The complement of the codimension 2 complex coordinate subspace arrangement is shown to be homotopy equivalent to a wedge of spheres.
Let $X$ be a locally symmetric space $\Gamma\backslash G/K$ where $G$ is a connected non-compact semisimple real Lie group with trivial centre, $K$ is a maximal compact subgroup of $G$, and $\Gamma\subset G$ is a torsion-free irreducible…
Suppose a compact torus $T$ acts on a closed smooth manifold $M$. Under certain conditions, Guillemin and Zara associate to $(M, T)$ a labeled graph $\mG_M$ where the labels lie in $H^2(BT)$. They also define the subring $H_T^*(\mG_M)$ of…
We introduce the notion of dual perfect bases and dual perfect graphs. We show that every integrable highest weight module $V_q(\lambda)$ over a quantum generalized Kac-Moody algebra $U_{q}(\mathcal{g})$ has a dual perfect basis and its…
Focke, Goldberg, and \v{Z}ivn\'y (arXiv 2017) prove a complexity dichotomy for the problem of counting surjective homomorphisms from a large input graph G without loops to a fixed graph H that may have loops. In this note, we give a short…
The cycle space of a graph corresponds to the kernel of an incidence matrix. We investigate an analogous subspace for digraphs. In the case of digraphs of graphs, where every edge is replaced by two oppositely directed arcs, we give a…
We say that binary relation E on a space X is a clopen graph on X iff E is symmetric and irreflexive and clopen relative to X x X minus its diagonal. Equivalently for distinct x, y in X there are open sets U,V with (x,y) in U x V and either…
In [math.AT/9907138] we proved that strongly homotopy algebras are homotopy invariant concepts in the category of chain complexes. Our arguments were based on the fact that strongly homotopy algebras are algebras over minimal cofibrant…
We begin the study the algebraic topology of semi-coarse spaces, which are generalizations of coarse spaces that enable one to endow non-trivial `coarse-like' structures to compact metric spaces, something which is impossible in coarse…
After recalling the construction of a graded Lie bracket on the space of cyclic multilinear forms on a vector space V, due to Georges Pinczon and Rosane Ushirobira, we prove this construction gives a structure of quadratic associative…
The goal of this paper is to complete Getzler-Jones' proof of Deligne's Conjecture, thereby establishing an explicit relationship between the geometry of configurations of points in the plane and the Hochschild complex of an associative…
For a positive integer $k$, the \emph{ total $k$-cut complex} of a graph $G$, denoted as $\Delta_k^t(G)$, is the simplicial complex whose facets are $\sigma \subseteq V(G)$ such that $|\sigma| = |V(G)|-k$ and the induced subgraph $G[V(G)…
We generalize the coupled braces {x}{y} of Gerstenhaber and {x}{y,...,z} of Getzler depicting compositions of multilinear maps in the Hochschild complex C(A)=Hom(TA;A) of a graded vector space A to expressions of the form…
We provide two results. The first gives a finite graph constructed from consideration of mutually unbiased bases that occurs as a subgraph of the orthogonality space of $\mathbb{C}^3$ but not of that of $\mathbb{R}^3$. The second is a…
This is a research monograph on symplectic cohomology (disguised as an advanced graduate textbook), which provides a construction of this version of Hamiltonian Floer cohomology for cotangent bundles of closed manifolds. The focus is on the…
A $2$-matching complex is a simplicial complex which captures the relationship between $2$-matchings of a graph. In this paper, we will use discrete Morse Theory and the Matching Tree Algorithm to prove homotopical results. We will consider…
In this note, I discuss in some detail the dual version of the ribbon graph decomposition of the moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces with boundary and marked points, which I introduced in math.AG/0402015, and used in math.QA/0412149 to…
For dimensions n greater than or equal to 3, we show that the space of metrics of positive scalar curvature on the n-sphere is homotopy equivalent to a subspace which takes the form of a H-space with a homotopy commutative, homotopy…
The class of loop spaces whose mod p cohomology is Noetherian is much larger than the class of p-compact groups (for which the mod p cohomology is required to be finite). It contains Eilenberg-Mac Lane spaces such as the infinite complex…
We construct for any algebra over an operad an Hochschild chain complex. In the case of the singular cochain complex of a topological space, considered as a commutative algebra up to homotopy, we show that this complex computes the singular…
