We prove that the mapping stack Map(Y,X) of topological stacks X and Y is again a topological stack if Y admits a compact groupoid presentation. If Y admits a locally compact groupoid presentation, we show that Map(Y,X) is a paratopological…

We revisit methods of proof of the Adams Conjecture in order to correct and supplement earlier efforts to prove analogous conjectures in the stable homotopy category. We utilize simplicial schemes over an algebraically closed field of…

One of the prime motivation for topology was Homotopy theory, which captures the general idea of a continuous transformation between two entities, which may be spaces or maps. In later decades, an algebraic formulation of topology was…

Suppose that $X$ and $Y$ are surfaces of finite topological type, where $X$ has genus $g\geq 6$ and $Y$ has genus at most $2g-1$; in addition, suppose that $Y$ is not closed if it has genus $2g-1$. Our main result asserts that every…

Constructions of spectra from symmetric monoidal categories are typically functorial with respect to strict structure-preserving maps, but often the maps of interest are merely lax monoidal. We describe conditions under which one can…

Suppose that $G$ is a finite group and $k$ is a field of characteristic $p>0$. A ghost map is a map in the stable category of finitely generated $kG$-modules which induces the zero map in Tate cohomology in all degrees. In an earlier paper…

We introduce an operation on modules over an $F$-finite ring of characteristic $p$. We call this operation \emph{tight interior}. While it exists more generally, in some cases this operation is equivalent to the Matlis dual of tight…

We furnish any category of a universal (co)homology theory. Universal (co)homologies and universal relative (co)homologies are obtained by showing representability of certain functors and take values in $R$-linear abelian categories of…

Let F be a finitely generated discrete group. Given a covering map H to G of Lie groups with G either compact or complex reductive, there is an induced covering map Hom(F, H) to Hom(F, G). We show that when the fundamental group of G is…

We prove that the homology groups of any connected reductive group over a field with coefficients in the Steinberg representation vanish in a range. The generalizes work of Ash-Putman-Sam on the classical split groups. We state a…

Given a countable group $G$ and two subshifts $X$ and $Y$ over $G$, a continuous, shift-commuting map $\phi : X \to Y$ is called a homomorphism. Our main result states that if every finitely generated subgroup of $G$ has polynomial growth,…

The codomain category of a generalized homology theory is the category of modules over a ring. For an abelian category A, an A-valued (generalized) homology theory is defined by formally replacing the category of modules with the category…

We show that the notions of homotopy epimorphism and homological epimorphism in the category of differential graded algebras are equivalent. As an application we obtain a characterization of acyclic maps of topological spaces in terms of…

Given a finite category T, we consider the functor category [T,A], where A can in particular be any quasi-abelian category. Examples of quasi-abelian categories are given by any abelian category but also by non-exact additive categories as…

Associated to any manifold equipped with a closed form of degree >1 is an `L-infinity algebra of observables' which acts as a higher/homotopy analog of the Poisson algebra of functions on a symplectic manifold. In order to study Lie group…

Suppose $X$ and $Y$ are compact connected topological 4-manifolds with fundamental group $\pi$. For any $r \geqslant 0$, $Y$ is $r$-stably homeomorphic to $X$ if $Y \# r(S^2 \times S^2)$ is homeomorphic to $X \# r(S^2\times S^2)$. How close…

Given topological spaces X and Y, a fundamental problem of algebraic topology is understanding the structure of all continuous maps X -> Y . We consider a computational version, where X, Y are given as finite simplicial complexes, and the…

We provide various counter-examples to the long-standing so-called "Omnibus Conjecture" in Rational Homotopy Theory. That is, we show that a space with finite dimensional even-degree rational cohomology and finite dimensional spherical…

We survey research on the homotopy theory of the space map(X, Y) consisting of all continuous functions between two topological spaces. We summarize progress on various classification problems for the homotopy types represented by the…

We generalize some results of Gray and McGibbon-Roitberg on relations between phantom maps and rational homotopy to relative phantom maps. Since the $\lim^1$ and the profinite completion techniques do not apply to relative phantom maps, we…
