Equivariant complex $K$-theory and the equivariant sphere spectrum are two of the most fundamental equivariant spectra. For an odd $p$-group, we calculate the zeroth homotopy Green functor of the localization of the equivariant sphere…
We consider the moduli space of holomorphic principal bundles for reductive Lie groups over Riemann surfaces (possibly with boundaries) and equipped with meromorphic connections. We associate to this space a point-wise notion of quantum…
Consider a closed non-degenerate 3-form $\omega$ with an infinitesimal action of a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. Motivated by the fact that the observables associated to $\omega$ form a Lie 2-algebra, we introduce homotopy moment maps defined…
We compute the mod-2 cohomology of the collection of all symmetric groups as a Hopf ring, where the second product is the transfer product of Strickland and Turner. We first give examples of related Hopf rings from invariant theory and…
In the present article we discuss an approach to cohomological invariants of algebraic groups over fields of characteristic zero based on the Morava $K$-theories, which are generalized oriented cohomology theories in the sense of…
Let A be a based subspace of Y. Under the assumptions that Y is path-connected and that the reduced diagonal map of A induces the zero map in all mod 2 reduced homology groups, we compute a formula for the mod 2 reduced Poincar\'{e} series…
The spectrum of a semi-infinite quantum graph tube with square period cells is analyzed. The structure is obtained by rolling up a doubly periodic quantum graph into a tube along a period vector and then retaining only a semi-infinite half…
We uncover a somewhat surprising connection between spaces of multiplicative maps between $A_\infty$-ring spectra and topological Hochschild cohomology. As a consequence we show that such spaces become infinite loop spaces after looping…
In this work we construct from ground up a homotopy theory of C*-algebras. This is achieved in parallel with the development of classical homotopy theory by first introducing an unstable model structure and second a stable model structure.…
We study Jacobi matrices on trees whose coefficients are generated by multiple orthogonal polynomials. Hilbert space decomposition into an orthogonal sum of cyclic subspaces is obtained. For each subspace, we find generators and the…
We study modular approximations Q(l), l = 3,5, of the K(2)-local sphere at the prime 2 that arise from l-power degree isogenies of elliptic curves. We develop Hopf algebroid level tools for working with Q(l) and record Hill, Hopkins, and…
Techniques are presented for computing the cohomology of stable, holomorphic vector bundles over elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau threefolds. These cohomology groups explicitly determine the spectrum of the low energy, four-dimensional…
We consider $\text{SU}(2)$ Bogomolny equations on $\mathbb{R}^2\times\hat{S}^1$ and use the spectral curve defined by the holonomy in the periodic direction to approximate the fields in the limit of large size to period ratio. Symmetries of…
Families of hyper-elliptic curves which describe the quantum moduli spaces of vacua of $N=2$ supersymmetric $SO(N_c)$ gauge theories coupled to $N_f$ flavors of quarks in the vector representation are constructed. The quantum moduli spaces…
Morava $E$-theory $E$ is an $E_\infty$-ring with an action of the Morava stabilizer group $\Gamma$. We study the derived stack $\operatorname{Spf} E/\Gamma$. Descent-theoretic techniques allow us to deduce a theorem of…
We compute the first cohomology spaces $H^1(\mathfrak{osp}(1|2);\mathfrak{D}_{\lambda,\mu})$ ($\lambda, \mu\in\mathbb{R}$) of the Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$ with coefficients in the superspace $\mathfrak{D}_{\lambda,\mu}$ of…
Let $A$ be a unital $C^*$-algebra. Its unitary group, $UA$, contains a wealth of topological information about $A$. However, the homotopy type of $UA$ is out of reach even for $A = M_2(\CC)$. There are two simplifications which have been…
Let V(0) be the mod 2 Moore spectrum and let C be the supersingular elliptic curve over F_4 defined by the Weierstrass equation y^2+y=x^3. Let F_C be its formal group law and E_C be the spectrum classifying the deformations of F_C. The…
In this paper, we determine the first cohomology of the monochromatic comodule $M^1_2$ at an odd prime, and apply the results to show non-trivialities of some products of beta and gamma elements in the homotopy groups of the Smith-Toda…
We show that after rationalization there is a homotopy fiber sequence BBU -> K(ku) -> K(Z). We interpret this as a correspondence between the virtual 2-vector bundles over a space X and their associated anomaly bundles over the free loop…
