Associated to a differential character is an integral cohomology class, referred to as the characteristic class, and a closed differential form, referred to as the curvature. The characteristic class and curvature are equal in de Rham…

While higher bundles are of clear relevance to higher gauge theory, examples other than abelian bundle gerbes are hard to come across. One would in particular like to see 2-bundles where the structure 2-group is the String 2-group…

We show a first rectification result for homotopy chain coalgebras over a field. On the one hand, we consider the $\infty$-category obtained by localizing differential graded coalgebras over an operad with respect to quasi-isomorphisms; on…

We put a model structure on the category of categories internal to simplicial sets whose weak equivalences are reflected by the nerve functor to bisimplicial sets with Rezk's model structure. This model structure is shown to be Quillen…

This article describes a natural piecewise Euclidean bi-simplicial cell structure for the space of $n$-element multisets in a fixed Euclidean rectangle. In particular, we highlight some connections with spaces of complex polynomials and…

Homogeneous compatible almost complex structures on symplectic manifolds are studied, focusing on those which are special, meaning that their Chern-Ricci form is a multiple of the symplectic form. Non Chern-Ricci flat ones are proven to be…

Motivated by the problem of constructing explicit geometric string structures, we give a rigid model for bundle 2-gerbes, and define connective structures thereon. This model is designed to make explicit calculations easier in applications…

We discuss the construction of finite element spaces of differential forms which satisfy the crucial assumptions of the finite element exterior calculus, namely that they can be assembled into subcomplexes of the de Rham complex which admit…

Simplicial objects $\mathsf{sC}$ in descent categories $\mathsf{C}$, as introduced by Behrend and Getzler, provide a context in which to study higher stacks. In this note, we extend the construction of the canonical cocycle of a smooth…

We introduce and investigate bucolic complexes, a common generalization of systolic complexes and of CAT(0) cubical complexes. They are defined as simply connected prism complexes satisfying some local combinatorial conditions. We study…

Let $A$ be a bi-Koszul algebra, we describe all possible $A_\infty$-algebra structures on the Ext-algebra $E(A)$, and prove that $E(A)$ must be $[m_2, m_3]$-finitely generated. An equivalent description for a connected graded algebra to be…

To a tree of semi-simple algebras we associate a qurve (or formally smooth algebra) S. We introduce a Zariski- and etale quiver describing the finite dimensional representations of S. In particular, we show that all quotient varieties of…

Generalised almost complex structures $\mathcal J$ on transitive Courant algebroids $E$ are studied in terms of their components with respect to a splitting $E\cong TM \oplus T^*M \oplus \mathcal G$, where $M$ denotes the base of $E$ and…

We construct 4d superconformal field theories (SCFTs) whose Coulomb branches have singular complex structures. This implies, in particular, that their Coulomb branch coordinate rings are not freely generated. Our construction also gives…

With this paper, we gain a better understanding of the set of near-field structures on a fixed scalar group. If we were able to describe all near-field structures on a fixed scalar group, we could describe all near-vector spaces. The…

For a torsion-free virtually polycyclic group $\Gamma$, we give a canonical homomorphism form certain finite-dimensional cochain complex to the $\Q$-polynomial de Rham complex of the simplicial classifying space $B\Gamma$ which induces a…

A discrete (finite-difference) analogue of differential forms is considered, defined on simplicial complexes, including triangulations of continuous manifolds. Various operations are explicitly defined on these forms, including exterior…

The purpose of this paper is to study the structure and the algebraic varieties of Hom-associative algebras. We give characterize multiplicative simple Hom-associative algebras and show some examples deforming the $2\times 2$-matrix algebra…

Utilizing previously established results concerning costratification in relative tensor-triangular geometry, we classify the colocalizing subcategories of the singularity category of a locally hypersurface ring and then we generalize this…

This paper is devoted to study multiplicity and regularity as well as to present some classifications of complex analytic sets. We present an equivalence for complex analytical sets, namely blow-spherical equivalence and we receive several…
