Algebraic cycles on complex projective space P(V) are known to have beautiful and surprising properties. Therefore, when V carries a real or quaternionic structure, it is natural to ask for the properties of the groups of real or…
Described the algebraic structure on the space of homotopy classes of cycles with marked topological flags of disks. This space is a non-commutative monoid, with an Abelian quotient corresponding to the group of singular homologies…
We investigate the problem of defining group or loop structures on spheres, where by ''sphere'' we mean the level set q(x) = c of a general K-valued quadratic form q, for an invertible scalar c. When K is a field and q non-degenerate, then…
The existing classification of homogeneous quaternionic spaces is not complete. We study these spaces in the context of certain $N=2$ supergravity theories, where dimensional reduction induces a mapping between {\em special} real, K\"ahler…
We study the spaces of stable real and quaternionic vector bundles on a real algebraic curve. The basic relationship is established with unitary representations of an extension Z/2 by the fundamental group. By comparison with the space of…
We adapt the classical framework of algebraic theories to work in the setting of (infinity,1)-categories developed by Joyal and Lurie. This gives a suitable approach for describing highly structured objects from homotopy theory. A central…
We review the Hodge theory of some classic examples from mirror symmetry, with an emphasis on what is intrinsic to the A-model, and on interesting open questions and problems. In particular, we illustrate the construction of a quantum…
This thesis intends to make a contribution to the theories of algebraic cycles and moduli spaces over the real numbers. In the study of the subvarieties of a projective algebraic variety, smooth over the field of real numbers, the cycle…
Rigid meromorphic cocycles were introduced by Darmon and Vonk as a conjectural $p$-adic extension of the theory of singular moduli to real quadratic base fields. They are certain cohomology classes of $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z}[1/p])$ which…
We prove that extension groups in strict polynomial functor categories compute the rational cohomology of classical algebraic groups. This result was previously known only for general linear groups. We give several applications to the study…
The theory of p-local compact groups, developed in an earlier paper by the same authors, is designed to give a unified framework in which to study the p-local homotopy theory of classifying spaces of compact Lie groups and p-compact groups,…
Let $L$ be the language of rings. We provide an axiomatization of the $L$-theories of quaternions and octonions and characterize their models: they coincide, up to isomorphism, with quaternion and octonion algebras over a real closed field,…
The topology of periodic spaces has attracted a lot of interest in recent years in order to study and classify crystalline structures and other large homogeneous data sets, such as the distribution of galaxies in cosmology. In practice,…
We characterize H-spaces which are p-torsion Postnikov pieces of finite type by a cohomological property together with a necessary acyclicity condition. When the mod p cohomology of an H-space is finitely generated as an algebra over the…
We study the homotopy types of spaces of algebraic (rational) maps from real projective spaces into complex projective spaces. In a previous paper we have shown that the inclusion of the first space into the second one is a homotopy…
Let $V$ be a complete discrete valuation ring with residue field $\mathbb{F}$. We define a cyclic homology theory for algebras over $\mathbb{F}$, by lifting them to free algebras over $V$, which we enlarge to tube algebras and complete…
Collection of (equivariant) $\rm{PL}$-mappings admitting a relative abelian, cyclic, quaternionic, bicyclic, and quaternionic-cyclic structures are constructed.
We prove that the cyclic chain complex of the categorical coalgebra of singular chains on an arbitrary topological space $X$ is naturally quasi-isomorphic to the $S^1$-equivariant chains of the free loop space of $X$. This statement does…
We investigate similarities between the category of vector spaces and that of polytopal algebras, containing the former as a full subcategory. In Section 2 we introduce the notion of a polytopal Picard group and show that it is trivial for…
The real cohomology of the space of imbeddings of S^1 into R^n, n>3, is studied by using configuration space integrals. Nontrivial classes are explicitly constructed. As a by-product, we prove the nontriviality of certain cycles of…
