We provide examples of non-surjective epimorphisms $H\to K$ in the category of Hopf algebras over a field, even with the additional requirement that $K$ have bijective antipode, by showing that the universal map from a Hopf algebra to its…

For any natural numbers $k \leq n$, the rational cohomology ring of the space of continuous maps $S^{2k-1} \to S^{2n-1}$ (respectively, $S^{4k-1} \to S^{4n-1}$) equivariant under the Hopf action of the circle (respectively, of the group…

For each integer $n\ge 1$, denote by $T_{n}$ the map $x\mapsto nx\mod 1$ from the circle group $\mathbb{T} = \mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}$ into itself. Let $p,q\ge 2$ be two multiplicatively independent integers. Using Baire Category arguments, we…

Let $G$ be a torus and $M$ a compact Hamiltonian $G$-manifold with finite fixed point set $M^G$. If $T$ is a circle subgroup of $G$ with $M^G=M^T$, the $T$-moment map is a Morse function. We will show that the associated Morse…

We present a method for computing $\mathbb{A}^1$-homotopy invariants of singularity categories of rings admitting suitable gradings. Using this we describe any such invariant, e.g. homotopy K-theory, for the stable categories of…

We provide further evidence to favor the fact that rank-one convexity does not imply quasiconvexity for two-component maps in dimension two. We provide an explicit family of maps parametrized by $\tau$, and argue that, for small $\tau$,…

A new family of local-global conjectures in the representation theory of finite groups has recently been proposed by Moret\'o. We show that one of the strongest of these conjectures, the strong subnormalizer conjecture, holds for…

Let p be a prime, and k be a field of characteristic p. We investigate the algebra structure and the structure of the cohomology ring for the connected Hopf algebras of dimension p^3, which appear in the classification obtained in [V.C.…

We prove that for every smooth Jordan curve $\gamma \subset \mathbb{C}$ and for every set $Q \subset \mathbb{C}$ of six concyclic points, there exists a non-constant quadratic polynomial $p \in \mathbb{C}[z]$ such that $p(Q) \subset…

A simple, self-contained proof is presented for the concavity of the map (A,B) --> Tr(A^p K^* B^(1-p) K). The author makes no claim to originality; this note gives Lieb's original argument in its simplest, rather than its most general,…

We show that, for any regular Poisson manifold, there is an injective natural linear map from the first leafwise cohomology space into the first Poisson cohomology space which maps the Reeb class of the symplectic foliation to the modular…

We develop a probabilistic approach to the celebrated Jacobian conjecture, which states that any Keller map (i.e. any polynomial mapping $F\colon \mathbb{C}^n \to \mathbb{C}^n$ whose Jacobian determinant is a nonzero constant) has a…

In the present article, we study the conjecture of Sharifi on the surjectivity of the map $\varpi_{\theta}$. Here $\theta$ is a primitive even Dirichlet character of conductor $Np$, which is exceptional in the sense of Ohta. After…

Taking an elementary and straightforward approach, we develop the concept of a regular value for a smooth map f: O -> P between smooth orbifolds O and P. We show that Sard's theorem holds and that the inverse image of a regular value is a…

We present new, unified proofs for the cell-like, $\mathbb{Z}/p$-, and $\mathbb{Q}$-resolution theorems. Our arguments employ extensions that are much simpler then those used by our predecessors. The techniques allow us to solve problems…

Working at the prime $2$, Curtis conjecture predicts that, in positive dimensions, spherical classes in $H_*QS^0$ only arise from Hopf invariant one and Kervaire invariant one elements. Eccles conjecture states that, in positive…

The Jacobian conjecture is a well-known open problem in affine algebraic geometry that asks if any polynomial endomorphism of the affine space $\mathbb{A}_{\mathbb{C}}^{n}$ ($n\geq2$) with jacobian $1$ is an automorphism. We present a…

We prove that the envelope of meromorphy of any imbedded symplectic sphere in $CP^2$ coincides with the whole $CP^2$. As a tool for the proof we use the Gromov theory of pseudo-holomorphic curves. Several results in this subject, such as…

First three sections of this overview paper cover classical topics of deformation theory of associative algebras and necessary background material. We then analyze algebraic structures of the Hochschild cohomology and describe the relation…

For $N \geq 2$, we study a certain sequence $(\rho_p^{(c_p)})$ of N-dimensional representations of the mapping class group of the one-holed torus arising from SO(3)-TQFT, and show that the conjecture of Andersen, Masbaum, and Ueno \cite{1}…
