Let $G$ be an algebraic group and $\Gamma$ a finite subgroup of automorphisms of $G$. Fix also a possibly ramified $\Gamma$-covering $\widetilde{X} \to X$. In this setting one may define the notion of $(\Gamma,G)$-bundles over…
We derive a set of generators for the rational homology of the desingularised genus one mapping space $\widetilde{\mathcal{M}}_{1,n}(\mathbb{P}^r,d)$ constructed by Vakil--Zinger and qualitatively describe the relations among the…
Let $\mathbb{K}$ denote an algebraically closed field and $A$ a free product of finitely many semisimple associative $\mathbb{K}$-algebras. We associate to $A$ a finite acyclic quiver $\Gamma$ and show that the category of finite…
We establish a foundational homotopical framework for ternary $\Gamma$-modules by establishing that $\mathcal{T}\text{-Mod}$ is a Barr-exact, monoidal closed category. We resolve the long-standing "additivity obstruction" in non-binary…
Let $G$ be a compact Lie group. (Compact) topological $G$-manifolds have the $G$-homotopy type of (finite-dimensional) countable $G$-CW complexes (2.5). This partly generalizes Elfving's theorem for locally linear $G$-manifolds [Elf96],…
We construct E-infinity cell algebra models for the cochain algebras of the free and based loop spaces on a simply-connected topological space. Techniques from rational homotopy theory are exploited throughout.
We show that if $G\times M \to M$ is a cohomogeneity one action of a compact connected Lie group $G$ on a compact connected manifold $M$ then $H^*_G(M)$ is a Cohen-Macaulay module over $H^*(BG)$. Moreover, this module is free if and only if…
We show that for some classes of groups $G$, the homotopy fiber $E_{\mathrm{com}} G$ of the inclusion of the classifying space for commutativity $E_{\mathrm{com}} G$ into the classifying space $BG$, is contractible if and only if $G$ is…
In this paper, we study the algebraic symplectic geometry of the singular moduli spaces of Higgs bundles of degree $0$ and rank $n$ on a compact Riemann surface $X$ of genus $g$. In particular, we prove that such moduli spaces are…
We introduce the notion of an effective Kan fibration, a new mathematical structure that can be used to study simplicial homotopy theory. Our main motivation is to make simplicial homotopy theory suitable for homotopy type theory. Effective…
Let $\mathbb{k}$ be a commutative ring with global dimension zero. We show that we can rigidify homotopy coherent comodules in connective modules over the Eilenberg-Mac Lane spectrum of $\mathbb{k}$. That is, the $\infty$-category of…
We discuss the use of gauge fields to stabilize complex structure moduli in Calabi-Yau three-fold compactifications of heterotic string and M-theory. The requirement that the gauge fields in such models preserve supersymmetry leads to a…
We compare two properties for a CW-space $X$ of finite type: (1) being homotopy equivalent to a CW-complex without $j$-cells for $k\leq j\leq \ell$ (($k,\ell$)-cellfree) and (2) $H^j(X;R)=0$ for any $\mathbb Z\pi_1(X)$-module $R$ when…
In this note we identify two complex structures (one is given by algebraic geometry, the other by gauge theory) on the set of isomorphism classes of holomorphic bundles with section on a given compact complex manifold. In the case of line…
Given based cellular spaces X and Y, X compact, we define a sequence of increasingly fine equivalences on the based-homotopy set [X,Y].
Let $M_{l,m}$ be the total space of the $S^3$-bundle over $S^4$ classified by the element $l\sigma+m\rho\in{\pi_4(SO(4))}$, $l,m\in\mathbb Z$. In this paper we study the homotopy theory of gauge groups of principal $G$-bundles over…
We consider the moduli space MN of flat unitary connections on an open Kaehler manifold U (complement of a divisor with normal crossings) with restrictions on their monodromy transformations. Using intersection and L2 cohomologies with…
Let $M$ denote a two-dimensional Moore space (so $H_2(M; \Z) = 0$), with fundamental group $G$. The $M$-cellular spaces are those one can build from $M$ by using wedges, push-outs, and telescopes (and hence all pointed homotopy colimits).…
In previous works, an operator was developed for heterotic compactifications on $\mathbb{R}^{2,1}\times G_2$ and $AdS_3 \times G_2$, which preserves $N=1$ $d=3$ supersymmetry and whose kernel is related to the moduli of the…
The homotopy theory of gauge groups has received considerable attention in recent decades. In this work, we study the homotopy theory of gauge groups over some high dimensional manifolds. To be more specific, we study gauge groups of…
