In this paper new Steiner systems $S(2,6,111)$, $S(2,6,121)$, $S(2,6,126)$, $S(2,7,169)$, $S(2,7,175)$ and possibly others with point-transitive (commutative except $S(2,6,111)$ case) automorphism groups are introduced.
We compute the stable homology of orthogonal and symplectic groups over a finite field k with coefficients coming from an usual endofunctor F of k-vector spaces (exterior, symmetric, divided powers...), that is, for all natural integer i,…
We explicitly calculate the fundamental group of the space $\mathcal F$ of all immersed closed curves on a surface $F$. It is shown that $\pi_n(\mathcal F)=0$, n>1 for $F\neq S^2, RP^2$. It is also proved that $\pi_2(\mathcal F)=\Z$, and…
In this paper we give an elementary proof of the proper homotopy invariance of the equivariant stable homotopy type of the configuration space $F(M,k)$ for a topological manifold $M$. Our technique is to compute the Spanier-Whitehead dual…
We compute the rational stable homology of the automorphism groups of free nilpotent groups. These groups interpolate between the general linear groups over the ring of integers and the automorphism groups of free groups, and we employ…
This is the second of a series of papers which are devoted to a comprehensive theory of maps between orbifolds. In this paper, we develop a basic machinery for studying homotopy classes of such maps. It contains two parts: (1) the…
In this paper we continue our study of the moduli space of stable bundles of rank two and degree 1 on a very general quintic surface. The goal in this paper is to understand the irreducible components of the moduli space in the first case…
We study the group of homotopy classes of self maps of compact Lie groups which induce the trivial homomorphism on homotopy groups. We completely determine the groups for SU(3) and Sp(2). We investigate these groups for simple Lie groups in…
Let $p$ be a prime and let $\pi^n(X;\mathbb{Z}/p^r)=[X,M_n(\mathbb{Z}/p^r)]$ be the set of homotopy classes of based maps from CW-complexes $X$ into the mod $p^r$ Moore spaces $M_n(\mathbb{Z}/p^r)$ of degree $n$, where $\mathbb{Z}/p^r$…
We show that the 2-local splitting of spin$^c$ bordism by Anderson--Brown--Peterson and Stong refines to a $C_2$-equivariant map in the category of spectra with $C_2$-action from Real spin bordism to a sum of (higher) connective covers of…
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…
In this work we construct from ground up a homotopy theory of C*-algebras. This is achieved in parallel with the development of classical homotopy theory by first introducing an unstable model structure and second a stable model structure.…
We calculate the motivic stable homotopy groups of the two-complete sphere spectrum after inverting multiplication by the Hopf map eta over fields of cohomological dimension at most 2 with characteristic different from 2 (this includes the…
We define and study equivariant periodic cyclic homology for locally compact groups. This can be viewed as a noncommutative generalization of equivariant de Rham cohomology. Although the construction resembles the Cuntz-Quillen approach to…
In this paper, we compute the concordance inertia group of the product $M \times \mathbb{S}^k$, where $M$ is a simply connected, closed, smooth 6-manifold, for $1 \leq k \leq 10$, using known low-dimensional computations of the stable…
In this, the second of three papers about $C_2$-equivariant complex quadrics, we calculate the equivariant ordinary cohomology of smooth symmetric quadrics graded on the representation ring of $\Pi BU(1)$ and with coefficients in the…
We study the homotopy groups of the geometric fixed points of the real topological cyclic homology of $\mathbb{Z}/4$. We relate these groups to the values of the non-abelian derived functors of the functor $M \mapsto (M…
We compute the 3-primary v1-periodic homotopy groups of the exceptional Lie group E7. Now E8 at the primes 3 and 5 is the only compact simple Lie group whose odd-primary v1-periodic homotopy groups remian to be computed. The main work is…
In this paper we compute the mod 2 cohomology of the Sylow 2-subgroup of the Higman-Sims group HS, one of the 26 sporadic simple groups. We obtain its Poincare series as well as an explicit description of it as a ring with 17 generators and…
The realization problem asks: When does an algebraic complex arise, up to homotopy, from a geometric complex? In the case of 2- dimensional algebraic complexes, this is equivalent to the D2 problem, which asks when homological methods can…
