The stable mod 2 cohomologies of the spectra for connective real and complex K-theories are well known and easy to work with. However, the known bases are in terms of the anti-automorphism of Milnor basis elements. We offer simple bases in…
We study some power operations for ordinary $C_2$-equivariant homology with coefficients in the constant Mackey functor $\underline{\mathbb{F}}_2$. In addition to a few foundational results, we calculate the action of these power operations…
If E is a non-isotrivial elliptic curve over a global function field F of odd characteristic we show that certain Mordell-Weil groups of E have 1-dimensional eigenspace relative to a fixed complex ring class character provided that the…
The Steenrod operations (mod p) in Chow theory are defined for any prime p for a quasi-projective scheme, without appealing to the results of any domain but Milnor's K-theory. The new definition also gives a direct formula that depends only…
Let $E$ be a real Banach space. We study the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup $P(t)$ associated with the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator $$ Lf(x) = \frac12 {\rm Tr} Q D^2 f(x) + <Ax, Df(x)>.$$ Here $Q$ is a positive symmetric operator from $E^*$ to…
Equipping a non-equivariant topological $E_\infty$-operad with the trivial $G$-action gives an operad in $G$-spaces. For a $G$-spectrum, being an algebra over this operad does not provide any multiplicative norm maps on homotopy groups.…
This is an expository article about power operations and their connection with the study of highly structured ring spectra. In particular, we discuss Dyer-Lashof operations and their evolving role in the study of iterated loop spaces,…
We study the loop and suspension functors on the category of augmented $\mathbb{E}_n$-algebras. One application is to the formality of the cochain algebra of the $n$-sphere. We show that it is formal as an $\mathbb{E}_n$-algebra, also with…
We develop a calculus based on graph enumeration for $S_n$-equivariant motivic invariants of graphically stratified moduli spaces. We apply our theory to the Deligne--Mumford moduli space $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{g, n}$ and to the space of…
We determine all natural operations and their relations on the homotopy groups of spectral partition Lie algebras, which coincide with $\mathbb{F}_p$-linear topological Andr\'{e}-Quillen cohomology operations at any prime. We construct…
We extend some classical results of Bousfield on homology localizations and nilpotent completions to a presentably symmetric monoidal stable $\infty$-category $\mathscr{M}$ admitting a multiplicative left-complete $t$-structure. If $E$ is a…
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…
Suppose that $h$ and $g$ belong to the algebra $\B$ generated by the rational functions and an entire function $f$ of finite order on ${\Bbb C}^n$ and that $h/g$ has algebraic polar variety. We show that either $h/g\in\B$ or $f=q_1e^p+q_2$,…
Given smooth manifolds $M$ and $N$, manifold calculus studies the space of embeddings $\operatorname{Emb}(M,N)$ via the "embedding tower", which is constructed using the homotopy theory of presheaves on $M$. The same theory allows us to…
The aim of this article is to define and study a notion of unstable algebra over an operad that generalises the classical notion of unstable algebra over the Steenrod algebra. For this study we focus on the case of characteristic 2. We…
We show that in closed string topology and in open-closed string topology with one $D$-brane, higher genus stable string operations are trivial. This is a consequence of Harer's stability theorem and related stability results on the…
Unstable operations in a generalized cohomology theory E give rise to a functor from the category of algebras over E to itself which is a colimit of representable functors and a comonoid with respect to composition of such functors. In this…
Stable homotopy theory is governed by the principle that after inverting loop spaces, homotopy types become the representing objects for homology theories. We show that this principle extends to higher category theory: inverting…
We use the Steenrod algebra to study $CH^*BG$, the mod $p$ Chow ring of the classifying space of $G$. We describe a localization property which relates a given $G$ to its elementary abelian subgroups, and we study a number of particular…
In this paper the authors investigate the structure the restricted Lie algebra cohomology of p-nilpotent Lie algebras with trivial p-power operation. Our study is facilitated by a spectral sequence whose $E_{2}$-term is the tensor product…
