Let M be a Poincare duality space of dimension at least four. In this paper we describe a complete obstruction to realizing the diagonal map M -> M x M by a Poincare embedding. The obstruction group depends only on the fundamental group and…

We prove rigidity and gap theorems for self-dual and even Poincar\'e-Einstein metrics in dimension four. As a corollary, we give an obstruction to the existence of self-dual Poincar\'e-Einstein metrics in terms of conformal invariants of…

Poincar\'e profiles are a family of analytically defined coarse invariants, which can be used as obstructions to the existence of coarse embeddings between metric spaces. In this paper we calculate the Poincar\'e profiles of all connected…

We extend Poincar\'e duality in \'etale cohomology from smooth schemes to regular ones. This is achieved via a formalism of trace maps for local complete intersection morphisms.

We dualize previous work on generalized persistence diagrams for filtrations to cofiltrations. When the underlying space is a manifold, we express this duality as a Poincar\'e duality between their generalized persistence diagrams. A heavy…

The object of this paper is to show that non-homotopy finite Poincar\'e duality spaces are plentiful. Let $\pi$ be finitely presented group. Assuming that the reduced Grothendieck group $\tilde K_0(\Bbb Z[\pi])$ has a non-trivial…

Using variational considerations, we establish that there exists a new symmetric trace-free tensor conformal invariant of hypersurfaces embeddings in even dimensional conformal manifolds. This conformal invariant completes the family of…

Mendes recently conjectured an identity simplifying the Poincar\'e series of the space of equivariant polynomial maps from $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ to a subrepresentation of $Sym^{2}(\mathbb{R}^{n})$. We show how to prove this identity using a…

We reformulate the integrality property of the Poincar\'{e} inner product in the middle dimension, for an arbitrary Poincar\'{e} $\Q$-algebra, in classical terms (discriminant and local invariants). When the algebra is 1-connected, we show…

In this paper we assign, under reasonable hypothesis, to each pseudomanifold with isolated singularities a rational Poincar\'e duality space. These spaces are constructed with the formalism of intersections spaces defined by Markus Banagl…

We discuss Poincar\'e duality complexes X and the question whether or not their Spivak normal fibration admits a reduction to a vector bundle in the case where the dimension of X is at most 4. We show that in dimensions less than 4 such a…

We show that for a wide class of manifold pairs N, M satisfying dim(M) = dim(N) + 1, every \pi_1-injective map f : N --> M factorises up to homotopy as a finite cover of an embedding. This result, in the spirit of Waldhausen's torus…

We introduce a spectrum of monotone coarse invariants for metric measure spaces called Poincar\'{e} profiles. The two extremes of this spectrum determine the growth of the space, and the separation profile as defined by…

We prove that a mapping $u \colon \mathcal{M}'\to \mathcal{N}$, where $\mathcal{M}'$ and $ \mathcal{N}$ are compact Riemannian manifolds, is the trace of a Sobolev mapping $U \colon \mathcal{M}' \times [0, 1) \to \mathcal{N}$ if and only if…

The Blaschke's conjecture asserts that if $\diam(M)=\text{Inj}(M)=\frac\pi2$ (up to a rescaling) for a complete Riemannian manifold $M$, then $M$ is isometric to $\Bbb S^n(\frac12)$, ${\Bbb R\Bbb P}^{n}$, ${\Bbb C\Bbb P}^{n}$, ${\Bbb H\Bbb…

We introduce a notion of Poincar\'e duality for pairs of $\infty$-categories, extending Poincar\'e-Lefschetz duality for pairs of spaces. This categorical extension yields an efficient book-keeping device that affords, among other things, a…

In this paper we address the relation between the orbifold fundamental group and the topology of the underlying space. In particular, under the assumption that the orbifold fundamental group is equal to the fundamental group of the…

We give a complete obstruction to turning an immersion of an m-dimensional manifold M in Euclidean n-space into an embedding when 3n>4m+4. It is a secondary obstruction, and exists only when the primary obstruction, due to Haefliger,…

We study relative differential and integral forms on families of supermanifolds and their cohomology. We prove a relative Poincar\'e--Verdier duality and show that it relates the cohomology of differential and integral forms, admitting a…

We prove a conjecture of Bhatt-Hansen that derived pushforwards along proper morphisms of rigid-analytic spaces commute with Verdier duality on Zariski-constructible complexes. In particular, this yields duality statements for the…
