We prove a homological stability theorem for certain complements of symmetric spaces. This is a variant of a conjecture by Vakil and Matchett Wood for subspaces of $\mathrm{Sym}^n(X)$ where $X$ is an open manifold admitting a boundary. To…

These expository notes are dedicated to the study of the topology of configuration spaces of manifolds. We give detailed computations of many invariants, including the fundamental group of the configuration spaces of $\mathbb{R}^2$, the…

We use a well known problem in discrete and computational geometry (partitions of measures by $k$-fans) as a motivation and as a point of departure to illustrate many aspects, both theoretical and computational, of the problem of…

We consider the moduli space of the McKay quiver representations associated to the binary polyhedral groups G < SU(2) < SU(3). The derived category of such representations is equivalent to the derived category of coherent sheaves on the…

We model equivariant infinite loop spaces indexed on incomplete universes via suitable equivariant analogs of $\Gamma$-spaces. The choice of universe dictates a transfer system which in turn dictates the Segal condition on equivariant…

In this paper we give a geometric construction of the Borel equivariant (co)homology for spaces with a $G$-action, where $G$ is a compact Lie group with the property that the adjoint representation is orientable. A nice feature of these…

In this work we obtain the general form of polynomial mappings that commute with a linear action of a relative symmetry group. The aim is to give results for relative equivariant polynomials that correspond to the results for relative…

In her PhD thesis Milin developed an equivariant version of the contact homology groups constructed by Eliashberg, Kim and Polterovich and used it to prove an equivariant contact non-squeezing theorem. In this article we re-obtain the same…

We construct a spectral sequence associated to a stratified space, which computes the compactly supported cohomology groups of an open stratum in terms of the compactly supported cohomology groups of closed strata and the reduced cohomology…

Given an $N$-dimensional compact manifold $M$ and a field $\bk$, F. Cohen and L. Taylor have constructed a spectral sequence, $\cE(M,n,\bk)$, converging to the cohomology of the space of ordered configurations of $n$ points in $M$. The…

We describe a regular cell complex model for the configuration space F(\R^d,n). Based on this, we use Equivariant Obstruction Theory to prove the prime power case of the conjecture by Nandakumar and Ramana Rao that every polygon can be…

We use sheaf theory and the six operations to define and study the (equivariant) homology of stacks. The construction makes sense in the algebraic, complex-analytic, or even topological categories.

We generalize two classical homotopy theory results, the Blakers-Massey Theorem and Quillen's Theorem B, to G-equivariant cubical diagrams of spaces, for a discrete group G. We show that the equivariant Freudenthal suspension Theorem for…

Based on results for real deformation parameter q we introduce a compact non- commutative structure covariant under the quantum group SOq(3) for q being a root of unity. To match the algebra of the q-deformed operators with necesarry…

In this paper, we provide a concrete interpretation of equivariant Reidemeister torsion and demonstrate that Bismut-Zhang's equivariant Cheeger-M\"{u}ller theorem simplifies considerably when applied to locally symmetric spaces. In a…

In this note, we generalize biharmonic equation for rotationally symmetric maps ([4], [16], [10]) to equivariant maps between model spaces and use it to give a complete classification of rotationally symmetric conformal biharmonic maps from…

In this note we prove an equivariant version of a result of Cartan for equivariant simplicial cohomology with local coefficients.

After reviewing the hole argument and its relations with initial value problem and general covariance, we shall discuss how much freedom one has to define the physical state of a system in a generally covariant (or gauge covariant) field…

We prove that the Moyal product is covariant under linear affine spacetime transformations. From the covariance law, by introducing an $(x,\Theta)$-space where the spacetime coordinates and the noncommutativity matrix components are on the…

We establish coupled fixed point theorems for contraction involving rational expressions in partially ordered metric spaces.
