We prove several basic ring-theoretic results about tautological rings of manifolds W, that is, the rings of generalised Miller--Morita--Mumford classes for fibre bundles with fibre W. Firstly we provide conditions on the rational…

We prove explicit and elementary formulas for the group homology and cohomology of a finite group with coefficients in any module. We describe in elementary terms the cohomology algebra $H^*(G,k)$ as a graded algebra for a finite group $G$…

Let $R=K[G]$ be a group ring of a group $G$ over a field $K$. The Ore condition says that for any $a,b\in R$ there exist $u,v\in R$ such that $au=bv$, where $u\ne0$ or $v\ne0$. It always holds whenever $G$ is amenable. Recently it was shown…

We study the interplay between the notions of $n$-coherent rings and finitely $n$-presented modules, and also study the relative homological algebra associated to them. We show that the $n$-coherency of a ring is equivalent to the thickness…

Let $M$ be complete nonpositively curved Riemannian manifold of finite volume whose fundamental group $\Gamma$ does not contain a finite index subgroup which is a product of infinite groups. We show that the universal cover $\tilde M$ is a…

Some projective wonderful models for the complement of a toric arrangement in a n-dimensional algebraic torus T were constructed in [3]. In this paper we describe their integer cohomology rings by generators and relations.

For a finitely generated module $M$, over a commutative Noetherian local ring $(R, \mathfrak{m})$, it is shown that there exist only a finite number of non--isomorphic top local cohomology modules $\mathrm{H}_{\mathfrak{a}}^{\mathrm{dim}…

Quasiperiodic patterns described by polyhedral "atomic surfaces" and admitting matching rules are considered. It is shown that the cohomology ring of the continuous hull of such patterns is isomorphic to that of the complement of a torus…

We give a formula for the geometric fixed-points spectrum of the real topological cyclic homology of a bounded below ring spectrum, as an equaliser of two maps between tensor products of modules over the norm. We then use this formula to…

The notions of Betti numbers and of Bass numbers of a finite module N over a local ring R are extended to modules that are only assumed to be finite over S, for some local homomorphism f: R --> S. Various techniques are developed to study…

Let $\mathbb{K}$ be a number field with ring of integers $\mathfrak{O}$ and let $\mathcal{G}$ be a Chevalley group scheme not of type $\mathtt{E}_8$, $\mathtt{F}_4$ or $\mathtt{G}_2$. We use the theory of Tits buildings and a result of…

From a system consisting of a right non-degenerate ring $R$, a pair of $R$-bimodules $Q$ and $P$ and an $R$-bimodule homomorphism $\psi:P\otimes Q\longrightarrow R$ we construct a $\Z$-graded ring $\mathcal{T}_{(P,Q,\psi)}$ called the…

Given a partial action $\pi$ of an inverse semigroup $S$ on a ring $\mathcal{A}$ one may construct its associated skew inverse semigroup ring $\mathcal{A} \rtimes_\pi S$. Our main result asserts that, when $\mathcal{A}$ is commutative, the…

Tits has defined Kac-Moody and Steinberg groups over commutative rings, providing infinite dimensional analogues of the Chevalley-Demazure group schemes. Here we establish simple explicit presentations for all Steinberg and Kac-Moody groups…

We use the concept of a regular object with respect to another object in an arbitrary category, defined in \cite{dntd}, in order to obtain the transfer of regularity in the sense of Zelmanowitz between the categories $R-$mod and $S-$mod,…

Let $A$ be a commutative noetherian ring, let $\mathfrak a$ be an ideal of $A$ and let $n$ be a non-negative integer. In this paper, we study $\mathcal{S}_{n}(\mathfrak{a})$, a certain class of $A$-modules and we find some sufficient…

The noncommutative (Cohn) localization S^{-1}R of a ring R is defined for any collection S of morphisms of f.g. projective left R-modules. We exhibit S^{-1}R as the endomorphism ring of R in an appropriate triangulated category. We use this…

James' submodule theorem is a fundamental result in the representation theory of the symmetric groups and the finite general linear groups. In this note we consider a version of that theorem for a general finite group with a split…

A Lie group is a group that is also a differentiable manifold, such that the group operation is continuous respect to the topological structure. To every Lie group we can associate its tangent space in the identity point as a vector space,…

In this paper we explain how Morse theory for the Yang-Mills functional can be used to prove an analogue, for surface groups, of the Atiyah-Segal theorem. Classically, the Atiyah-Segal theorem relates the representation ring R(\Gamma) of a…
