Given a finite connected 3-complex with cohomological dimension 2, we show it may be constructed up to homotopy by applying the Quillen plus construction to the Cayley complex of a finite group presentation. This reduces the D(2) problem to…
Classical homological algebra takes place in additive categories. In homotopy theory such additive categories arise as homotopy categories of ``additive groupoid enriched categories'', in which a secondary analog of homological algebra can…
We construct a small realization as flow of every precubical set (modeling for example a process algebra). The realization is small in the sense that the construction does not make use of any cofibrant replacement functor and of any…
We study the infinite generation in the homotopy groups of the group of diffeomorphisms of $S^1 \times D^{2n-1}$, for $2n \geq 6$, in a range of degrees up to $n-2$. Our analysis relies on understanding the homotopy fibre of a linearisation…
We introduce a framework to define coalgebra and bialgebra structures on two-dimensional (2D) square lattices, extending the algebraic theory of Hopf algebras and quantum groups beyond the one-dimensional (1D) setting. Our construction is…
Let $\ell$ be a commutative ring with unit. To every pair of $\ell$-algebras $A$ and $B$ one can associate a simplicial set $\hom(A,B^\Delta)$ so that $\pi_0\hom(A,B^\Delta)$ equals the set of polynomial homotopy classes of morphisms from…
The level of a module over a differential graded algebra measures the number of steps required to build the module in an appropriate triangulated category. Based on this notion, we introduce a new homotopy invariant of spaces over a fixed…
Homotopy is an important feature of associative and Jordan algebraic structures: such structures always come in families whose members need not be isomorphic among other, but still share many important properties. One may regard homotopy as…
Based on previous results on the classification of finite-dimensional Nichols algebras over dihedral groups and the characterization of simple modules of Drinfeld doubles, we compute the irreducible characters of the Drinfeld doubles of…
For an arbitrary simplicial complex K, Davis and Januszkiewicz have defined a family of homotopy equivalent CW-complexes whose integral cohomology rings are isomorphic to the Stanley-Reisner algebra of K. Subsequently, Buchstaber and Panov…
The D2 problem of C. T. C. Wall asks whether every finite cohomologically 2-dimensional CW-complex is homotopy equivalent to a finite 2-complex. Several potential counterexamples have been proposed, the longest standing of which is a…
To a homotopy algebra one may associate its deformation complex, which is naturally a differential graded Lie algebra. We show that infinity quasi-isomorphic homotopy algebras have L-infinity quasi-isomorphic deformation complexes by an…
Real algebraic geometry is the study of semi-algebraic sets, subsets of $\R^k$ defined by Boolean combinations of polynomial equalities and inequalities. The focus of this thesis is to study quantitative results in real algebraic geometry,…
We compute the integral homology and cohomology groups of configuration spaces of two distinct points on a given real projective space. The explicit answer is related to the (known multiplicative structure in the) integral cohomology---with…
The symmetries described by Pin groups are the result of combining a finite number of discrete reflections in (hyper)planes. The current work shows how an analysis using geometric algebra provides a picture complementary to that of the…
In this paper we take some classical ideas from commutative algebra, mostly ideas involving duality, and apply them in algebraic topology. To accomplish this we interpret properties of ordinary commutative rings in such a way that they can…
In this paper, we prove that any perfect complex of $D^{\infty}$-modules may be reconstructed from its holomorphic solution complex provided that we keep track of the natural topology of this last complex. This is to be compared with the…
The $g$-vector of a simplicial complex contains a lot of information about the combinatorial and topological structure of that complex. Several classification results regarding the structure of normal pseudomanifolds and homology manifolds…
We study Swan modules, which are a special class of projective modules over integral group rings, and their consequences for the homotopy classification of CW-complexes. We show that there exists a non-free stably free Swan module, thus…
We study natural additional structures on real algebraic surfaces with trivial first homology mod 2 of the complexification. If the set of real points realizes the zero of the second homology mod 2 of the complexification, then the set of…
