Given an E-infinity ring spectrum R, with motivation from chromatic homotopy theory, we define relative effective Cartier divisors for a spectral Deligne-Mumford stack over Spet(R) and prove that, as a functor from connective R-algebras to…

Using Ravenel's Thom spectrum $X(n)$, we introduce the concept of chromatic defect, which measures how far a spectrum is from being complex-orientable. We compute the chromatic defect of various examples of interest, such as finite spectra,…

Let $e_n$ be the connective cover of the Morava $E$-theory spectrum $E_n$ of height $n$. In this paper we compute its homology $H_*(e_n;\mathbb{F}_p)$ for any prime $p$ and $n \leq 4$ up to possible multiplicative extensions. In order to…

We study the relationship between the transchromatic localizations of Morava $E$-theory, $L_{K(n-1)}E_n$, and formal groups. In particular, we show that the coefficient ring $\pi_0L_{K(n-1)}E_n$ has a modular interpretation, representing…

We review some recent results concerning gauge theories in various dimensions. In particular, we discuss RG fixed points and ``mirror'' symmetry duality in 3d N=4 supersymmetric gauge theories and a classification of non-trivial RG fixed…

We generalize the nonabelian Poincare duality theorems of Salvatore in [Sal01] and Lurie in [Lur09] to the case of not necessarily grouplike E_n-algebras (in the category of spaces). We define a stabilization procedure based on McDuff's…

We show that the $\mathbb{Z}/2$-equivariant Morava K-theories with reality (as defined by Hu) are self-dual with respect to equivariant Anderson duality. In particular, there is a universal coefficients exact sequence in Morava K-theory…

The Morava $E$-theories, $E_{n}$, are complex-oriented $2$-periodic ring spectra, with homotopy groups $\mathbb{W}_{\mathbb{F}_{p^{n}}}[[u_{1}, u_{2}, ... , u_{n-1}]][u,u^{-1}]$. Here $\mathbb{W}$ denotes the Witt vector ring. $E_{n}$ is a…

We show that Lubin-Tate spectra at the prime $2$ are Real oriented and Real Landweber exact. The proof is by application of the Goerss-Hopkins-Miller theorem to algebras with involution. For each height $n$, we compute the entire homotopy…

In this lecture I review recent results on the use of Solvable Lie Algebras as an efficient description of the scalar field sector of supergravities in relation with their non perturbative structure encoded in the U-duality group. I also…

Let $p$ be an odd prime and let $\mathit{EO} = E_{p-1}^{hC_p}$ be the $C_p$ fixed points of height $p-1$ Morava $E$ theory. We say that a spectrum $X$ has algebraic $\mathit{EO}$ theory if the splitting of $K_*(X)$ as an $K_*[C_p]$-module…

We study K(n)*(Gr(d,m)) for all n - the 2-local Morava K-theories of the real Grassmanian Gr(d,m) of d-planes in R^m, about which very little has been previously computed. We conjecture that the Atiyah-Hirzebruch Spectral Sequences…

The close relationship between the scheme of level structures on the universal deformation of a formal group and the Morava $E$-cohomology of finite abelian groups has played an important role in the study of power operations for Morava…

We prove a representation stability result for the second homology groups of Torelli subgroups of mapping class groups and automorphism groups of free groups. This strengthens the results of Boldsen-Hauge Dollerup and Day-Putman. We also…

We revisit the problem of Stone duality for lattices with various quasioperators, first studied in [14], presenting a fresh duality result. The new result is an improvement over that of [14] in two important respects. First, the…

Let $D_{n,\gamma}$ be the complex of graphs on $n$ vertices and domination number at least $\gamma$. We prove that $D_{n,n-2}$ has the homotopy type of a finite wedge of 2-spheres. This is done by using discrete Morse theory techniques.…

This paper extends the Alternative to Morse-Novikov theory we have proposed in Burghelea (New topological invariants for real- and angle valued maps, World Scientific, Hackensack, 2018) from real- and angle-valued map to closed 1-forms. For…

Let G be a closed subgroup of G_n, the extended Morava stabilizer group. Let E_n be the Lubin-Tate spectrum, let X be an arbitrary spectrum with trivial G-action, and define E^(X) to be L_K(n)(E_n ^ X). We prove that E^(X) is a continuous…

We consider discontinuous operations of a group $G$ on a contractible $n$-dimensional manifold $X$. Let $E$ be a finite dimensional representation of $G$ over a field $k$ of characteristics 0. Let $\mathcal{E}$ be the sheaf on the quotient…

Let $p$ be a prime, $n \geq 1$, $K(n)$ the $n$th Morava $K$-theory spectrum, $\mathbb{G}_n$ the extended Morava stabilizer group, and $K(A)$ the algebraic $K$-theory spectrum of a commutative $S$-algebra $A$. For a type $n+1$ complex $V_n$,…
