In this paper we develop the theory of operads, algebras and modules in cofibrantly generated symmetric monoidal model categories. We give J-semi model strucures, which are a slightly weaker version of model structures, for operads and…

In this paper, we study compatible Leibniz algebras. We characterize compatible Leibniz algebras in terms of Maurer-Cartan elements of a suitable differential graded Lie algebra. We define a cohomology theory of compatible Leibniz algebras…

In this paper, we set up two surgery theories and two kinds of Whitehead torsion for foliations. First, we construct a bounded surgery theory and bounded Whitehead torsion for foliations, which correspond to the Connes' foliation algebra in…

An elementary introduction to the principles of algebraic surgery.

Convergent rewriting systems are well-known tools in the study of the word-rewriting problem. In particular, a presentation of a monoid by a finite convergent rewriting system gives an algorithm to decide the word problem for this monoid.…

We describe an operation which modifies a Lagrangian submanifold $L$ in a symplectic manifold $(M, \omega)$ such as to produce a new immersed Lagrangian submanifold $L'$, which as a smooth manifold is obtained by surgery along a framed…

We associate a bivariant theory to any suitable oriented Borel-Moore homology theory on the category of algebraic schemes or the category of algebraic G-schemes. Applying this to the theory of algebraic cobordism yields operational…

A celebrated theorem of Klein implies that any hypergeometric differential equation with algebraic solutions is a pull-back of one of the few standard hypergeometric equations with algebraic solutions. The most interesting cases are…

We investigate with the help of Clifford algebraic methods the Mandelbrot set over arbitrary two-component number systems. The complex numbers are regarded as operator spinors in D\times spin(2) resp. spin(2). The thereby induced (pseudo)…

We introduce M\"obius strip diagram algebras (and their monoid and categorical versions) as subalgebras of a partition-style diagram calculus in which strands may carry handles and M\"obius strip features. We identify the resulting diagram…

This paper aims to find a unified approach to studying the cohomology theories of various operators on Leibniz algebras. We first introduce deformation maps in a proto-twilled Leibniz algebra to do this. Such maps generalize various…

In this paper, we introduce the cohomology theory of relative Rota-Baxter operators on Leibniz algebras. We use the cohomological approach to study linear and formal deformations of relative Rota-Baxter operators. In particular, the notion…

For every $k \geq 2$ we construct infinitely many $4k$-dimensional manifolds that are all stably diffeomorphic but pairwise not homotopy equivalent. Each of these manifolds has hyperbolic intersection form and is stably parallelisable. In…

For a knot $K$ in a homology $3$-sphere $\Sigma$, let $M$ be the result of $2/q$-surgery on $K$, and let $X$ be the universal abelian covering of $M$. Our first theorem is that if the first homology of $X$ is finite cyclic and $M$ is a…

We investigate algebras with one operation. We study when these algebras form a monoidal category and analyze Koszulness and cyclicity of the corresponding operads. We also introduce a new kind of symmetry for operads, the dihedrality,…

Consider a three dimensional cusped spherical $\mathrm{CR}$ manifold $M$ and suppose that the holonomy representation of $\pi_1(M)$ can be deformed in such a way that the peripheral holonomy is generated by a non-parabolic element. We prove…

We analyze the behavior of polarized complex variations of Hodge structure on the punctured unit disk. For integral variations of Hodge structure, this analysis was first carried out by Wilfried Schmid. We get rid of the assumption that the…

A Clifford algebra over the binary field 2 = {0,1} is a second-order classical logic that is substantially richer than Boolean algebra. We use it as a bridge to a Clifford algebraic quantum logic that is richer than the usual Hilbert space…

2-group symmetries arise in physics when a 0-form symmetry $G^{[0]}$ and a 1-form symmetry $H^{[1]}$ intertwine, forming a generalised group-like structure. Specialising to the case where both $G^{[0]}$ and $H^{[1]}$ are compact, connected,…

It has become obvious that certain singular phenomena cannot be explained by a mere investigation of the configuration space, defined as the solution set of the loop closure equations. For example, it was observed that a particular 6R…
