The Hilali Conjecture predicts that for a simply-connected elliptic space, the total dimension of the rational homotopy does not exceed that of the rational homology. Here we give a proof of this conjecture for a class of elliptic spaces…
We discuss inequalities between the values of \emph{homotopical and cohomological Poincar\'e polynomials} of the self-products of rationally elliptic spaces. For rationally elliptic quasi-projective varieties, we prove inequalities between…
We prove that in formal dimension $\leq 20$ the Hilali conjecture holds, i.e. that the total dimension of the rational homology bounds from above the total dimension of the rational homotopy for a simply connected rationally elliptic space.
In this short note we observe that the Hilali conjecture holds for two-stage spaces, i.e. we argue that the dimension of the rational cohomology is at least as large as the dimension of the rational homotopy groups for these spaces. We also…
Motivated by prominent problems like the Hilali conjecture Yamaguchi--Yokura recently proposed certain estimates on the relations of the dimensions of rational homotopy and rational cohomology groups of fibre, base and total spaces in a…
In this article, we pursue the study begun in \cite{Lup02} on the cohomology of rationally elliptic coformal spaces. Consequently, we complete, for such spaces, the proof of Lupton's conjecture and deduce Hilali's.
We give a survey on recent results on inequalities between the ranks of homotopy and cohomology groups (resp., graded components of mixed Hodge structures on these groups) of rationally elliptic spaces (resp., quasi-projective varieties…
The Hilali conjecture claims that a simply connected rationally elliptic space $X$ satisfies the inequality $\operatorname{dim} (\pi_*(X)\otimes \mathbb Q ) \leqq \operatorname{dim} H_*(X;\mathbb Q )$. In this paper we show that for any…
Let A be a subspace arrangement with a geometric lattice such that codim(x) > 1 for every x in A. Using rational homotopy theory, we prove that the complement M(A) is rationally elliptic if and only if the sum of the orthogonal subspaces is…
In this paper we introduce homological and homotopical Poincar\'e polynomials $P_f(t)$ and $P^{\pi}_f(t)$ of a continuous map $f:X \to Y$ such that if $f:X \to Y$ is a constant map, or more generally, if $Y$ is contractible, then these…
Here we prove some special cases of the following conjecture: that the sum of the Betti numbers of a 1-connected elliptic space is greater than the total rank of its homotopy groups. Our main tool is Sullivan's minimal model.
Over the complex numbers, the complement of a collection of hyperplanes is a widely-studied object; the cohomology ring, in particular, is known to have a structure depending only on the combinatorial properties of the intersection of…
Simply-connected manifolds of positive sectional curvature $M$ are speculated to have a rigid topological structure. In particular, they are conjectured to be rationally elliptic, i.e., all but finitely many homotopy groups are conjectured…
We establish some upper and lower bounds of the rational topological complexity for certain classes of elliptic spaces. Our techniques permit us in particular to show that the rational topological complexity coincides with the dimension of…
Let M be a compact, connected and simply-connected Riemannian manifold, and suppose that G is a compact, connected Lie group acting on M by isometries. The dimension of the space of orbits is called the cohomogeneity of the action. If the…
In his study of Halperin's toral-rank conjecture, M. R. Hilali conjectured that for any simply connected rationally elliptic space $X$, one must have $dim\pi_*(X)\otimes \mathbb{Q} \leq dimH^*(X,\mathbb{Q})$. Let $(\Lambda V, d)$ denote a…
Since Quillen proved his famous equivalences of homotopy categories in 1969, much work has been done towards classifying the rational homotopy types of simply connected topological places. The majority of this work has focused on rational…
We give an explicit formula for the rational category of an elliptic space whose minimal model has a homogeneous-length differential. We also show that for such a space, there are no gaps in the sequence of integers realized as the rational…
We introduce a notion of ellipticity of complexes of linear pseudodifferential operators acting on sections of $A$-Hilbert bundles over smooth manifolds, $A$ being a $C^*$-algebra. We prove that the cohomology groups of an $A$-elliptic…
For a simply connected complex algebraic variey $X$, by the mixed Hodge structures $(W_{\bullet}, F^{\bullet})$ and $(\tilde W_{\bullet}, \tilde F^{\bullet})$ of the homology group $H_{*}(X;\mathbb Q)$ and the homotopy groups…
