A refined notion of curvature for a linear system of Hermitian vector spaces, in the sense of Grothendieck, leads to the unitary classification of a large class of analytic Hilbert modules. Specifically, we study Hilbert sub-modules, for…

This paper gives a uniform-theoretic refinement of classical homotopy theory. Both cubical sets (with connections) and uniform spaces admit classes of weak equivalences, special cases of classical weak equivalences, appropriate for the…

We decompose the K-theory space of a Waldhausen category in terms of its Dwyer-Kan simplicial localization. This leads to a criterion for functors to induce equivalences of K-theory spectra that generalizes and explains many of the criteria…

In this expository paper we present an overview of various graphical categorifications of the Heisenberg algebra and its Fock space representation. We begin with a discussion of "weak" categorifications via modules for Hecke algebras and…

The unitary group $\mathrm U(\mathcal H)$ on an infinite dimensional complex Hilbert space $\mathcal H$ in its strong topology is a topological group and has some further nice properties, e.g. it is metrizable and contractible if $\mathcal…

Like categories, small 2-categories have well-understood classifying spaces. In this paper, we deal with homotopy types represented by 2-diagrams of 2-categories. Our results extend to homotopy colimits of 2-functors lower categorical…

Constructing and manipulating homotopy types from categorical input data has been an important theme in algebraic topology for decades. Every category gives rise to a `classifying space', the geometric realization of the nerve. Up to weak…

In [arXiv:2008.04625] the authors constructed a classifying space for polystable holomorphic vector bundles on a compact K\"ahler manifold using analytic GIT theory. The aim of this article is to show that this classifying space taken in…

We construct a new category of vector spaces which contains both the standard category of vector spaces and Grassmannians. Its space of objects classifies vector bundles, its space of morphisms classifies bundle isomorphisms, and it can be…

For a sequence of uniformly bounded, degenerate semigroups on a Hilbert space, we compare various types of convergences to a limit semigroup. Among others, we show that convergence of the semigroups, or of the resolvents of the generators,…

We investigate if an existing notion of weak sequential convergence in a Hadamard space can be induced by a topology. We provide an answer on what we call weakly proper Hadamard spaces. A notion of dual space is proposed and it is shown…

We introduce the category HG, whose objects are topological groupoids endowed with compatible measure theoretic data: a Haar system and a measure on the unit space. We then define and study the notion of weak-pullback in the category of…

We define the notion of {\em classifying space} of a topological stack and show that every topological stack \X has a classifying space X which is a topological space well-defined up to weak homotopy equivalence. Under a certain…

We investigate the extent to which the weak equivalences in a model category can be equipped with algebraic structure. We prove, for instance, that there exists a monad T such that a morphism of topological spaces admits T-algebra structure…

We show that the graded Grothendieck group classifies unital Leavitt path algebras of primitive graphs up to graded homotopy equivalence. To this end, we further develop classification techniques for Leavitt path algebras by means of…

Weakly-irreducible not irreducible subalgebras of $\so(1,n+1)$ were classified by L. Berard Bergery and A. Ikemakhen. In the present paper a geometrical proof of this result is given. Transitively acting isometry groups of Lobachevskian…

Given a topological group G, its orbit category Orb_G has the transitive G-spaces G/H as objects and the G-equivariant maps between them as morphisms. A well known theorem of Elmendorf then states that the category of G-spaces and the…

We show that the unit ball of a Hilbert space in its weak topology is a continuous image of the countable power of the Alexandroff compactification of a discrete set, and we deduce some combinatorial properties of its lattice of open sets…

We prove that for the action of a finite constant group scheme, equivariant algebraic $K$-theory is represented by a colimit of Grassmannians in the equivariant motivic homotopy category. Using this result we show that the set of…

We study K-theory classes of Hamiltonian loop group spaces represented by admissible Fredholm complexes. We prove various equivariant index formulae in this context. In a sequel to this article we show that, when specialized to a family of…
