This is the first of a series of papers devoted to lay the foundations of Algebraic Geometry in homotopical and higher categorical contexts (for part II, see math.AG/0404373). In this first part we investigate a notion of higher topos. For…

The holomorph of a discrete group $G$ is the universal semi-direct product of $G$. In chapter 1 we describe why it is an interesting object and state main results. In chapter 2 we recall the classical definition of the holomorph as well as…

The object of this article is to compute the holonomy group of the normal connection of complex parallel submanifolds of the complex projective space. We also give a new proof of the classification of complex parallel submanifolds by using…

Covering spaces are a fundamental tool in algebraic topology because of the close relationship they bear with the fundamental groups of spaces. Indeed, they are in correspondence with the subgroups of the fundamental group: this is known as…

This paper introduces a categorification of $k$-algebras called 2 -algebras, where k is a commutative ring. We define the 2-algebras as a 2-category with single object in which collections of all 1-morphisms and all 2-morphisms are…

The relationship between associative composition algebras of dimensions 2 and 4 within the context of homogeneous spaces, with a particular focus on Hamiltonian quaternions, is explored. In the special case of Hamiltonian quaternions, the…

We prove that a differential field K is algebraically closed and Picard-Vessiot closed if and only if the differential Galois cohomology group H^1_\partial(K,G) is trivial for any linear differential algebraic group G over K. We give an…

In this paper we study the ring $\mathcal{P}$ of combinatorial convex polytopes. We introduce the algebra of operators $\mathcal{D}$ generated by the operators $d_k$ that send an $n$-dimensional polytope $P^n$ to the sum of all its…

The purpose of this paper is to make the theory of vertex algebras trivial. We do this by setting up some categorical machinery so that vertex algebras are just ``singular commutative rings'' in a certain category. This makes it easy to…

The article gives the second part of the treatise on Regular Algebraic $K$-theory (Sections V & VI) of the author. Regular algebraic $K$-theory for groups is a homology theory for discrete groups closely connected to (but different from)…

As an example of the categorical apparatus of pseudo algebras over 2-theories, we show that pseudo algebras over the 2-theory of categories can be viewed as pseudo double categories with folding or as appropriate 2-functors into…

The theory of p-local compact groups, developed in an earlier paper by the same authors, is designed to give a unified framework in which to study the p-local homotopy theory of classifying spaces of compact Lie groups and p-compact groups,…

In this work we solve the problem of providing a Morita invariant definition of Lie and Courant algebroids over Lie groupoids. By relying on supergeometry, we view these structures as instances of vector fields on graded groupoids which are…

In an earlier paper it was proved that if a differential field $(K,\delta)$ is algebraically closed and closed under Picard-Vessiot extensions then every differential algebraic principal homogeneous space over K for a linear differential…

This paper investigates the $\mathrm{K}$-theory of twisted groupoid $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras. It is shown that a homotopy of twists on an ample groupoid satisfying the Baum-Connes conjecture with coefficients gives rise to an isomorphism…

We define and study homotopy groups of cubical sets. To this end, we give four definitions of homotopy groups of a cubical set, prove that they are equivalent, and further that they agree with their topological analogues via the geometric…

In the paper the foundation of the $k$-orbit theory is developed. The theory opens a new simple way to the investigation of groups and multidimensional symmetries. The relations between combinatorial symmetry properties of a $k$-orbit and…

This is a survey of recent progress in several areas of combinatorial algebra. We consider combinatorial problems about free groups, polynomial algebras, free associative and Lie algebras. Our main idea is to study automorphisms and, more…

We build free, bigraded bidifferential algebra models for the forms on a complex manifold, with respect to a strong notion of quasi-isomorphism and compatible with the conjugation symmetry. This answers a question of Sullivan. The resulting…

We use the differential algebra of polytopes to explain the known remarkable relation of the combinatorics of the associahedra and permutohedra with the universal compositional and multiplicative inversion formulas for the formal power…
