This article studies a large, general class of orthogonal polytopes which we may call "generic orthotopes". These objects emerged from a desire to represent a Coxeter complex by an orthogonal polytope that is particularly nice with respect…

Equivalence relations can be defined on Gauss phrases using combinatorial moves. In this paper we consider two closely related equivalence relations on Gauss phrases, homotopy and open homotopy. In particular, in each case, we define a new…

Stable homotopy theory is governed by the principle that after inverting loop spaces, homotopy types become the representing objects for homology theories. We show that this principle extends to higher category theory: inverting…

Topology of the spatial coherence function is considered in details. The phase singularity (coherence vortices) structures of coherence function are classified by Hopf index and Brouwer degree in topology. The coherence flux quantization…

We introduce three generalizations of homotopy equivalence in digital images, to allow us to express whether a finite and an infinite digital image are similar with respect to homotopy. We show that these three generalizations are not…

Persistent homology, a technique from computational topology, has recently shown strong empirical performance in the context of graph classification. Being able to capture long range graph properties via higher-order topological features,…

In this paper, we introduce a study of prolongations of homogeneous vector bundles. We give an alternative approach for the prolongation. For a given homogeneous vector bundle E, we obtain a new homogeneous vector bundle. The homogeneous…

We study the homomorphism induced in homology by a closed correspondence between topological spaces, using projections from the graph of the correspondence to its domain and codomain. We provide assumptions under which the homomorphism…

We provide a classification of the homogeneous 3-dimensional permutation structures, i.e. homogeneous structures in a language of 3 linear orders, partially answering a question of Cameron. We also arrive at a natural description of all…

The homotopy theory of representations of nets of algebras over a (small) category with values in a closed symmetric monoidal model category is developed. We illustrate how each morphism of nets of algebras determines a change-of-net…

We provide various counter-examples to the long-standing so-called "Omnibus Conjecture" in Rational Homotopy Theory. That is, we show that a space with finite dimensional even-degree rational cohomology and finite dimensional spherical…

Fields exhibit a variety of topological properties, like different topological charges, when field space in the continuum is composed by more than one topological sector. Lattice treatments usually encounter difficulties describing those…

This article shows several new methods for proofs on Kan complexes while using them to give a compact introduction to the homotopy groups of these complexes. Then more advanced objects are studied starting with homology and the Hurewicz…

A quasi-schemoid is a small category with a particular partition of the set of morphisms. We define a homotopy relation on the category of quasi-schemoids and study its fundamental properties. As a homotopy invariant, the homotopy set of…

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…

Homotopy limits and colimits are homotopical replacements for the usual limits and colimits of category theory, which can be approached either using classical explicit constructions or the modern abstract machinery of derived functors. Our…

The aim of this paper is to introduce the concepts of homotopical smallness and closeness. These are the properties of homotopical classes of maps that are related to recent developments in homotopy theory and to the construction of…

We investigate a special kind of contraction of symmetric spaces (respectively, of Lie triple systems), called homotopy. In this first part of a series of two papers we construct such contractions for classical symmetric spaces in an…

Homotopy theory folklore tells us that the sheaf defining the cohomology theory Tmf of topological modular forms is unique up to homotopy. Here we provide a proof of this fact, although we claim no originality for the statement. This…

We study and classify a class of representations (called generalized geometric representations) of a Coxeter group of finite rank. These representations can be viewed as a natural generalization of the geometric representation. The…
