We show that if a complex has free finitely generated reduced homology groups for two consecutive dimensions and trivial homology for all other dimensions, then it must have the homotopy type of a wedge of spheres of two consecutive…
We construct new knot polynomials. Let $V$ be the standard solid torus in 3-space and let $pr$ be its standard projection onto an annulus. Let $M$ be the space of all smooth oriented knots in $V$ such that the restriction of $pr$ is an…
We relate the Gromov norm on homology classes to the harmonic norm on the dual cohomology and obtain double sided bounds in terms of the volume and other geometric quantities of the underlying manifold. Along the way, we provide comparisons…
Group cohomology of polynomial growth is defined for any finitely generated discrete group, using cochains that have polynomial growth with respect to the word length function. We give a geometric condition that guarantees that it agrees…
We prove the Novikov conjecture on oriented Cheeger spaces whose fundamental group satisfies the strong Novikov conjecture. A Cheeger space is a stratified pseudomanifold admitting, through a choice of ideal boundary conditions, an L2-de…
The classical Skolem--Noether Theorem [Giraud, 71] shows us (1) how we can assign to an Azumaya algebra $A$ on a scheme $X$ a cohomological Brauer class in $H^2(X,\mathbf G_m)$ and (2) how Azumaya algebras correspond to twisted vector…
In this paper, we first present a classification theorem of infinite-dimensional simple Novikov algebras over an algebraically closed field with characteristic 0. Then we classify all the irreducible modules of a certain…
We complete the discrete cluster categories of type $\mathbb{A}$ as defined by Igusa and Todorov, by embedding such a discrete cluster category inside a larger one, and then taking a certain Verdier quotient. The resulting category is a…
We will construct a loop space formalism for general relativity, and construct the Polyakov variables as connections for such a loop space. We will use these Polyakov variables to construct a dual theory of gravity beyond linear…
Inspired by bordered Floer homology, we describe a type A structure on a Khovanov homology for a tangle, which complements the type D structure in a previous paper. The type A structure is a differential module over a certain algebra. This…
The degree of a lattice polytope is a notion in Ehrhart theory that was studied quite intensively over the previous years. It is well-known that a lattice polytope has normalized volume one if and only if its degree is zero. Recently,…
We investigate a notion of $\times$-homotopy of graph maps that is based on the internal hom associated to the categorical product in the category of graphs. It is shown that graph $\times$-homotopy is characterized by the topological…
This paper is a continuation of Alternative to Morse-Novikov Theory for a closed 1-form(I), and establishes: a) a refinement of Poincar\'e duality to an equality between the configurations $^{BM} \delta^\omega$ and $\delta^\omega$ resp.…
This paper continues math.DG/9903140. Here we construct a linking form on the torsion part of middle dimensional extended L^2 homology and cohomology of odd-dimensional manifolds. We give a geometric necessary condition when this linking…
We construct an $A_{\infty}$-structure on the Ext-groups of hermitian holomorphic vector bundles on a compact complex manifold. We propose a generalization of the homological mirror conjecture due to Kontsevich. Namely, we conjecture that…
The neighborhood complex of a graph was introduced by Lov\'asz to provide topological lower bounds on chromatic number. More general homomorphism complexes of graphs were further studied by Babson and Kozlov. Such `Hom complexes' are also…
We study notions of homotopy in the Newtonian space $N^{1,p}(X;Y)$ of Sobolev type maps between metric spaces. After studying the properties and relations of two different notions we prove a compactness result for sequences in homotopy…
We modify the definition of the Khovanov complex for oriented links in a thickening of an oriented surface to obtain a triply graded homological link invariant with a new homotopical grading.
We introduce a Poisson version of the graded twist of a graded associative algebra and prove that every graded Poisson structure on a connected graded polynomial ring $A:=\Bbbk[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ is a graded twist of a unimodular Poisson…
