In this paper, we introduce the notion of $G_\infty$-ring spectra. These are globally equivariant homotopy types with a structured multiplication, giving rise to power operations on their equivariant homotopy and cohomology groups. We…

We define quasicategories of E_n-structured coalgebras, bialagebras and comodules. We show that: n-fold loop spaces, suspension spectra thereof, descent data for maps of E_n-ring spectra, descent corings of morphisms of E_n-ring spectra and…

Let $R$ be an $E_\infty$-ring spectrum. Given a map $\zeta$ from a space $X$ to $BGL_1R$, one can construct a Thom spectrum, $X^\zeta$, which generalises the classical notion of Thom spectrum for spherical fibrations in the case $R=S^0$,…

This paper studies the foundations of the geometric fixed point functor in multiplicative equivariant stable homotopy theory. We introduce a new class of equivariant orthogonal spectra called generalized orbit desuspension spectra and…

We develop a variant of calculus of functors, and use it to relate the gauge group G(P) of a principal bundle P over M to the Thom ring spectrum (P^Ad)^{-TM}. If P has contractible total space, the resulting Thom ring spectrum is LM^{-TM},…

This paper establishes a connection between equivariant ring spectra and Witt vectors in the sense of Dress and Siebeneicher. Given a commutative ringspectrum T in the highly structured sense, that is, an E-infinity-ringspectrum, with…

The deformation complex of an algebra over a colored PROP P is defined in terms of a minimal (or, more generally, cofibrant) model of P. It is shown that it carries the structure of an L_\infty-algebra which induces a graded Lie bracket on…

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…

The topological Hochschild homology THH(R) of a commutative S-algebra (E_infty ring spectrum) R naturally has the structure of a commutative R-algebra in the strict sense, and of a Hopf algebra over R in the homotopy category. We show,…

We show that the bounded derived category of regular holonomic D-modules on a smooth variety is equivalent to the homotopy catgory of compact (or constructible) modules over the motivic ring spectrum $H_{dR}$ representing algebraic de Rham…

For simple graphs $G$ and $H$, the Hom complex $\mathrm{Hom}(G,H)$ is a polyhedral complex whose vertices are the graph homomorphisms $G\to H$ and whose edges connect the pairs of homomorphisms which differ in a single vertex of $G$. Hom…

For a finite group $G$, there is a map $RO(G) \to {\rm Pic}(Sp^G)$ from the real representation ring of $G$ to the Picard group of $G$-spectra. This map is not known to be surjective in general, but we prove that when $G$ is cyclic this map…

Every homology or cohomology theory on a category of E-infinity ring spectra is Topological Andre-Quillen homology or cohomology with appropriate coefficients. Analogous results hold for the category of A-infinity ring spectra and for…

A parametrized spectrum E is a family of spectra E_x continuously parametrized by the points x of a topological space X. We take the point of view that a parametrized spectrum is a bundle-theoretic geometric object. When R is a ring…
