It is important to classify covering subgroups of the fundamental group of a topological space using their topological properties in the topologized fundamental group. In this paper, we introduce and study some topologies on the fundamental…

We compute the cohomology of the quotient algebra $\mathcal{A}(2)$ of the $\mathbb{R}$-motivic dual Steenrod algebra. We do so by running a $\rho$-Bockstein spectral sequence whose input is the cohomology of $\mathbb{C}$-motivic…

We construct the explicit formula for the (2n+1)-cocycle of the Lie algebra of (pseudo)differential operators on a n-dimensional space. We prove that this formula in fact defines a cocycle for n=1 and n=2.

Noncommutative phase spaces are generated and classified in the framework of centrally extended anisotropic planar kinematical Lie groups as well as in the framework of noncentrally extended planar absolute time Lie groups. Through these…

We establish vanishing results for the first cohomology group of nilpotent groups and Lie rings when the submodule of invariants is trivial. Our results are obtained within a model-theoretic setting, namely for structures that are definable…

We obtain formulas for the first and second cohomology groups of a general current Lie algebra with coefficients in the "current" module, and apply them to compute structure functions for manifolds of loops with values in compact Hermitian…

Given a commutative ring $A$, a "formal $A$-module" is a formal group equipped with an action of $A$. There exists a classifying ring $L^A$ of formal $A$-modules. This paper proves structural results about $L^A$ and about the moduli stack…

In this paper, we calculate cohomology of a classical Lie algebra of type $A_2$ over an algebraically field $k$ of characteristic $p=3$ with coefficients in simple modules. To describe their structure, we will consider them as modules over…

We compute the second (and the first) cohomology groups of $^*$-algebras associated to the universal quantum unitary groups of not neccesarily Kac type, extending our earlier results for the free unitary group $U_d^+$. The extended setup…

Let $S_n$ denote the symmetric group of permutations acting on $n$ elements. We investigate the double sequence $\{N_{\ell}(n)\}$ counting the number of $\ell$ tuples of elements of the symmetric group $S_n$, where the components commute,…

We entirely compute the cohomology for a natural and large class of $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$ modules $M$. We study the restriction to the $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$ cohomology of $M$ and apply our results to the module $M={\mathfrak D}_{\lambda,\mu}$…

There exist spaces BSol(q) which are the classifying spaces of a family of 2-local finite groups based on certain fusion system over the Sylow 2-subgroups of Spin_7(q). In this paper we calculate the cohomology of BSol(q) as an algebra over…

Let GO(2n) be the general orthogonal group (the group of similitudes) over any algebraically closed field of characteristic not equal to 2. We determine the etale cohomology ring with mod 2 coefficients of the algebraic stack BGO(2n). In…

We calculate certain homotopy groups of the moduli spaces for representations of a compact oriented surface in the Lie groups GL(n,C) and U(p,q). Our approach relies on the interpretation of these representations in terms of Higgs bundles…

We show that the leaves of an LA-groupoid which pass through the unit manifold are, modulo a connectedness issue, Lie groupoids. We illustrate this phenomenon by considering the cotangent Lie algebroids of Poisson groupoids thus obtaining…

We study the ring of differential operators D(X) on the basic affine space X=G/U of a complex semisimple group G with maximal unipotent subgroup U. One of the main results shows that the cohomology group H^*(X,O_X) decomposes as a finite…

In this paper, all (super)algebras are over a field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic different from $2, 3$. We construct the so-called 5-sequences of cohomology for central extensions of a Lie superalgebra and prove that they are exact. Then…

We show that the class of connected, simple Lie groups that have non-vanishing third-degree continuous cohomology with trivial $\mathbb{R}$-coefficients consists precisely of all simple complex Lie groups and of…

The moduli space for a flat G-bundle over the two-torus is completely determined by its holonomy representation. When G is compact, connected, and simply connected, we show that the moduli space is homeomorphic to a product of two tori mod…

We survey decades of research identifying the (co)homology of configuration spaces with Lie algebra (co)homology. The different routes to this one proto-theorem offer genuinely different explanations of its truth, and we attempt to convey…
