Let $X$ be a nilpotent space such that there exists $p\geq 1$ with $H^p(X,\mathbb Q) \ne 0$ and $H^n(X,\mathbb Q)=0$ if $n>p$. Let $Y$ be a m-connected space with $m\geq p+1$ and $H^*(Y,\mathbb Q)$ is finitely generated as algebra. We…

Both simplicial sets and simplicial spaces are used pervasively in homotopy theory as presentations of spaces, where in both cases we extract the "underlying space" by taking geometric realization. We have a good handle on the category of…

Given a vector bundle $F$ on a variety $X$ and $W\subset H^0(F)$ such that the evaluation map $W\otimes \mathcal{O}_X\to F$ is surjective, its kernel $S_{F,W}$ is called generalized syzygy bundle. Under mild assumptions, we construct a…

Fiedorowicz suggested that it was likely that every finite simply connected CW complex is homotopy equivalent to the classifying space of a finite semigroup. We prove that every finite wedge of simply connected Moore spaces of finitely…

This paper concerns rigidity of the mapping class groups. We show that any homomorphism $\phi:{\rm Mod}_g\to {\rm Mod}_h$ between mapping class groups of closed orientable surfaces with distinct genera $g>h$ is trivial if $g\geq 3$ and has…

A discrete group G has periodic cohomology over R if there is an element in a cohomology group, cup product with which induces an isomorphism in cohomology after a certain dimension. Adem and Smith showed if R = Z, then this condition is…

In a previous work, by extending the classical Quillen construction to the non-simply connected case, we have built a pair of adjoint functors, 'model' and 'realization', between the categories of simplicial sets and complete differential…

Let $G$ be a group hyperbolic relative to a finite collection of subgroups $\mathcal P$. Let $\mathcal F$ be the family of subgroups consisting of all the conjugates of subgroups in $\mathcal P$, all their subgroups, and all finite…

The homotopy symmetric $C^*$-algebras are those separable $C^*$-algebras for which one can unsuspend in E-theory. We find a new simple condition that characterizes homotopy symmetric nuclear $C^*$-algebras and use it to show that the…

We start the general structure theory of not necessarily semisimple finite tensor categories, generalizing the results in the semisimple case (i.e. for fusion categories), obtained recently in our joint work with D.Nikshych. In particular,…

The singular simplicial set Sing(X) of a space X completely captures its weak homotopy type. We introduce a category of_controlled sets_, yielding _simplicial controlled sets_, such that one can functorially produce a singular simplicial…

A kind of unstable homotopy theory on the category of associative rings (without unit) is developed. There are the notions of fibrations, homotopy (in the sense of Karoubi), path spaces, Puppe sequences, etc. One introduces the notion of a…

Let $k$ be a field and consider the path algebra $kQ$ of the quiver $Q$. A pair of indecomposable $kQ$-modules $(Y,X)$ is called an orthogonal exceptional pair if the modules are exceptional and…

Given a complex space $X$, we cosidered the problem of finding a {\it hyperbolic model} of $X$. This is an object $\ip(X)$ with a morphism $i:X\to \ip(X)$ in such a way that $\ip(X)$ is ``hyperbolic'' in a suitable sense and $i$ is as close…

Let $R$ be a noetherian commutative ring, and \[ \mathbb F: ...\rightarrow F_2\rightarrow F_1\rightarrow F_0\rightarrow 0 \] a complex of flat $R$-modules. We prove that if $\kappa(\mathfrak p)\otimes_R\mathbb F$ is acyclic for every…

In this paper, we introduce a new class of structured spaces which is locally modeled by Costello's L-infinity spaces. This provides an alternative approach to study the derived geometric structures in the algebraic, analytic, or smooth…

We study homotopy decompositions of the classifying spaces $BG$ of compact connected Lie groups obtained by (relative) fiber-cofiber construction. Given a pair of Borel fibrations $ F \to E \to BG $ and $F' \to E' \to BG $, this…

In this paper, we introduce a cofibrant simplicial category that we call the free homotopy coherent adjunction and characterize its n-arrows using a graphical calculus that we develop here. The hom-spaces are appropriately fibrant, indeed…

For a topological group $G$ let $E_{\textsf{com}}(G)$ be the total space of the universal transitionally commutative principal $G$-bundle as defined by Adem--Cohen--Torres-Giese. So far this space has been most studied in the case of…

Let $f:G\rightarrow H$ be a homomorphism of groups, we construct a topological space $X_f$ such that its group of homeomorphisms is isomorphic to $G$, its group of homotopy classes of self-homotopy equivalences is isomorphic to $H$ and the…
