This article explains and extends semialgebraic homotopy theory (developed by H. Delfs and M. Knebusch) to o-minimal homotopy theory (over a field). The homotopy category of definable CW-complexes is equivalent to the homotopy category of…

We show that the Whittaker functor on a regular block of the BGG-category $\mathcal{O}$ of a semisimple complex Lie algebra can be obtained by composing a translation to the wall functor with Soergel and Mili\v{c}i\'{c}'s equivalence…

Let K be the product O(n_1) x O(n_2) x ... x O(n_r) of orthogonal groups. Let V the r-fold tensor product of defining representations of each orthogonal factor. We compute a stable formula for the dimension of the K-invariant algebra of…

The multivariate Meixner polynomials are shown to arise as matrix elements of unitary representations of the $SO(d,1)$ group on oscillator states. These polynomials depend on $d$ discrete variables and are orthogonal with respect to the…

For each pair $(m,n)$ of positive integers with $(m,n)\not= (1,1)$ and an arbitrary field $\bf F$ with algebraic closure $\overline{\bf F}$, let $\rm Po^{d,m}_n(\bf F)$ denote the space of $m$-tuples $(f_1(z),\cdots ,f_m(z))\in \bf F [z]^m$…

Let M be any closed, locally symmetric n-manifold (n>1) of nonpositive curvature. Assume that M has no locally Euclidean factors and no factors locally isometric to SL(3,R). Then for any closed Riemannian manifold N and any continuous map…

The L'vov-Kaplansky conjecture states that the image of a multilinear noncommutative polynomial $f$ in the matrix algebra $M_n(K)$ is a vector space for every $n \in {\mathbb N}$. We prove this conjecture for the case where $f$ has degree…

In this paper, we first construct some complete cotorson pairs on the category $\mathbb{C}_N(\mathcal{G})$ of unbounded $N$-complexes of Grothendieck category $\mathcal{G}$, from two given cotorsion pairs in $\mathcal{G}$. Next as an…

We first show that a continuous function f is nonnegative on a closed set $K\subseteq R^n$ if and only if (countably many) moment matrices of some signed measure $d\nu =fd\mu$ with support equal to K, are all positive semidefinite (if $K$…

Galatius, Madsen, Tillmann and Weiss have identified the homotopy type of the classifying space of the cobordism category with objects (d-1)-dimensional manifolds embedded in R^\infty. In this paper we apply the techniques of spaces of…

The notion of an $\mathcal{M}$-coextensive object is introduced in an arbitrary category $\mathbb{C}$, where $\mathcal{M}$ is a distinguished class of morphisms from $\mathbb{C}$. This notion allows for a categorical treatment of the strict…

Let $k$ be a unital commutative ring. In this paper, we study polynomial functors from the category of finitely generated free nilpotent groups to the category of $k$-modules, focusing on comparisons across different nilpotency classes and…

We construct a category $\mathrm{HomCob}$ whose objects are {\it homotopically 1-finitely generated} topological spaces, and whose morphisms are {\it cofibrant cospans}. Given a manifold submanifold pair $(M,A)$, we prove that there exists…

For an associative ring $R$, let $P$ be an $R$-module with $S=\End_R(P)$. C.\ Menini and A. Orsatti posed the question of when the related functor $\Hom_R(P,-)$ (with left adjoint $P\ot_S-$) induces an equivalence between a subcategory of…

A simple criterion for a functor to be finitary is presented: we call $F$ finitely bounded if for all objects $X$ every finitely generated subobject of $FX$ factorizes through the $F$-image of a finitely generated subobject of $X$. This is…

We introduce the compactness locus of a geometric functor between rigidly-compactly generated tensor-triangulated categories, and describe it for several examples arising in equivariant homotopy theory and algebraic geometry. It is a subset…

Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be a hypersurface local ring of dimension $d \geq 1$ and let $I$ be an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal. We show that there is a non-negative integer $r_I$ (depending only on $I$) such that if $M$ is any non-free maximal…

We introduce and study a general notion of polynomial functor from a small monoidal symmetric category whose unit is an initial object and give a classification result of polynomial functors of degree smaller of equal to n modulo those of…

We construct a pairing, which we call factorization homology, between framed manifolds and higher categories. The essential geometric notion is that of a vari-framing of a stratified manifold, which is a framing on each stratum together…

For a complete and cocomplete category $\mathcal{C}$ with a well-behaved class of `projectives' $\bar{\mathcal{P}}$, we construct a model structure on the category $s\mathcal{C}$ of simplicial objects in $\mathcal{C}$ where the weak…
