In this paper we completely classify which graded polynomial R-algebras in finitely many even degree variables can occur as the singular cohomology of a space with coefficients in R, a 1960 question of N. E. Steenrod, for a commutative ring…

We consider a theory of noncommutative Gr\"obner bases on decreasingly filtered algebras whose associated graded algebras are commutative. We transfer many algorithms that use commutative Gr\"obner bases to this context. As an important…

Let $N \subset M$ be a submanifold embedding of spin manifolds of some codimension $k \geq 1$. A classical result of Gromov and Lawson, refined by Hanke, Pape and Schick, states that $M$ does not admit a metric of positive scalar curvature…

We study the problem of determining a minimal set of generators for the polynomial algebra $\mathbb F_2[x_1,x_2,...,x_k]$ as a module over the mod-2 Steenrod algebra $\mathcal{A}$. In this paper, we give an explicit answer in terms of the…

In this article we construct Symmetric operations for all primes (previously known only for p=2). These unstable operations are more subtle than the Landweber-Novikov operations, and encode all p-primary divisibilities of characteristic…

G. Walker and R. Wood proved that in degree $2^n-1-n$, the space of indecomposable elements of $\Bbb F_2[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$, considered as a module over the mod 2 Steenrod algebra, is isomorphic to the Steinberg representation of $GL_n(\Bbb…

We describe the action of the mod $2$ Steenrod algebra on the cohomology of various polyhedral products and related spaces. We carry this out for Davis-Januszkiewicz spaces and their generalizations, for moment-angle complexes as well as…

Let the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$ act on the polynomial ring $\mathbb{Q}[\mathbf{x}_n] = \mathbb{Q}[x_1, \dots, x_n]$ by variable permutation. The coinvariant algebra is the graded $\mathfrak{S}_n$-module $R_n :=…

A finite generalized quadrangle $\cS$ is a Singer quadrangle if it has an automorphism group that acts sharply transitively on its points. In this paper, we introduce the notion of multipliers for a Singer quadrangle and study their basic…

Working over a field $k$ of characteristic zero, we study the ring $\mathfrak{R}=\mathfrak{D}^{\mathbb{Z}_2}$ where $\mathfrak{D}=k[x_0,x_1,x_2]/(2x_0x_2-x_1^2-1)$ and $\mathbb{Z}_2$ acts by $x_i\to -x_i$. $\mathfrak{D}$ admits an algebraic…

In this paper we introduce an algebra embedding $\iota:K< X >\to S$ from the free associative algebra $K< X >$ generated by a finite or countable set $X$ into the skew monoid ring $S = P * \Sigma$ defined by the commutative polynomial ring…

Based on a relative Wu theorem in \'etale cohomology, we study the compatibility of Steenrod operations on Chow groups and on \'etale cohomology. Using the resulting obstructions to algebraicity, we construct new examples of non-algebraic…

In 1999, Reg Wood conjectured that the quotient of Q[x_1,...,x_n] by the action of the rational Steenrod algebra is a graded regular representation of the symmetric group S_n. As pointed out by Reg Wood, the analog of this statement is a…

Let $x_1, x_2,\ldots$ be a system of homogeneous polynomial generators for the Lazard ring $\mathbb{L}^*=MU^{2*}$ and let $MGL_S$ denote Voevodsky's algebraic cobordism spectrum in the motivic stable homotopy category over a base-scheme…

This note explores the interaction between cohomology operations in a generalized cohomology theory and a string topology loop coproduct dual to the Chas--Sullivan loop product. More precisely, we ask for a description for the failure of a…

We consider a two-fold problem: on the one hand, the classification of a family of solution-generating techniques in (modified) supergravity and, on the other hand, the classification of a family of canonical transformations of…

We discuss transfer-function realization for multivariable holomorphic functions mapping the unit polydisk or the right polyhalfplane into the operator analogue of either the unit disk or the right halfplane (Schur/Herglotz functions over…

A half a century ago, George Bergman introduced stunning machinery which would realise any commutative conical monoid as the non-stable $K$-theory of a ring. The ring constructed is ``minimal" or ``universal". Given the success of graded…

We use the Steenrod algebra to study $CH^*BG$, the mod $p$ Chow ring of the classifying space of $G$. We describe a localization property which relates a given $G$ to its elementary abelian subgroups, and we study a number of particular…

Let $G$ be a finite group, $H \le G$ a subgroup, $R$ a commutative ring, $A$ an $R$-algebra, and $\alpha$ an action of $G$ on $A$ by $R$-algebra automorphisms. We study the associated \emph{skew Hecke algebra}…
