A cohomology class u of a topological space X is atoroidal if its pullback to the torus vanishes for every map from a torus to X. Furthermore, X is atoroidally symplectic if there is an atoroidal cohomology class $u\in H^2(X;F)$ such that…

In this work, we investigate the arbitrary intersection of real Bruhat cells. Such objects have attracted interest from various authors, particularly due to their appearance in different contexts: such as in Kazhdan-Lusztig theory and in…

We continue our study of the topology of the spaces of $m$ tuples of real polynomials with common degree $d$ and without common roots of multiplicity $n$, and in particular their stability properties with respect to $d$. In an earlier paper…

Motivated by applications in chemistry, we give a homlogical definition of tunnels, or more generally cobordisms, connecting disjoint parts of a cell complex. For a filtered complex, this defines a persistence module. We give a method for…

We give an explicit description up to the third page of the Sinha homology mod 2 spectral sequence for the space of long knots in $\mathbb{R}^3$, that is conjecturally equivalent to the Vassiliev spectral sequence. The description arises…

The fundamental group of a directed graph admits a natural sequence of quotient groups called $r$-fundamental groups, and the $r$-fundamental groups can capture properties of a directed graph that the fundamental group cannot capture. The…

Semiadditivity of an $\infty$-category, i.e. the existence of biproducts, provides it with useful algebraic structure in the form of a canonical enrichment in commutative monoids. This ultimately comes from the fact that the…

Topological data analysis (TDA) is a rising branch in modern applied mathematics. It extracts topological structures as features of a given space and uses these features to analyze digital data. Persistent homology, one of the central tools…

We can view the Lipschitz constant as a height function on the space of maps between two manifolds and ask (as Gromov did nearly 30 years ago) what its ``Morse landscape'' looks like: are there high peaks, deep valleys and mountain passes?…

The edge group of a simplicial complex is a well-known, combinatorial version of the fundamental group. It is a group associated to a simplicial complex that consists of equivalence classes of edge loops and that is isomorphic to the…

In this paper, firstly, we will study the structure of the path complex $(\Omega_*(G;\Z),\partial)$ of a digraph $G$ via the $\Z$-generators of $\Omega_*(G,\Z)$ under strongly regular condition, which is called the minimal path in…

It is well known that not every finite group arises as the full automorphism group of some group. Here we show that the situation is dramatically different when considering the category of partial groups, ${{\mathcal P}art}$, as defined by…

We study the category of polynomial functors from finitely generated free groups to a stable infinity-category D. We show that this category is equivalent to the category of excisive functors from pointed animas to D, and also to truncated…

For the projective unitary group $PU_n$ with a maximal torus $T_{PU_n}$ and Weyl group $W$, we show that the integral restriction homomorphism \[\rho_{PU_n} \colon H^*(BPU_n;\mathbb{Z})\rightarrow H^*(BT_{PU_n};\mathbb{Z})^W\] to the…

In this paper we show that any $\infty$-operad is equivalent to the localization of a discrete $\Sigma$-free operad, working in the formalism of dendroidal sets. The key point is defining the root functor of a dendroidal set $X$, a functor…

How hard is it to program $n$ robots to move about a long narrow aisle while making a series of $r-2$ intermediate stops, provided only $w$ of the robots can fit across the width of the aisle? In this paper, we answer this question by…

We prove that for any reduced differential graded Lie algebra L, the classical Quillen geometrical realization $\langle L\rangle_Q$ is homotopy equivalent to the realization $\langle L\rangle= Hom_{\bf cdgl}(\mathfrak{L}_\bullet, L)$…

Every $(\infty, n)$-category can be approximated by its tower of homotopy $(m, n)$-categories. In this paper, we prove that the successive stages of this tower are classified by k-invariants, analogously to the classical Postnikov tower for…

The topological space of the stack of $G$-zips can be computed using a refinement process. We extend this refinement process to a more general framework and show that in many situations this process can be used to compute the equivalence…

The topology of periodic spaces has attracted a lot of interest in recent years in order to study and classify crystalline structures and other large homogeneous data sets, such as the distribution of galaxies in cosmology. In practice,…
