The purpose of this paper is to introduce $N_k(\ell)$-maps ($1\le k,\ell\le\infty$), which describe higher homotopy normalities, and to study their basic properties and examples. An $N_k(\ell)$-map is defined with higher homotopical…

We show that for every subset X of a closed surface M^2 and every basepoint x_0, the natural homomorphism from the fundamental group to the first shape homotopy group, is injective. In particular, if X is a proper compact subset of M^2,…

We determine the Artin-Mazur \'etale homotopy types of moduli stacks of polarised abelian schemes using transcendental methods and derive some arithmetic properties of the \'etale fundamental groups of these moduli stacks. Finally we…

We develop theory of (possibly large) cotilting objects of injective dimension at most one in general Grothendieck categories. We show that such cotilting objects are always pure-injective and that they characterize the situation where the…

We investigate how the \'etale fundamental group controls local systems in characteristic $p$, namely $F$-divided sheaves. In analogy with Grothendieck-Malcev's results for discrete groups, we show that if a morphism $f \colon Y \to X$ of…

We prove that a finitely generated group contains a sequence of non-trivial elements which converge to the identity in every compact homomorphic image if and only if the group is not virtually abelian.

We show that Noetherian splinters ascend under essentially \'etale homomorphisms. Along the way, we also prove that the henselization of a Noetherian local splinter is always a splinter and that the completion of a local splinter with…

We show that discrete and classical homotopy theories are equivalent after localizing at n-equivalences for any non-negative integer n. By constructing an explicit homotopy inverse to the graph nerve functor associating an n-fibrant cubical…

In this paper, we describe an algorithm that, for a smooth connected curve $X$ over a field $k$ with normal completion having arithmetic genus $p_a(X)$, a finite locally constant sheaf $\mathcal A$ on $X_{et}$ of abelian groups of torsion…

The recently introduced A-homotopy groups for graphs are investigated. The main concern of the present article is the construction of an infinite cell complex, the homotopy groups of which are isomorphic to the A-homotopy groups of the…

While the topology of the space of all smooth immersed curves on the $2$-sphere $\mathbb{S}^2$ that start and end at given points in given directions is well known, it is an open problem to understand the homotopy type of its subspaces…

In this paper we analyse the topological group cohomology of finite-dimensional Lie groups. We introduce a technique for computing it (as abelian groups) for torus coefficients by the naturally associated long exact sequence. The upshot in…

In the present paper we discuss questions concerning the arithmetic resolution for etale cohomology. Namely, consider a smooth quasi-projective variety X over a field k together with the local scheme U at a point x. Let Y be a smooth proper…

Recently there has been growing interest in discrete homotopies and homotopies of graphs beyond treating graphs as 1-dimensional simplicial spaces. One such type of homotopy is $\times$-homotopy. Recent work by Chih-Scull has developed a…

Let A be the local ring at a point of a normal complex variety with completion R. Srinivas has asked about the possible images of the induced map from Cl A to Cl R over all geometric normal domains A with fixed completion R. We use…

A digraph is connected-homogeneous if any isomorphism between finite connected induced subdigraphs extends to an automorphism of the digraph. We consider locally-finite connected-homogeneous digraphs with more than one end. In the case that…

The notion of $\times$-homotopy from \cite{DocHom} is investigated in the context of the category of pointed graphs. The main result is a long exact sequence that relates the higher homotopy groups of the space $\Hom_*(G,H)$ with the…

For every finite abelian group $A$ and $n\geq 3$, we construct a finitely presented group defined by explicit generators and relations, such that its center is $\pi_n(\Sigma K(A,1))$.

Working in the soft-element (classical) viewpoint, we introduce \emph{soft bitopological groups}: soft groups endowed with two soft topologies such that the induced topologies on the set of soft elements make the soft-element group into a…

In this short note we prove that a graph product $G_\Gamma$ of finitely generated abelian groups is semicomplete -- that is the kernel of the natural homomorphism ${\rm Aut}(G_\Gamma)\to{\rm Aut}(G_\Gamma^{ab})$ induced by the…
