Given a space X, we study the homotopy type of ${\mathcal B}_n(X)$ the space obtained as "the union of all (n-1)-simplexes spanned by points in X". This is a space encountered in non-linear analysis under the name of "space of barycenters"…
Links of singularity and generalized algebraic links are ways of constructing three-manifolds and smooth links inside them from potentially singular complex algebraic surfaces and complex curves inside them. We prove that knot lattice…
We introduce a refinement of Bar-Natan homology for involutive links, extending the work of Lobb-Watson and Sano. We construct a new suite of numerical invariants and derive bounds for the genus of equivariant cobordisms between strongly…
We review the construction and context of a stable homotopy refinement of Khovanov homology.
Bar-Natan used Chinese characters to show that finite type invariants classify string links up to homotopy. In this paper, I construct the correct spaces of chord diagrams and Chinese characters for links up to homotopy. I use these spaces…
We propose a refinement of the Betti numbers and of the homology with coefficients in a field of a compact ANR in the presence of a continuous real valued function. The refinement of Betti numbers consists of finite configurations of points…
A qualgebra $G$ is a set having two binary operations that satisfy compatibility conditions which are modeled upon a group under conjugation and multiplication. We develop a homology theory for qualgebras and describe a classifying space…
We construct a stable homotopy refinement of quantum annular homology, a link homology theory introduced by Beliakova, Putyra and Wehrli. For each $r\geq 2$ we associate to an annular link $L$ a naive $\mathbb{Z}/r\mathbb{Z}$-equivariant…
This paper establishes an isomorphism between the Bar-Natan skein module of the solid torus with a particular boundary curve system and the homology of the (n,n) Springer variety. The results build on Khovanov's work with crossingless…
A spectral sequence is established, whose $E_{2}$ page is Bar-Natan's variant of Khovanov homology and which abuts to a deformation of instanton homology for knots and links. This spectral sequence arises as a specialization of a spectral…
Banagl's method of intersection spaces allows to modify certain types of stratified pseudomanifolds near the singular set in such a way that the rational Betti numbers of the modified spaces satisfy generalized Poincar\'{e} duality in…
Using Bar-Natan's Khovanov homology we define a homology theory for coloured, oriented, framed links. We then compute this explicitly.
A periodic cell complex, $K$, has a finite representation as the quotient space, $q(K)$, consisting of equivalence classes of cells identified under the translation group acting on $K$. We study how the Betti numbers and cycles of $K$ are…
The connected stable rank and the general stable rank are homotopy invariants for Banach algebras, whereas the Bass stable rank and the topological stable rank should be thought of as dimensional invariants. This paper studies the two…
In this paper we present the notion of smooth CW complexes given by attaching cubes on the category of diffeological spaces, and we study their smooth homotopy structures related to the homotopy extension property.
We construct a version of differential $K$-theory based on smooth Banach manifold models for the homotopy types $B \mathrm U\times Z$ and $\mathrm U$ that appear in the topological $K$-theory spectrum. These manifolds carry natural…
There exists a simplified Bar-Natan Khovanov complex for open 2-braids. The Khovanov cohomology of a knot diagram made by gluing tangles of this type is therefore often amenable to calculation. We lift this idea to the level of the…
We study categories of d-dimensional cobordisms from the perspective of Tillmann and Galatius-Madsen-Tillmann-Weiss. There is a category $C_\theta$ of closed smooth (d-1)-manifolds and smooth d-dimensional cobordisms, equipped with…
For a discrete group G, we represent the Bredon cohomology with local coefficients as the homotopy classes of maps in the category of equivaraint crossed complexes. Subsequently, we construct a naive parametrized G-spectrum, such that the…
We show that the complex Radon transform realizes an isomorphism between the space of residual $\bar\partial$-cohomologies of a locally complete intersection subvariety in a linearly concave domain of ${\C}P^n$ and the space of holomorphic…
