Let $G$ be a group and let $k$ be a field. Kaplansky's direct finiteness conjecture states that every one-sided unit of the group ring $k[G]$ must be a two-sided unit. In this paper, we establish a geometric direct finiteness theorem for…

We study the homotopy types of spaces of algebraic (rational) maps from real projective spaces into complex projective spaces. In a previous paper we have shown that the inclusion of the first space into the second one is a homotopy…

In this paper, we prove three related results; (1) Extension of our result in [10] to all generic hypersurfaces. More precisely, the normal sheaf of a generic rational map $c_0$ to a generic hypersurface $X_0$ of $\mathbf P^n, n\geq 4$ has…

A well known notion of $k$-rectifiable set can be formulated in any metric space using Lipschitz images of subsets of $\mathbb{R}^k$. We prove some characterizations of $k$-rectifiability, when the metric space is an arbitrary homogeneous…

For a connected semisimple group G over the field of real numbers R, using a method of Onishchik and Vinberg, we compute the first Galois cohomology set H^1(R,G) in terms of Kac labelings of the affine Dynkin diagram of G.

Using the notion of contiguity of simplicial maps, we adapt Farber's topological complexity to the realm of simplicial complexes. We show that, for a finite simplicial complex $K$, our discretized concept recovers the topological complexity…

We calculate the rational cohomology of the commuting variety $X_{G, n}$ consisting of $n$-tuples of commuting elements of a compact reductive group $G$. This is done by studying a map from a related variety $Y_{G, n}$, which has easily…

Several results concerning pairs of polynomially convex sets whose union is not even rationally convex are given. It is shown that there is no restriction on how two spaces can be embedded in some $\C^N$ so as to be polynomially convex but…

Goresky, Kottwitz and MacPherson have recently shown that the computation of the equivariant cohomology ring of a G-manifold can be reduced to a computation in graph theory. This opens up the possibility that many of the fundamental…

We consider the action of a real reductive group G on a Kaehler manifold Z which is the restriction of a holomorphic action of the complexified group G^C. We assume that the induced action of a compatible maximal compact subgroup U of G^C…

We prove equality of the various $p$-adic period morphisms for smooth, not necessarily proper, schemes. We start with showing that the $K$-theoretical uniqueness criterium we had found for proper smooth schemes extends to proper finite…

This paper investigates topological reconstruction, related to the reconstruction conjecture in graph theory. We ask whether the homeomorphism types of subspaces of a space $X$ which are obtained by deleting singletons determine $X$…

Finite-sheeted covering mappings onto compact connected groups are studied. It is shown that a finite-sheeted covering mapping from a connected Hausdorff topological space onto a compact connected abelian group G must be a homeomorphism…

Highly localized kernels constructed by orthogonal polynomials have been fundamental in recent development of approximation and computational analysis on the unit sphere, unit ball and several other regular domains. In this work we first…

\v{C}ech cohomology $H^n(X)$ of a separable metrizable space $X$ is defined in terms of cohomology of its nerves (or ANR neighborhoods) $P_\beta$ whereas Steenrod-Sitnikov homology $H_n(X)$ is defined in terms of homology of compact subsets…

We prove that the classical Oka property of a complex manifold Y, concerning the existence and homotopy classification of holomorphic mappings from Stein manifolds to Y, is equivalent to a Runge approximation property for holomorphic maps…

A series of recent papers by Bergfalk, Lupini and Panagiotopoulus developed the foundations of a field known as `definable algebraic topology,' in which classical cohomological invariants are enriched by viewing them as groups with a Polish…

For valued fields $K$ of rank higher than 1, we describe how elements in the henselization $K^h$ of $K$ can be approximated from within $K$; our result is a handy generalization of the well-known fact that in rank 1, all of these elements…

Simplicial complexes can be viewed as high dimensional generalizations of graphs that explicitly encode multi-way ordered relations between vertices at different resolutions, all at once. This concept is central towards detection of higher…

Let $U\subseteq\mathbb{R}^d$ be open and convex. We prove that every (not necessarily Lipschitz or strongly) convex function $f:U\to\mathbb{R}$ can be approximated by real analytic convex functions, uniformly on all of $U$. We also show…
