We study the homotopy groups of open books in terms of those of their pages and bindings. Under homotopy theoretic conditions on the monodromy we prove an integral decomposition result for the based loop space on an open book, and under…

Let $\mathcal{E}(X)$ be the group of homotopy classes of self homotopy equivalences for a connected CW complex $X$. We observe two classes of maps $\mathcal{E}$-maps and co-$\mathcal{E}$-maps. They are defined as the maps $X\to Y$ that…

Let $R\subseteq \Bbb Q$ be a subring of the rationals and let $p$ be the least prime (if none, $p=\infty $) which is not invertible in $R.$ For an $R$-local $r$-connected $CW$-complex $X$ of dimension $\leq \min(r+2p-3,rp-1), r\geq 1, $ a…

We generalize the Harnack-Thom theorem to relate the ranks of the Lawson homology groups with $\Z_2$-coefficients of a real quasiprojective variety with the ranks of its reduced real Lawson homology groups. In the case of zero-cycle group,…

Let $X$ be a simply connected pointed space with finitely generated homotopy groups. Let $\Pi_n(X)$ denote the set of all continuous maps $a:I^n\to X$ taking $\partial I^n$ to the basepoint. For $a\in\Pi_n(X)$, let $[a]\in\pi_n(X)$ be its…

We define two model structures on the category of bicomplexes concentrated in the right half plane. The first model structure has weak equivalences detected by the totalisation functor. The second model structure's weak equivalences are…

In this text we expose basic cases of some fundamental ideas and methods of topology. Namely, of homotopy, degree, fundamental group, covering, Whitehead invariant, etc. This is done by considering the elementary example: closed polygonal…

In this short note we show that the homotopy category of smooth compactifications of smooth algebraic varieties is equivalent to the homotopy category of smooth varieties over a field of characteristic zero. As an application we show that…

Expanding a result of Serre on finite CW-complexes, we show that the Brauer group coincides with the cohomological Brauer group for arbitrary compact spaces. Using results from the homotopy theory of classifying spaces for Lie groups, we…

We present a development of the theory of higher groups, including infinity groups and connective spectra, in homotopy type theory. An infinity group is simply the loops in a pointed, connected type, where the group structure comes from the…

We introduce a class of proper differential graded algebras which we call Serre cyclotomic. They generalize fractionally Calabi-Yau algebras and categorify de la Pe\~na's algebras of cyclotomic type. Path algebras of affine type and…

We exhibit a simple construction, based on elementary linear algebra, for a class of examples of finite $p$-groups of nilpotence class $2$ all of whose automorphisms are central.

Given a relation on $ X \times Y $, we can construct two abstract simplicial complexes called Dowker complexes. The geometric realizations of these simplicial complexes are homotopically equivalent. We show that if two relations are…

A homotopy analogue of the notion of a triangular Lie bialgebra is proposed with a goal of extending the basic notions of theory of quantum groups to the context of homotopy algebras and, in particular, introducing a homotopical…

In this note, we introduce a class of cell decompositions of PL manifolds and polyhedra which are more general than triangulations yet not as general as CW complexes; we propose calling them PLCW complexes. The main result is an analog of…

A $2$-matching complex is a simplicial complex which captures the relationship between $2$-matchings of a graph. In this paper, we will use discrete Morse Theory and the Matching Tree Algorithm to prove homotopical results. We will consider…

In this paper we obtain a description of the Grothendieck group of complex vector bundles over the classifying space of a p-local finite group in terms of representation rings of subgroups of its Sylow. We also prove a stable elements…

This paper takes its starting point in an idea of Grothendieck on the representation of homotopy types. We show that any locally finite nilpotent homotopy can be represented by a simplicial set which is a finitely generated free group in…

We establish a large class of homotopy coherent Morita-equivalences of Dold-Kan type relating diagrams with values in any weakly idempotent complete additive $\infty$-category; the guiding example is an $\infty$-categorical Dold-Kan…

Let $P^{2n+1}$ be a two-cell complex which is formed by attaching a $(2n+1)$--cell to a $2m$--sphere by a suspension map. We construct a universal space $U$ for $P^{2n+1}$ in the category of homotopy associative, homotopy commutative…
