We prove conditions under which the total space of the pullback of a sphere fibration over a connected sum is homotopy equivalent to a connected sum with a gyration. Existing results of this type often depend on geometric methods. We…

The rank of a hierarchically hyperbolic space is the maximal number of unbounded factors in a standard product region. For hierarchically hyperbolic groups, this coincides with the maximal dimension of a quasiflat. Examples for which the…

For a closed connected manifold N, we construct a family of functions on the Hamiltonian group G of the cotangent bundle T^*N, and a family of functions on the space of smooth functions with compact support on T^*N. These satisfy properties…

We present and explore in detail a pair of digital images with $c_u$-adjacencies that are homotopic but not pointed homotopic. For two digital loops $f,g: [0,m]_Z \rightarrow X$ with the same basepoint, we introduce the notion of {\em tight…

The class of all quasigroups is covered by six classes: the class of all asymmetric quasigroups and five varieties of quasigroups (commutative, left symmetric, right symmetric, semi-symmetric and totally symmetric). Each of these classes is…

A subgroup $H\leq G$ is said to be almost normal if every conjugate of $H$ is commensurable to $H$. If $H$ is almost normal, there is a well-defined quotient space $G/H$. We show that if a group $G$ has type $F_{n+1}$ and contains an almost…

A class of Cantor-type spaces and related geometric structures are discussed.

We establish a loop space decomposition for certain $CW$-complexes with a single top cell in the presence of a spherical pair, thereby generalizing several known decompositions of Poincar\'{e} duality complexes in which a loop of a product…

In this work we characterize those shift spaces which can support a 1-block quasi-group operation and show the analogous of Kitchens result: any such shift is conjugated to a product of a full shift with a finite shift. Moreover, we prove…

We compute the topological simple structure set of closed manifolds which occur as total spaces of flat bundles over lens spaces S^l/(Z/p) with fiber an n-dimensjional torus T^n for an odd prime p and l greater or equal to 3, provided that…

We use braided groups to introduce a theory of $*$-structures on general inhomogeneous quantum groups, which we formulate as {\em quasi-$*$} Hopf algebras. This allows the construction of the tensor product of unitary representations up to…

A separable, proper morphism of varieties with geometrically connected fibers induces a homotopy exact sequence relating the \'etale fundamental groups of source, target and fiber. Extending work of dos Santos, we prove the existence of an…

Recently Gambaudo and Ghys proved that there exist infinitely many quasi-morphisms on the group ${\rm Diff}_\Omega^\infty (D^2, \partial D^2)$ of area-preserving diffeomorphisms of the 2-disk $D^2$. For the proof, they constructed a…

We show that the quotient associated to a quasi-Hamiltonian space has a symplectic structure even when 1 is not a regular value of the momentum map: it is a disjoint union of symplectic manifolds of possibly different dimensions, which…

We study the homotopy types of spaces of algebraic (rational) maps from real projective spaces into complex projective spaces. In a previous paper we have shown that the inclusion of the first space into the second one is a homotopy…

Let G and F be finitely generated groups with infinitely many ends and let A and B be graph of groups decompositions of F and G such that all edge groups are finite and all vertex groups have at most one end. We show that G and F are…

The aim of this short paper is to establish a spectral algebra analog of the Bousfield-Kan "fibration lemma" under appropriate conditions. We work in the context of algebraic structures that can be described as algebras over an operad…

We introduce the notion of \textit{relative $L^p$-cohomology} as a quasi-isometry invariant defined for Gromov-hyperbolic spaces, and apply it to the problem of quasi-isometry classification of Heintze groups. More precisely, we explicitly…

We prove that closed manifolds admitting a generic metric whose sectional curvature is locally quasi-constant are graphs of space forms. In the more general setting of QC spaces where sets of isotropic points are arbitrary, under suitable…

We construct a new infinite-dimensional family of homogeneous quasimorphisms on the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of the two-sphere. Moreover, for any constant $K$ less than the total area of the sphere, we produce unbounded…
