In this paper we study the classifying spaces of graph products of simplicial groups and connected Hopf algebras over a field, and show that they can be uniformly treated under the framework of polyhedral products. It turns out that these…
Representation stability in the sense of Church-Farb is concerned with stable properties of representations of sequences of algebraic structures, in particular of groups. We study this notion on objects arising in toric topology. With a…
We prove a conjecture of Bahri, Bendersky, Cohen and Gitler: if K is a shifted simplicial complex on n vertices, X_1,..., X_n are spaces and CX_i is the cone on X_i, then the polyhedral product determined by K and the pairs (CX_i,X_i) is…
We study the homotopy types of moment-angle complexes, or equivalently, of complements of coordinate subspace arrangements. The overall aim is to identify the simplicial complexes K for which the corresponding moment-angle complex Z_K has…
In this paper we establish a connection between the loop space homology of the generalization of wedge defined by a simplicial complex K (so called polyhedral product) and the homology of certain diagonal arrangements associated with K. We…
This paper continues the author's program to investigate the question of when a homotopy of 2-cocycles $\Omega = \{\omega_t\}_{t \in [0,1]}$ on a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ induces an isomorphism of the $K$-theory…
The aim of this paper is to give a (discrete) Morse theoretic proof of the fact that the $k$-th skeleton of the flag complex $\mathcal{F}$, associated to the lattice of subspaces of a finite dimensional vector space, is homotopy equivalent…
We prove that the Seidel morphism of $(M \times M', \omega \oplus \omega')$ is naturally related to the Seidel morphisms of $(M,\omega)$ and $(M',\omega')$, when these manifolds are monotone. We deduce that any homotopy class of loops of…
Combinatorially and stochastically defined simplicial complexes often have the homotopy type of a wedge of spheres. A prominent conjecture of Kahle quantifies this precisely for the case of random flag complexes. We explore whether such…
We prove that certain conditions on multigraded Betti numbers of a simplicial complex $K$ imply existence of a higher Massey product in cohomology of a moment-angle-complex $\mathcal Z_K$, which contains a unique element (a strictly defined…
We show that the loop homology algebras of polyhedral products of the form $(\underline{X},\underline{*})^{\mathcal{K}}$ can be written as a colimit over the flagification of $\mathcal{K}$, and obtain a similar result for the Poincar\'e…
We show that for any face $F$ of a simple polytope $P$ the canonical equivariant homeomorphisms $h_P:\,\mathcal Z_P\to\mathcal Z_{K_P}$ and $h_F:\,\mathcal Z_F\to\mathcal Z_{K_F}$ are linked in a pentagonal commutative diagram with the maps…
We consider a certain class of simplicial complexes which includes the independence complexes of forests. We show that if a simplicial complex $K$ belongs to this class, then the polyhedral join $\mathcal{Z}^*_{K}(\underline{X}, \emptyset)$…
Let $P=G/K$ be a semisimple non-compact Riemannian symmetric space, where $G=I_0(P)$ and $K=G_p$ is the stabilizer of $p\in P$. Let $X$ be an orbit of the (isotropy) representation of $K$ on $T_p(P)$ ($X$ is called a real flag manifold).…
$Hom(G,H)$ is a polyhedral complex defined for any two undirected graphs $G$ and $H$. This construction was introduced by Lov\'asz to give lower bounds for chromatic numbers of graphs. In this paper we initiate the study of the topological…
This paper studies the map between polyhedral products $\mathcal{Z}_K(C\underline{X},\underline{X})\to\mathcal{Z}_K(\Sigma\underline{X},*)$ induced from the pinch maps $(CX_i,X_i)\to(\Sigma X_i,*)$, which is the higher order Whitehead…
For every simplicial complex K there exists a vertex-transitive simplicial complex homotopy equivalent to a wedge of copies of K with some copies of the circle. It follows that every simplicial complex can occur as a homotopy wedge summand…
This paper constitutes a first step in the author's program to investigate the question of when a homotopy of 2-cocycles $\omega = \{\omega_t\}_{t \in [0,1]}$ on a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ induces an isomorphism of…
Let F denote the homotopy fiber of a map f:K-->L of 2-reduced simplicial sets. Using as input data the strongly homotopy coalgebra structure of the chain complexes of K and L, we construct a small, explicit chain algebra, the homology of…
In this paper we prove that, taking $X$ a Hausdorff topological space, the homotopy groups of the spaces $SP_{m}(X)$ and $F_{m}(X)$, both called symmetric products, are monomorphic. We also introduce a new algebraic tool in topology: the…
