We study homological invariants of \'etale groupoids arising from Smale spaces, continuing on our previous work, but going beyond the stably disconnected case by incorporating resolutions in the space direction. We show that the homology…
This paper builds a general framework in which to study cohomology theories of strongly homotopy algebras, namely $A_\infty, C_\infty$ and $L_\infty$-algebras. This framework is based on noncommutative geometry as expounded by Connes and…
We give a new proof, using comparatively simple techniques, of the Sullivan conjecture: the space of pointed maps from the classifying space of the cyclic group of order $p$ to any finite-dimensional CW complex $K$ is contractible.
We describe the universal target of annular Khovanov-Rozansky link homology functors as the homotopy category of a free symmetric monoidal category generated by one object and one endomorphism. This categorifies the ring of symmetric…
Let $G$ be a discrete group. The topological category of finite dimensional unitary representations of $G$ is symmetric monoidal under direct sum and has an associated $\mathbb{E}_\infty$-space $\mathcal{K}^{\mathrm{def}}(G)$. We show that…
We connect the homotopy type of simplicial moduli spaces of algebraic structures to the cohomology of their deformation complexes. Then we prove that under several assumptions, mapping spaces of algebras over a monad in an appropriate…
Let X be a space, intended as a possibly curved spacetime, and A a precosheaf of C*-algebras on X. Motivated by algebraic quantum field theory, we study the Kasparov and Theta-summable K-homology of A interpreting them in terms of the…
In this paper we address the classification problem for locally compact (n-1)-connected CW-complexes with dimension less or equal than n+2 up to proper homotopy type. We obtain complete classification theorems in terms of purely algebraic…
Given a simply connected space $X$, there are several, a priori different, algebraic groups whose groups of $\mathbb Q$-points are isomorphic to the group of homotopy classes of homotopy automorphisms of the rationalization of $X$. We will…
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…
Kitchloo and Morava give a strikingly simple picture of elliptic cohomology at the Tate curve by studying a completed version of $S^1$-equivariant $K$-theory for spaces. Several authors (cf [ABG],[KM],[L]) have suggested that an equivariant…
It is now well known that the K-theory of a Waldhausen category depends on more than just its (triangulated) homotopy category (see [Schlichting]). The purpose of this note is to show that the K-theory spectrum of a (good) Waldhausen…
Locally trivial bundles of $C^*$-algebras with fibre $D \otimes \mathcal{K}$ for a strongly self-absorbing $C^*$-algebra $D$ over a finite CW-complex $X$ form a group $E^1_D(X)$ that is the first group of a cohomology theory $E^*_D(X)$. In…
We investigate a novel diagrammatic approach to examining strict actions of a Coxeter group or a braid group on a category. This diagrammatic language, which was developed in a series of papers by Elias, Khovanov and Williamson, provides…
We prove that a nilpotent space is both formal and coformal if and only if it is rationally homotopy equivalent to the derived spatial realization of a graded commutative Koszul algebra. We call such spaces Koszul spaces and we show that…
We give an alternative to Postnikov's homotopy classification of maps from 3-dimensional CW-complexes to homogeneous spaces G/H of Lie groups. It describes homotopy classes in terms of lifts to the group G and is suitable for extending the…
We construct a compactly generated and closed symmetric monoidal stable $\infty$-category $\mathtt{NSp'}$ and show that $\mathtt{hNSp'}^{op}$ contains the suspension stable homotopy category of separable $C^*$-algebras $\mathtt{\Sigma…
Let Aut(p) denote the topological monoid of self-fibre-homotopy equivalences of a fibration p:E\to B. We make a general study of this monoid, especially in rational homotopy theory. When E and B are simply connected CW complexes with E…
Due to the deep work of Tillmann, Madsen, Weiss and Galatius, the cohomology of the stable mapping class group $\gaminf$ is known with rational or finite field coefficients. Little is known about the integral cohomology. In this paper, we…
The paper describes homomorphisms between Douglas algebras and some semisimple Banach algebras. The main tool is a result on the structure of the space $C(Z,\mathfrak M)$ of continuous mappings from a connected first-countable $T_1$ space…
