We give a simple proof that (a generalization of) the complex of injective words has vanishing homology in all except the top degree.

We introduce the Insertion Chain Complex, a higher-dimensional extension of insertion graphs, as a new framework for analyzing finite sets of words. We study its topological and combinatorial properties, in particular its homology groups,…

A famous theorem of Nakaoka asserts that the cohomology of the symmetric group stabilizes. The first author generalized this theorem to non-trivial coefficient systems, in the form of $\mathrm{FI}$-modules over a field, though one now…

Homological stability has shown itself to be a powerful tool for the computation of homology of families of groups such as general linear groups, mapping class groups or automorphisms of free groups. We survey here tools and techniques for…

For any smooth compact manifold $W$ of dimension at least two we prove that the classifying spaces of its group of diffeomorphisms which fix a set of $k$ points or $k$ embedded disks (up to permutation) satisfy homology stability. The same…

We show that the Iwahori-Hecke algebras H_n of type A_{n-1} satisfy homological stability, where homology is interpreted as an appropriate Tor group. Our result precisely recovers Nakaoka's homological stability result for the symmetric…

In this paper, we develop a modified proof strategy for homological stability of linear groups, with the general linear groups serving as a primary example. Our arguments are more direct than those in the classical works of Quillen and…

Let $D_n \subseteq \Sigma_n$ be the set of derangements in the symmetric group. We prove that the complex of injective words generated by $\Sigma_n \setminus D_n$ is contractible. This gives a conceptual explanation to the well known fact…

We prove twisted homological stability with polynomial coefficients for automorphism groups of free nilpotent groups of any given class. These groups interpolate between two extremes for which homological stability was known before, the…

In this paper homology stability for unitary groups over a ring with finite unitary stable rank is established. Homology stability of symplectic groups and orthogonal groups appears as a special case of our results.

In this paper we prove stability results for the homology of the mapping class group of a surface. We get a stability range that is near optimal, and extend the result to twisted coefficients.

We discuss Nakamaye's Theorem and its recent extension to compact complex manifolds, together with some applications.

We prove Conjecture F from [VW12] which states that the complements of closures of certain strata of the symmetric power of a smooth irreducible complex variety exhibit rational homological stability. Moreover, we generalize this conjecture…

This paper consists of two related parts. In the first part we give a self-contained proof of homological stability for the spaces C_n(M;X) of configurations of n unordered points in a connected open manifold M with labels in a…

The problem of homological stability helps us to catch the structure of group homology. We calculate homological stability of special orthogonal groups, and we also calculate the stability of orthogonal groups with determinant-twisted…

We prove a general representation stability result for polynomial coefficient systems which lets us prove representation stability and secondary homological stability for many families of groups with polynomial coefficients. This gives two…

Conjecture F from [VW12] states that the complements of closures of certain strata of the symmetric power of a smooth irreducible complex variety exhibit rational homological stability. We prove a generalization of this conjecture to the…

We introduce a set of combinatorial techniques for studying the simplicial bounded cohomology of semi-simplicial sets, simplicial complexes and posets. We apply these methods to prove several new bounded acyclicity results for…

We give a complete and detailed proof of Harer's stability theorem for the homology of mapping class groups of surfaces, with the best stability range presently known. This theorem and its proof have seen several improvements since Harer's…

Recently, we obtained in [7] a new characterization for an orthogonal system to be a simple-minded system in the stable module category of any representation-finite self-injective algebra. In this paper, we apply this result to give an…
