We determine explicitly the stable homotopy groups of Moore spaces up to the range 7, using an equivalence of categories which allows to consider each Moore space as an exact couple of $\mathbb Z$-modules.

Fix an odd prime $p$ and let $X$ be the $p$-localization of a finite suspended $CW$-complex. Given certain conditions on the reduced mod-$p$ homology $\bar H_*(X;\zmodp)$ of $X$, we use a decomposition of $\Omega\Sigma X$ due to the second…

We give a refinement of the stable Snaith splitting of the double loop space of a Moore space and use it to construct infinite $v_1$-periodic families of elements of order $p^{r+1}$ in the homotopy groups of mod $p^r$ Moore spaces. For odd…

We show that the homotopy groups of a Moore space $P^n(p^r)$, where $p^r \neq 2$, are $\mathbb{Z}/p^s$-hyperbolic for $s \leq r$. Combined with work of Huang-Wu, Neisendorfer, and Theriault, this completely resolves the question of when…

In this paper, we develop the new method, initiated by B. Gray (1972), to compute the unstable homotopy groups of the mapping cone, especially for $2$-cell complex $X=S^m\cup_{\alpha} e^{n}$. By Gray's work mentioned above or the…

It is well-known how to compute the structure of the second homotopy group of a space, $X$, as a module over the fundamental group, $\pi_1X$, using the homology of the universal cover and the Hurewicz isomorphism. We describe a new method…

We determine the automorphism group of the modular curve $X_0^*(p)$ for all prime numbers $p$.

Let $F$ be a local field over $\mathbf{Q}_p$ or $\mathbf{F}_p((t))$, and let $D$ be a central simple division algebra over $F$ of degree $d$. In the $p$-adic case, we assume $p>de+1$ where $e$ is the ramification degree over $\mathbf{Q}_p$;…

For $n\geq 2$ we consider $(n-1)$-connected closed manifolds of dimension at most $(3n-2)$. We prove that away from a finite set of primes, the $p$-local homotopy groups of $M$ are determined by the dimension of the space of indecomposable…

The set of unrestricted homotopy classes $[M,S^n]$ where $M$ is a closed and connected spin $(n+1)$-manifold is called the $n$-th cohomotopy group $\pi^n(M)$ of $M$. Moreover it is known that $\pi^n(M) = H^n(M;\mathbb Z) \oplus \mathbb Z_2$…

The simplices and the complexes arsing form the grading of the fundamental (desymmetrized) domain of arithmetical groups and non-arithmetical groups, as well as their extended (symmetrized) ones are described also for oriented manifolds in…

We determine the automorphism group of the split Cartan modular curves $X_{\operatorname{split}}(p)$ for all primes $p$.

Given a connected 2-complex X with fundamental group G, we show how pi_3(X) may be computed as a module over Z[G]. Further we show that if X is a finite connected 2-complex with G (the fundamental group) finite of odd order, then the stable…

We provide a family of spaces localized at 2, whose stable homotopy groups are summands of their unstable homotopy groups. Application to mod 2 Moore spaces are given.

Using geometric arguments, we compute the group of homotopy classes of maps from a closed $(n+1)$-dimensional manifold to the $n$-sphere for $n \geq 3$. Our work extends results from Kirby, Melvin and Teichner for closed oriented…

We introduce the modular class of a Poisson map. We look at several examples and we use the modular classes of Poisson maps to study the behavior of the modular class of a Poisson manifold under different kinds of reduction. We also discuss…

We study the global structure of moduli spaces of quasi-isogenies of p-divisible groups introduced by Rapoport and Zink. We determine their dimensions and their sets of connected components and of irreducible components. If the isocrystals…

Elementary geometric arguments are used to compute the group of homotopy classes of maps from a 4-manifold X to the 3-sphere, and to enumerate the homotopy classes of maps from X to the 2-sphere. The former completes a project initiated by…

Let X be a space and write LX for its free loop space equipped with the action of the circle group T given by dilation. We compute the equivariant cohomology H^*(LX_hT; Z/p) as a module over H^*(BT; Z/p) when X=CP^r for any positive integer…

Let $M$ denote a two-dimensional Moore space (so $H_2(M; \Z) = 0$), with fundamental group $G$. The $M$-cellular spaces are those one can build from $M$ by using wedges, push-outs, and telescopes (and hence all pointed homotopy colimits).…
