The $E_2$-term of the Adams spectral sequence for $\mathbf{Y}$ may be described in terms of its cohomology $E^\ast \mathbf{Y}$, together with the action of the primary operations $E^\ast \mathbf{E}$ on it, for ring spectra such as…
The two-point function of exactly marginal operators leads to a universal contribution to the trace anomaly in even dimensions. We study aspects of this trace anomaly, emphasizing its interpretation as a sigma model, whose target space M is…
Previous work constructed a generalized truncated Brown-Peterson spectrum of chromatic height 2 at the prime 2 as an E_infinity-ring spectrum, based on the study of elliptic curves with level-3 structure. We show that the natural map…
Given an $N$-dimensional compact manifold $M$ and a field $\bk$, F. Cohen and L. Taylor have constructed a spectral sequence, $\cE(M,n,\bk)$, converging to the cohomology of the space of ordered configurations of $n$ points in $M$. The…
The 8-periodic theory that comes from the KO-theory of the mod 2 Moore space is the same as the real first Morava K-theory obtained from the homotopy fixed points of the Z/(2) action on the first Morava K-theory. The first Morava K-theory,…
We prove a spectral theorem for bimodules in the context of graph C*-algebras. A bimodule over a suitable abelian algebra is determined by its spectrum (i.e., its groupoid partial order) iff it is generated by the Cuntz-Krieger partial…
M. Mahowald, in his work on $b{\rm o}$-resolutions, constructed a $b{\rm o}$-module splitting of the spectrum $b{\rm o} \wedge b{\rm o}$ into a wedge of summands related to integral Brown-Gitler spectra. In this paper, a similar splitting…
Looijenga's vanishing theorem on the moduli space of curves $M_g$ says that the tautological ring vanishes above degree $g-2$. We prove an analogous result for the tautological cohomology ring of the moduli space of K3 surfaces.
We compute the $E_2$-term of the Bousfield-Kan spectral sequence converging to the homotopy groups of the semi-cosimplicial $E_{\infty}$ ring spectrum $Q(2)_{(3)}$. This 3-local spectrum was constructed by M. Behrens using degree 2…
We study the Hurewicz map h from the homotopy groups of a spectrum X to the R-homology of its 0th space X(0), where R is a connective commutative S-algebra. We prove that the decreasing filtration of the domain of h associated to an R-based…
We prove vanishing results for the coherent cohomology of the good reduction modulo $p$ of the Siegel variety with coefficients in some automorphic bundles. We show that for an automorphic bundle with highest weight $\lambda$ near the walls…
For the affine Lie algebra $C_2^{(1)}$ we study non-principal and non-coprincipal admissible modules of integer level and their quantum Hamiltonian reduction, and show that they have $\Gamma_0(2)$-modular invariance.
Let $S$ be a compact orientable surface, and $\Mod(S)$ its mapping class group. Then there exists a constant $M(S)$, which depends on $S$, with the following property. Suppose $a,b \in \Mod(S)$ are independent (i.e., $[a^n,b^m]\not=1$ for…
We propose a way to organise the subject of ``higher-order homological stability'', in the context of a graded $E_2$-algebra $\mathbf{R}$, along the same lines that the chromatic perspective organises stable homotopy theory. From this point…
It has been a long-standing problem to find an adequate definition of a Clifford index for higher rank vector bundles on curves, which should capture the complexity of the curve in its moduli space. An interesting proposal in rank 2 has…
At the prime $2$, Behrens, Hill, Hopkins and Mahowald showed $M_2(1,4)$ admits $32$-periodic $v_2$-self-map and more recently authors joint with Mahowald showed $A_1$ also admits $32$-periodic $v_2$-self-map. This leads to the question,…
The goal of this paper is to explain certain experimentally observed properties of the (cuspidal) spectrum and its associated automorphic forms (Maass waveforms) on the congruence subgroup $\Gamma_{0}(9)$. The first property is that the…
We show that the homology of the Jones annular algebras is isomorphic to that of the cyclic groups below a line of gradient $\frac{1}{2}$. We also show that the homology of the partition algebras is isomorphic to that of the symmetric…
We construct a spectral sequence for L2-type cohomology groups of discrete measured groupoids. Based on the spectral sequence, we prove the Hopf-Singer conjecture for aspherical manifolds with poly-surface fundamental groups. More…
In this article we show that some of the recent results of Marino, Moore, and Peradze (math.DG/9812042, hep-th/9812055) -- in particular their conjecture that all closed, smooth four-manifolds with b_2^+ > 1 (and Seiberg-Witten simple type)…
