Given a simply connected space $X$ with the cohomology $H^*(X;{\mathbb Z}_2)$ to be polynomial, we calculate the loop cohomology algebra $H^*(\Omega X;{\mathbb Z}_2)$ by means of the action of the Steenrod cohomology operation $Sq_1$ on…

In this paper we explore new relations between Algebraic Topology and the theory of Hopf Algebras. For an arbitrary topological space $X$, the loop space homology $H_*(\Omega\Sigma X; \coefZ)$ is a Hopf algebra. We introduce a new homotopy…

We calculate mod-p cohomology of extended powers, and their group completions which are free infinite loop spaces. We consider the cohomology of all extended powers of a space together and identify a Hopf ring structure with divided powers…

Let G be an exceptional Lie group with a maximal torus T. Based on common properties in the Schubert presentation of the cohomology ring H*(G/T;F_{p}) DZ1, and concrete expressions of generalized Weyl invariants for G over F_{p}, we obtain…

We give some general results on the ring structure of Hochschild cohomology of smash products of algebras with Hopf algebras. We compute this ring structure explicitly for a large class of finite dimensional Hopf algebras of rank one.

Let A be any finite dimensional Hopf algebra over a field k. We specify the Tate and Tate-Hochschild cohomology for A and introduce cup products that make them become graded rings. We establish the relationship between these rings. In…

Let G be an exceptional Lie group with a maximal torus T. Based on Schubert calculus on the flag manifold G/T we have described the integral cohomology ring H*(G) by explicitely constructed generators in [DZ2], and determined the structure…

Let X be a simply connected space and k a commutative ring. Goodwillie, Burghelea and Fiedorowiscz proved that the Hochschild cohomology of the singular chains on the pointed loop space HH^{*}S_*(\Omega X) is isomorphic to the free loop…

Let $p$ be any prime, and let ${\mathcal B}(p)$ be the algebra of operations on the cohomology ring of any cocommutative $\mathbb{F}_p$-Hopf algebra. In this paper we show that when $p$ is odd (and unlike the $p=2$ case), ${\mathcal B}(p)$…

Let $H$ be a finite-dimensional connected Hopf algebra over an algebraically closed field $\field$ of characteristic $p>0$. We provide the algebra structure of the associated graded Hopf algebra $\gr H$. Then, we study the case when $H$ is…

We study the cohomology H*(A) = Ext_A(k,k) of a locally finite, connected, cocommutative Hopf algebra A over k = F_p. Specifically, we are interested in those algebras A for which H*(A) is generated as an algebra by H^1(A) and H^2(A). We…

We compute the second (and the first) cohomology groups of $^*$-algebras associated to the universal quantum unitary groups of not neccesarily Kac type, extending our earlier results for the free unitary group $U_d^+$. The extended setup…

We consider "Hopfological" techniques as in \cite{Ko} but for infinite dimensional Hopf algebras, under the assumption of being co-Frobenius. In particular, $H=k[{\mathbb Z}]\#k[x]/x^2$ is the first example, whose corepresentations category…

The Hochschild cohomology ring of a group algebra is an object that has received recent attention, but is difficult to compute, in even the simplest of cases. In this paper, we use the product formula due to Witherspoon and Siegel to extend…

Let $G$ be a group scheme of finite type over a field, and consider the cohomology ring $H^*(G)$ with coefficients in the structure sheaf. We show that $H^*(G)$ is a free module of finite rank over its component of degree 0, and is the…

Let $G$ be the group $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$, $P\subset G$ be the parabolic subgroup of upper triangular matrices and $\Gamma\subset G$ be a cocompact lattice. A right action of $P$ on $\Gamma\backslash G$ defines an orbit foliation…

Let K be a connected compact Lie group, and G be its complexification. The homology of the based loop group \Omega K with integer coefficients is naturally a \ZZ-Hopf algebra. After possibly inverting 2 or 3, we identify H_*(\Omega K,\ZZ)…

This paper is a sequel to math.AG/9803041. It consists of three parts. In the first part we give certain construction of vertex algebras which includes in particular the ones appearing in op. cit. In the second part we show how the…

Primitive cohomology of a Hopf algebra is defined by using a modification of the cobar construction of the underlying coalgebra. Among many of its applications, two classifications are presented. Firstly we classify all non locally PI,…

We describe a collection of higher homotopy operations which determine the rational homotopy type of a simply-connected space X. These are described in terms of simplicial resolutions of successive approximations (L^k,\alpha} to the Quillen…
