This mostly expository paper records some basic facts about towers of homotopy fiber sequences. We give a proof that a pairing of towers induces a pairing of associated spectral sequences, for towers of spaces and towers of spectra.

This paper investigates mapping spaces between enriched operads and relates these spaces to those between operadic bimodules via convenient fiber sequences. The main statements hold for simplicial operads, operads enriched in simplicial…

We consider real spectra, collections of Z/(2)-spaces indexed over Z oplus Z alpha with compatibility conditions. We produce fibrations connecting the homotopy fixed points and the spaces in these spectra. We also evaluate the map which is…

The higher Leray-Serre spectral sequence associated with a tower of fibrations represents a generalization of the classical Leray-Serre spectral sequence of a fibration. In this work, we present algorithms to compute higher Leray-Serre…

We consider Milnor's "tower algorithm" in the space of piecewise monotone maps, an iterative algorithm on the space of metrics which unifies, on the one hand, Thurston's iterative scheme which converges to holomorphic models, and, on the…

We introduce a new combinatorial object called tower diagrams and prove fundamental properties of these objects. We also introduce an algorithm that allows us to slide words to tower diagrams. We show that the algorithm is well-defined only…

We construct sphere fibrations over $(n-1)$-connected $2n$-manifolds such that the total space is a connected sum of sphere products. More precisely, for $n$ even, we construct fibrations $S^{n-1} \to \#^{k-1}(S^n \times S^{2n-1}) \to M_k$,…

We study the beginning of the Taylor tower, supplied by manifold calculus of functors, for the space of r-immersions, which are immersions without r-fold self-intersections. We describe the first r layers of the tower and discuss the…

Latent fibrations are an adaptation, appropriate for categories of partial maps (as presented by restriction categories), of the usual notion of fibration. The paper initiates the development of the basic theory of latent fibrations and…

In this note we define fibrations of topological stacks and establish their main properties. We prove various standard results about fibrations (fiber homotopy exact sequence, Leray-Serre and Eilenberg-Moore spectral sequences, etc.). We…

We develop some theory of double fibration transforms where the cycle space is a smooth manifold and apply it to complex projective space.

We study a connection between mapping spaces of bimodules and of infinitesimal bimodules over an operad. As main application and motivation of our work, we produce an explicit delooping of the manifold calculus tower associated to the space…

Cohen, Moore, and Neisendorfer's work on the odd primary homotopy theory of spheres and Moore spaces, as well as the first author's work on the secondary suspension, predicted the existence of a p-local fibration S^2n-1 --> T --> \Omega…

A tower is a sequence of simplicial complexes connected by simplicial maps. We show how to compute a filtration, a sequence of nested simplicial complexes, with the same persistent barcode as the tower. Our approach is based on the coning…

We derive spectral sequences for the intersection homology of stratified fibrations and approximate tubular neighborhoods in manifold stratified spaces. These neighborhoods include regular neighborhoods in PL stratified spaces.

The dynamics of ideal four-wave mixing in optical fiber is reconstructed by taking advantage of the combination of experimental measurements with supervised machine learning strategies. The training data consist of power-dependent spectral…

We carefully present an elementary proof of the well known theorem that each homotopy group (or, in degree zero, pointed set) of the inverse limit of a tower of fibrations maps naturally onto the inverse limit of the homotopy groups (or, in…

We show that the Kontsevich operad, as an operad with multiplication, provides a model for the Taylor tower of the functor defined by taking the homotopy fiber of the inclusion of embeddings of an interval in a cube to the corresponding…

In earlier work, we introduced the `Monster tower', a tower of fibrations associated to planar curves. We constructed an algorithm for classifying its points with respect to the equivalence relation generated by the action of the contact…

For an integer $r\ge 2$, the space of $r$-immersions of $M$ in $\R^n$ is defined to be the space of immersions of $M$ in $\R^n$ such that at most $r-1$ points of $M$ are mapped to the same point in $\R^n$. The space of $r$-immersions lies…
