Analogues of JSJ decompositions were developed for Poincar\'e duality pairs in [19]. These decompositions depend only on the group. Our focus will be on describing the edge splittings of these decompositions more precisely. We use our…
We state a number of open questions on 3-dimensional Poincar\'e duality groups and their subgroups, motivated by considerations from 3-manifold topology.
We prove the analogue of Johannson's Deformation Theorem for PD3 pairs.
We describe a new approach to the canonical decompositions of 3-manifolds along tori and annuli due to Jaco-Shalen and Johannson (with ideas from Waldhausen) - the so-called JSJ-decomposition theorem. This approach gives an accessible proof…
It is well known that the cup-product pairing on the complementary integral cohomology groups (modulo torsion) of a compact oriented manifold is unimodular. We prove a similar result for the $\ell$-adic cohomology groups of smooth algebraic…
In this paper we define and develop the theory of the cohomology of a profinite group relative to a collection of closed subgroups. Having made the relevant definitions we establish a robust theory of cup products and use this theory to…
We find canonical decompositions for finitely presented groups which specialize to the classical JSJ-decomposition when restricted to the fundamental groups of Haken manifolds. The decompositions that we obtain are invariant under…
Many invariants of finitely generated positive cancelative commutative semigroups can be studied from their Poincar\'e series. We offer and present several closed formulas for them. Moreover, those formulas have elementary proofs and are…
We walk out the landscape of K-theoretic Poincare Duality for finite algebras. It paves the way to get continuum Dirac operators from discrete noncommutative manifolds.
We study the combinatorics of an analogue of Green's $\mathcal{J}$-relation (a.k.a. the two-sided relation) for the bicategory of finite-dimensional bimodules over finite-dimensional associative algebras over a fixed field. In particular,…
In this paper we assign, under reasonable hypothesis, to each pseudomanifold with isolated singularities a rational Poincar\'e duality space. These spaces are constructed with the formalism of intersections spaces defined by Markus Banagl…
The full duality between the $\kappa$-Poincar\'e algebra and $\kappa$-Poincar\'e group is proved.
We explore the constraints imposed by Poincar\'e duality on the resonance varieties of a graded algebra. For a 3-dimensional Poincar\'e duality algebra $A$, we obtain a fairly precise geometric description of the resonance varieties…
We classify pro-$p$ Poincar\'e duality pairs in dimension two. We then use this classification to build a pro-$p$ analogue of the curve complex and establish its basic properties. We conclude with some statements concerning separability…
In this paper we extend previous results concerning the behaviour of JSJ decompositions of closed 3-manifolds with respect to the profinite completion to the case of compact 3-manifolds with boundary. We also illustrate an alternative and…
A new quantum gauge model is proposed. From this quantum gauge model we derive a quantum invariant of 3-manifolds. We show that this quantum invariant of 3-manifolds gives a classification of closed (orientable and connected) 3-manifolds.…
In a earlier work of Claire Debord and the author, a notion of noncommutative tangent space isdefined for a conical pseudomanifold and the Poincar\'e duality in $K$-theory is proved between this space and the pseudomanifold. The present…
In this paper we address the relation between the orbifold fundamental group and the topology of the underlying space. In particular, under the assumption that the orbifold fundamental group is equal to the fundamental group of the…
In this paper we generalize previous work on decomposition in three-dimensional orbifolds by 2-groups realized as analogues of central extensions, to orbifolds by more general 2-groups. We describe the computation of such orbifolds in…
We study Poincar\'e Duality in the context of abstract 6-functor formalisms. In particular, we give a small and simple list of assumptions that implies Poincar\'e Duality. As an application, we give new uniform (and essentially formal)…
