Curved algebras are a generalization of differential graded algebras which have found numerous applications recently. The goal of this foundational article is to introduce the notion of a curved operad, and to develop the operadic calculus…
We introduce a new category of higher-dimensional automata in which the morphisms are functional homotopy simulations, i.e. functional simulations up to concurrency of independent events. For this, we use unfoldings of higher-dimensional…
Higher structures - infinity algebras and other objects up to homotopy, categorified algebras, `oidified' concepts, operads, higher categories, higher Lie theory, higher gauge theory... - are currently intensively investigated in…
We introduce an explicit combinatorial characterization of the minimal model ${\cal O}_{\infty}$ of the coloured operad ${\cal O}$ encoding non-symmetric operads. In our description of ${\cal O}_{\infty}$, the spaces of operations are…
The homotopy theory of the blow up construction in algebraic and symplectic geometry is investigated via two approaches. The first approach introduces and develops fibrewise surgery theory, for which the fibrewise framing is characterized…
Algebraic operads provide a powerful tool to understand the homotopy theory of the types of (co)algebras they encode. So far, the principal results and methods that this theory provides were only available in characteristic zero. The reason…
We define a simpler notion of symmetric topological complexity more ad hoc to the motion planning problem which was the original motivation for the definition of topological complexity. This is a homotopy invariant that we call…
This paper is a detailed study of finite-dimensional modules defined on bicomplex numbers. A number of results are proved on bicomplex square matrices, linear operators, orthogonal bases, self-adjoint operators and Hilbert spaces, including…
The aim of this paper is to define and study $\mathcal{B}$-open sets and related properties. A $\mathcal{B}$-open set is, roughly speaking, a generalization of a $b$-open set, which is in turn a generalization of a pre-open set and a…
Starting from a biased definition of a properad, we describe explicitly algebras over the cobar construction of a properad. Equivalent description in terms of solutions of generalized master equations, which can be interpreted as…
A general notion of operad is given, which includes as instances, the operads originally conceived to study loop spaces, as well as the higher operads that arise in the globular approach to higher dimensional algebra. In the framework of…
We consider two categories related to symplectic manifolds: 1. Objects are symplectic manifolds and morphisms are symplectic embeddings. 2. Objects are symplectic manifolds endowed with compatible almost complex structure and morphisms are…
We provide a general definition of higher homotopy operations, encompassing most known cases, including higher Massey and Whitehead products, and long Toda brackets. These operations are defined in terms of the W-construction of Boardman…
We develop a homotopical variant of the classic notion of an algebraic theory as a tool for producing deformations of homotopy theories. From this, we extract a framework for constructing and reasoning with obstruction theories and spectral…
The main goal of this thesis is to develop the integration theory of curved homotopy Lie algebras. In the first chapter, we develop the operadic calculus needed: we encode non-necessarily conilpotent coalgebras with operads and introduce…
We construct explicit minimal models for the (hyper)operads governing modular, cyclic and ordinary operads, and wheeled properads, respectively. Algebras for these models are homotopy versions of the corresponding structures.
We study in this article the concepts of algebra up to homotopy for a structure defined by two operations $ \pt $ and $[, ]$. Having determined the structure of $ G_\infty $ algebras and $ P_\infty $ algebras, we generalize this…
In this article we study homotopes of finite-dimensional algebras (not necessarily, associative). In the case of associative algebras we study homotopes by methods of Category theory and give description of so-called well-tempered elements…
We review several well-known operads of compactified configuration spaces and construct several new such operads, C, in the category of smooth manifolds with corners whose complexes of fundamental chains give us (i) the 2-coloured operad of…
This is the second in a series of papers. Here we develop here an intersection theory for manifolds equipped with an action of a finite group. As in our previous paper, our approach will be homotopy theoretic, enabling us to circumvent the…
