We discuss how canonical and universal constructions, properties and characterizations interact with equality in the framework of Homotopy Type Theory, comparing it with Grothendieck's use of equality and shedding further light on…
For a finite group $G$, the so-called $G$-Mackey functors form an abelian category $M(G)$ that has many applications in the study of $G$-equivariant stable homotopy. One would expect that the derived category $D(M(G))$ would be similarly…
The `Folk Theorem' that a smooth action by a compact Lie group can be (canonically) resolved, by iterated blow up, to have unique isotropy type is proved in the context of manifolds with corners. This procedure is shown to capture the…
The dynamics of Gowdy vacuum spacetimes is considered in terms of Hubble-normalized scale-invariant variables, using the timelike area temporal gauge. The resulting state space formulation provides for a simple mechanism for the formation…
We call a diagram D absolutely cartesian if F(D) is homotopy cartesian for all homotopy functors F. This is a sensible notion for diagrams in categories C where Goodwillie's calculus of functors may be set up for functors with domain C. We…
We extend the theory of ambidexterity developed by M.J. Hopkins and J. Lurie by proving commutativity of the norm square induced from a weakly ambidextrous morphism by two Beck-Chevalley fibrations that are associated by a functor. By…
Let $H_n$ be the $n$-th group homology functor (with integer coeffcients) and let $\{G_i\} _ {i \in \mathbb{N}}$ be any tower of groups such that all maps $G_{i+1} \to G_i$ are surjective. In this work we study kernel and cokernel of the…
In this paper we develop homology and cohomology theories which play the same role for real projective varieties that Lawson homology and morphic cohomology play for projective varieties respectively. They have nice properties such as the…
The interplay between the diffeomorphism and conformal symmetries (a feature common in quantum field theories) is shown to be exhibited for the case of black holes in two dimensional classical Liouville theory. We show that although the…
The relation between covariant fracton gauge theory and Moller-Hayashi-Shirafuji theory of gravity is investigated. The former is the gauge theory of a rank-two symmetric tensor with gauge symmetry given by the double derivative of a scalar…
In this short paper we apply some recent techniques developed by Schonsheck, and subsequently Carr-Harper, in the context of operadic algebras in spectra -- on convergence of Bousfield-Kan completions and comparisons with convergence of the…
This work addresses problems on simultaneous Diophantine approximation on fractals, motivated by a long standing problem of Mahler regarding Cantor's middle $1/3$ set. We obtain the first instances where a complete analogue of Khintchine's…
Let M be a smooth manifold and V a Euclidean space. Let Ebar(M,V) be the homotopy fiber of the map from Emb(M,V) to Imm(M,V). This paper is about the rational homology of Ebar(M,V). We study it by applying embedding calculus and orthogonal…
We prove some semipositivity theorems for singular varieties coming from graded polarizable admissible variations of mixed Hodge structure. As an application, we obtain that the moduli functor of stable varieties is semipositive in the…
To connect arithmetic and ring-theoretic properties of rings of mixed characteristic with those of positive characteristic, we introduce monoidal maps for perfectoid towers. Using these maps, we discuss the almost integrality of perfectoid…
The universality classes of the quantum Hall transitions are considered in terms of fractal sets of dual topological quantum numbers filling factors, labelled by a fractal or Hausdorff dimension defined into the interval $1 < h < 2$ and…
We show that the main theorem of Morse theory holds for a large class of functions on singular spaces. The function must satisfy certain conditions extending the usual requirements on a manifold that Condition C holds and the gradient flow…
We obtain a structure theorem of the positive support of the $n$-th power of the Grover walk on $k$-regular graph whose girth is greater than $2(n-1)$. This structure theorem is provided by the parity of the amplitude of another quantum…
Experiments on fracture surface morphologies offer increasing amounts of data that can be analyzed using methods of statistical physics. One finds scaling exponents associated with correlation and structure functions, indicating a rich…
The gravitational force harbours a fundamental instability against collapse. In standard General Relativity without Quantum Mechanics, this implies the existence of black holes as natural, stable solutions of Einstein's equations. If one…
