There has been a great deal of research on graphs defined on algebraic structures in the last two decades. In this paper we begin an exploration of hypergraphs defined on algebraic structures, especially groups, to investigate whether this…
An introduction to the applications of algebraic surgery to the structure theory of high-dimensional topological manifolds.
Understanding, finding, or even deciding on the existence of real solutions to a system of equations is a very difficult problem with many applications. While it is hopeless to expect much in general, we know a surprising amount about these…
This is a survey article on real algebra and geometry, and in particular on its recent applications in optimization and convexity. We first introduce basic notions and results from the classical theory. We then explain how these relate to…
We discuss certain ternary algebraic structures appearing more or less naturally in various domains of theoretical and mathematical physics. Far from being exhaustive, this article is intended above all to draw attention to these algebras,…
This is an expository article, closely following the author's lecture at the 2014 Journal Differential Geometry conference.
These informal notes discuss a few basic notions and examples, with emphasis on constructions that may be relevant for analysis on metric spaces.
A new type of sectional curvature is introduced. The notion is purely algebraic and can be located in linear algebra as well as in differential geometry.
This is a survey of the theory of real trees and their applications.
This paper is an overview of my recent work on abstract homomorphisms of algebraic groups. It is based on a talk given at the Conference on Group Actions and Applications in Geometry, Topology, and Analysis held in Kunming in July 2012.
The purpose of this paper is to introduce an algebraic cohomology and formal deformation theory of left alternative algebras. Connections to some other algebraic structures are given also.
Real algebraic geometry is the study of semi-algebraic sets, subsets of $\R^k$ defined by Boolean combinations of polynomial equalities and inequalities. The focus of this thesis is to study quantitative results in real algebraic geometry,…
We aim at studying collections of algebraic structures defined over a commutative ring and investigating the complexity of significant constructions carried out on these objects. The assignment of measures of size, via a multiplicity…
These notes reproduce the content of a short, 50-minutes, survey talk given at the Nice University in September, 2004. We added a few topics that have not been touched on in the lecture by lack of time.
In this paper we introduce a new kind of topological space, called 'structured space', which locally resembles various kinds of algebraic structures. This can be useful, for instance, to locally study a space that cannot be globally endowed…
The notion of Lie algebroids over a topological ringed space provides a unified framework to study various geometric structures. This geometric concept is intimately connected with well-known algebraic structures, including Gerstenhaber…
The goal of this note is to provide a constructive version of the proof of local structure of etale algebras.
This is a survey on formality results relying on weight structures. A weight structure is a naturally occurring grading on certain differential graded algebras. If this weight satisfies a purity property, one can deduce formality. Algebraic…
This is a survey article on classical groups (over arbitrary division rings) and their geometries.
This text is a survey of derived algebraic geometry. It covers a variety of general notions and results from the subject with a view on the recent developments at the interface with deformation quantization.
