In this paper, we develop the new method to compute the homotopy groups of the mapping cone $C_f=Y\cup_{f}CX$ beyond the metastable range by analysing the homotopy of the $n$-th filtration of the relative James construction $J(X,A)$ for…

In this paper, we calculate the 2-local unstable homotopy groups of indecomposable $\mathbf{A}_3^2$-complexes. The main technique used is analysing the homotopy property of $J(X,A)$, defined by B. Gray for a CW-pair $(X,A)$, which is…

In this paper, we calculate the $n+3$, $n+4$ dimensional homotopy groups of indecomposable $\mathbf{A}_n^2$-complexes after localization at 2. This job is seen as a sequel to P.J. Hilton's work on the $n+1,n+2$ dimensional homotopy groups…

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 provide a family of spaces localized at 2, whose stable homotopy groups are summands of their unstable homotopy groups. Application to mod 2 Moore spaces are given.

It is well-known how to compute the structure of the second homotopy group of a space, $X$, as a module over the fundamental group, $\pi_1X$, using the homology of the universal cover and the Hurewicz isomorphism. We describe a new method…

For a complex projective space the inertia group, the homotopy inertia group and the concordance inertia group are isomorphic. In complex dimension 4n+1, these groups are related to computations in stable cohomotopy. Using stable homotopy…

The purpose of this paper is to describe a method for computing homotopy groups of the space of $\alpha$-stable representations of a quiver with fixed dimension vector and stability parameter $\alpha$. The main result is that the homotopy…

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 discuss the current state of knowledge of stable homotopy groups of spheres. We describe a new computational method that yields a streamlined computation of the first 61 stable homotopy groups, and gives new information about the stable…

Given a moduli problem posed using Geometric Invariant Theory, one can use Non-Reductive Geometric Invariant Theory to quotient unstable HKKN strata and construct 'moduli spaces of unstable objects', extending the usual moduli…

This paper is a synthesis and extension of three earlier papers on $PD_4$-complexes $X$ with fundamental group $\pi$ such that $c.d.\pi=2$ and $\pi$ has one end. Our goal is to show that the homotopy types of such complexes are determined…

Fix an odd prime $p$ and let $X$ be the $p$-localization of a finite suspended $CW$-complex. Given certain conditions on the reduced mod-$p$ homology $\bar H_*(X;\zmodp)$ of $X$, we use a decomposition of $\Omega\Sigma X$ due to the second…

We determine $\pi_*(BDiff_\partial(D^{2n})) \otimes \mathbb{Q}$ for $2n \geq 6$ completely in degrees $* \leq 4n-10$, far beyond the pseudoisotopy stable range. Furthermore, above these degrees we discover a systematic structure in these…

In this paper, we determined the $2,3$-components of the homotopy groups $\pi _{r+k}(\Sigma ^{k}\mathbb{H}P^{2})$ for all $ 7\leq r\leq15$ and all $\;k\geq0$, especially for the unstable ones. And we gave the applications, including the…

We determine explicitly the stable homotopy groups of Moore spaces up to the range 7, using an equivalence of categories which allows to consider each Moore space as an exact couple of $\mathbb Z$-modules.

We construct a graph complex calculating the integral ho- mology of the bordered mapping class groups. We compute the ho- mology of the bordered mapping class groups of various surfaces. Using the circle action on this graph complex, we…

Given a connected 2-complex X with fundamental group G, we show how pi_3(X) may be computed as a module over Z[G]. Further we show that if X is a finite connected 2-complex with G (the fundamental group) finite of odd order, then the stable…

This paper tackles the extension problems for three far-unsatble homotopy groups $\pi_{39}(S^{6})$, $\pi_{40}(S^{7})$, and $\pi_{41}(S^{8})$ localized at 2, the puzzles having remained unsolved for forty-five years. By a Toda bracket…

We compute the 2-primary $C_2$-equivariant stable homotopy groups $\pi^{C_2}_{s,c}$ for stems between 0 and 25 (i.e., $0 \leq s \leq 25$) and for coweights between -1 and 7 (i.e., $-1 \leq c \leq 7)$. Our results, combined with periodicity…
