We introduce for any Poisson algebra a bicomplex of free Poisson modules, and use it to show that the Poisson cohomology theory introduced in the paper "[M. Flato, M. Gerstenhaber and A. A. Voronov, Cohomology and Deformation of Leibniz…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of embedding tensor on 3-Hom-Lie algebras and naturally induce 3-Hom-Leibniz algebras. Moreover, the cohomology theory of embedding tensors on 3-Hom-Lie algebras is defined. As an application, we show…
This paper describes an approach to computer aided calculations in the cohomology of arithmetic groups. It complements existing literature on the topic by emphasizing homotopies and perturbation techniques, rather than cellular subdivision,…
This paper is a survey of our work based on the stratified Morse theory of Goresky and MacPherson. First we discuss the Morse theory of Euclidean space stratified by an arrangement. This is used to show that the complement of a complex…
Let $ \mathbb{A}$ be a cellular algebra over a field $\mathbb{F}$ with a decomposition of the identity $ 1_{\mathbb{A}} $ into orthogonal idempotents $ e_i$, $i \in I$ (for some finite set $I$) satisfying some properties. We describe the…
We explore the special structure of the top-dimensional homology of any compact triangulable space $X$ of dimension $d$. Since there are no $(d+1)$-dimensional cells, the top homology equals the top cycles and is thus a free abelian group.…
Standard combinatorial construction, due to Kontsevich, associates to any $\ai$-algebra with an invariant inner product, an inhomogeneous class in the cohomology of the moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces with marked points. We propose an…
This is the first installment of a series of papers whose aim is to lay a foundation for homotopy probability theory by establishing its basic principles and practices. The notion of a homotopy probability space is an enrichment of the…
This is a collection of articles, written as sections, on arithmetic properties of differential equations, holomorphic foliations, Gauss-Manin connections and Hodge loci. Each section is independent from the others and it has its own…
Graded Artinian algebras can be regarded as algebraic analogues of cohomology rings (in even degrees) of compact topological manifolds. In this analogy, a free extension of a base ring with a fiber ring corresponds to a fiber bundle over a…
In this expository paper we give an elementary, hands-on computation of the homology of the little disks operad, showing that the homology of a $d-fold loop space is a Poisson algebra. One aim is to familiarize a greater audience with…
In this article, we introduce a new cohomology theory associated to a Lie 2-algebras. This cohomology theory is shown to extend the classical cohomology theory of Lie algebras; in particular, we show that the second cohomology group…
Let $G$ be a group acting continuously on a space $X$ and let $X/G$ be its orbit space. Determining the topological or cohomological type of the orbit space $X/G$ is a classical problem in the theory of transformation groups. In this paper,…
In this paper, we introduce and study representation homology of topological spaces, which is a natural homological extension of representation varieties of fundamental groups. We give an elementary construction of representation homology…
In this paper, we develop a cohomology theory of a left-symmetric conformal algebra and study its some applications. We define the cohomology of a left-symmetric conformal algebra, and then give an isomorphism between the cohomology spaces…
We describe the main algebraic and geometric properties of the class of algebras introduced in [arXiv:0705.1629]. We discuss their origins in symplectic geometry and associative algebra, and the notions of cohomology and representations. We…
Let G be a group which is topologically a CW-complex, BG a classifying space for G, and A a discrete abelian group. To a central extension of G by A, one can associate a cohomology class in $H^2(BG,A)$. We show this association is…
We discuss and develop some connections between analysis on singular spaces and operator algebras, as presented in my sequence of four lectures at the conference "Noncommutative geometry and applications," Frascati, Italy, June 16-21, 2014.…
Given a perversity function in the sense of intersection homology theory, the method of intersection spaces assigns to certain oriented stratified spaces cell complexes whose ordinary reduced homology with real coefficients satisfies…
We propose an explicit relation between the cohomology of compactified and noncompactified moduli spaces of algebraic curves with punctures. This relationship generalizes one between commutative algebras and Lie algebras proposed by Lazard,…
