We introduce the homotopy surface category of a space which generalizes the 1+1-dimensional cobordism category of circles and surfaces to the situation where one introduces a background space. We explain how for a simply connected…
We give a specific cylinder functor for semifree dg categories. This allows us to construct a homotopy colimit functor explicitly. These two functors are "computable", specifically, the constructed cylinder functor sends a dg category of…
We study the holomorphic/meromorphic function theory and the fundamental group of Euclidean open neighborhoods of compact subvarieties in homogeneous spaces; building on results of Hironaka, Hartshorne, Napier and Ramachandran in the ample…
We show that the free construction from multicategories to permutative categories is a categorically-enriched non-symmetric multifunctor. Our main result then shows that the induced functor between categories of algebras is an equivalence…
In a previous work, by extending the classical Quillen construction to the non-simply connected case, we have built a pair of adjoint functors, 'model' and 'realization', between the categories of simplicial sets and complete differential…
Let G be a connected reductive group. To any irreducible G-variety one assigns the lattice generated by all weights of B-semiinvariant rational functions on X, where B$ is a Borel subgroup of G. This lattice is called the weight lattice of…
Let $S$ be a complete flat surface, such as the Euclidean plane. We determine the homeomorphism class of the space of all curves on $S$ which start and end at given points in given directions and whose curvatures are constrained to lie in a…
In this work we give a method for computing sections of homogeneous vector bundles on any rational homogeneous variety G/P of type ADE. Our main tool is the equivalence of categories between homogeneous vector bundles on G/P and finite…
Using the functor of Baumslag rationalization of groups we construct a functor on the category of all (non necessarily simply connected) spaces that extends the classical rationalization of simply connected spaces. We study this functor and…
Let $X$ be a compact, Hausdorff topological space. Then $H^M_n(X)=0$ for all $n>0$, where $H_n$ is the multivalued analogue of singular homology. The case $n=1$ is already known [8].
Every smooth manifold contains particles which propagate. These form objects and morphisms of a category equipped with a functor to the category of Abelian groups, turning this into a 0+1 topological field theory. We investigate the…
We classify the $Q$-homogeneous skew Schur $Q$-functions, i.e., those of the form $Q_{\lambda/\mu} = k \cdot Q_{\nu}$. On the way we develop new tools that are useful also in the context of other classification problems for skew Schur…
We give a definition of a functor compactifying the functor of bundles on a surfaces. Earlier different authors have defined similar spaces as either images under a morphism or a quotient by an equivalence relation. We use the technique of…
Given a topological group G, its orbit category Orb_G has the transitive G-spaces G/H as objects and the G-equivariant maps between them as morphisms. A well known theorem of Elmendorf then states that the category of G-spaces and the…
We develop a homotopical framework for small categories that extends classical invarints of algebraic topology to the categorical setting. Our approach is based on the construction of genuine path category, obtained trough a localization…
We define Weil spaces, Weil manifolds, Weil varieties and Weil Lie groups over an arbitrary commutative base ring K (in particular, over discrete rings such as the integers), and we develop the basic theory of such spaces, leading up the…
Recent work of Biedermann and R\"ondigs has translated Goodwillie's calculus of functors into the language of model categories. Their work focuses on symmetric multilinear functors and the derivative appears only briefly. In this paper we…
We compute the homotopy type of the moduli space of flat, unitary connections over aspherical surfaces, after stabilizing with respect to the rank of the underlying bundle. Over the orientable surface M^g, we show that this space has the…
In this short note we show that the homotopy category of smooth compactifications of smooth algebraic varieties is equivalent to the homotopy category of smooth varieties over a field of characteristic zero. As an application we show that…
We define the thin fundamental categorical group ${\mathcal P}_2(M,*)$ of a based smooth manifold $(M,*)$ as the categorical group whose objects are rank-1 homotopy classes of based loops on $M$, and whose morphisms are rank-2 homotopy…
