The singular simplicial set Sing(X) of a space X completely captures its weak homotopy type. We introduce a category of_controlled sets_, yielding _simplicial controlled sets_, such that one can functorially produce a singular simplicial…

Let $G$ be a complex reductive group. A folklore result asserts the existence of an $\mathbb{E}_2$-algebra structure on the Ran Grassmannian of $G$ over $\mathbb{A}^1_{\mathbb{C}}$, seen as a topological space with the complex-analytic…

Complex band structure generalizes conventional band structure by also considering wavevectors with complex components. In this way, complex band structure describes both the bulk-propagating states from conventional band structure and the…

In this note we describe a family of arguments that link the homotopy-type of a) the diffeomorphism group of the disc $D^n$, b) the space of co-dimension one embedded spheres in a sphere and c) the homotopy-type of the space of co-dimension…

Over a monoidal model category, under some mild assumptions, we equip the categories of colored PROPs and their algebras with projective model category structures. A Boardman-Vogt style homotopy invariance result about algebras over…

We describe the category of homotopy coalgebras, concentrating on properties of relatively cofree homotopy coalgebras, morphisms and coderivations from an ordinary coalgebra to a relatively cofree homotopy coalgebra, morphisms and…

This article introduces descriptive cellular homology on cell complexes, which is an extension of J.H.C. Whitehead's CW topology. A main result is that a descriptive cellular complex is a topology on fibres in a fibre bundle. An application…

We propose a definition of ``nonabelian mixed Hodge structure'' together with a construction associating to a smooth projective variety $X$ and to a nonabelian mixed Hodge structure $V$, the ``nonabelian cohomology of $X$ with coefficients…

The current work is motivated by the papers $[B_3]$, $[B_6]$, $[Be]$, $[Be-Tu]$. In particular, using Theorem 3.7 of $[B_3]$ and methods developed in this paper, the spectral and strong homology groups of continuous maps were defined and…

On a Hamiltonian $G$-manifold $X$, we define the notion of $G$-invariance of coisotropic A-branes $B$. Under neat assumptions, we give a Marsden-Weinstein-Meyer type construction of a coisotropic A-brane $B_{\operatorname{red}}$ on $X // G$…

We construct a Spanier-Whitehead type duality functor relating finite $\mathcal{C}$-spectra to finite $\mathcal{C}^{\mathrm{op}}$-spectra and prove that every $\mathcal{C}$-homology theory is given by taking the homotopy groups of a…

This paper studies the homotopy invariant $\cat(X,\xi)$ introduced in \cite{farbe2}. Given a finite cell-complex $X$, we study the function $\xi\mapsto \cat(X,\xi)$ where $\xi$ varies in the cohomology space $H^1(X;\R)$. Note that…

Bivariant (equivariant) K-theory is the standard setting for non-commutative topology. We may carry over various techniques from homotopy theory and homological algebra to this setting. Here we do this for some basic notions from…

This paper presents a framework based on matrices of monoids for the study of coupled cell networks. We formally prove within the proposed framework, that the set of results about invariant synchrony patterns for unweighted networks also…

We study the relation between the linear stability of almost-symmetries and the geometry of the Banach spaces on which these transformations are defined. We show that any transformation between finite dimensional Banach spaces that…

We study the space of link maps, which are smooth maps from the disjoint union of manifolds P and Q to a manifold N such that the images of P and Q are disjoint. We give a range of dimensions, interpreted as the connectivity of a certain…

Let V be a complete discrete valuation ring with uniformiser p. We introduce an invariant of Banach V-algebras called local cyclic homology. This invariant is related to analytic cyclic homology for complete, bornologically torsionfree…

We construct a CW decomposition $C_n$ of the $n$-dimensional half cube in a manner compatible with its structure as a polytope. For each $3 \leq k \leq n$, the complex $C_n$ has a subcomplex $C_{n, k}$, which coincides with the clique…

Let M be a monoidal category endowed with a distinguished class of weak equivalences and with appropriately compatible classifying bundles for monoids and comonoids. We define and study homotopy-invariant notions of normality for maps of…

We show that the category of N-complexes has a Str\om model structure, meaning the weak equivalences are the chain homotopy equivalences. This generalizes the analogous result for the category of chain complexes (N = 2). The trivial objects…
