Coloured partition algebras were introduced by Bloss and exhibit a Schur-Weyl duality with certain complex reflection groups. In this paper we show that these algebras exhibit homological stability by demonstrating that their homology…
A space $X$ is said to be $C$-trivial if the total Chern class $c(\alpha)$ equals $1$ for every complex vector bundle $\alpha$ over $X$. In this note we give a complete homological classification of $C$-trivial closed smooth manifolds of…
In this work we study the homotopy theory of the category $\mathsf{RMod}_{\mathcal{P}}$ of right modules over a simplicial operad $\mathcal{P}$ via the formalism of forest spaces $\mathsf{fSpaces}$, as introduced by Heuts, Hinich and…
In the present paper, we consider an action of the circle group on a compact oriented 4-manifold. We derive the Atiyah-Hirzebruch formula for the manifold, and associate a graph in terms of data on the fixed point set. We show in the case…
We prove that the Quillen posets $\mathcal{A}_p(H)$ of $p$-extensions $H$ of simple unitary groups have non-zero homology in the largest possible dimension, with just a few exceptions. This establishes a conjecture raised by…
We give a model-independent definition of limits for diagrams valued in an $(\infty,n)$-category. We show that this definition is compatible with the existing notion of homotopy 2-limits for 2-categories, with the existing notion of…
We develop a theory of umkehr maps for twisted generalized homology theories. In this theory, interesting umkehr maps, including generalizations of important classical ones, are induced by cartesian morphisms of a certain category opfibred…
We prove that two models of (monochromatic) enriched $\infty$-operads, due to Brantner and Chu--Haugseng, are equivalent. We show this as a consequence of the equivalence of two models of monoidal $\infty$-categories of symmetric sequences…
We determine the 2-local homotopy types of G_2-gauge groups over S^4.
In previous work, we introduced Mysterious Triality, extending the Mysterious Duality of Iqbal, Neitzke, and Vafa between physics and algebraic geometry to include algebraic topology in the form of rational homotopy theory. Starting with…
We develop Weiss's manifold calculus in the setting of $\infty$-categories, where we allow the target $\infty$-category to be any $\infty$-category with small limits. We will establish the connection between polynomial functors, Kan…
We give a formula for homotopy limits and homotopy colimits of diagrams of chain complexes using the cobar and bar constructions, also known as the Bousfield--Kan formula. Along the way, we show that the Bousfield--Kan formula computes…
We show that the mod $\ell$ cohomology of any finite group of Lie type in characteristic $p$ different from $\ell$ admits the structure of a module over the mod $\ell$ cohomology of the free loop space of the classifying space $BG$ of the…
We show that the analogue of the Peterson conjecture on the action of Steenrod squares does not hold in motivic cohomology.
In this paper, we introduce an algebraic-topological invariant for commutative pm-rings, termed the spectral fundamental group, which is denoted by $\pi_{k}^{alg}(A)$. This group is defined via homotopy classes of loops within the space of…
In this paper, we study geometric points in tensor triangular geometry. In doing so, we construct a counter-example to Balmer's Nerves of Steel conjecture using free constructions in higher Zariski geometry. We then go on to introduce and…
We introduce the notion of birth and death cochains as generalized versions of birth and death simplices in persistent cohomology. We show that birth and death cochains (unlike birth and death simplices) are always unique for a given…
Given a definable function $f: S \to \mathbb{R}$ on a definable set $S$, we study sublevel sets of the form $S^f_t \coloneqq \{x \in S: f(x) \leq t\}$ for all $t \in \mathbb{R}$. Using o-minimal structures, we prove that the Euler…
We show that the classifying space of the flow category of a \emph{tame} Morse function on a smooth, closed manifold $M$ recovers the homotopy type of $M$, thereby addressing a claim in a preprint of Cohen--Jones--Segal. The tameness…
We construct a cellular sheaf from any feedforward ReLU neural network by placing one vertex for each intermediate quantity in the forward pass and encoding each computational step - affine transformation, activation, output - as a…
