In this paper, we generalize the notion of Serre fibration to the Morita category of topological groupoids and derive the associated long exact sequence of homotopy groups. We use this results for calculation of homotopy groups of various…

We prove fibration theorems \`a la Milnor for differentiable real maps with non isolated critical values. We study the situation for maps with linear discriminant, and prove that the concept of d-regularity is the key point for the…

In [22] Milnor proved that a real analytic map $f\colon (R^n,0) \to (R^p,0)$, where $n \geq p$, with an isolated critical point at the origin has a fibration on the tube $f|\colon B_\epsilon^n \cap f^{-1}(S_\delta^{p-1}) \to…

In this paper we prove a single exponential upper bound on the number of possible homotopy types of the fibres of a Pfaffian map, in terms of the format of its graph. In particular we show that if a semi-algebraic set $S \subset…

Milnor's fibration theorem and its generalizations play a central role in the study of singularities of complex and real analytic maps. In the complex analytic case, the Milnor fibration on the sphere is always given by the normalized map…

We analyze a general family of fibrations which, after looping, have sections. Methods are developed to determine the homotopy type of the fibre and the homotopy classes of the map from the fibre to the base. The methods are driven by…

Let $f:M\to\mathbb{R}$ be a Morse-Bott function on a closed manifold $M$, so the set $\Sigma_f$ of its critical points is a closed submanifold whose connected components may have distinct dimensions. Denote by $\mathcal{S}(f) = \{h \in…

We prove that every map-germ ${f \bar g}: (\C^n,\0) {\to}(\C,0)$ with an isolated critical value at 0 has the Thom $a_{f \bar g}$-property. This extends Hironaka's theorem for holomorphic mappings to the case of map-germs $f \bar g$ and it…

We study topologically monotone surjective $W^{1,n}$-maps of finite distortion $f \colon \Omega \to \Omega'$, where $\Omega, \Omega' $ are domains in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n \geq 2$. If the outer distortion function $K_f \in…

Let $p:E -> B$ be a principal fibration with classifying map $w:B -> C$. It is well-known that the group $[X,\Omega C]$ acts on $[X,E]$ with orbit space the image of $p_#$, where $p_#: [X,E] -> [X,B]$. The isotropy subgroup of the map of…

We prove that if $f\colon X\to Y$ is a closed surjective map between metric spaces such that every fiber $f^{-1}(y)$ belongs to a class of space $\mathrm S$, then there exists an $F_\sigma$-set $A\subset X$ such that $A\in\mathrm S$ and…

Normal maps between discrete groups $N\rightarrow G$ were characterized [FS] as those which induce a compatible topological group structure on the homotopy quotient $EN\times_N G$. Here we deal with topological group (or loop) maps…

Let $M$ be a smooth compact connected surface, $P$ be either the real line $\mathbb{R}$ or the circle $S^1$ and $f:M\to P$ be a Morse map. Denote by $\mathcal{S}(f)$ and $\mathcal{O}(f)$ the corresponding stabilizer and orbit of $f$ with…

We prove conditions under which the total space of the pullback of a sphere fibration over a connected sum is homotopy equivalent to a connected sum with a gyration. Existing results of this type often depend on geometric methods. We…

When f : R power n to R power p, is a surjective real analytic map with isolated critical value, we prove that the (m)-regularity condition (in a sense we define) ensures that f ||f|| is a fibration on small spheres, f induces a fibration…

Let $G$ be a topological group and let $K,L\subseteq G$ be closed subgroups, with $K\subseteq L$. We prove that if $L$ is a locally compact pro-Lie group, then the map $q:G/K\to G/L$ is a fibration. As an application of this, we obtain two…

For a relatively minimal surface fibration $f: X\to C$, the equivariant automorphism group of $f$ is, roughly speaking, the group of automorphisms of $X$ preserving the fibration structure. We present a classification of such fibrations of…

We study the topology of toric maps. We show that if $f\colon X\to Y$ is a proper toric morphism, with $X$ simplicial, then the cohomology of every fiber of $f$ is pure and of Hodge-Tate type. When the map is a fibration, we give an…

We prove a Milnor-L\^e type fibration theorem for a subanalytic map $f: X \to Y$ between subanalytic sets $X \subset \mathbb{R}^m$ and $Y \subset \mathbb{R}^n$. Moreover, if $f$ extends to an analytic map $\mathbb{R}^m \to \mathbb{R}^n$, we…
