We define notions of higher order spectra of a complex quasi-projective manifold with an action of a finite group $G$ and with a $G$-equivariant automorphism of finite order, some of their refinements and give Macdonald type equations for…
We study the higher (sequential) topological complexity, a numerical homotopy invariant for the planar polygon spaces. For these spaces with a small genetic codes and dimension $m$, Davis showed that their topological complexity is either…
We introduce an equivariant version of contextuality with respect to a symmetry group, which comes with natural applications to quantum theory. In the equivariant setting, we construct cohomology classes that can detect contextuality. This…
In this note we use techniques in the topology of 2-complexes to recast some tools that have arisen in the study of planar tiling questions. With spherical pictures we show that the tile counting group associated to a set $T$ of tiles and a…
We introduce a refinement of Bar-Natan homology for involutive links, extending the work of Lobb-Watson and Sano. We construct a new suite of numerical invariants and derive bounds for the genus of equivariant cobordisms between strongly…
In this paper, we adapt part of Weinberger, Xie and Yu's breakthrough work, to define additive higher rho invariant for topological structure group by differential geometric version of signature operators, or in other words, unbounded…
In this paper, we introduce the n-th discrete topological complexity and study its properties such as its relation with simplicial Lusternik-Schnirelmann category and how the higher dimensions of discrete topological complexity relate with…
We answer the following question posed by Lechuga: Given a simply-connected space $X$ with both $H_*(X,\qq)$ and $\pi_*(X)\otimes \qq$ being finite-dimensional, what is the computational complexity of an algorithm computing the cup-length…
Topological complexity was first introduced in 2003 by Michael Farber as a homotopy invariant for a connected topological space X, denoted by TC(X). Although the invariant is defined in terms of elementary homotopy theory using well-known…
This purpose of this book is twofold: to provide a general introduction to higher category theory (using the formalism of "quasicategories" or "weak Kan complexes"), and to apply this theory to the study of higher versions of Grothendieck…
Certain topological invariants of the moduli space of gravitational instantons are defined and studied. Several amplitudes of two and four dimensional topological gravity are computed. A notion of puncture in four dimensions, that is…
Both a general and a diagonal u-invariant for forms of higher degree are defined, generalizing the u-invariant of quadratic forms. Both old and new results on these invariants are collected.
The intended model of the homotopy type theories used in Univalent Foundations is the infinity-category of homotopy types, also known as infinity-groupoids. The problem of higher structures is that of constructing the homotopy types needed…
This paper is a continuation of our 2005 paper on complex topology and its implication on invertibility (or non-invertibility). In this paper, we will try to classify the complexity of inversion into 3 different classes. We will use…
In order to make the fundamental group, one of the most well known invariants in algebraic topology, more useful and powerful some researchers have introduced and studied various topologies on the fundamental group from the beginning of the…
In this paper, we introduce and study sequential versions of several fibrewise homotopy invariants, including parametrized topological complexity, parametrized (subspace) homotopic distance. We investigate their basic properties, establish…
We present quantum complexity lower and upper bounds for independent set problems in graphs. In particular, we give quantum algorithms for computing a maximal and a maximum independent set in a graph. We present applications of these…
We construct a family of groups from suitable higher rank graphs which are analogues of the finite symmetric groups. We introduce homological invariants showing that many of our groups are, for example, not isomorphic to $nV$, when $n \geq…
Digital topological methods are often used on computing the topological complexity of digital images. We give new results on the relation between reducibility and digital contractibility in order to determine the topological complexity of a…
We consider aspects of the geometry and topology of nilpotent orbits in finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebras. In particular, we give the equivariant cohomologies of the regular and minimal nilpotent orbits with respect to the…
