We completely compute the Real Johnson-Wilson cohomology of $\mathbb{C}P^\infty$. Applying techniques from equivariant stable homotopy theory to the Bockstein spectral sequence, we produce permanent cycles and solve extension problems to…

We prove that the Real Johnson-Wilson theories ER(n) are homotopy associative and commutative ring spectra up to phantom maps. We further show that ER(n) represents an associatively and commutatively multiplicative cohomology theory on the…

Kitchloo and Wilson have used the homotopy fixed points spectrum ER(2) of the classical complex-oriented Johnson-Wilson spectrum E(2) to deduce certain non-immmersion results for real projective spaces. ER(n) is a $2^{n+2}(2^n-1)$-periodic…

Using the Bockstein spectral sequence developed previously by the authors, we compute the ring ER(n)^*(BO(q)) explicitly. We then use this calculation to show that the ring spectrum MO[2^{n+1}] is ER(n)-orientable (but not…

The $ER(2)$-cohomology of $B\mathbb{Z}/(2^q)$ and $\mathbb{C}P^n$ are computed along with the Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence for $ER(2)^*(\mathbb{C}P^\infty)$. This, along with other papers in this series, gives us the…

Let $E\mathbb{R}$ be an even-periodic Real Landweber exact $C_2$-spectrum, and $ER$ its spectrum of fixed points. We compute the $ER$-cohomology of the infinite stunted projective spectra $P_j$. These cohomology groups combine to form the…

We consider the moduli space of flat $SO(2n+1)$-connections (up to gauge transformations) on a Riemann surface, with fixed holonomy around a marked point. There are natural line bundles over this moduli space; we construct geometric…

Answering a question of W. S. Wilson, I introduce a Z/2-equivariant Atiyah-Real analogue of Johnson-Wilson cohomology theory BP<n>, whose coefficient ring is the =< n-chromatic part of Landweber's Real cobordism ring.

We obtain the equivariant K-homology of the classifying space \underline{E}W for W a right-angled or, more generally, an even Coxeter group. The key result is a formula for the relative Bredon homology of \underline{E}W in terms of Coxeter…

We compute the $\rm{SO}(n+1)$-equivariant mod $2$ Borel cohomology of the free iterated loop space $Z^{S^n}$ when $Z$ is a mod $2$ generalized Eilenberg Mac Lane space. When $n=1$, this recovers B\"okstedt and Ottosen's computation for the…

We compute ko_*(K(Z/2,2)) and ko^*(K(Z/2,2)), the connective KO-homology and -cohomology of the mod 2 Eilenberg-MacLane space K(Z/2,2), using the Adams spectral sequence. The work relies heavily on work done several years earlier for the…

We compute the cohomology with trivial coefficients of Lie algebras $\mathfrak{m}_0$ and $\mathfrak{m}_2$ of maximal class over the field $\mathbb{Z}_2$. In the infinite-dimensional case, we show that the cohomology rings…

We use a theorem of Tolman and Weitsman to find explicit formul\ae for the rational cohomology rings of the symplectic reduction of flag varieties in C^n, or generic coadjoint orbits of SU(n), by (maximal) torus actions. We also calculate…

We compute the Poincare polynomial and the cohomology algebra with rational coefficeints of the manifold M_n of real points of the moduli space of algebraic curves of genus 0 with n labeled points. This cohomology is a quadratic algebra,…

Let E=BP<n> denote the Johnson-Wilson spectrum, localized at p. It is proved that if E_*(X) is locally finite, then there is an isomorphism of right E_*-modules E^*(X) = (E_*(Sigma^{D+n+1}X))^V, where D=Sum |v_i| and M^V=Hom(M,Q/Z) is the…

We describe the cohomology of the quotient Z_K/H of a moment-angle complex Z_K by a freely acting subtorus H in T^m by establishing a ring isomorphism of H*(Z_K/H,R) with an appropriate Tor-algebra of the face ring R[K], with coefficients…

We give a simple construction of the correspondence between square-zero extensions $R'$ of a ring $R$ by an $R$-bimodule $M$ and second MacLane cohomology classes of $R$ with coefficients in $M$ (the simplest non-trivial case of the…

It is well known that cohomology with compact supports is not a homotopy invariant but only a proper homotopy one. However, as the proper category lacks of general categorical properties, a Brown representability theorem type does not seem…

Locally symmetric spaces like $SL(n,\mathbb Z)\backslash SL_n(\mathbb R)/SO(n)$ contain immersed compact flat manifolds of dimension equal to the real rank. We give a lower bound for the contribution of these cycles to the homology of…

The existence of a natural and projectively equivariant quantization in the sense of Lecomte [20] was proved recently by M. Bordemann [4], using the framework of Thomas-Whitehead connections. We give a new proof of existence using the…
