Given integers $a_1,a_2,a_3$, there is a complex rank $3$ topological bundle on $\mathbb CP^5$ with $i$-th Chern class equal to $a_i$ if and only if $a_1,a_2,a_3$ satisfy the Schwarzenberger condition. Provided that the Schwarzenberger…
Morita showed that for each power of the Euler class, there are examples of flat $\mathbb{S}^1$-bundles for which the power of the Euler class does not vanish. Haefliger asked if the same holds for flat odd-dimensional sphere bundles. In…
In this paper, extending the recent work of authors with Calles Loperena and Dimitrijevi\'c Blagojevi\'c, we give a general and complete treatment of a problem of partition of mass assignments with prescribed arrangements of hyperplanes on…
Given a finite CW complex $K$, we use a version of the Goodwillie-Weiss tower to formulate an obstruction theory for embedding $K$ into a Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$. For $2$-dimensional complexes in $\mathbb{R}^4$, a geometric analogue…
In this paper we adapt the notion of the nucleus defined by Benson, Carlson, and Robinson to compact Lie groups in non-modular characteristic. We show that it describes the singularities of the projective scheme of the cohomology of its…
In the present work, we realize the space of 2-string links $\mathcal{L}$ as a free algebra over a colored operad denoted $\mathcal{SCL}$ (for "Swiss-Cheese for links"). This result extends works of Burke and Koytcheff about the quotient of…
In this paper, we demonstrate the non-existence of a computational algorithm capable of determining whether the second homotopy group of any compact constructive topological space is trivial. This finding shows the inherent limitations of…
In equivariant algebra, Mackey functors replace abelian groups and incomplete Tambara functors replace commutative rings. In this context, we prove that equivariant Hochschild homology can sometimes be computed using Mackey functor-valued…
For a digraph $G$ without multisquares and a field $\mathbb{F}$, we construct a basis of the vector space of path $n$-chains $\Omega_n(G;\mathbb{F})$ for $n\geq 0$, generalising the basis of $\Omega_3(G;\mathbb{F})$ constructed by…
In the present paper, we construct a $\mathbb{Z}/p$-equivariant analog of the $\mathbb{Z}/2$-equivariant spectrum $BP\mathbb{R}$ previously constructed by Hu and Kriz. We prove that this spectrum has some of the properties conjectured by…
Given a reduced crystallographic root system with a fixed simple system, it is associated to a Weyl group $W$, parabolic subgroups $W_K$'s and a polytope $P$ which is the convex hull of a dominant weight. The quotient $P/W_K$ can be…
In this paper, we construct groupoid coloured operads governing props and wheeled props, and show they are Koszul. This is accomplished by new biased definitions for (wheeled) props, and an extension of the theory of Groebner bases for…
We introduce a generalization of the notion of operad that we call a contractad, whose set of operations is indexed by connected graphs and whose composition rules are numbered by contractions of connected subgraphs. We show that many…
B\'ezout's theorem, nonequivariantly, can be interpreted as a calculation of the Euler class of a sum of line bundles over complex projective space, expressing it in terms of the rank of the bundle and its degree. We give here a…
The inclusion of 1-categories into $(\infty,1)$-categories fails to preserve colimits in general, and pushouts in particular. In this note, we observe that if one functor in a span of categories belongs to a certain previously-identified…
We compute the $v_1$-periodic $\mathbb{R}$-motivic stable homotopy groups. The main tool is the effective slice spectral sequence. Along the way, we also analyze $\mathbb{C}$-motivic and $\eta$-periodic $v_1$-periodic homotopy from the same…
We identify the group of framed diffeomorphisms of the torus as a semi-direct product of the torus with the braid group on 3 strands; we also identify the topological monoid of framed local-diffeomorphisms of the torus in similar terms. It…
We study the infinite generation in the homotopy groups of the group of diffeomorphisms of $S^1 \times D^{2n-1}$, for $2n \geq 6$, in a range of degrees up to $n-2$. Our analysis relies on understanding the homotopy fibre of a linearisation…
We define a new family of graph invariants, studying the topology of the moduli space of their geometric realizations in Euclidean spaces, using a limiting procedure reminiscent of Floer homology. Given a labeled graph $G$ on $n$ vertices…
A $(G,n)$-complex is an $n$-dimensional CW-complex with fundamental group $G$ and whose universal cover is $(n-1)$-connected. If $G$ has periodic cohomology then, for appropriate $n$, we show that there is a one-to-one correspondence…
