Coherent unit actions on a binary, quadratic operad were introduced by Loday and were shown by him to give Hopf algebra structures on the free algebras when the operad is also regular with a splitting of associativity. Working with such…

The (local) invariant symplectic action functional $\A$ is associated to a Hamiltonian action of a compact connected Lie group $\G$ on a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$, endowed with a $\G$-invariant Riemannian metric $<\cdot,\cdot>_M$. It…

Let $A$ be a $1$-algebra. The Kontsevich Swiss Cheese conjecture [K2] states that the homotopy category $\mathrm{Ho}(\mathrm{Act}(A))$ of actions of $2$-algebras on $A$ has a final object and that this object is weakly equivalent to the…

We investigate conformal actions of cocompact lattices in higher-rank simple Lie groups on compact pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. Our main result gives a general bound on the real-rank of the lattice, which was already known for the action of…

In this paper the relative recognition principle will be proved. It states that a pair of spaces $(X_o,X_c)$ is weakly equivalent to $(\Omega^N_\text{rel}(\iota:B\hookrightarrow Y),\Omega^N(Y))$ if and only if $(X_o,X_c)$ are grouplike…

The question of whether a given H-space X is, up to homotopy, a loop space has been studied from a variety of viewpoints. Here we address this question from the aspect of homotopy operations, in the classical sense of operations on homotopy…

Counterterm actions are constructed along the ADM formalism. It is shown that the counterterm action can be intrinsically written in terms of intrinsic boundary geometry. Using the expression of counterterm action, we obtain a general form…

We give some simple conditions under which a group acting on a bifoliated plane comes from the induced action of a pseudo-Anosov flow on its orbit space. An application of the strategy is a less technical proof of a result of Barbot that…

From the partition function for two classes of classically non-local actions containing the fractional Laplacian, we show that as long as there exists a suitable (non-local) Hilbert-space transform the underlying action can be mapped onto a…

Hurwitz spaces are homotopy quotients of the braid group action on the moduli space of principal bundles over a punctured plane. By considering a certain model for this homotopy quotient we build an aspherical topological operad that we…

We introduce a natural pseudometric on the space of actions of d-generated groups. In this pseudometric, the zero classes correspond to the weak equivalence classes defined by Kechris, and the metric identification is compact. We achieve…

The main result of this paper is the conformal flatness of real-analytic compact Lorentz manifolds of dimension at least $3$ admitting a conformal essential (i.e. conformal, but not isometric) action of a Lie group locally isomorphic to…

In this note we introduce an action of cyclohedra on the free loop space. We will then discuss how this action can be used for an appropriate recognition principle in the same manner as the action of Stasheff's associahedra can be used to…

We present a modified version of the boundary counterterm method for removing divergences from the action of an asymptotically $AdS$ spacetime. The standard approach renders the action finite but leaves diffeomorphism invariance partially…

We define a reduced $\infty$-operad $\mathcal{P}$ to be $d$-connected if the spaces $\mathcal{P}\left(n\right)$, of $n$-ary operations, are $d$-connected for all $n\ge0$. Let $\mathcal{P}$ and $\mathcal{Q}$ be two reduced $\infty$-operads.…

We formulate the stringy nonrelativistic limits of the flat space and AdS$_5\times$S$^5$ string as coset models, based on the string Bargmann and extended string Newton-Hooke algebras respectively. Our construction mimics the typical…

We prove that many spaces of positive scalar curvature metrics have the homotopy type of infinite loop spaces. Our result in particular applies to the path component of the round metric inside $\mathcal{R}^+ (S^d)$ if $d \geq 6$. To achieve…

We construct a configuration space model for a particular 2-colored differential graded operad encoding the structure of two $A_\infty$ algebras with two $A_\infty$ morphisms and a homotopy between the morphisms. The cohomology of this…

From the `cofree' cooperad $T'(A[-1])$ on a collection $A$ together with a differential, we construct an $L_\infty$-algebra structure on the total space $\bigoplus_nA(n)$ that descends to coinvariants. We use this construction to define an…

We show how the $A_\infty$ class of weights can be considered as a metric space. As far as we know this is the first time that a metric d is considered on this set. We use this metric to generalize the results obtained in [9]. Namely, we…
