This paper proves that the homotopy type of a pointed, simply-connected, 2-reduced simplicial set is determined by the chain-complex augmented by functorial diagonal and higher diagonal maps (a simple generalization of the ones used to…

We exploit a uniform recursive procedure using preferred contractions of targets $C_*$ to construct morphisms $B_* \to C_*$ between chain complexes in a wide variety of situations. Examples include classical Alexander-Whitney and…

We describe the dualization of the algebra of secondary cohomology operations in terms of generators extending the Milnor dual of the Steenrod algebra. In this way we obtain explicit formulae for the computation of the E_3-term of the Adams…

Let $F_2$ be the prime field of two elements and let $GL_s:= GL(s, F_2)$ be the general linear group of rank $s.$ Denote by $\mathscr A$ the Steenrod algebra over $F_2.$ The (mod-2) Lambda algebra, $\Lambda,$ is one of the tools to describe…

Based on a relative Wu theorem in \'etale cohomology, we study the compatibility of Steenrod operations on Chow groups and on \'etale cohomology. Using the resulting obstructions to algebraicity, we construct new examples of non-algebraic…

We propose a method for calculating cohomology operations for finite simplicial complexes. Of course, there exist well--known methods for computing (co)homology groups, for example, the reduction algorithm consisting in reducing the…

We consider the effect of higher twist operators of the Wilson operator product expansion in the structure function $F_{2}(x,Q^{2})$ at small-$x$, taking into account QCD effective charges whose infrared behavior is constrained by a…

We give a new construction of a weak form of Steenrod operations for Chow groups modulo a prime number p for a certain class of varieties. This class contains projective homogeneous varieties which are either split or over a field admitting…

In this paper we establish a formula for computing $d_2(sq^i(x))$ where $x$ is a permanent cycle in the $C_2$-equivariant Adams spectral sequence or the motivic Adams spectral sequence over $Spec(\mathbb{R})$. This requires establishing…

This two-page note gives a non-computational derivation of the dual Steenrod algebra as the automorphisms of the formal additive group. Instead of relying on computational tools like spectral sequences and Steenrod operations, the argument…

We calculate the formal analytic expansions of certain formal translations in a space of formal iterated logarithmic and exponential variables. The results show how the algebraic structure naturally involves the Stirling numbers of the…

We define a chain map of the form $\E(k)\otimes BA^{\otimes k}\longrightarrow BA$, where $\E$ is a combinatorial $E_\infty$-operad called the sequence operad, and $BA$ is the bar complex of an $\E$-algebra $A$. We see that Steenrod-type…

We compute the cohomology of the quotient algebra $\mathcal{A}(2)$ of the $\mathbb{R}$-motivic dual Steenrod algebra. We do so by running a $\rho$-Bockstein spectral sequence whose input is the cohomology of $\mathbb{C}$-motivic…

It has long been envisioned that the strength of the barcode invariant of filtered cellular complexes could be increased using cohomology operations. Leveraging recent advances in the computation of Steenrod squares, we introduce a new…

Using the recent work of Frankland and Spitzweck, we define Steenrod operations $P^{n}$ on the mod $p$ motivic cohomology of smooth varieties defined over a base field of characteristic $p$. We show that $P^{n}$ is the $p$th power on…

We show how to find the Steenrod operations in H^*(X) (the coefficients in F_p) given the diagonal morphism d_#:S_*(X)->S_*(X^p) and the action of the cyclic group C_p on S_*(X^p). Our construction needs no other data such as…

We prove a relationship between quantum Steenrod operations and the quantum connection. In particular there are operations extending the quantum Steenrod power operations that, when viewed as endomorphisms of equivariant quantum cohomology,…

Given a complex semisimple Lie algebra ${\mathfrak g}$ and a commutative ${\mathbb C}$-algebra $A$, let ${\mathfrak g}[A] = {\mathfrak g} \otimes A$ be the corresponding generalized current algebra. In this paper we explore questions…

We compute the Hochschild homology and cohomology of $A(1)$, the subalgebra of the $2$-primary Steenrod algebra generated by the first two Steenrod squares, $Sq^1$ and $Sq^2$. The computation is accomplished using several May-type spectral…

Let $V$ be an elementary abelian $2$-group and $X$ be a finite $V$-CW-complex. In this memoir we study two cochain complexes of modules over the mod2 Steenrod algebra $\mathrm{A}$, equipped with an action of $\mathrm{H}^{*}V$, the mod2…
