We give a construction of the universal enveloping $A_\infty$ algebra of a given $L_\infty$ algebra, alternative to the already existing versions. As applications, we derive a higher homotopy algebras version of the classical Milnor-Moore…
It is a well known fact that formal dg-algebras admit no non-trivial Massey products, while the converse fails. We prove that by restricting to dg-algebras whose induced product on cohomology is trivial, we do in fact get this converse.…
The paper is devoted to study of Massey products in symplectic manifolds. Theory of generalized and classical Massey products and a general construction of symplectic manifolds with nontrivial Massey products of arbitrary large order are…
In this paper, we study polar harmonic Maass forms of negative integral weight. Using work of Fay, we construct Poincar\'e series which span the space of such forms and show that their elliptic coefficients exhibit duality properties which…
Let $p$ be a prime. We characterize the oriented right-angled Artin pro-$p$ groups whose $\mathbb{F}_p$-cohomology algebra yields no essential $n$-fold Massey products for every $n>2$, in terms of the associated digraph. Moreover, we show…
We extend Poincar\'e's theory of orientation-preserving homeomorphisms from the circle to circloids with decomposable boundary. As special cases, this includes both decomposable cofrontiers and decomposable cobasin boundaries. More…
We use nonabelian Poincar\'e duality to recover the stable splitting of compactly supported mapping spaces, $\rm{Map_c}$$(M,\Sigma^nX)$, where $M$ is a parallelizable $n$-manifold. Our method for deriving this splitting is new, and…
We analyze a definition of product of Banach spaces that is naturally associated by duality with an abstract notion of space of multiplication operators. This dual relation allows to understand several constructions coming from different…
We construct a compact simply-connected 7-dimensional manifold admitting a K-contact structure but not a Sasakian structure. We also study rational homotopy properties of such manifolds, proving in particular that a simply-connected…
Kadeishvili's minimal model theorem establishes the existence of an $A_\infty$-structure, unique up to isomorphism, on the cohomology of a dg associative algebra, which captures its homotopy type. In this note we prove the existence of…
In this survey, we discuss two research areas related to Massey's higher operations. The first direction is connected with the cohomology of Lie algebras and the theory of representations. The second main theme is at the intersection of…
We elucidate the vector space (twisted relative cohomology) that is Poincar\'e dual to the vector space of Feynman integrals (twisted cohomology) in general spacetime dimension. The pairing between these spaces - an algebraic invariant…
Let A be a subspace arrangement with a geometric lattice such that codim(x) > 1 for every x in A. Using rational homotopy theory, we prove that the complement M(A) is rationally elliptic if and only if the sum of the orthogonal subspaces is…
This paper studies the asymptotic product of two metric spaces. It is well defined if one of the spaces is visual or if both spaces are geodesic. In this case the asymptotic product is the pullback of a limit diagram in the coarse category.…
We introduce the key concepts of duality mappings and metric extensor. The fundamental identities involving the duality mappings are presented, and we disclose the logical equivalence between the so-called metric tensor and the metric…
Geometric Manin's conjecture predicts that components of the moduli space of curves on a Fano variety parametrizing non-free curves are pathological and arise from "accumulating" morphisms that increase the Fujita invariant. By passing to…
In this paper we give a necessary and sufficient condition for a (real) moment-angle complex to be a topological manifold. The cup and cap products in a real moment-angle manifold are studied: the Poincar\'{e} duality via cap products is…
In this paper, we define and prove basic properties of complement polyhedral product spaces, dual complexes and polyhedral product complexes. Then we compute the universal algebra of polyhedral product complexes under certain split…
If a closed orientable manifold (resp. rational Poincar\'e duality space) $X$ receives a map $Y \to X$ from a formal manifold (resp. space) $Y$ that hits a fundamental class, then $X$ is formal. The main technical ingredient in the proof…
We interpret mathematically the pair (master equation, solution of master equation) up to equivalence, as the pair (a presentation of a free triangular dga T over a combination operad O, dga map of T into C, a dga over O) up to homotopy…
