We introduce the notion of $\Delta$ and $\sigma\,\Delta-$ pairs for operator algebras and characterise $\Delta-$ pairs through their categories of left operator modules over these algebras. Furthermore, we introduce the notion of…
We deform the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms into the group of Hamiltonian automorphisms of a formal star product on a symplectic manifold. We study the geometry of that group and deform the Flux morphism in the framework of…
This paper establishes an equivalence between two distinct frameworks for constructing and relating smooth manifolds: the geometric theory of \emph{$\star$-diagrams} and the string-theory-inspired notion of \emph{spherical T-duality}. We…
We give a Quillen equivalence between May and Sigurdsson's model category of parametrized spectra over BG, and Mandell, May, Schwede, and Shipley's model category of modules over the orthogonal ring spectrum \Sigma^\infty_+ G, for each…
This is a survey paper, based on lectures given at the Workshop on "Structured ring spectra and their applications" which took place January 21-25, 2002, at the University of Glasgow. The term `Morita theory' is usually used for results…
Roitman's combinatorial principle $\Delta$ is equivalent to monotone normality of the nabla product, $\nabla (\omega +1)^\omega$. If $\{ X_n : n\in \omega\}$ is a family of metrizable spaces and $\nabla_n X_n$ is monotonically normal, then…
Let $M$ be a closed, 3-connected, 8-dimensional smooth manifold. In this paper, we compute the concordance inertia group of the product manifold $M\times\mathbb{S}^k$ for $1\leq k\leq 14$ and classify all smooth manifolds homeomorphic to…
Given a compact symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$ and a compact Lagrangian submanifold $L\subset(M,\omega)$, we describe small deformations of the pair $(\omega,L)$ modulo the action by isotopies. We show that the resulting moduli space can…
This paper explores various differentiable structures on the product manifold $M \times \mathbb{S}^k$, where $M$ is either a 4-dimensional closed, oriented, smooth manifold or a simply connected 5-dimensional closed, smooth manifold. We…
For compact quantizable K\"ahler manifolds certain naturally defined star products and their constructions are reviewed. The presentation centers around the Berezin-Toeplitz quantization scheme which is explained. As star products the…
We extend the notion of Morita equivalence of Poisson manifolds to the setting of {\em formal} Poisson structures, i.e., formal power series of bivector fields $\pi=\pi_0 + \lambda\pi_1 +\cdots$ satisfying the Poisson integrability…
Symplectic structures on higher objects like Lie groupoids have been studied for some time now, but not all of the proposed definitions are preserved under Morita equivalence of Lie groupoids, in turn giving rise to a consistent notion of…
Let (M,\omega) be a symplectic manifold, and (\Sigma,\sigma) a closed connected symplectic 2-manifold. We construct a weakly symplectic form {\omega^{D}}_{(\Sigma, \sigma)} on the space of immersions \Sigma \to M that is a special case of…
In this paper, we extend the study of graded equivalences to the case of general idempotent graded rings. We prove that the existence of a graded equivalence between two categories of graded torsion-free unital modules may be characterized…
We study geometric properties of characteristic classes of surfaces bundles. In particular, we show that oriented surface bundles over bases with amenable fundamental groups and dimension at least 2 have trivial simplicial volume. We show…
Let $(X,\omega)$ be a symplectic rational 4 manifold. We study the space of tamed almost complex structures $\mathcal{J}_{\omega}$ using a fine decomposition via smooth rational curves and a relative version of the infinite-dimensional…
We characterize Morita equivalence of theories in the sense of Johnstone in terms of a new syntactic notion of a common definitional extension developed by Barrett and Halvorson for cartesian, regular, coherent, geometric and first-order…
A well-known result of Scopes states that there are only finitely many Morita equivalence classes of $p$-blocks of symmetric groups with a given weight (or defect). In this note we investigate a lower bound on the number of those Morita…
We regard classical phase space as a generalised complex manifold and analyse the B-transformation properties of the *-product of functions. The C*-algebra of smooth functions transforms in the expected way, while the C*-algebra of…
We consider two categories related to symplectic manifolds: 1. Objects are symplectic manifolds and morphisms are symplectic embeddings. 2. Objects are symplectic manifolds endowed with compatible almost complex structure and morphisms are…
