Following Cieliebak, Fukaya, Latschev and Volkov, we construct an IBL-infinity chain model for equivariant string topology on cyclic Hochschild cochains of de Rham cohomology. We study its properties and perform explicit computations.
We construct chain-level $S^1$-equivariant string topology for each simply connected closed manifold. This amounts to constructing a Maurer-Cartan element for the canonical involutive Lie bialgebra (IBL) structure on the dual cyclic bar…
We introduce a periodic form of the iterated algebraic K-theory of ku, the (connective) complex K-theory spectrum, as well as a natural twisting of this cohomology theory by higher gerbes. Furthermore, we prove a form of topological…
In this article, we give a concise summary of $L_\infty$-algebras viewed in terms of Chevalley-Eilenberg algebras, Weil algebras and invariant polynomials and their use in defining connections in higher gauge theory. Using this, we discuss…
Symplectic invariants introduced in math-ph/0702045 can be computed for an arbitrary spectral curve. For some examples of spectral curves, those invariants can solve loop equations of matrix integrals, and many problems of enumerative…
We define the notion of a twisted topological graph algebra associated to a topological graph and a $1$-cocycle on its edge set. We prove a stronger version of a Vasselli's result. We expand Katsura's results to study twisted topological…
We give a construction of an L-infinity map from any L-infinity algebra into its truncated Chevalley-Eilenberg complex as well as its cyclic and A-infinity analogues. This map fits with the inclusion into the full Chevalley-Eilenberg…
Let $n$ be a nonnegative integer, we use ribbon $n-$graph diagrams and the Yamada polynomial skein relations to construct an algebra ${\mathcal Y}_n$ which is shown to be closely related to the Temerley-Lieb Algebra. We prove that the…
We study twists of supergravity theories and supersymmetric field theories, using a version of the pure spinor superfield formalism. Our results show that, just as the component fields of supersymmetric multiplets are the vector bundles…
We present a finite-dimensional and smooth formulation of string structures on spin bundles. It uses trivializations of the Chern-Simons 2-gerbe associated to this bundle. Our formulation is particularly suitable to deal with string…
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…
A twisted commutative algebra is (for us) a commutative $\mathbf{Q}$-algebra equipped with an action of the infinite general linear group. In such algebras the "$\mathbf{GL}$-prime" ideals assume the duties fulfilled by prime ideals in…
When solving data analysis problems it is important to integrate prior knowledge and/or structural invariances. This paper contributes by a novel framework for incorporating algebraic invariance structure into kernels. In particular, we…
For the associative algebra $A(\mathfrak g)$ of an infinite-dimensional Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$, we introduce twisted fiber bundles over arbitrary compact topological spaces. Fibers of such bundles are given by elements of algebraic…
The Temperley-Lieb and Brauer algebras and their cyclotomic analogues, as well as the partition algebra, are all examples of twisted semigroup algebras. We prove a general theorem about the cellularity of twisted semigroup algebras of…
In the background effective field theory of heterotic string theory, the Green-Schwarz anomaly cancellation mechanism plays a key role. Here we reinterpret it and its magnetic dual version in terms of differential twisted String- and…
Chas and Sullivan introduced string homology, which is the equivariant homology of the loop space with the $S^1$ action on loops by rotation. Craig Westerland computed the string homology for spheres with coefficients in $\mathbb{Z}…
We confirm the intuition that a string theory which is perturbatively infrared finite is automatically perturbatively ultraviolet finite. Our derivation based on the asymptotics of the Selberg trace formula for the Greens function on a…
The aim of this work is to investigate the structure of some skew twisted algebras, when the coefficient ring is a localization of the polynomial ring over the field of characteristic zero, and an involution is provided. A parallel…
We study elliptic fibrations by analyzing suitable deformations of the fibrations and vanishing cycles. We introduce geometric string junctions and describe some of their properties. We show how the structure of the geometric string…
