Bousfield and Kan's $\mathbb{Q}$-completion and fiberwise $\mathbb{Q}$-completion of spaces lead to two different approaches to the rational homotopy theory of non-simply connected spaces. In the first approach, a map is a weak equivalence…

In this paper, we deal with stable homology computations with twisted coefficients for mapping class groups of surfaces and of 3-manifolds, automorphism groups of free groups with boundaries and automorphism groups of certain right-angled…

In a previous paper, we showed that a discrete version of the $S_\bullet$-construction gives an equivalence of categories between unital 2-Segal sets and augmented stable double categories. Here, we generalize this result to the homotopical…

A well-known property of unordered configuration spaces of points (in an open, connected manifold) is that their homology stabilises as the number of points increases. We generalise this result to moduli spaces of submanifolds of higher…

Stable topological invariants are a cornerstone of persistence theory and applied topology, but their discriminative properties are often poorly-understood. In this paper we study a rich homology-based invariant first defined by Dey, Shi,…

We construct and study a functorial extension of the evaluation map $S^1 \times \mathcal{L} X \to X$ to transfers along finite covers. For finite covers of classifying spaces of finite groups, we provide algebraic formulas for this…

The Alexandroff-\v{C}ech normal cohomology theory [Mor$_1$], [Bar], [Ba$_1$],[Ba$_2$] is the unique continuous extension \cite{Wat} of the additive cohomology theory [Mil], [Ber-Mdz$_1$] from the category of polyhedral pairs…

An augmented metric space is a metric space $(X, d_X)$ equipped with a function $f_X: X \to \mathbb{R}$. This type of data arises commonly in practice, e.g, a point cloud $X$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ where each point $x\in X$ has a density…

The work is motivated by the papers [Ba1], [Ba2], [Ba7], [Ba11], [Be] and [Be-Tu]. In particular, the strong homology groups of continuous maps were defined and studied in [Be] and [Be-Tu]. To show that given groups are homology type…

In 1994, Long and Moody gave a construction on representations of braid groups which associates a representation of \mathbf{B}\_{n} with a representation of \mathbf{B}\_{n+1}. In this paper, we prove that this construction is functorial and…

We show the minimal total Betti number of a closed almost complex manifold of dimension $2n\ge 8$ is four, thus confirming a conjecture of Sullivan except for dimension $6$. Along the way, we prove the only simply connected closed complex…

We propose sparse versions of filtered simplicial complexes used to compte persistent homology of point clouds and of networks. In particular we extend a slight variation of the Sparse \v{C}ech Complex of Cavanna, Jahanseir and Sheehy from…

Given a polynomial function with an isolated zero at the origin, we prove that the local A1-Brouwer degree equals the Eisenbud-Khimshiashvili-Levine class. This answers a question posed by David Eisenbud in 1978. We give an application to…

We show how the classical notions of cohomology with local coefficients, CW-complex, covering space, homeomorphism equivalence, simple homotopy equivalence, tubular neighbourhood, and spinning can be encoded on a computer and used to…

In this paper, we study some properties of homotopical closeness for paths. We define the quasi-small loop group as the subgroup of all classes of loops that are homotopically close to null-homotopic loops, denoted by $\pi_1^{qs} (X, x)$…

When a category $\mathcal{C}$ satisfies certain conditions, we define the notion of rank invariant for arbitrary poset-indexed functors $F:\mathbf{P} \rightarrow \mathcal{C}$ from a category theory perspective. This generalizes the standard…

We construct by adapting methods and results of Ando, Hopkins, Rezkand Wilson combined with results of Hopkins and Lawson strictly commu-tative complex orientations for the spectra of topological modular forms with level $\Gamma_1(N)$.

Given a space $X$, the topological complexity of $X$, denoted by $TC(X)$, can be viewed as the minimum number of "continuous rules" needed to describe how to move between any two points in $X$. Given subspaces $Y_1$ and $Y_2$ of $X$, there…

We introduce the digital projective product spaces based on Davis' projective product spaces. We determine an upper bound for the digital LS-category of the digital projective product spaces. In addition, we obtain an upper bound for the…

In ~\cite{Iw2} Iwase has constructed two 16-dimensional manifolds $M_2$ and $M_3$ with LS-category 3 which are counter-examples to Ganea's conjecture: ${\rm cat_{LS}} (M\times S^n)={\rm cat_{LS}} M+1$. We show that the manifold $M_3$ is a…
