This paper demonstrates a topological meaning of quandle cocycle invariants of links with respect to finite connected quandles $X$, from a perspective of homotopy theory: Specifically, for any prime $\ell$ which does not divide the type of…
Let \(X\) be an irreducible smooth complex projective variety, and let \(G\) be a connected reductive linear algebraic group over \(\mathbb{C}\). In this paper, we first classify integrable transitive algebraic Lie algebroids on $X$. We…
Given a closed $n$-manifold, we consider the set of simple homotopy types of $n$-manifolds within its homotopy type, called its simple homotopy manifold set. We characterise it in terms of algebraic K-theory, the surgery obstruction map,…
We study the diagrammatic Hecke category associated with the affine Weyl group of type $\tilde{A}_2$. More precisely we find a (surprisingly simple) basis for the Hom spaces between indecomposable objects, that we call indecomposable double…
We classify four-dimensional connected simply-connected indecomposable Lorentzian symmetric spaces $M$ with connected nontrivial isotropy group furnishing solutions of the Einstein-Yang-Mills equations. Those solutions with respect to some…
Analytic lattice cohomology is a new invariant of reduced curve singularities. In the case of plane curves, it is an algebro-geometric analogue of Heegaard Floer Link homology. However, by the rigidity of the analytic structure, lattice…
In this work, a complete homotopic interpretation on the periodic table of topological insulators and superconductors has been derived by establishing the loop sequence of the corresponding classifying spaces. In our approach, each…
We are presenting proofs of fundamental results related to homotopy idempotents, proofs that are sufficiently simple so that even the author can understand them. The first one is that homotopy idempotents in the category of pointed…
Configuration space integrals have in recent years been used for studying the cohomology of spaces of (string) knots and links in $\mathbb{R}^n$ for $n>3$ since they provide a map from a certain differential algebra of diagrams to the…
We study isometric embeddings of a Euclidean space or a Heisenberg group into a higher dimensional Heisenberg group, where both the source and target space are equipped with an arbitrary left-invariant homogeneous distance that is not…
Let M:=(M^{4},\om) be a 4-dimensional rational ruled symplectic manifold and denote by w_{M} its Gromov width. Let Emb_{\omega}(B^{4}(c),M) be the space of symplectic embeddings of the standard ball B^4(c) \subset \R^4 of radius r and of…
Locally convex (or nondegenerate) curves in the sphere $S^n$ have been studied for several reasons, including the study of linear ordinary differential equations of order $n+1$. Taking Frenet frames allows us to obtain corresponding curves…
K. Orr defined a Milnor-type invariant of links that lies in the third homotopy group of a certain space $K_\omega.$ The problem of non-triviality of this third homotopy group has been open. We show that it is an infinitely generated group.…
In a 2005 paper, Casacuberta, Scevenels and Smith construct a homotopy idempotent functor $E$ on the category of simplicial sets with the property that whether it can be expressed as localization with respect to a map $f$ is independent of…
Let $G$ be a simply-connected simple compact Lie group and let $M$ be an orientable smooth closed 4-manifold. In this paper we calculate the homotopy type of the suspension of $M$ and the homotopy types of the gauge groups of principal…
Given smooth manifolds $M$ and $N$, manifold calculus studies the space of embeddings $\operatorname{Emb}(M,N)$ via the "embedding tower", which is constructed using the homotopy theory of presheaves on $M$. The same theory allows us to…
We study the homotopy of loops in a fixed path-connected Polish space from a descriptive set-theoretic viewpoint. We show that many analytic equivalence relations arise this way, and many do not. We also study the "free group" over an…
New classes of Lie-Hamilton systems are obtained from the six-dimensional fundamental representation of the symplectic Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sp}(6,\mathbb{R})$. The ansatz is based on a recently proposed procedure for constructing…
We study high-dimensional analogues of spaces of long knots. These are spaces of compactly-supported embeddings (modulo immersions) of $\mathbb{R}^m$ into $\mathbb{R}^n$. We view the space of embeddings as the value of a certain functor at…
In this note we study topological invariants of the spaces of homomorphisms Hom(\pi,G), where \pi\ is a finitely generated abelian group and G is a compact Lie group arising as an arbitrary finite product of the classical groups SU(r), U(q)…
