A moment category is endowed with a distinguished set of split idempotents, called moments, which can be transported along morphisms. Equivalently, a moment category is a category with an active/inert factorisation system fulfilling two…
Some sufficient conditions on a simplicial space $X$ guaranteeing that $X_1\simeq \Omega|X|$ were given by Segal. We give a generalization of this result for multisimplicial spaces. This generalization is appropriate for the reduced bar…
If $a$ is a densely defined sectorial form in a Hilbert space which is possibly not closable, then we associate in a natural way a holomorphic semigroup generator with $a$. This allows us to remove in several theorems of semigroup theory…
This paper is about a correspondence between monoidal structures in categories and $n$-fold loop spaces. We develop a new syntactical technique whose role is to substitute the coherence results, which were the main ingredients in the proofs…
We define a cohomology for an arbitrary $K$-linear semistrict semigroupal 2-category $(\mathfrak{C},\otimes)$ (called in the paper a Gray semigroup) and show that its first order (unitary) deformations, up to the suitable notion of…
Modular operads are an extension of operads. In the same way that operads, as dendroidal sets, can be considered as presheaves over the category of trees, so can modular operads be considered as presheaves over a category of graphs. This…
This presentation is the sequel of a paper published in GETCO'00 proceedings where a research program to construct an appropriate algebraic setting for the study of deformations of higher dimensional automata was sketched. This paper…
These expository notes are dedicated to the study of the topology of configuration spaces of manifolds. We give detailed computations of many invariants, including the fundamental group of the configuration spaces of $\mathbb{R}^2$, the…
We interpret a construction of geometric realisation by [Besser], [Grayson], and [Drinfeld] of a simplicial set as constructing a space of maps from the interval to a simplicial set, in a certain formal sense, reminiscent of the Skorokhod…
We introduce a general notion of enrichment for homotopy-coherent algebraic structures described by Segal conditions, using the framework of "algebraic patterns" developed in our previous work. This recovers several known examples of…
In this paper configuration spaces of smooth manifolds are considered. The accent is made on actions of certain groups (mostly $p$-tori) on this spaces by permuting their points. For such spaces the cohomological index, the genus in the…
Given a symplectic manifold $M$, we may define an operad structure on the the spaces $\op^k$ of the Lagrangian submanifolds of $(\bar{M})^k\times M$ via symplectic reduction. If $M$ is also a symplectic groupoid, then its multiplication…
We show that the discretized configuration space of $k$ points in the $n$-simplex is homotopy equivalent to a wedge of spheres of dimension $n-k+1$. This space is homeomorphic to the order complex of the poset of ordered partial partitions…
A semi-isotropic space is a real affine 3-space endowed with the non-degenerate metric dx^{2}-dy^{2}. The main purpose of this paper is to describe the surfaces of revolution in the semi-isotropic space that satisfy some equations in terms…
The paper examines machines of the type of the $\Gamma$-spaces of Segal which describe homotopy structures on topological spaces. The main result of the paper shows that for any such machine one can find an algebraic theory characterizing…
We explore two properties of backward orbits under semigroups of holomorphic self-maps in the unit disk. First, we prove that regular backward orbits are quasi-geodesics for the hyperbolic distance of the unit disk. Then, we show that…
The purpose of this foundational paper is to introduce various notions and constructions in order to develop the homotopy theory for differential graded operads over any ring. The main new idea is to consider the action of the symmetric…
The goal is to review the notion of a complete Segal space and how certain categorical notions behave in this context. In particular, we study functoriality in complete Segal spaces via fibrations. Then we use it to define limits and…
We introduce a novel notion of pasting shapes for iterated Segal spaces which classify particular arrangements of composing cells in d-uple Segal spaces. Using this formalism, we then continue to prove a pasting theorem for these iterated…
This paper is devoted to the study of semigroups of composition operators and semigroups of holomorphic mappings. We establish conditions under which these semigroups can be extended in their parameter to sector given a priori. We show that…
