From Smyth's classification, modular compactifications of pointed smooth rational curves are indexed by combinatorial data, so-called extremal assignments. We explore their combinatorial structures and show that any extremal assignment is a…

In Part 1, we describe six projective-type model structures on the category of differential graded modules over a differential graded algebra A over a commutative ring R. When R is a field, the six collapse to three and are well-known, at…

Higher-dimensional automata, i.e., pointed labeled precubical sets, are a powerful combinatorial-topological model for concurrent systems. In this paper, we show that for every (nonempty) connected polyhedron there exists a shared-variable…

For Hamiltonian circle actions on compact, connected, four-dimensional manifolds, we give a generators and relations description for the even part of the equivariant cohomology, as an algebra over the equivariant cohomology of a point. This…

Many first-order equational theories, such as the theory of groups or boolean algebras, can be presented by a smaller set of axioms than the original one. Recent studies showed that a homological approach to equational theories gives us…
