We prove that numerous negatively curved simply connected locally compact polyhedral complexes, admitting a discrete cocompact group of automorphisms, have automorphism groups which are locally compact, uncountable, non linear and virtually…
We provide a simple condition on rational cohomology for the total space of a pullback fibration over a connected sum to have the rational homotopy type of a connected sum, after looping. This takes inspiration from recent work of Jeffrey…
We develop a new, intrinsic, computationally friendly approach to Lie coalgebras through graph coalgebras, which are new and likely to be of independent interest. Our graph coalgebraic approach has advantages both in finding relations…
This article shows several new methods for proofs on Kan complexes while using them to give a compact introduction to the homotopy groups of these complexes. Then more advanced objects are studied starting with homology and the Hurewicz…
The space of degree d smooth projective hypersurfaces of CP n admits a scanning map to a certain space of sections. We compute a rational homotopy model of the action by conjugation of the group U (n + 1) on this space of sections, from…
This is the first in a series of papers in which we construct and study a new $p$-adic cohomology theory for varieties over Laurent series fields $k(\!(t)\!)$ in characteristic $p$. This will be a version of rigid cohomology, taking values…
A stable homology theory is defined for completely distributive CSL algebras in terms of the point-neighbourhood homology of the partially ordered set of meet-irreducible elements of the invariant projection lattice. This specialises to the…
For a Liouville domain $W$ satisfying $c_1(W)=0$, we propose in this note two versions of symplectic Tate homology $\underrightarrow{H}\underleftarrow{T}(W)$ and $\underleftarrow{H}\underrightarrow{T}(W)$ which are related by a canonical…
We prove a vanishing theorem for the twisted de Rham cohomology of a compact manifold.
Given a commutative ring $R$, a $\pi_1$-$R$-equivalence is a continuous map of spaces inducing an isomorphism on fundamental groups and an $R$-homology equivalence between universal covers. When $R$ is an algebraically closed field, Raptis…
We show that the de Rham theorem, interpreted as the isomorphism between distributional de Rham cohomology and simplicial homology in the dual dimension for a simplicial decomposition of a compact oriented manifold, is a straightforward…
Let G be a finite group scheme over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. Assume further that the connected component of G is unipotent. It is shown that the projectivity of a rational G-module can be detected on a…
In this paper, using Sullivan's approach to rational homotopy theory of simply-connected finite type CW complexes, we endow the $\mathbb{Q}$-vector space $\mathcal{E}xt_{C^{\ast}(X;\mathbb{Q})}(\mathbb{Q},C^{\ast}(X;\mathbb{Q}))$ with a…
This survey contains the main results in rational homotopy, from the beginning to the most recent ones. It makes the status of the art, gives a short presentation of some areas where rational homotopy has been used, and contains a lot of…
Algebras defined over fields of characteristic zero and positive characteristic usually do not behave the same way. However, for certain algebras, for example the group algebras, they behave the same way as the characteristic zero case at…
Spencer cohomology theory studies the cohomology of chain complexes of modules over the ring of differential operators $\mathscr{D}$ of a smooth analytic space. In this paper we give a generalisation of Spencer cohomology suitable for…
In this paper we find general criteria to ensure that, in an arbitrary o-minimal structure, the o-minimal cohomology without supports and with definably compact supports of a definable space with coefficients in a sheaf is invariant in…
The symplectic cohomology of certain symplectic manifolds $W$ with non-compact ends modelled on the positive symplectization of a compact contact manifold $Y$ is shown to vanish whenever there is a positive loop of contactomorphisms of $Y$…
In this paper, we compare two cohomology groups associated to Shimura varieties of PEL type, which are not proper over the base. One is the compactly supported l-adic cohomology, and the other is the nearby cycle cohomology, namely, the…
We prove that in a countable theory $T$ fully stable over a predicate $P$, any $\lam$-complete set $A$ has the $\lam$-existence property. This means that $A$ can be extended to a $\lam$-saturated model of $T$ without changing the $P$-part.…
