These are expanded lecture notes of a series of expository talks surveying basic aspects of group cohomology and homology. They were written for someone who has had a first course in graduate algebra but no background in cohomology. You…

We prove that every non-finitely generated projective module over the integral group ring of a polycyclic-by-finite group G is free if and only if G is polycyclic.

We introduce for any Poisson algebra a bicomplex of free Poisson modules, and use it to show that the Poisson cohomology theory introduced in the paper "[M. Flato, M. Gerstenhaber and A. A. Voronov, Cohomology and Deformation of Leibniz…

We present period domains of complex Hodge structures and some of their basic properties from representation theory point of view. Specifically we introduce the automorphic cohomology of period domains and the complex structure on symmetric…

If $G_1$ and $G_2$ are finite groups with periodic Tate cohomology, then $G_1\times G_2$ acts freely and smoothly on some product $S^n \times S^n$.

This is the first paper of two papers in a row aiming to study cohomology of group theoretic Dehn fillings. In the present paper, we prove a particular free product structure, which is termed the Cohen-Lyndon property, of Dehn filling…

In a previous paper, the author introduced a Z-structure in quantum cohomology defined by the K-theory and the Gamma class and showed that it is compatible with mirror symmetry for toric orbifolds. Applying the quantum Lefschetz principle…

We establish a connection between continuous K-theory and integral cohomology of rigid spaces. Given a rigid analytic space over a complete discretely valued field, its continuous K-groups vanish in degrees below the negative of the…

We study a class of quasimorphisms of the free group that can be expressed as infinite sums of Brooks quasimorphisms with some nice properties. We then review Heuer's framework of decompositions developed in arXiv:1710.03193, and put these…

Let $R$ be a polynomial ring over a field. We describe the extremal rays and the facets of the cone of local cohomology tables of finitely generated graded $R$-modules of dimension at most two. Moreover, we show that any point inside the…

We show that there exists a stably free module over a polynomial ring which is not extended from the ground ring. This provides a counterexample to the Hermite ring conjecture.

In this paper we compute extension groups in the category of strict polynomial superfunctors and thereby exhibit certain "universal extension classes" for the general linear supergroup. Some of these classes restrict to the universal…

This text is a presentation (without proofs) of some of my recent results on the singular terms of asymptotic expansions of period-integrals using (a,b)-modules. I try to explain why this simple algebraic structure is interesting and…

It is known that the algebraic \deRham cohomology group $\hDR{i}(X_0/\Q)$ of a nonsingular variety $X_0/\Q$ has the same rank as the rational singular cohomology group $\h^i\sing(\Xh;\Q)$ of the complex manifold $\Xh$ associated to the base…

Assume that $G$ is a virtually torsion-free solvable group of finite rank and $A$ a $\mathbb ZG$-module whose underlying abelian group is torsion-free and has finite rank. We stipulate a condition on $A$ that ensures that $H^n(G,A)$ and…

The stability theorem for persistent homology is a central result in topological data analysis. While the original formulation of the result concerns the persistence barcodes of $\mathbb{R}$-valued functions, the result was later cast in a…

We give two slight generalizations of results of Poizat about elementary theories of groups obtained by free constructions. The first-one concerns the non-superstability of such groups in most cases, and the second-one concerns the…

We prove that finitely generated virtually free groups are stable in permutations. As an application, we show that almost-periodic almost-automorphisms of labelled graphs are close to periodic automorphisms.

We give an easily checkable algebraic condition which implies that two elements of a finitely generated free group are members of distinct doubly-twisted conjugacy classes with respect to a pair of homomorphisms. We further show that this…

In Commutative Algebra structure results on minimal free resolutions of Gorenstein modules are of classical interest. We define Gorenstein modules of finite length over the weighted polynomial ring via symmetric matrices in divided powers.…
