The little $n$-disks operad is $SO(n)$ and $O(n)$-equivariantly formal over the rationals. Equivalently, the oriented and unoriented framed little disks operads are rationally formal as $\infty$-operads.

This paper is a survey of our work based on the stratified Morse theory of Goresky and MacPherson. First we discuss the Morse theory of Euclidean space stratified by an arrangement. This is used to show that the complement of a complex…

Let the circle act in a Hamiltonian fashion on a connected compact symplectic manifold $(M, \omega)$ of dimension $2n$. Then the $S^1$-action has at least $n+1$ fixed points. In a previous paper, we study the case when the fixed point set…

Let G be a compact, connected Lie group, acting smoothly on a manifold M. Goresky-Kottwitz-MacPherson described a small Cartan model for the equivariant cohomology of M, quasi-isomorphic to the standard Cartan complex of equivariant…

Given a space with a circle action, we study certain cocyclic chain complexes and prove a theorem relating cyclic homology to $S^1$-equivariant homology, in the spirit of celebrated work of Jones. As an application, we describe a chain…

For any orbifold M, we explicitly construct a simplicial complex S(M) from a given triangulation of the `coarse' underlying space together with the local isotropy groups of M. We prove that, for any local system on M, this complex S(M) has…

Let M be a closed embedded minimal hypersurface in a Euclidean sphere of dimension n+1, we prove that it is strongly rigid. As applications we confirm the conjecture proposed by Choi and Schoen in [3] and the Chern conjecture for n less…

Let $X$ be a compact, oriented, second countable pseudomanifold. We show that $HH^\ast_\bullet(\widetilde N^\ast_\bullet(X;\mathbb{Q}))$, the Hochschild cohomology of the blown-up intersection cochain complex of $X$, is well defined and…

This paper is our first step in establishing a de Rham model for equivariant twisted $K$-theory using machinery from noncommutative geometry. Let $G$ be a compact Lie group, $M$ a compact manifold on which $G$ acts smoothly. For any $\alpha…

Recent results on the decoherent histories quantization of simple cosmological models (minisuperspace models) are described. The most important issue is the construction, from the wave function, of a probability distribution answering…

The $n$-cube is the poset obtained by ordering all subsets of $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ by inclusion, and it can be partitioned into $\binom{n}{\lfloor n/2\rfloor}$ chains, which is the minimum possible number. Two such decompositions of the…

Let the circle act in a Hamiltonian fashion on a compact symplectic manifold $(M, \omega)$ of dimension $2n$. Then the $S^1$-action has at least $n+1$ fixed points. We study the case when the fixed point set consists of precisely $n+1$…

We present a conjectural description of the space of local operators on a stack of finitely many fivebranes in $M$ theory at the level of the holomorphic twist. Our approach is through the lens of twisted holography and utilizes a…

The goal of this article is to make explicit a structured complex whose homology computes the cohomology of the p-profinite completion of the n-fold loop space of a sphere of dimension d=n-m<n. This complex is defined purely algebraically,…

Using 4D Chern-Simons (CS) theory with gauge symmetry $G$ having minuscule coweights, we develop a suitable operator basis to deal with the explicit calculation of the Lax operator of integrable spin chain satisfying the RLL equation. Using…

This is the second of two papers in which we prove that a cell model of the moduli space of curves with marked points and tangent vectors at the marked points acts on the Hochschild co--chains of a Frobenius algebra. We also prove that a…

Our goal is to generalize the Choe-Hoppe helicoid and Clifford cones in Euclidean space. By sweeping out $L$ indpendent Clifford cones in ${\mathbb{R}}^{2N+2}$ via the multi-screw motion, we construct minimal submanifolds in…

We define a chain map of the form $\E(k)\otimes BA^{\otimes k}\longrightarrow BA$, where $\E$ is a combinatorial $E_\infty$-operad called the sequence operad, and $BA$ is the bar complex of an $\E$-algebra $A$. We see that Steenrod-type…

Given a group $G$ and a $G$-module $M$, we denote by $(C(G,M),d)$ the corresponding cochain complex obtained from the standard resolution. An element of the cohomology $H(G,M)$ will be written as the class $[a]$ of some cocycle $a\in…

In this note, we define the notion of a cactus set, and show that its geometric realization is naturally an algebra over Voronov's cactus operad, which is equivalent to the framed 2-dimensional little disks operad $\mathcal{D}_2$. Using…
