$N_\infty$-operads are an equivariant generalization of $E_\infty$-operads introduced by Blumberg and Hill to study structural problems in equivariant stable homotopy theory. In the original paper introducing these objects, Blumberg and…
Jones and Penneys showed that a finite depth subfactor planar algebra embeds in the bipartite graph planar algebra of its principal graph, via a Markov towers of algebras approach. We relate several equivalent perspectives on the notion of…
Classical spectral theory provides powerful tools for analyzing linear operators, but does not extend naturally to nonlinear or compositional settings. In particular, there is no general way to transport spectral invariants in a functorial…
We make precise the analogy between Goodwillie's calculus of functors in homotopy theory and the differential calculus of smooth manifolds by introducing a higher-categorical framework of which both theories are examples. That framework is…
For any smooth manifold $M$ of dimension $d\geq4$ we construct explicit classes in homotopy groups of spaces of embeddings of either an arc or a circle into $M$, in every degree that is a multiple of $d-3$, and show that they are detected…
We construct the unitary analogue of orthogonal calculus developed by Weiss, utilising model categories to give a clear description of the intricacies in the equivariance and homotopy theory involved. The subtle differences between real and…
We proved in a previous article that the bar complex of an E-infinity algebra inherits a natural E-infinity algebra structure. As a consequence, a well-defined iterated bar construction B^n(A) can be associated to any algebra over an…
The study of embeddings of smooth manifolds into Euclidean and projective spaces has been for a long time an important area in topology. In this paper we obtain improvements of classical results on embeddings of smooth manifolds, focusing…
Every $(\infty, n)$-category can be approximated by its tower of homotopy $(m, n)$-categories. In this paper, we prove that the successive stages of this tower are classified by k-invariants, analogously to the classical Postnikov tower for…
We identify topological symmetric homology as the free $\mathbb{E}_\infty$-algebra on an $\mathbb{E}_1$-algebra and topological braid homology as the free $\mathbb{E}_2$-algebra on an $\mathbb{E}_1$-algebra. In this way, topological…
Operads were originally defined as V-operads, that is, enriched in a symmetric or braided monoidal category V. The symmetry or braiding in V is required in order to describe the associativity axiom the operads must obey, as well as the…
We study a special type of $E_\infty$-operads that govern strictly unital $E_\infty$-coalgebras (and algebras) over the ring of integers. Morphisms of coalgebras over such an operad are defined by using universal $E_\infty$-bimodules. Thus…
In this paper, we provide a conceptual new construction of the algebraic structure on the pair of the Hochschild cohomology spectrum (cochain complex) and Hochschild homology spectrum, which is analogous to the structure of calculus on a…
This paper gives an explicit description of the categorical operad whose algebras are precisely symmetric monoidal categories. This allows us to place the operad in a sequence of four, and therefore a sequence of four successively stricter…
We analyze the boundaries of the moduli spaces of compactifications of the heterotic string on $T^d$, making particular emphasis on $d=2$ and its F-theory dual. We compute the OPE algebras as we approach all the infinite distance limits…
For operads with a map from the curved homotopy Lie operad, we introduce a corresponding curved variant `cTw' of Willwacher's operadic twisting comonad `Tw'. We show that cTw-coalgebra structures on such an operad are in bijection with…
In this short paper we apply some recent techniques developed by Schonsheck, and subsequently Carr-Harper, in the context of operadic algebras in spectra -- on convergence of Bousfield-Kan completions and comparisons with convergence of the…
If $B$ is a toric manifold and $E$ is a Whitney sum of complex line bundles over $B$, then the projectivization $P(E)$ of $E$ is again a toric manifold. Starting with $B$ as a point and repeating this construction, we obtain a sequence of…
Given a compact space $X$ that does not admit an embedding (an injective continuous function) into $\mathbb{R}^d$, we study the ''degree'' of discontinuity that any injective function $X \to \mathbb{R}^d$ must have. To this end, we define a…
To any affine scheme with a $\mathbb{G}_m$-action, we provide a Bousfield colocalization on the equivariant derived category of modules by constructing, via homotopical methods, an idempotent integral kernel. This endows the equivariant…
