This is the first in a sequence of articles exploring the relationship between commutative algebras and $E_\infty$-algebras in characteristic $p$ and mixed characteristic. In this paper we lay the groundwork by defining a new class of…

We introduce Deligne cohomology that classifies U(1) fibre bundles over 3-manifolds endowed with connections. We show how the structure of Deligne cohomology classes provides a way to perform exact (non-perturbative) computations in U(1)…

In the world of chain complexes E_n-algebras are the analogues of based n-fold loop spaces in the category of topological spaces. Fresse showed that operadic E_n-homology of an E_n-algebra computes the homology of an n-fold algebraic…

After the fundamental work of Livschitz in [1; 2], various research directions emerged, among which the following stand out: (i) the study of cocycles with values in groups and semigroups beyond R, as well as the investigation of…

This paper emphasizes the ubiquitous role of moduli spaces of algebraic curves in associative algebra and algebraic topology. The main results are: (1) the space of an operad with multiplication is a homotopy Gerstenhaber (i.e., homotopy…

In these lectures we present our minimality theorem by which in cohomology of a topological space appear multioperations which turn it ot Stasheff $A(\infty)$ algebra. This rich structure carries more information than just the structure of…

Suppose k is a field of characteristic 2, and $n,m\geq 4$ powers of 2. Then the $A_\infty$-structure of the group cohomology algebras $H^*(C_n,k)$ and $(H^*(C_m,k)$ are well known. We give results characterizing an $A_\infty$-structure on…

Using factorization homology techniques, we give a simple proof of the action of Kontsevich and Soibelman operad on the pair consisting of Hochschild cohomology and Hochschild homology. The proof obviously extends to higher Hochschild…

We show that the Chas-Sullivan loop product, a combination of the Pontrjagin product on the fiber and intersection product on the base, makes sense on the total space homology of any fiberwise monoid E over a closed oriented manifold M.…

We prove that the classical map comparing Adams' cobar construction on the singular chains of a pointed space and the singular cubical chains on its based loop space is a quasi-isomorphism preserving explicitly defined monoidal…

In this paper we introduce the concept of Deligne cohomology of an orbifold. We prove that the third Deligne cohomology group of a smooth \'{e}tale groupoid classify gerbes with connection over the groupoid. We argue that the $B$-field and…

A multi-chain mean-field theory is developed and applied to a two-dimensional system of weakly coupled S=1/2 Heisenberg chains. The environment of a chain C_0 is modeled by a number of neighbor chains C_d, d = +/-1,...,+/-n, with the edge…

We compute the multiplicative structure in the Hocshchild cohomology ring of a differential operators ring and the cap product of Hochschild cohomology on the Hochschild homology.

We introduce the notion of an algebraic cocycle as the algebraic analogue of a map to an Eilenberg-MacLane space. Using these cocycles we develop a ``cohomology theory" for complex algebraic varieties. The theory is bigraded, functorial,…

We introduce the notion of operadic torsors and operadic quasi-torsors. We show that if an operadic (quasi-)torsor between two operads exists, then these operads are (quasi-)isomorphic. As an application we present the (arguably) shortest…

The model of a topological quantum computer is a promising one due to its natural resistance to noise and other errors. Operations in such a computer are implemented by braiding the trajectories of anyons. While it is easy to understand how…

Let $(S,L)$ be a Lie-Rinehart algebra such that $L$ is $S$-projective and let $U$ be its universal enveloping algebra. In this paper we present a spectral sequence which converges to the Hochschild cohomology of $U$ with values on a…

In this paper we deal with the action of the symmetric group on the cohomology of the configuration space $C_n(d)$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$. This topic has been studied by several authors (see the introduction). On the cohomology…

This survey paper is an exposition of old and recent results of Kostant and al. on the relationships between the exterior algebra of a simple Lie algebra and the action of the Casimir operator on it. Our exposition relies on u-cohomology…

An operator $T$ on a Banach space is said to be of chain $N$ if there exist non-scalar operators $S_1,...,S_{N-1}$ and a non-zero compact $K$ such that $$T \leftrightarrow S_1 \leftrightarrow S_2 \leftrightarrow ...\leftrightarrow S_{N-1}…
