In [Chu12], Church used representation stability to prove that the space of configurations of distinct unordered points in a closed manifold exhibit rational homological stability. A second proof was also given by Randal-Williams in [RW11]…

We use algebraic arc complexes to prove a homological stability result for symplectic groups with slope 2/3 for rings with finite unitary stable rank. Symplectic groups are here interpreted as the automorphism groups of formed spaces with…

Let $G$ be the classical group, and let Hom$(\mathbb{Z}^m,G)$ denote the space of commuting $m$-tuples in $G$. First, we refine the formula for the Poincar\'e series of Hom$(\mathbb{Z}^m,G)$ due to Ramras and Stafa by assigning (signed)…

To any finite ordered subset and any finite partition of a group a set of tuples of positive integers, named as configurations, is associated that describes the group's behavior. The present paper provides an exposition of this notion and…

Secondary homological stability is a recently discovered stability pattern for the homology of a sequence of spaces exhibiting homological stability in a range where homological stability does not hold. We prove secondary homological…

For a given bundle $\xi \colon E \to M$ over a manifold, configuration-section spaces on $\xi$ parametrise finite subsets $z \subseteq M$ equipped with a section of $\xi$ defined on $M \smallsetminus z$, with prescribed "charge" in a…

We prove two general results concerning spectral sequences of $\mathbf{FI}$-modules. These results can be used to significantly improve stable ranges in a large portion of the stability theorems for $\mathbf{FI}$-modules currently in the…

We prove a homological stability theorem for certain complements of symmetric spaces. This is a variant of a conjecture by Vakil and Matchett Wood for subspaces of $\mathrm{Sym}^n(X)$ where $X$ is an open manifold admitting a boundary. To…

The main result of this paper amounts to a complete evaluation of the integral cohomological structure of the stable mapping class group. In particular it verifies the conjecture of D.Mumford about the rational cohomology of the stable…

We describe an algorithm to compute the stable multiplicity of a family of irreducible representations in the cohomology of ordered configuration space of the plane. Using this algorithm, we compute the stable multiplicities of all families…

We explore the integration of representations from a Lie algebra to its algebraic group in positive characteristic. An integrable module is stable under the twists by group elements. Our aim is to investigate cohomological obstructions for…

Given a graded $E_1$-module over an $E_2$-algebra in spaces, we construct an augmented semi-simplicial space up to higher coherent homotopy over it, called its canonical resolution, whose graded connectivity yields homological stability for…

A well-known property of unordered configuration spaces of points (in an open, connected manifold) is that their homology stabilises as the number of points increases. We generalise this result to moduli spaces of submanifolds of higher…

A spectral sequence calculating the homology groups of some spaces of maps equivariant under compact group actions is described. For the main example, we calculate the rational homology groups of spaces of even and odd maps $S^m \to S^M$,…

We introduce the idea of *representation stability* (and several variations) for a sequence of representations V_n of groups G_n. A central application of the new viewpoint we introduce here is the importation of representation theory into…

We compute the fundamental group of the spaces of ordered commuting $n$-tuples of elements in the Lie groups SU(2), U(2) and SO(3). For SO(3) the computation of the mod-2 cohomology of the components of these spaces is also obtained.

We prove an analogue of Miller's stable splitting of the unitary group $U(m)$ for spaces of commuting elements in $U(m)$. After inverting $m!$, the space $\text{Hom}(\mathbb{Z}^n,U(m))$ splits stably as a wedge of Thom-like spaces of…
