Let $M$ be a closed, oriented, simply connected 6-manifold. After localization away from 2, we give a homotopy decomposition of $\Sigma M$ in terms of spheres, Moore spaces and other recognizable spaces. As applications we calculate…

We survey recent work on moduli spaces of manifolds with an emphasis on the role played by (stable and unstable) homotopy theory. The theory is illustrated with several worked examples.

We continue our study of the topology of the spaces of $m$ tuples of real polynomials with common degree $d$ and without common roots of multiplicity $n$, and in particular their stability properties with respect to $d$. In an earlier paper…

For groups of prime order, equivariant stable maps between equivariant representation spheres are investigated using the Borel cohomology Adams spectral sequence. Features of the equivariant stable homotopy category, such as stability and…

A stable model category is a setting for homotopy theory where the suspension functor is invertible. The prototypical examples are the category of spectra in the sense of stable homotopy theory and the category of unbounded chain complexes…

We compute the 2-line of stable homotopy groups of motivic spheres over fields of characteristic not two in terms of motivic cohomology and hermitian K-groups.

We compute the homotopy groups of the spaces of self maps of Lie groups of rank 2, SU(3), Sp(2), and G_2. We use the cell structures of these Lie groups and the standard methods of homotopy theory.

We obtain explicit formulas for the rational homotopy groups of generalised symmetric spaces, i.e., the homogeneous spaces for which the isotropy subgroup appears as the fixed point group of some finite order automorphism of the group. In…

We prove a homological stability theorem for moduli spaces of high-dimensional, highly connected manifolds, with respect to forming the connected sum with the product of spheres $S^{p}\times S^{q}$, for $p < q < 2p - 2$. This result is…

We survey various approaches to axiomatic stable homotopy theory, with examples including derived categories, categories of (possibly equivariant or localized) spectra, and stable categories of modular representations of finite groups. We…

Vietoris-Rips and degree Rips complexes are represented as homotopy types by their underlying posets of simplices, and basic homotopy stability theorems are recast in these terms. These homotopy types are viewed as systems (or functors),…

We calculate the homology of the mapping class group in the stable range. The calculation is based on Madsen and Weiss' proof of the "Generalised Mumford Conjecture".

We compute the 1-line of stable homotopy groups of motivic spheres over fields of characteristic not two in terms of hermitian and Milnor K-groups. This is achieved by solving questions about convergence and differentials in the slice…

Let $G$ be a compact connected Lie group with $\pi_1(G)\cong\mathbb{Z}$. We study the homotopy types of gauge groups of principal $G$-bundles over Riemann surfaces. This can be applied to an explicit computation of the homotopy groups of…

We give a new description of Rosenthal's generalized homotopy fixed point spaces as homotopy limits over the orbit category. This is achieved using a simple categorical model for classifying spaces with respect to families of subgroups.

We show that the homotopy groups of a Moore space $P^n(p^r)$, where $p^r \neq 2$, are $\mathbb{Z}/p^s$-hyperbolic for $s \leq r$. Combined with work of Huang-Wu, Neisendorfer, and Theriault, this completely resolves the question of when…

We prove that for many degrees in a stable range the homotopy groups of the moduli space of metrics of positive scalar curvature on S^n and on other manifolds are non-trivial. This is achieved by further developing and then applying a…
