We prove that certain polyhedral products, including the moment-angle complexes, for the Alexander duals of shellable and sequentially Cohen-Macaulay complexes decompose into wedges of explicitly given suspension spaces, which implies the…

The topology of the intersection of two real homogeneous coaxial quadrics was studied by the second author who showed that its intersection with the unit sphere is in most cases diffeomorphic to a connected sum of sphere products. Combining…

Given a locally convex vector space with a topology induced by Hilbert seminorms and a continuous bilinear form on it we construct a topology on its symmetric algebra such that the usual star product of exponential type becomes continuous.…

Let X be a smooth proper curve over a finite field of characteristic p. We prove a product formula for p-adic epsilon factors of arithmetic D-modules on X. In particular we deduce the analogous formula for overconvergent F-isocrystals,…

We compute the homotopy type of the space of embeddings of convex disks with Legendrian boundary into a tight contact $3$-manifold, whenever the sum of the absolute value of the rotation number of the boundary with the Thurston-Bennequin…

In this paper we define and study a notion of discrete homology theory for metric spaces. Instead of working with simplicial homology, our chain complexes are given by Lipschitz maps from an $n$-dimensional cube to a fixed metric space. We…

We consider projective, irreducible, non-singular curves over an algebraically closed field $\k$. A cover $Y \to X$ of such curves corresponds to an extension $\Omega/\Sigma$ of their function fields and yields an isomorphism $\A_{Y} \simeq…

On a class of compact Hermitian manifolds including compact K\"{a}hler manifolds, we prove that the the relative non-pluripolar product is always well-defined. We also prove the monotonicity of the relative non-pluripolar product in terms…

The modular group algebra of an elementary abelian p-group is isomorphic to the restricted enveloping algebra of commutative restricted Lie algebra. The different ways of regarding this algebra result in different Hopf algebra structures…

We show that special cycles generate a large part of the cohomology of locally symmetric spaces associated to orthogonal groups. We prove in particular that classes of totally geodesic submanifolds generate the cohomology groups of degree…

The paper surveys some new results and open problems connected with such fundamental combinatorial concepts as polytopes, simplicial complexes, cubical complexes, and subspace arrangements. Particular attention is paid to the case of…

Chenciner and Jimenez Perez showed that the range of the spectra of the angular momenta of all the rigid motions of a fixed central configuration in a general Euclidean space form a convex polytope. In this note we explain how this result…

We express the averages of products of characteristic polynomials for random matrix ensembles associated with compact symmetric spaces in terms of Jack polynomials or Heckman and Opdam's Jacobi polynomials depending on the root system of…

We prove two homotopy decomposition theorems for the loops on co-H-spaces, including a generalization of the Hilton-Milnor Theorem. These are applied to problems arising in algebra, representation theory, toric topology, and the study of…

The F\'elix-Tanr\'e rational model for the polyhedral product of a fibre inclusion is considered. In particular, we investigate the rational model for the polyhedral product of a pair of Lie groups corresponding to arbitrary simplicial…

We study the anisotropy theorem for Stanley-Reisner rings of simplicial homology spheres in characteristic 2 by Papadakis and Petrotou. This theorem implies the Hard Lefschetz theorem as well as McMullen's g-conjecture for such spheres. Our…

We describe a new sequence of polytopes which characterize A_infinity maps from a topological monoid to an A_infinity space. Therefore each of these polytopes is a quotient of the corresponding multiplihedron. Later term(s) in our sequence…

The $n$-th symmetric product of a topological space $X$ is the orbit space of the natural action of the symmetric group $S_n$ on the product space $X^n$. In this paper, we compute the sequential topological complexities of (finite products…

We study the space of paths in a closed manifold $M$ with endpoints determined by an involution $f\colon M\to M$. If the involution is fixed point free and if $M$ is $2$-connected then this path space is the universal covering space of the…

In this paper we answer positively a question raised by Kapovich and Leeb in a paper titled "Finsler bordifications of symmetric and certain locally symmetric spaces". Specifically, we show that for a finite-dimensional vector space with a…
