Let $N$ be a compact, connected, nonorientable surface of genus $g$ with $n$ boundary components. Let $\lambda$ be a simplicial map of the complex of curves, $\mathcal{C}(N)$, on $N$ which satisfies the following: $[a]$ and $[b]$ are…

A class of simplicial complexes, which we call Buchsbaum* over a field, is introduced. Buchsbaum* complexes generalize triangulations of orientable homology manifolds as well as doubly Cohen-Macaulay complexes. By definition, the Buchsbaum*…

The author presents a new proof of injectivity of the composition of the inverse of the rational Chern Character in homology applied to the classifying space BG of a (countable) discrete group G, restricted to dimensions less or equal than…

We introduce twists by Cartan elements of conformal blocks on a curve X, corresponding to a Lie algebra g. We show that these twists define holomorphic functions, with theta-like behaviour, on a product of copies of its Jacobian J(X)^r. We…

We prove that a connected simplicial complex is uniquely determined by its complex of discrete Morse functions. This settles a question raised by Chari and Joswig. In the 1-dimensional case, this implies that the complex of rooted forests…

Quantum double construction, originally due to Drinfeld and has been since generalized even to the operator algebra framework, is naturally associated with a certain (quasitriangular) $R$-matrix ${\mathcal R}$. It turns out that ${\mathcal…

Let X be a locally compact space with a continuous proper action of a locally compact group G. Assuming that X satisfies a certain kind of duality in equivariant bivariant Kasparov theory, we can enrich the classical construction of…

In this paper, we establish basic material for future investigations of the analysis and geometry of the twistor bundle, and of differential operators with the twistor bundle as source and/or target, especially the Rarita-Schwinger…

The author, and independently De Concini, conjectured that the monodromy of the Casimir connection of a simple Lie algebra g is described by the quantum Weyl group operators of the quantum group U_h(g). The aim of this paper, and of its…

In this article we introduce a class of generalisations of the Jordan-Schwinger (JS) map which realises the recent proposed generalised sl(2) (G-sl(2)) algebra via two independent Generalised Heisenberg Algebras (GHA). Although the GHA and…

We introduce a coshuffle comultiplication on the singular chain complex of configuration spaces, and we show that this structure endows the configuration space with the structure of a differential graded coalgebra (DGCoAlg). We then prove…

In this paper we study a multiplier operator which is induced by the Schwarzian derivative of univalent functions with a quasiconformal extension to the extended complex plane. As applications, we show that the Brennan conjecture is…

We prove a conjecture due to Baumgaertel and Lledo according to which for every compact group G one has Z(G)^ \cong C(G), where the `chain group' C(G) is the free abelian group (written multiplicatively) generated by the set G^ of…

Given a pair $(X,\nabla)$, consisting of a closed Riemann surface $X$ and a holomorphic connection $\nabla$ on the trivial principal bundle $X\times\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{C})\to X$, the Riemann-Hilbert map sends $(X,\nabla)$ to its monodromy…

Deciding realizability of a given polyhedral map on a (compact, connected) surface belongs to the hard problems in discrete geometry, from the theoretical, the algorithmic, and the practical point of view. In this paper, we present a…

Let $A$ be an algebra and $\sigma$ an automorphism of $A$. A linear map $d$ of $A$ is called a $\sigma$-derivation of $A$ if $d(xy) = d(x)y + \sigma(x)d(y)$, for all $x, y \in A$. A linear map $D$ is said to be a generalized…

We introduce and study twisted triangular Banach algebras T_sigma(A,B;X), built from Banach algebras A,B, a Banach A-B bimodule X, and a pair of automorphisms sigma=(sigma_A,sigma_B). This construction extends the classical triangular…

We consider two twisted actions of a countable discrete group on $\sigma$-unital $C^*$-algebras. Then by taking the reduced crossed products, we get two inclusions of $C^*$-algebras. We suppose that they are strongly Morita equivalent as…

In this paper, we study weakly unital dg categories as they were defined by Kontsevich and Soibelman [KS, Sect.4]. We construct a cofibrantly generated Quillen model structure on the category $\mathrm{Cat}_{\mathrm{dgwu}}(\Bbbk)$ of small…

For a given group $G$ and a collection of subgroups $\mathcal F$ of $G$, we show that there exist a left induced model structure on the category of right $G$-simplicial sets, in which the weak equivalences and cofibrations are the maps that…
