In this paper we study compact closed categories within the context of homotopical algebra. We construct two new model category structures by localizing two (Quillen equivalent) model categories of symmetric monoidal categories with the…
We undertake a systematic study of the notion of fibration in the setting of abstract simplicial complexes, where the concept of `homotopy' has been replaced by that of `contiguity'. Then a fibration will be a simplicial map satisfying the…
In the paper the notion of truncating twisting function from a cubical set to a permutahedral set and the corresponding notion of twisted Cartesian product of these sets are introduced. The latter becomes a permutocubical set that models in…
There are infinitely many variants of the notion of Kan fibration that, together with suitable choices of cofibrations and the usual notion of weak equivalence of simplicial sets, satisfy Quillen's axioms for a homotopy model category. The…
Let $Y$ be a CW-complex with a single 0-cell, let $K$ be its Kan group, a free simplicial group whose realization is a model for the space $\Omega Y$ of based loops on $Y$, and let $G$ be a Lie group, not necessarily connected. By means of…
We relate the brace products of a fibration with section to the differentials in its serre spectral sequence. In the particular case of free loop fibrations, we establish a link between these differentials and browder operations in the…
Let p be a fibration over a finite simplicial complex, whose fibers have the homotopy type of finite simplicial complexes. Then p is equivalent to an approximate fibration whose total space is a compact ENR. The proof uses homotopy coherent…
The classifying space of a crossed complex generalises the construction of Eilenberg-Mac Lane spaces. We show how the theory of fibrations of crossed complexes allows the analysis of homotopy classes of maps from a free crossed complex to…
Let $X$ be a simply connected space and $\Bbb K$ be any field. The normalized singular cochains $N^*(X; {\Bbb K})$ admit a natural strongly homotopy commutative algebra structure, which induces a natural product on the Hochschild homology…
We construct a model structure on the category of ordered simplicial complexes, Quillen equivalent to the standard model structure on simplicial sets. This shows that simplicial complexes, which are fully combinatorial in nature, provide a…
A chain complex model for the free loop space of a connected, closed and oriented manifold is presented, and on its homology, the Gerstenhaber and Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra structures are defined and identified with the string topology…
In a previous work, by extending the classical Quillen construction to the non-simply connected case, we have built a pair of adjoint functors, 'model' and 'realization', between the categories of simplicial sets and complete differential…
We investigate the collapsibility of systolic finite simplicial complexes of arbitrary dimension. The main tool we use in the proof is discrete Morse theory. We shall consider a convex subcomplex of the complex and project any simplex of…
The aim of this paper is to explain the relationship between the (co)homology of the free loop space and the Hochschild homology of its singular cochain algebra. We introduce all the relevant technical tools, namely simplicial and cyclic…
Numerably contractible spaces play an important role in the theory of homotopy pushouts and pullbacks. The corresponding results imply that a number of well known weak homotopy equivalences are genuine ones if numerably contractible spaces…
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…
We construct a multiplicative spectral sequence converging to the cohomology algebra of the diagonal complex of a bisimplicial set with coefficients in a field. The construction provides a spectral sequence converging to the cohomology…
We show that the metric structure of morphisms $f\colon Y\to X$ between quasi-smooth compact Berkovich curves over an algebraically closed field admits a finite combinatorial description. In particular, for a large enough skeleton…
We describe a construction of the Fukaya category of an exact symplectic Lefschetz fibration, together with its closed-open string map.
In this paper, we introduce a cofibrant simplicial category that we call the free homotopy coherent adjunction and characterize its n-arrows using a graphical calculus that we develop here. The hom-spaces are appropriately fibrant, indeed…
