The article is devoted to homological complexes. Smashly graded modules and complexes are studied over nonassociative algebras with metagroup relations. Smashed tensor products of homological complexes are investigated. Their homotopisms…

Higher nilpotent analogues of the $A-\infty$-structure are explicitly defined on arbitrary simplicial complexes, generalizing explicit construction of /hep-th/0704.2609. These structures are associated with the higher nilpotent differential…

Consider a smooth affine algebraic variety $X$ over an algebraically closed field, and let a finite group $G$ act on it. We assume that the characteristic of the field is greater than the dimension of $X$ and the order of $G$. An explicit…

The purpose of this paper is to compare two spectral sequences converging to the cohomology of a configuration space. The collapsing of these spectral sequences is established, in some cases, using Massey products.

Early in the history of higher homotopy algebra, it was realized that Massey products are homotopy invariants in a special sense, but it was the work of Tornike Kadeisvili that showed they were but a shadow of an A-infinity-structure on the…

We propose a simple method for constructing formal deformations of differential graded algebras in the category of minimal $A_\infty$-algebras. The basis for our approach is provided by the Gerstenhaber algebra structure on the…

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…

Let $A_n$ be the $n$-th Weyl algebra, and let $G\subset\Sp_{2n}(\C)\subset\Aut(A_n)$ be a finite group of linear automorphisms of $A_n$. In this paper we compute the multiplicative structure on the Hochschild cohomology $\HH^*(A_n^G)$ of…

We study smooth higher symmetry groups and moduli $\infty$-stacks of generic higher geometric structures on manifolds. Symmetries are automorphisms which cover non-trivial diffeomorphisms of the base manifold. We construct the smooth higher…

This is the first in a sequence of articles exploring the relationship between commutative algebras and $E_\infty$-algebras in characteristic $p$ and mixed characteristic. In this paper we lay the groundwork by defining a new class of…

Let $S$ be a compact oriented surface. We construct homogeneous quasimorphisms on $Diff(S, area)$, on $Diff_0(S, area)$ and on $Ham(S)$ generalizing the constructions of Gambaudo-Ghys and Polterovich. We prove that there are infinitely many…

Given a profinite group G of finite p-cohomological dimension and a pro-p quotient H of G by a closed normal subgroup N, we study the filtration on the Iwasawa cohomology of N by powers of the augmentation ideal in the group algebra of H.…

In this paper we study multiplicative structures on comodules over bialgebras in the setting of $\infty$-categories. We show that the $\infty$-category of comodules over an $(\mathcal{O},\mathbf{Ass})$-bialgebra in a mixed…

We determine the product structure on Hochschild cohomology of commutative algebras in low degrees, obtaining the answer in all degrees for complete intersection algebras. As applications, we consider cyclic extension algebras as well as…

Extending work of Saneblidze-Umble and others, we use diagonals for the associahedron and multiplihedron to define tensor products of A-infinity algebras, modules, algebra homomorphisms, and module morphisms, as well as to define a bimodule…

The theory of generalized matric Massey products has been applied for some time to $A$-modules $M$, $A$ a $k$-algebra. The main application is to compute the local formal moduli $\hat{H}_M$, isomorphic to the local ring of the moduli of…

Quantum Chern-Simons invariants of differentiable manifolds are analyzed from the point of view of homological algebra. Given a manifold M and a Lie (or, more generally, an L-infinity) algebra g, the vector space H^*(M) \otimes g has the…

We prove a filtered version of the Homotopy Transfer Theorem which gives an A-infinity algebra structure on any page of the spectral sequence associated to a filtered dg-algebra. We then develop various applications to the study of the…

We show that the existence of a nontrivial Massey product in the cohomology ring H^*(X) imposes global constraints upon the Riemannian geometry of a manifold X. Namely, we exhibit a suitable systolic inequality, associated to such a…

We construct and study an $H$-space multiplication on $\mathcal R^+(M)$ for manifolds $M$ which are nullcobordant in their own tangential $2$-type. This is applied to give a rigidity criterion for the action of the diffeomorphism group on…
