We derive an explicit isomorphism between the Hilbert modular group and certain congruence subgroups on the one hand and particular subgroups of the special orthogonal group $SO(2, 2)$ on the other hand. The proof is based on an application…

The Linearization Theorem for proper Lie groupoids organizes and generalizes several results for classic geometries. Despite the various approaches and recent works on the subject, the problem of understanding invariant linearization…

It is shown that the category of presheaves of simplicial groupoids and the category of presheaves of 2-groupoids have Quillen closed model structures. Furthermore, their homotopy categories are equivalent to the homotopy categories of…

This paper links the third symmetric cohomology (introduced by Staic and Zarelua ) to crossed modules with certain properties. The equivalent result in the language of 2-groups states that an extension of 2-groups corresponds to an element…

We first prove the Grinberg-Kazhdan formal arc theorem without any assumptions on the characteristic. This part of the article is equivalent to arXiv:math-AG/0203263. Then we try to clarify the geometric ideas behind the proof by…

2-stratifolds are a generalization of 2-manifolds in that there are disjoint simple closed curves where several sheets meet. They arise in the study of categorical invariants of 3-manifolds and may have applications to topological data…

We completely determine the mod $2$ Seiberg-Witten invariants for any spin structure on any closed, oriented, smooth $4$-manifold $X$. Our computation confirms the validity of the simple type conjecture mod $2$ for spin structures. Our…

We describe an extension of the axioms of quantization to the case of 2-plectic manifolds. We show how such quantum spaces can be obtained as stable classical solutions in a zero-dimensional 3-algebra reduced model obtained by dimensional…

Let $V$ be an elementary abelian $2$-group and $X$ be a finite $V$-CW-complex. In this memoir we study two cochain complexes of modules over the mod2 Steenrod algebra $\mathrm{A}$, equipped with an action of $\mathrm{H}^{*}V$, the mod2…

We prove that each infinite 2-group with a unique 2-element subgroup is isomorphic either to the quasicyclic 2-group or to the infinite group of generalized quaternions.

This note aims to continue our study about the applications of Poisson quasi-Nijenhuis geometry to the theory of classical completely integrable systems. More precisely, we will present new versions of the deformation and involutivity…

In a paper published in 2012, the second author extended the well-known fact that Boolean algebras can be defined using only implication and a constant, to De Morgan algebras-this result led him to introduce, and investigate (in the same…

We collect some isomorphisms of categories and bijections of structures using the Kleisli and Eilenberg-Moore 2-adjunctions.

The paper investigates invariants of compactified Picard modular surfaces by principal congruence subgroups of Picard modular groups. The applications to the surface classification and modular forms are discussed.

We compare three different ways of defining group cohomology with coefficients in a crossed-module: 1) explicit approach via cocycles; 2) geometric approach via gerbes; 3) group theoretic approach via butterflies. We discuss the case where…

In this paper we give an expository account of quasistrict symmetric monoidal 2-categories, as introduced by Schommer-Pries. We reformulate the definition using a graphical calculus called wire diagrams, which facilitates computations and…

We give a practical method to compute the 2-torsion subgroup of the Jacobian of a non-hyperelliptic curve of genus $3$, $4$ or $5$. The method is based on the correspondence between the 2-torsion subgroup and the theta hyperplanes to the…

We provide new tools for the calculation of the torsion in the cohomology of congruence subgroups in the Bianchi groups : An algorithm for finding particularly useful fundamental domains, and an analysis of the equivariant spectral sequence…

In this paper we take up again the deformation theory for $K$-linear pseudofunctors initiated in a previous work (Adv. Math. 182 (2004) 204-277). We start by introducing a notion of a 2-cosemisimplicial object in an arbitrary 2-category and…

The construction of a quantum groupoid out of a double groupoid satisfying a filling condition and a perturbation datum is given. This extends previous work that appeared in math.QA/0308228. Several important classes of examples of tensor…
