A bicategory approach to differential cohomology is presented. Based on the axioms of Bunke-Schick, a symmetric monoidal groupoid is associated to differential refinements of cohomology theories. It is proven that such differential…
Let $G$ be a countable monoid and let $A$ be an Artinian group (resp. an Artinian module). Let $\Sigma \subset A^G$ be a closed subshift which is also a subgroup (resp. a submodule) of $A^G$. Suppose that $\Gamma$ is a finitely generated…
In view of the Segal construction each category with a coherent operation gives rise to a cohomology theory. Similarly each open stable differential relation $R$ imposed on smooth maps of manifolds determines cohomology theories $k^*$ and…
We prove the graded braided commutativity of the Hochschild cohomology of $A$ with trivial coefficients, where $A$ is a braided Hopf algebra in the category of Yetter-Drinfeld modules over the group algebra of an abelian group, under some…
Inspired by a recent novel work of Good and Meddaugh, we establish fundamental connections between shadowing, finite order shifts, and ultrametric complete spaces. We develop a theory of shifts of finite type for infinite alphabets. We call…
A morphism of a category which is simultaneously an epimorphism and a monomorphism is called a bimorphism. In \cite{DR2} we gave characterizations of monomorphisms (resp. epimorphisms) in arbitrary pro-categories, pro-(C), where (C) has…
We investigate the equivariant and Hopf-cyclic cohomology of module algebras over Hopf algebroids and derive their Morita invariance. For this, we use the tools developed by McCarthy for $k$-linear categories and subsequently by Kaygun and…
In this paper, we introduce and study representation homology of topological spaces, which is a natural homological extension of representation varieties of fundamental groups. We give an elementary construction of representation homology…
We present a study of the homological algebra of bimodules over $A_\infty$-algebras endowed with an involution. Furthermore we introduce a derived description of Hochschild homology and cohomology for involutive $A_\infty$-algebras.
We geometrically construct a homology theory that generalizes the Euler characteristic mod 2 to objects in the unoriented cobordism ring N_*(X) of a topological space X. This homology theory Eh_* has coefficients Z/2 in every nonnegative…
A compact closed bicategory is a symmetric monoidal bicategory where every object is equipped with a weak dual. The unit and counit satisfy the usual "zig-zag" identities of a compact closed category only up to natural isomorphism, and the…
Michael Shub proved in 1969 that the topological conjugacy class of an expanding endomorphism on a compact manifold is determined by its homotopy type. In this article we generalize this result in two directions. In one direction we…
We study a naturally occurring $E_{\infty}$-subalgebra of the full $E_2$-Hochschild cochain complex arising from coherent cochains. For group rings and certain category algebras, these cochains detect $H^*(B {\cal{C}})$, the simplicial…
Constructing and manipulating homotopy types from categorical input data has been an important theme in algebraic topology for decades. Every category gives rise to a `classifying space', the geometric realization of the nerve. Up to weak…
We discuss the Hochschild cohomology of the category of D-modules associated to an algebraic stack. In particular we describe the Hochschild cohomology of the category of torus-equivariant D-modules as the cohomology of a D-module on the…
We show that the trace decategorification, or zeroth Hochschild homology, of the twisted Heisenberg category defined by Cautis and Sussan is isomorphic to a quotient of $W^-$, a subalgebra of $W_{1+\infty}$ defined by Kac, Wang, and Yan.…
Let NG0 denote the category of all pointed numerically generated spaces and continuous maps preserving base-points. In [SYH], we described a passage from bivariant functors to generalized homology and cohomology theories. In this paper, we…
Bihom-associative algebras have been recently introduced in the study of group hom-categories. In this paper, we introduce a Hochschild type cohomology for bihom-associative algebras with suitable coefficients. The underlying cochain…
Beliakova-Putyra-Wehrli studied various kinds of traces, in relation to annular Khovanov homology. In particular, to a graded algebra and a graded bimodule over it, they associate a quantum Hochschild homology of the algebra with…
In this paper we investigate the functoriality properties of map-graded Hochschild complexes. We show that the category MAP of map-graded categories is naturally a stack over the category of small categories endowed with a certain…
