Let X be a right Hilbert C*-module over A. We study the geometry and the topology of the projective space P(X) of X, consisting of the orthocomplemented submodules of X which are generated by a single element. We also study the geometry of…
In this article we consider the homotopy theory of stratified spaces through a simplicial point of view. We first consider a model category of filtered simplicial sets over some fixed poset $P$, and show that it is a simplicial…
Let $G$ be a compact connected Lie group and let $\xi,\nu$ be complex vector bundles over the classifying space $BG$. The problem we consider is whether $\xi$ contains a subbundle which is isomorphic to $\nu$. The necessary condition is…
Let $R\subseteq \Bbb Q$ be a subring of the rationals and let $p$ be the least prime (if none, $p=\infty $) which is not invertible in $R.$ For an $R$-local $r$-connected $CW$-complex $X$ of dimension $\leq \min(r+2p-3,rp-1), r\geq 1, $ a…
In this paper we consider certain proejctions in the corona algebra of $C(X)\otimes B$ associated to $(p_0, p_1, \dots, p_n)$ where $p_i: X_i \to \mt_s$ a continuous projection valued section to the multiplier algebra of a stable…
We prove that the space $\mathscr{P}(\mathfrak{A})$ of pure states of a nonelementary, simple, separable, real rank zero $C^*$-algebra $\mathfrak{A}$ has trivial homotopy groups of all orders when $\mathscr{P}(\mathfrak{A})$ is equipped…
A poset-stratified space is a pair $(S, S \xrightarrow \pi P)$ of a topological space $S$ and a continuous map $\pi: S \to P$ with a poset $P$ considered as a topological space with its associated Alexandroff topology. In this paper we show…
Fix an odd prime $p$ and let $X$ be the $p$-localization of a finite suspended $CW$-complex. Given certain conditions on the reduced mod-$p$ homology $\bar H_*(X;\zmodp)$ of $X$, we use a decomposition of $\Omega\Sigma X$ due to the second…
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…
Let G be a finite group. The unit sphere in a finite-dimensional orthogonal G-representation motivates the definition of homotopy representations, due to tom Dieck. We introduce an algebraic analogue, and establish its basic properties…
We study the $p$-tuples of holomorphic vector fields $(X_1,X_2,\ldots,X_p)$ satisfying the barycentric property $\displaystyle\sum_k\exp tX_k=p\cdot\mathrm{id}$, where $\exp tX$ denotes the flow of $X$.
Assume $G$ is a solvable group whose elementary abelian sections are all finite. Suppose, further, that $p$ is a prime such that $G$ fails to contain any subgroups isomorphic to $C_{p^\infty}$. We show that if $G$ is nilpotent, then the…
In this work we use Hodge theoretic methods to study homotopy types of complex projective manifolds with arbitrary fundamental groups. The main tool we use is the \textit{schematization functor} $X \mapsto (X\otimes \mathbb{C})^{sch}$,…
Let $X$ be a homogeneous space of a connected linear algebraic group $G$ defined over the field of complex numbers $\mathbb C$. Let $x\in X({\mathbb C})$ be a point. We denote by $H$ the stabilizer of $x$ in $G$. When $H$ is connected, we…
For a complete and cocomplete category $\mathcal{C}$ with a well-behaved class of `projectives' $\bar{\mathcal{P}}$, we construct a model structure on the category $s\mathcal{C}$ of simplicial objects in $\mathcal{C}$ where the weak…
The homotopy group $\pi_{n-k} ({\bf C}^{n+1}-V)$ where $V$ is a hypersurface with a singular locus of dimension $k$ and good behavior at infinity is described using generic pencils. This is analogous to the van Kampen procedure for finding…
The purpose of this paper is to generalise Sullivan's rational homotopy theory to non-nilpotent spaces, providing an alternative approach to defining Toen's schematic homotopy types over any field k of characteristic zero. New features…
In this note we show that a $p$-complete nilpotent space $X$ has a $p$-complete suspension spectrum if and only if its homotopy groups $\pi_*X$ are bounded $p$-torsion. In contrast, if $\pi_*X$ is not all bounded $p$-torsion, we locate…
Homotopy type theory is a version of Martin-L\"of type theory taking advantage of its homotopical models. In particular, we can use and construct objects of homotopy theory and reason about them using higher inductive types. In this…
Given a commutative ring $R$ and finitely generated ideal $I$, one can consider the classes of $I$-adically complete, $L_0^I$-complete and derived $I$-complete complexes. Under a mild assumption on the ideal $I$ called weak pro-regularity,…
