We construct analogues of FI-modules where the role of the symmetric group is played by the general linear groups and the symplectic groups over finite rings and prove basic structural properties such as Noetherianity. Applications include…

We prove a general homological stability theorem for certain families of groups equipped with product maps, followed by two theorems of a new kind that give information about the last two homology groups outside the stable range. (These…

We show that the closed convex hull of any one-dimensional semi-algebraic subset of R^n has a semidefinite representation, meaning that it can be written as a linear projection of the solution set of some linear matrix inequality. This is…

We establish homological stability for automorphisms of symmetric bilinear forms over a class of principal ideal domains that includes all fields, the integers, the Gaussian integers, and the Eisenstein integers. In conjunction with…

Swarm and constellation reconfiguration can be viewed as motion of an unordered point configuration in an ambient space. Here, we provide persistence-stable, symmetry-invariant geometric representations for comparing and monitoring…

Let $X$ be a curve over $\F_q$ with function field $F$. In this paper, we define a graph for each Hecke operator with fixed ramification. A priori, these graphs can be seen as a convenient language to organize formulas for the action of…

The paper studies wsat$(G,H)$ which is the minimum number of edges in a weakly $H$-saturated subgraph of $G$. We prove that wsat$(K_n,H)$ is `stable' - remains the same after independent removal of every edge of $K_n$ with constant…

We prove a representation stability result for the second homology groups of Torelli subgroups of mapping class groups and automorphism groups of free groups. This strengthens the results of Boldsen-Hauge Dollerup and Day-Putman. We also…

For a graph $H$ and an integer $k\ge 1$, the \emph{Token Sliding reconfiguration graph} $\mathsf{TS}_k(H)$ and the \emph{Token Jumping reconfiguration graph} $\mathsf{TJ}_k(H)$ have as vertices the $k$-cliques of $H$, with two vertices…

The ordered configuration space of $n$ open unit squares in the $w$ by $h$ rectangle exhibits homological stability in the space direction. That is, for fixed $n$ and fixed homological degree $k$, once the underlying rectangle is large…

The stability theorem for persistent homology is a central result in topological data analysis. While the original formulation of the result concerns the persistence barcodes of $\mathbb{R}$-valued functions, the result was later cast in a…

Let $G$ be a transitive permutation group on a finite set $\Omega$ and recall that a base for $G$ is a subset of $\Omega$ with trivial pointwise stabiliser. The base size of $G$, denoted $b(G)$, is the minimal size of a base. If $b(G)=2$…

We investigate the flat holomorphic vector bundles over compact complex parallelizable manifolds $G / \Gamma$, where $G$ is a complex connected Lie group and $\Gamma$ is a cocompact lattice in it. The main result proved here is a structure…

We prove that, given $\epsilon>0$ and $k\geq 1$, there is an integer $n$ such that the following holds. Suppose $G$ is a finite group and $A\subseteq G$ is $k$-stable. Then there is a normal subgroup $H\leq G$ of index at most $n$, and a…

In a previous paper, arXiv:1206.5498, we introduced a new homological invariant $\e$ for the faithful action of a finite group G on an algebraic curve. We show here that the moduli space of curves admitting a faithful action of a finite…

Let $G$ be a permutation group on a set $\Omega$. A base for $G$ is a subset of $\Omega$ whose pointwise stabiliser is trivial, and the base size of $G$ is the minimal cardinality of a base. If $G$ has base size $2$, then the corresponding…

The study of string C-group representations of rank at least $n/2$ for the symmetric group $S_n$ has gained a lot of attention in the last fifteen years. In a recent paper, Cameron et al. gave a list of permutation representation graphs of…

A VI-module gives rise to a sequence of representations of the finite general linear groups. We prove that the sequence obtained from any finitely generated VI-module over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero is…

We introduce a new map between configuration spaces of points in a background manifold - the replication map - and prove that it is a homology isomorphism in a range with certain coefficients. This is particularly of interest when the…

Suppose that G is a finite, unitary reflection group acting on a complex vector space V and X is the fixed point subspace of an element of G. Define N to be the setwise stabilizer of X in G, Z to be the pointwise stabilizer, and C=N/Z. Then…
