We compute the stable cohomology of moduli spaces of hyperelliptic curves of a fixed genus embedded on a fixed Hirzebruch surface. We also describe these moduli spaces of embedded hyperelliptic curves in terms of moduli spaces of pointed…

In this paper, we introduce a symmetric continuous cohomology of topological groups. This is obtained by topologizing a recent construction due to Staic (J. Algebra 322 (2009), 1360-1378), where a symmetric cohomology of abstract groups is…

In a Riemannian manifold with a smooth positive function that weights the associated Hausdorff measures we study stable sets, i.e., second order minima of the weighted perimeter under variations preserving the weighted volume. By assuming…

In this paper we prove stability results for the homology of the mapping class group of a surface. We get a stability range that is near optimal, and extend the result to twisted coefficients.

We introduce a new method for proving twisted homological stability, and use it to prove such results for symmetric groups and general linear groups. In addition to sometimes slightly improving the stable range given by the traditional…

We establish a homotopy-theoretic description of the homology of stable moduli spaces of $(2n+1)$-dimensional manifold triads $(N, \partial^h N, \partial^v N)$ with fixed $\partial^v N$, whenever $n \geq 3$ and $(N, \partial^h N)$ is…

We develop a Chern-Weil theory for compact Lie group action whose generic stabilizers are finite in the framework of equivariant cohomology. This provides a method of changing an equivariant closed form within its cohomological class to a…

We prove a homological stability theorem for the moduli spaces of manifolds diffeomorphic to g(S^n x S^n), provided n > 2. This generalises Harer's stability theorem for the homology of mapping class groups. Combined with previous work of…

We establish a strong, geometric lower bound on the (sequential) topological complexity of the unordered configuration spaces of a general graph. As an application, we show that, for most graphs, the topological complexity eventually…

We prove a homological stabilization theorem for Hurwitz spaces: moduli spaces of branched covers of the complex projective line. This has the following arithmetic consequence: let l>2 be prime and A a finite abelian l-group. Then there…

Stable cohomology is a generalization of Tate cohomology to associative rings, first defined by Pierre Vogel. For a commutative local ring $R$ with residue field $k$, stable cohomology modules $\widehat{\mathrm{Ext}}{\vphantom…

We consider stable manifolds of a holomorphic diffeomorphism of a complex manifold. Using a conjugation of the dynamics to a (non-stationary) polynomial normal form, we show that typical stable manifolds are biholomorphic to complex…

We construct nontrivial auto-equivalences of stable module categories for elementary, local symmetric algebras over a field k. These auto-equivalences are modeled after the spherical twists of Seidel and Thomas and the $\mathbb{P}^n$-twists…

In this article we study cohomology of a group with coefficients in representations on Banach spaces and its stability under deformations. We show that small, metric deformations of the representation preserve vanishing of cohomology. As…

We show that homological stability holds for the family of Iwahori-Hecke algebras of type B_n, where homology is identified with the relevant Tor group. This family of algebras is related to the Coxeter groups of type B_n, which are groups…

We study stability patterns in the high dimensional rational homology of unordered configuration spaces of manifolds. Our results follow from a general approach to stability phenomena in the homology of Lie algebras, which may be of…

We study the cohomology of Aut(F_n) and Out(F_n) with coefficients in the modules \wedge^q H, \wedge H^*, Sym^q H or Sym^q H^*, where H is the Out(F_n)-module obtained by abelianising the free group F_n. For reasons which are not…

This paper consists of two related parts. In the first part we give a self-contained proof of homological stability for the spaces C_n(M;X) of configurations of n unordered points in a connected open manifold M with labels in a…

Homological stability for unordered configuration spaces of connected manifolds was discovered by Th. Church and extended by O. Randal-Williams and B. Knudsen: $H_i(C_k(M);\mathbb{Q})$ is constant for $k\geq f(i)$. We characterize the…

We prove a general homological stability theorem for certain families of groups equipped with product maps, followed by two theorems of a new kind that give information about the last two homology groups outside the stable range. (These…
