Fix an odd prime $p$. Let $X$ be a pointed space whose $p$-completed K-theory $\mathrm{KU}_p^*(X)$ is an exterior algebra on a finite number of odd generators; examples include odd spheres and many H-spaces. We give a…

We prove a chain rule for the Goodwillie calculus of functors from spectra to spectra. We show that the (higher) derivatives of a composite functor $FG$ at a base object $X$ are given by taking the composition product (in the sense of…

Recently, the Johnson-McCarthy discrete calculus for homotopy functors was extended to include functors from an unbased simplicial model category to spectra. This paper completes the constructions needed to ensure that there exists a…

Recent work of Biedermann and R\"ondigs has translated Goodwillie's calculus of functors into the language of model categories. Their work focuses on symmetric multilinear functors and the derivative appears only briefly. In this paper we…

We prove the following generalization of a classical result of Adams: for any pointed and connected topological space $(X,b)$, that is not necessarily simply connected, the cobar construction of the differential graded (dg) coalgebra of…

We prove that the Goodwillie tower of a weak equivalence preserving functor from spaces to spectra can be expressed in terms of the tower for stable mapping spaces. Our proof is motivated by interpreting the functors P_n and D_n as…

We formulate and prove a chain rule for the derivative, in the sense of Goodwillie, of compositions of weak homotopy functors from simplicial sets to simplicial sets. The derivative spectrum dF(X) of such a functor F at a simplicial set X…

We give a shorter proof of Lemma 1.9 from Goodwillie, "Calculus III", which is the key step in proving that the construction P_nF gives an n-excisive functor.

Let A be a Hopf algebra and H a coalgebra. We shall describe and classify up to an isomorphism all Hopf algebras E that factorize through A and H: that is E is a Hopf algebra such that A is a Hopf subalgebra of E, H is a subcoalgebra in E…

This paper investigates the space of codimension zero embeddings of a Poincare duality space in a disk. One of our main results exhibits a tower that interpolates from the space of Poincare immersions to a certain space of "unlinked"…

The category of small covariant functors from simplicial sets to simplicial sets supports the projective model structure. In this paper we construct various localizations of the projective model structure and also give a variant for…

We adopt the viewpoint that topological And\'e-Quillen theory for commutative $S$-algebras should provide usable (co)homology theories for doing calculations in the sense traditional within Algebraic Topology. Our main emphasis is on…

If all objects of a simplicial combinatorial model category \cat A are cofibrant, then there exists the homotopy model structure on the category of small functors $\sS^{\cat A}$, where the fibrant objects are homotopy functors, i.e.,…

Consider a smooth affine algebraic variety $X$ over an algebraically closed field, and let a finite group $G$ act on it. We assume that the characteristic of the field is greater than the dimension of $X$ and the order of $G$. An explicit…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive group, with connected center, and $X$ a smooth complete curve, both defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Let $\operatorname{Bun}_G$ denote the stack of $G$-bundles on $X$. In…

We present general techniques for constructing functorial factorizations appropriate for model structures that are not known to be cofibrantly generated. Our methods use "algebraic" characterizations of fibrations to produce factorizations…

In the main part of this paper a connection is just a fiber projection onto a (not necessarily integrable) distribution or sub vector bundle of the tangent bundle. Here curvature is computed via the Froelicher-Nijenhuis bracket, and it is…

For a quasi-split connected reductive group $G$ over a local field $F$ we define a compact abelian group $\tilde\pi_1(G)$ and an extension $1 \to \tilde\pi_1(G) \to G(F)_\infty \to G(F) \to 1$ of topological groups equipped with a splitting…

In an intriguing paper arXiv:math/0509083 Khovanov proposed a generalization of homological algebra, called Hopfological algebra. Since then, several attempts have been made to import tools and techiniques from homological algebra to…

We construct a calculus of functors in the spirit of orthogonal calculus, which is designed to study "functors with reality" such as the Real classifying space functor, $BU_\mathbb{R}(-)$. The calculus produces a Taylor tower, the $n$-th…
