We compute the kernel of the stabilization map for $K_1$-functors modeled on split Chevalley groups of types $B_l, C_l, E_l$ one step below the stable range. For the groups of type $B_l$ this implies early injective stability for $K_1(B_l,…
This note proves the orbital stability in the energy space $H^{1/2}$ of the sum of widely-spaced 1-solitons for the Benjamin-Ono equation, with speeds arranged so as to avoid collisions.
The orthogonal groups are a series of simple Lie groups associated to symmetric bilinear forms. There is no analogous series associated to symmetric trilinear forms. We introduce an infinite dimensional group-like object that can be viewed…
Let X be a smooth projective curve of genus g \geq 2 defined over a field of characteristic two. We give examples of stable orthogonal bundles with unstable underlying vector bundles and use them to give counterexamples to Behrend's…
We study commutative complex $K$-theory, a generalised cohomology theory built from spaces of ordered commuting tuples in the unitary groups. We show that the spectrum for commutative complex $K$-theory is stably equivalent to the…
We define a birational version of the stability of cotangent sheaves for complex projective manifolds, and more generally for smooth orbifolds. We then show, using standard conjectures in birational classification, that these cotangent…
We establish homological stability for automorphisms of symmetric bilinear forms over a class of principal ideal domains that includes all fields, the integers, the Gaussian integers, and the Eisenstein integers. In conjunction with…
We investigate stability properties of the reductive Borel-Serre categories; these were introduced as a model for unstable algebraic K-theory in previous work. We see that they exhibit better homological stability properties than the…
Commutative K-theory, a cohomology theory built from spaces of commuting matrices, has been explored in recent work of Adem, G\'{o}mez, Gritschacher, Lind, and Tillman. In this article, we use unstable methods to construct explicit…
We establish a homotopy-theoretic description of the homology of stable moduli spaces of $(2n+1)$-dimensional manifold triads $(N, \partial^h N, \partial^v N)$ with fixed $\partial^v N$, whenever $n \geq 3$ and $(N, \partial^h N)$ is…
The space of Bridgeland stability conditions on the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on P2 has a principle connected component Stab^\dag(P2). We show that Stab^\dag(P2) is the union of geometric and algebraic stability…
Algebraic K-theory is the stable homotopy theory of homotopy theories, and it interacts with algebraic structures accordingly. In particular, we prove the Deligne Conjecture for algebraic K-theory.
In this paper we explore the structure of certain generalized isometries of the special orthogonal group $SO(n)$ which are transformations that leave any member of a large class of generalized distance measures invariant. This gives us a…
Deformation K-theory associates to each discrete group G a spectrum built from spaces of finite dimensional unitary representations of G. In all known examples, this spectrum is 2-periodic above the rational cohomological dimension of G…
In this work we consider the well posed version of the Kaup-Broer-Kuperschmidt system in two dimensions. We numerically construct soliton type solutions and show that they are unstable both against dispersion and singularity formation.…
We describe for each postive integer $k$ a 3-manifold with Heegaard surfaces of genus $2k$ and $2k-1$ such that any common stabilization of these two surfaces has genus at least $3k-1$. We also show that for every positive $n$, there is a…
In this paper the space of almost commuting elements in a Lie group is studied through a homotopical point of view. In particular a stable splitting after one suspension is derived for these spaces and their quotients under conjugation. A…
We compute the stable homology of orthogonal and symplectic groups over a finite field k with coefficients coming from an usual endofunctor F of k-vector spaces (exterior, symmetric, divided powers...), that is, for all natural integer i,…
For an abelian surface $A$, we explicitly construct two new families of stable vector bundles on the generalized Kummer variety $K_n(A)$ for $n\geqslant 2$. The first is the family of tautological bundles associated to stable bundles on…
We construct equivariant quantization of a special family of Levi conjugacy classes of the complex orthogonal group $SO(N)$, whose stabilizer contains a Cartesian factor $SO(2)\times SO(P)$, $1\leqslant P<N$, $P\equiv N \mod 2$.
