the equivariant stable category; i.e., equivariant stabilization of the category of $G$-spaces with respect to incomplete systems of transfers encoded by an $N_\infty$ operad $\mathcal{O}$.…
We give a new proof of the equivalence between two of the main models for $(\infty,n)$-categories, namely the $n$-fold Segal spaces of Barwick and the $\Theta_{n}$-spaces of Rezk, by proving that these are algebras for the same monad on the…
We consider operations between two multiplicative, complex orientable cohomology theories. Under suitable hypotheses, we construct a map from unstable to stable operations, left-inverse to the usual map from stable to unstable operations.…
Given a programming language, can we give a monadic denotational semantics that is stable under language extension? Models containing only a single monad are not stable. Models based on type-and-effect systems, in which there is a monad for…
We prove a homological stability theorem for families of discrete groups (e.g. mapping class groups, automorphism groups of free groups, braid groups) with coefficients in a sequence of irreducible algebraic representations of arithmetic…
We prove an inverse theorem for the Gowers $U^2$-norm for maps $G\to\mathcal M$ from an countable, discrete, amenable group $G$ into a von Neumann algebra $\mathcal M$ equipped with an ultraweakly lower semi-continuous, unitarily invariant…
We prove a $Z$-set unknotting theorem for Nobeling spaces. This generalizes a result obtained by S. Ageev for a restricted class of $Z$-sets. The theorem is proved for a certain model of Nobeling spaces.
We study the class of acts with embeddings as an abstract elementary class. We show that the class is always stable and show that superstability in the class is characterized algebraically via weakly noetherian monoids. The study of these…
We introduce a symmetric operad $\square p$ ("box-op") which describes a certain calculus of rectangular labeled ``boxes''. Algebras over $\square p$, which we call box operads, have appeared under the name of fc multicategories in work by…
The goal of this paper is to set up an obstruction theory in the context of algebras over an operad and in the framework of differential graded modules over a field. Precisely, the problem we consider is the following: Suppose given two…
We give a simple proof of the cobordism invariance of the index of an elliptic operator. The proof is based on a study of a Witten-type deformation of an extension of the operator to a complete Riemannian manifold. One of the advantages of…
We introduce a new type of operad-like structure called a P-operad, which depends on the choice of some collection of posets P, and which is governed by chains in posets of P. We introduce several examples of such structures which are…
There is an axiomatic treatment of Morley rank in groups, due to Borovik and Poizat. These axioms form the basis of the algebraic treatment of groups of finite Morley rank which is common today. There are, however, ranked structures, i.e.…
We introduce unary operadic 2-categories as a framework for operadic Grothendieck construction for categorical $\mathbb{O}$-operads, $\mathbb{O}$ being a unary operadic category. The construction is a fully faithful functor…
We define a generalization of (coloured) operads based on double lax functors and we construct a model structure on the associated category of generalized simplicial (coloured) operads. In particular, we obtain a model structure on the…
Modular operads are an extension of operads. In the same way that operads, as dendroidal sets, can be considered as presheaves over the category of trees, so can modular operads be considered as presheaves over a category of graphs. This…
In this paper, I introduce a new generalization of the concept of an operad, further generalizing the concept of an opetope introduced by Baez and Dolan, who used this for the definition of their version of non-strict $n$-categories.…
The paper investigates the stability properties of restrictions of irreducible representations of the symmetric group to the hyperoctahedral subgroup. A stability result is obtained, analogous to the classical Murnaghan theorem on the…
Motivated by applications to spaces of embeddings and automorphisms of manifolds, we consider a tower of $\infty$-categories of truncated right-modules over a unital $\infty$-operad $\mathcal{O}$. We study monoidality and naturality…
Algebraic operads provide a powerful tool to understand the homotopy theory of the types of (co)algebras they encode. So far, the principal results and methods that this theory provides were only available in characteristic zero. The reason…
