We will use flat divisors, and canonically associated singular holomorphic foliations, to investigate some of the geometry of compact complex manifolds. The paper is mainly concerned with three distinct problems: the existence of…
In this article we study the higher topological complexity ${\sf TC}_r(X)$ in the case when $X$ is an aspherical space, $X=K(\pi, 1)$ and $r\ge 2$. We give a characterisation of ${\sf TC}_r(K(\pi, 1))$ in terms of classifying spaces for…
Topological photonics provides a powerful framework to describe and understand many nontrivial wave phenomena in complex electromagnetic platforms. The topological index of a physical system is an abstract global property that depends on…
We prove that the homotopy theory of cofibration categories is equivalent to the homotopy theory of cocomplete quasicategories. This is achieved by presenting both homotopy theories as fibration categories and constructing an explicit…
We study the higher (sequential) topological complexity, a numerical homotopy invariant for the planar polygon spaces. For these spaces with a small genetic codes and dimension $m$, Davis showed that their topological complexity is either…
We prove the formula $TC(G\ast H)=\max\{TC(G), TC(H), cd(G\times H)\}$ for the topological complexity of the free product of discrete groups with cohomological dimension >2.
In this short expository note, we discuss, with plenty of examples, the bestiary of fibrations in quasicategory theory. We underscore the simplicity and clarity of the constructions these fibrations make available to end-users of higher…
Understanding the complex hierarchical topology of functional brain networks is a key aspect of functional connectivity research. Such topics are obscured by the widespread use of sparse binary network models which are fundamentally…
Digital topology is part of the ongoing endeavour to understand and analyze digitized images. With a view to supporting this endeavour, many notions from algebraic topology have been introduced into the setting of digital topology. But some…
We establish a stable homotopy-theoretic version of a recent result of Farber and Weinberger on the fibrewise topological complexity of sphere bundles and prove, by closely parallel methods, a similar result for real, complex and…
For a smooth, closed $n$-manifold $M$, we define an upper semi-continuous integer-valued complexity function on $H^1(M;{\mathbb R})$ using Morse theory. This measures how far an integral class is from being a fiber of a fibration. The fact…
In 2010, M. Sakai and the first author showed that the topological complexity of a space $X$ coincides with the fibrewise unpointed L-S category of a pointed fibrewise space $\operatorname{pr}_{1} : X \times X \to X$ with the diagonal map…
The Lusternik-Schnirelmann category and topological complexity are important invariants of manifolds (and more generally, topological spaces). We study the behavior of these invariants under the operation of taking the connected sum of…
The paper deals with the problem of reconstructing the topological structure of a network of dynamical systems. A distance function is defined in order to evaluate the "closeness" of two processes and a few useful mathematical properties…
We define and develop a homotopy invariant notion for the sequential topological complexity of a map $f:X\to Y,$ denoted $TC_{r}(f)$, that interacts with $TC_{r}(X)$ and $TC_{r}(Y)$ in the same way Jamie Scott's topological complexity map…
We define the topological complexity sequence of a group as the sequence of topological complexities of its Milnor constructions. This sequence may be regarded as an intrinsic refinement of the topological complexity of a group and, unlike…
Reasoning about weak higher categorical structures constitutes a challenging task, even to the experts. One principal reason is that the language of set theory is not invariant under the weaker notions of equivalence at play, such as…
The neuronal networks in the mammals cortex are characterized by the coexistence of hierarchy, modularity, short and long range interactions, spatial correlations, and topographical connections. Particularly interesting, the latter type of…
In this paper, we introduce relative LS category of a map and study some of its properties. Then we introduce `higher topological complexity' of a map, a homotopy invariant. We give a cohomological lower bound and compare it with previously…
We classify exterior fibrations in the exterior homotopy category. As a result we also classify proper fibrations between CW-complexes.
