We define a symmetric monoidal structure on the parametrised stable homotopy category over a base space with an action of an $E_\infty$ operad. We discuss products, orientations and push-forwards in parametrised cohomology theories…

Symmetry groups or groupoids of C*-algebras associated to non-Hausdorff spaces are often non-Hausdorff as well. We describe such symmetries using crossed modules of groupoids. We define actions of crossed modules on C*-algebras and crossed…

We investigate the existence of homotopy comoment maps (comoments) for high-dimensional spheres seen as multisymplectic manifolds. Especially, we solve the existence problem for compact effective group actions on spheres and provide…

We address the homotopy theory of 2-crossed modules of commutative algebras, which are equivalent to simplicial commutative algebras with Moore complex of length two. In particular, we construct for maps of 2-crossed modules a homotopy…

We introduce the secondary Stiefel-Whitney class $\tilde w_2$ of homotopically trivial diffeomorphisms and show that a homotopically trivial symplectomorphism of a ruled 4-manifold is isotopic to identity if and only if the class $\tilde…

Implementing an idea due to John Baez and James Dolan we define new invariants of Whitney stratified manifolds by considering the homotopy theory of smooth transversal maps. To each Whitney stratified manifold we assign transversal homotopy…

An isometric action of a Lie group on a Riemannian manifold is of cohomogeneity one if the corresponding orbit space is one-dimensional. In this article we develop a conceptual approach to the classification of cohomogeneity one actions on…

We explicitly show that symmetric Frobenius structures on a finite-dimensional, semi-simple algebra stand in bijection to homotopy fixed points of the trivial SO(2)-action on the bicategory of finite-dimensional, semi-simple algebras,…

We study an invariant, the secondary trace, attached to two commuting endomorphisms of a 2-dualizable object in a symmetric monoidal higher category. We establish a secondary trace formula which encodes the natural symmetries of this…

We provide a detailed study of actions of the integers on compact quantum metric spaces, which includes general criteria ensuring that the associated crossed product algebra is again a compact quantum metric space in a natural way. We…

We construct a crossed homomorphism by using a group action on the circle and the Poincar\'{e} translation number. We relate it to the Euler class of the action in terms of the Hochschild--Serre spectral sequence. As an application, we…

We develop a unified framework based on topological crossed modules for various lifting obstructions for $\Gamma$-kernels. It allows us to identify actions, cocycle actions and $\Gamma$-kernels up to their natural equivalence relations with…

We explicitly compute the 2-group of self-equivalences and (homotopy classes of) chain homotopies between them for any {\it split} chain complex $A_{\bullet}$ in an arbitrary $\kb$-linear abelian category ($\kb$ any commutative ring with…

We study group action on bimodules and bimodule categories and prove for them analogues of the results known for representations of skew group algebras, mainly in the case, when the action is separable.

We establish new results and introduce new methods in the theory of measurable orbit equivalence, using bounded cohomology of group representations. Our rigidity statements hold for a wide (uncountable) class of groups arising from negative…

Let G be a simple Lie group of real rank one, and S the ideal boundary of the corresponding symmetric space of noncompact type (H^n_R, H^n_C, H^n_H or H^2_O). We show the finiteness of the possible values of the secondary characteristic…
