A Kuenneth theorem for configuration spaces

Algebraic Topology 2022-03-09 v2

Abstract

We construct a spectral sequence converging to the homology of the ordered configuration spaces of a product of parallelizable manifolds. To identify the second page of this spectral sequence, we introduce a version of the Boardman--Vogt tensor product for linear operadic modules, a purely algebraic operation. Using the rational formality of the little cubes operads, we show that our spectral sequence collapses in characteristic zero.
