We investigate a special kind of contraction of symmetric spaces (respectively, of Lie triple systems), called homotopy. In this first part of a series of two papers we construct such contractions for classical symmetric spaces in an…

A cohomological study is made of an equivariant map betwen the configuration space of n points in space and the flag manifold of U(n).

By studying an effective action description of the coupling of charged gauge fields in N=2 SU(n) supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories, we can describe regions of moduli space where one or more of these fields becomes unphysical. We discuss…

We compute the homology of the spaces in the Omega spectrum for $BoP$. There is no torsion in $H_*(\underline{BoP}_{\; i})$ for $i \ge 2$, and things are only slightly more complicated for $i < 2$. We find the complete homotopy type of…

Using geometric arguments, we compute the group of homotopy classes of maps from a closed $(n+1)$-dimensional manifold to the $n$-sphere for $n \geq 3$. Our work extends results from Kirby, Melvin and Teichner for closed oriented…

We show that given two sequences of core-compact spaces \[ X_0 \hookrightarrow \dots \hookrightarrow X_n \hookrightarrow \dots \quad \text{and} \quad Y_0 \hookrightarrow \dots \hookrightarrow Y_n \hookrightarrow \dots \] with continuous…

We answer a weaker version of the classification problem for the homotopy types of $(n-2)$-connected closed orientable $(2n-1)$-manifolds. Let $n\geq 6$ be an even integer, and $X$ be a $(n-2)$-connected finite orientable Poincar\'e…

Let $PU_n$ denote the projective unitary group of rank $n$ and $BPU_n$ be its classifying space, for $n>1$. Using the Serre spectral sequence associated to the fibration $BU_n\to BPU_n\to K(\mathbb{Z},3)$, we compute the integral cohomology…

We calculate the annihilator of the ku-toral class for the p-groups Z_{p^2} X Z_{p^k}$ with k > 2. This allows us to give a description of the ku-homology of these groups.

We compute the Poisson cohomology of the one-parameter family of SU(2)-covariant Poisson structures on the homogeneous space S^{2}=CP^{1}=SU(2)/U(1), where SU(2) is endowed with its standard Poisson--Lie group structure,thus extending the…

Shulman's spatial type theory internalizes the modalities of Lawvere's axiomatic cohesion in a homotopy type theory, enabling many of the constructions from Schreiber's modal approach to differential cohomology to be carried out…

We compute the mod 2 homology of spin mapping class groups in the stable range. In earlier work we computed the stable mod p homology of the oriented mapping class group, and the methods and results here are very similar. The forgetful map…

We write the SU(2) lattice gauge theory Hamiltonian in (d+1) dimensions in terms of prepotentials which are the SU(2) fundamental doublets of harmonic oscillators. The Hamiltonian in terms of prepotentials has $SU(2) \otimes U(1)$ local…

We calculate the rational cohomology of the classifying space of the diffeomorphism group of the manifolds $U_{g,1}^n:= \#^g(S^n \times S^{n+1})\setminus \mathrm{int}{D^{2n+1}}$, for large $g$ and $n$, up to approximately degree $n$. The…

We compute the integral homology and cohomology groups of configuration spaces of two distinct points on a given real projective space. The explicit answer is related to the (known multiplicative structure in the) integral cohomology---with…

We construct all vacuum states of $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills quantum mechanics (for SU(N) group) and discuss their origin from the SU(N) real cohomology.

Assume that all spaces and maps are localised at a fixed prime $p$. We study the possibility of generating a universal space $U(X)$ from a space $X$ which is universal in the category of homotopy associative, homotopy commutative H-spaces…

Motivated by Ball, Li, Timotin and Trent's Schur-Agler class version of commutant lifting theorem, we introduce a class, denoted by $\mathcal{P}_n(\mathcal{H})$, of $n$-tuples of commuting contractions on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. We…

In this paper, we show that for finite $CW$-complexes $X$ and two-stage space $Y$ (for example $n$-spheres $S^n$, homogeneous spaces and $F_0$-spaces), the rational homotopy type of $\map(X, Y)$ is determined by the cohomology algebra…

To every homotopy n-nilpotent group, defined in earlier work by Dwyer and the author, we associate an endofunctor of pointed spaces and prove that it is looped and n-excisive. As a tool we prove that $\Omega P_n({\rm id})$ commutes with…
