This short note introduces a notion of directed homotopy equivalence and of "directed" topological complexity (which elaborates on the notion that can be found in e.g. Farber's book) which have a number of desirable joint properties. In…
Let $f:G\rightarrow H$ be a homomorphism of groups, we construct a topological space $X_f$ such that its group of homeomorphisms is isomorphic to $G$, its group of homotopy classes of self-homotopy equivalences is isomorphic to $H$ and the…
We define and study homotopy groups of cubical sets. To this end, we give four definitions of homotopy groups of a cubical set, prove that they are equivalent, and further that they agree with their topological analogues via the geometric…
We develop a general approach to study geometric flows on homogeneous spaces. Our main tool will be a dynamical system defined on the variety of Lie algebras called the bracket flow, which coincides with the original geometric flow after a…
We introduce a new cubical model for homotopy types. More precisely, we'll define a category Qs with the following features: Qs is a PROP containing the classical box category as a subcategory, the category Qs-Set of presheaves of sets on…
Algebraic topological methods have been used successfully in concurrency theory, the domain of theoretical computer science that deals with parallel computing. L. Fajstrup, E. Goubault, and M. Raussen have introduced partially ordered…
In this paper we prove the following topological classification result for flows on real projective space induced by linear flows on Euclidean space: Two flows on the projective space P(V) of a finite-dimensional real vector space V,…
This paper gives a uniform-theoretic refinement of classical homotopy theory. Both cubical sets (with connections) and uniform spaces admit classes of weak equivalences, special cases of classical weak equivalences, appropriate for the…
We prove that the loop space of the directed suspension of a directed space is homotopy equivalent to the James construction. In particular, it does not depend on the directed structure of a given directed space.
Cubical type theory provides a constructive justification of homotopy type theory. A crucial ingredient of cubical type theory is a path lifting operation which is explained computationally by induction on the type involving several…
We study the homotopy types of certain spaces closely related to the spaces of algebraic (rational) maps from the $m$ dimensional real projective space into the $n$ dimensional complex projective space for $2\leq m\leq 2n$ (we conjecture…
We investigate group actions on homotopy coherent diagrams. This is used to prove an equivalence between realizations of equivariant cubical flow categories and external actions on Burnside functors. In particular, the results imply that…

Directed topology is an area of mathematics with applications in concurrency. It extends the concept of a topological space by adding a notion of directedness, which restricts how paths can evolve through a space and enables thereby a…
This work presents a new path classification criterion to distinguish paths geometrically and topologically from the workspace, which is divided through cell decomposition, generating a medial-axis-like skeleton structure. We use this…
By studying spaces of flow graphs in a closed oriented manifold, we construct operations on its cohomology, parametrized by the homology of the moduli spaces of compact Riemann surfaces with boundary marked points. We show that the…
We describe various path homology theories constructed for a directed hypergraph. We introduce the category of directed hypergraphs and the notion of a homotopy in this category. Also, we investigate the functoriality and the homotopy…
We introduce the functor * which assigns to every metric space X its symmetric join *X. As a set, *X is a union of intervals connecting ordered pairs of points in X. Topologically, *X is a natural quotient of the usual join of X with…
We show that discrete and classical homotopy theories are equivalent after localizing at n-equivalences for any non-negative integer n. By constructing an explicit homotopy inverse to the graph nerve functor associating an n-fibrant cubical…
There exist cubical transition systems containing cubes having an arbitrarily large number of faces. A regular transition system is a cubical transition system such that each cube has the good number of faces. The categorical and…
