We develop a general structure theory for compact homogeneous Riemannian manifolds in relation to the co-index of symmetry. We will then use these results to classify irreducible, simply connected, compact homogeneous Riemannian manifolds…
This note is a survey on the topology of hyperplane arrangements. We mainly focus on the relationship between topology and the real structure, such as adjacent relations of chambers and stratifications related to real structures.
We enumerate complex algebraic hypersurfaces in $P^n$, of a given (high) degree with one singular point of a given singularity type. Our approach is to compute the (co)homology classes of the corresponding equi-singular strata in the…
The topological complexity ${\sf TC}(X)$ is a homotopy invariant of a topological space $X$, motivated by robotics, and providing a measure of the navigational complexity of $X$. The topological complexity of a connected sum of real…
A poset-stratified space is a pair $(S, S \xrightarrow \pi P)$ of a topological space $S$ and a continuous map $\pi: S \to P$ with a poset $P$ considered as a topological space with its associated Alexandroff topology. In this paper we show…
We discuss conditions under which certain compactifications of topological spaces can be obtained by composing the ultrafilter space monad with suitable reflectors. In particular, we show that these compactifications inherit their…

We survey some recent advances in the homotopy theory of classifying spaces, and homotopical group theory. We focus on the classification of p-compact groups in terms of root data over the p-adic integers, and discuss some of its…
Let $P\subset\mathbb R^n$ be a convex polytope and let $\ell$ be a linear functional which is nonconstant on every edge of $P$. The induced acyclic orientation determines positive and negative Bia{\l}ynicki-Birula type partitions of $P$…
Consider polynomial maps $f:\C\to\C$ of degree $d\ge 2$, or more generally polynomial maps from a finite union of copies of $\C$ to itself. In the space of suitably normalized maps of this type, the hyperbolic maps form an open set called…
We compute the cohomology ring of the complement of a toric arrangement with integer coefficients and investigate its dependency from the arrangement's combinatorial data. To this end, we study a morphism of spectral sequences associated to…
Let X be a compact connected Riemann surface. Fix a positive integer r and two nonnegative integers d_p and d_z. Consider all pairs of the form (F, f), where F is a holomorphic vector bundle on X of rank r and degree d_z-d_p, and f :…

In this paper, we review a method for computing and parameterizing the set of homotopy classes of chain maps between two chain complexes. This is then applied to finding topologically meaningful maps between simplicial complexes, which in…
We classify general systems of polynomial equations with a single solution, or, equivalently, collections of lattice polytopes of minimal positive mixed volume. As a byproduct, this classification provides an algorithm to evaluate the…
We investigate the $\mathcal F$-Borel complexity of topological spaces in their different compactifcations. We provide a simple proof of the fact that a space can have arbitrarily many different complexities in different compactifications.…
