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…
In this short work we prove that the Hilbert Grassmannians endowed with the weak topology are models for the classifying spaces of the unitary groups. As application of this result one can use Hilbert Grassmannians for the presentation of…
Let $X$ be a differentiable manifold endowed with a transitive action $\alpha:A\times X\longrightarrow X$ of a Lie group $A$. Let $K$ be a Lie group. Under suitable technical assumptions, we give explicit classification theorems, in terms…
We use representation theory to construct spaces of matrices of constant rank. These spaces are parametrized by the natural representation of the general linear group or the symplectic group. We present variants of this idea, with more…
We consider the space of $n$-tuples of pairwise commuting elements in the Lie algebra of $U(m)$. We relate its one-point compactification to the subquotients of certain rank filtrations of connective complex $K$-theory. We also describe the…
We generalize several comparison results between algebraic, semi-topological and topological K-theories to the equivariant case with respect to a finite group.
Uniformly finite homology is a coarse invariant for metric spaces; in particular, it is a quasi-isometry invariant for finitely generated groups. In this article, we study uniformly finite homology of finitely generated amenable groups and…
A balanced configuration of points on the sphere $S^2$ is a (finite) set of points which are in equilibrium if they act on each other according any force law dependent only on the distance between two points. The configuration is…
We define a new homology theory we call symbol homology by using decorated moduli spaces of Whitney polygons. By decorating different types of moduli spaces we obtain different flavors of this homology theory together with morphisms between…
We define a numerical quasi-isometry invariant of a finitely generated group, whose values parametrize the difference between the group being uniformly embeddable in a Hilbert space and the reduced C*-algebra of the group being exact.
We decompose the K-theory space of a Waldhausen category in terms of its Dwyer-Kan simplicial localization. This leads to a criterion for functors to induce equivalences of K-theory spectra that generalizes and explains many of the criteria…
We exhibit a map f between aspherical spaces X and Y such that f induces an isomorphism on homotopy groups but, with natural topologies, X and Y fail to have homeomorphic fundamental groups. Thus the topological fundamental group has the…
We set out some general criteria to prove the K-property, refining the assumptions used in arXiv:1906.09315 for the flow case, and introducing the analogous discrete-time result. We also introduce one-sided $\lambda$-decompositions, as well…
In relation to Itzkowitz's problem, we show that a $\mathfrak c$-bounded $P$-group is balanced if and only if it is functionally balanced. We prove that for an arbitrary $P$-group, being functionally balanced is equivalent to being strongly…
The paper presents a classification theorem for the class of flat connections with triangular (0,1)-components on a topologically trivial complex vector bundle over a compact Kahler manifold. As a consequence we obtain several results on…
We construct explicit generators of the K-theory and K-homology of the coordinate algebra of `functions' on quantum projective spaces. We also sketch a construction of unbounded Fredholm modules, that is to say Dirac-like operators and…
We provide a thorough construction of a system of compatible determinant line bundles over spaces of Fredholm operators, fully verify that this system satisfies a number of important properties, and include explicit formulas for all…
Gaussian elimination answers any question about a finitely presented vector space. However, a "uniform family" of such presentations--given as generic relations among an unspecified number of generators--is susceptible to elimination only…
We compute the equivariant complex K-theory ring of a cohomogeneity-one action of a compact Lie group at the level of generators and relations and derive a characterization of K-theoretic equivariant formality for these actions. Less…
It is shown that Connes' character formula for unbounded, theta-summable Fredholm modules represents the abstract Chern-character in K-homology. As an application, the character of a particular Fredholm module over the reduced group…
