In Part I, we proved that a rational model for the fiberwise THH transfer of a map $f$ of fibrations over a base space is given by the Hochschild homology transfer of a cdga model of $f$. In this paper, we provide an explicit description of…

We verify the Becker-Shultz axioms characterizing the Becker-Gottlieb transfer $\tau$ for the composite of the algebraic K-theory transfer of any perfect fibration followed by the trace map. As a consequence, for any compact ANR fibration…

We show that the Waldhausen trace map $\mathrm{Tr}_X \colon A(X) \to QX_+$, which defines a natural splitting map from the algebraic $K$-theory of spaces to stable homotopy, is natural up to \emph{weak} homotopy with respect to transfer…

We prove that the Becker-Gottlieb transfer is functorial up to homotopy, for all fibrations with finitely dominated fibers. This resolves a lingering foundational question about the transfer, which was originally defined in the late 1970s…

We construct and study a functorial extension of the evaluation map $S^1 \times \mathcal{L} X \to X$ to transfers along finite covers. For finite covers of classifying spaces of finite groups, we provide algebraic formulas for this…

In our previous paper, we constructed and studied a functorial extension of the evaluation map $S^1 \times \mathcal{L}X \to X$ to transfers along finite covers. In this paper, we show that this induces a natural evaluation map on the full…

Given a map $f$ of fibrations over a space $B$ such that the fiber of $f$ is simply connected and finitely dominated, we prove that its fiberwise THH transfer, considered as a map of parametrized spectra over $B$, is rationally modeled by…

Let $L$ and $N$ be two smooth manifolds of the same dimension. Let $j\colon L\to T^*N$ be an exact Lagrange embedding. We denote the free loop space of $X$ by $\Lambda X$. C. Viterbo constructed a transfer map $(\Lambda j)^! \colon…

We give new homotopy theoretic criteria for deciding when a fibration with homotopy finite fibers admits a reduction to a fiber bundle with compact topological manifold fibers. The criteria lead to a new and unexpected result about…

B\"okstedt and Madsen defined an infinite loop map from the embedded $d$-dimensional cobordism category of Galatius, Madsen, Tillmann and Weiss to the algebraic $K$-theory of $BO(d)$ in the sense of Waldhausen. The purpose of this paper is…

We define a transfer map in the setting of bounded cohomology with certain metric G-module coefficients. As an application, we extend a theorem of Chatterji, Mislin, Pittet and Saloff-Coste on the comparison map from Borel-bounded to Borel…

We show that the functor which assigns to an A-infinity morphism between isotopy classes of A-infinity algebras whose linear part is a chain homotopy equivalence its underlying chain map is a discrete Grothendieck bifibration. We then…

We consider transfer maps on ordinary homology, bordism of singular spaces and homology with coefficients in Ranicki's symmetric L-spectrum, associated to block bundles with closed oriented PL manifold fiber and compact polyhedral base. We…

Using the $E_\infty-$structure on singular cochains, we construct a homotopy coherent map from the cyclic bar construction of the differential graded algebra of cochains on a space to a model for the cochains on its free loop space. This…

Let $e: N^n \rightarrow M^m $ be an embedding into a compact manifold $M$. We study the relationship between the homology of the free loop space $LM$ on $M$ and of the space $L_NM$ of loops of $M$ based in $N$ and define a shriek map $…

The Becker-Gottlieb transfer gives a wrong-way map on suspension spectra for maps of spaces whose homotopy fibres are retracts of finite complexes. We prove that this construction is contravariantly functorial on the homotopy category…

The free loops space $\Lambda X$ of a space $X$ has become an important object of study particularly in the case when $X$ is a manifold.The study of free loop spaces is motivated in particular by two main examples. The first is their…

The aim of this paper is to explain the relationship between the (co)homology of the free loop space and the Hochschild homology of its singular cochain algebra. We introduce all the relevant technical tools, namely simplicial and cyclic…

We prove that isomorphism classes of principal bundles over a diffeological space are in bijection to certain maps on its free loop space, both in a setup with and without connections on the bundles. The maps on the loop space are smooth…

Integrally oriented normally nonsingular maps between singular spaces have associated transfer homomorphisms on KO-homology at odd primes. We prove that such transfers preserve Siegel-Sullivan orientations, defined when the singular spaces…
