We prove an integrality property of the Chern character with values in Chow groups. As a consequence we obtain, for a prime number p, a construction of the p-1 first homological Steenrod operations on Chow groups modulo p and p-primary…
We use chain level genus zero Gromov-Witten theory to associate to any closed monotone symplectic manifold a formal group (loosely interpreted), whose Lie algebra is the odd degree cohomology of the manifold (with vanishing bracket). When…
In this mostly expository note we take advantage of homotopical and algebraic advances to give a modern account of power operations on the mod 2 homology of $\mathbb{E}_{\infty}$-ring spectra. The main advance is a quick proof of the Adem…
The dual Steenrod algebra has a canonical subalgebra isomorphic to the homology of the Brown-Peterson spectrum. We will construct a secondary operation in mod-2 homology and show that this canonical subalgebra is not closed under it. This…
We study operads in unstable global homotopy theory, which is the homotopy theory of spaces with compatible actions by all compact Lie groups. We show that the theory of these operads works remarkably well, as for example it is possible to…
We introduce a class of locally compact Hausdorff groupoids and show how to associate C*-algebras to them in a way which generalizes the reduced C*-algebra of an 'etale groupoid. Focusing on criteria for simplicity and existence of Cartan…
We survey some of the progress made recently in the classification of von Neumann algebras arising from countable groups and their measure preserving actions on probability spaces. We emphasize results which provide classes of…
We extend Wood's graph theoretic interpretation of certain quotients of the mod $2$ dual Steenrod algebra to quotients of the mod $p$ dual Steenrod algebra where $p$ is an odd prime and to quotients of the $C_2$-equivariant dual Steenrod…
We construct a quantum deformation of the Steenrod square construction on closed monotone symplectic manifolds, based on the work of Fukaya, Betz and Cohen. We prove quantum versions of the Cartan and Adem relations. We compute the quantum…
Given a Hopf algebra $A$ graded by a discrete group together with an action of the same group preserving the grading, we define a new Hopf algebra, which we call the graded twisting of $A$. If the action is adjoint, this new Hopf algebra is…
We prove a comparison theorem between the \'etale cohomology of algebraic varieties over Stein compacta and the singular cohomology of their analytifications. We deduce that the field of meromorphic functions in a neighborhood of a…
This expository article elaborates upon my talk at the 2025 AMS Summer Institute on Algebraic Geometry. It gives an introduction to a conjecture from Tate's 1966 S\'eminaire Bourbaki report, predicting the existence of a symplectic form on…
We introduce a cohomology theory of grading-restricted vertex algebras. To construct the {\it correct} cohomologies, we consider linear maps from tensor powers of a grading-restricted vertex algebra to "rational functions valued in the…
The aim of this paper is to show the importance of the Steenrod construction of homology theories for the disassembly process in surgery on a generalized $n$-manifold $X^n$, in order to produce an element of generalized homology theory,…
In topology, the Steenrod problem asks whether every singular homology class is the pushforward of the fundamental class of a closed oriented manifold. Here, we introduce an analogous question in algebraic geometry: is every element on the…
In this note, we study some properties of the filtration of the Steenrod algebra defined from the excess of admissible monomials. We give several conditions on a cocommutative graded Hopf algebra A^* which enable us to develop the theory of…
We study the noncommutative geometry of algebras of Lipschitz continuous and H\"older continuous functions where non-classical and novel differential geometric invariants arise. Indeed, we introduce a new class of Hochschild and cyclic…
In this paper we consider the K-theory of smooth algebraic stacks, establish lambda and gamma operations, and show that the higher K-theory of such stacks is always a pre-lambda-ring, and is a lambda-ring if every coherent sheaf is the…
We prove a uniqueness theorem and give a characterization of simplicity for Steinberg algebras associated to non-Hausdorff ample groupoids. We also prove a uniqueness theorem and give a characterization of simplicity for the C*-algebra…
Using the unbounded picture of analytical K-homology, we associate a well-defined K-homology class to an unbounded symmetric operator satisfying certain mild technical conditions. We also establish an ``addition formula'' for the Dirac…
