We prove that homotopy invariants of finite degree distinguish homotopy classes of maps of a connected compact CW-complex to a nilpotent connected CW-complex with finitely generated homotopy groups.

This paper is the second part of the series "Spherical higher order Fourier analysis over finite fields", aiming to develop the higher order Fourier analysis method along spheres over finite fields, and to solve the geometric Ramsey…

In this paper we begin the study of the (dual) Steenrod algebra of the motivic Witt cohomology spectrum $H_W\mathbb{Z}$ by determining the algebra structure of ${H_W\mathbb{Z}}_{**}H_W\mathbb{Z}$ over fields $k$ of characteristic not $2$…

Let p be an odd regular prime, and assume that the Lichtenbaum-Quillen conjecture holds for K(Z[1/p]) at p. Then the p-primary homotopy type of the smooth Whitehead spectrum Wh(*) is described. A suspended copy of the cokernel-of-J spectrum…

In a seminal 1994 paper, Lusztig extended the theory of total positivity by introducing the totally non-negative part (G/P)_{\geq 0} of an arbitrary (generalized, partial) flag variety G/P. He referred to this space as a "remarkable…

We identify the space of left-invariant oriented complex structures on the complex Heisenberg group, and prove that it has the homotopy type of the disjoint union of a point and a 2-sphere.

Generically, the set of points along which two non-singular vector fields on the three-sphere are positively (resp. negatively) collinear form a link. We prove that the two vector fields are homotopic if and only if the linking number of…

We show the following symmetry property of a bounded Reinhardt domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{C}^{n+1}$: let $M=\partial\Omega$ be the smooth boundary of $\Omega$ and let $h$ be the Second Fundamental Form of $M$; if the coefficient $h(T,T)$…

This is a continuation of an earlier preprint (math.GT/0209121) under the same title. These papers grew out of an attempt to find a suitable finite sheeted covering of an aspherical 3-manifold so that the cover either has infinite or…

In this paper we prove a tertiary index theorem which relates a spectral geometric and a homotopy theoretic invariant of an almost complex manifold with framed boundary. It is derived from the index theoretic and homotopy theoretic versions…

We construct well-behaved extensions of the motivic spectra representing generalized motivic cohomology and connective Balmer--Witt K-theory (among others) to mixed characteristic Dedekind schemes on which 2 is invertible. As a consequence…

In this paper, we consider real and complex algebras as well as algebras over general fields. In Section 2, we revisit and prove several results on (quadratic) algebras over general fields. As an example, we demonstrate that a quadratic…

First, we consider a compact real-analytic irreducible subvariety $M$ in a sphere and its dual variety $M^\vee$. We explain that two matrices of the second fundamental forms for both varieties $M$ and $M^\vee$ can be regarded as the inverse…

Let $n\in\mathbb{N}$ and let $\Theta \subset \{1,\dots,n\}$ be a non-empty subset. We prove that if $\Theta$ contains an odd integer, then any $P_\Theta$-Anosov subgroup of ${\rm Sp}(2n,\mathbb{R})$ is virtually isomorphic to a free group…

The recently proposed differential homotopy approach to the analysis of nonlinear higher spin theory is developed. The Ansatz is extended to the form applicable in the second order of the perturbation theory and general star-multiplication…

In this second paper of a series dedicated to type I Howe duality for finite fields, we explicitly describe the eta and zeta correspondences constructed in the first paper in terms of G. Lusztig's parametrization of the irreducible…

We prove that the inertia groups of all sufficiently-connected, high-dimensional $(2n)$-manifolds are trivial. This is a key step toward a general classification of manifolds in the metastable range. Specifically, for $m \gg 0$ and…

We use the Hopf fibration to explicitly compute generators of the second homotopy group of the flag manifolds of a compact Lie group. We show that these $2$-spheres have nice geometrical properties such as being totally geodesic surfaces…

In this report, we discuss the Seiberg-Witten maps up to the second order in the noncommutative parameter $\theta$. They add to the recently published solutions in [1]. Expressions for the vector, fermion and Higgs fields are given…

Inverse spectral problems are studied for the second order integro-differential operators on a finite interval. Properties of spectral characteristic are established, and the uniqueness theorem is proved for this class of inverse problems.
