The Leray-Schauder index and the fixed point theory for arbitrary ANRs
C. Berger claimed to have constructed an -operad-structure on the permutohedras, whose associated monad is exactly the Milgram model for the free loop spaces. In this paper I will show that this statement is not correct.
Given a map f: X→Y and a Nielsen root class, there is a number associated to this root class, which is the minimal number of points among all root classes which are H-related to the given one for all homotopies H of the map f. We show that for maps between closed surfaces it is possible to deform f such that all the Nielsen root classes have cardinality equal to the minimal number if and only if either N R[f]≤1, or N R[f]>1 and f satisfies the Wecken property. Here N R[f] denotes the Nielsen...
The tropical semiring (R, min, +) has enjoyed a recent renaissance, owing to its connections to mathematical biology as well as optimization and algebraic geometry. In this paper, we investigate the space of labeled n-point configurations lying on a tropical line in d-space, which is interpretable as the space of n-species phylogenetic trees. This is equivalent to the space of n x d matrices of tropical rank two, a simplicial complex. We prove that this simplicial complex is shellable for dimension...
The suspension and loop space functors, Σ and Ω, operate on the lattice of Bousfield classes of (sufficiently highly connected) topological spaces, and therefore generate a submonoid ℒ of the complete set of operations on the Bousfield lattice. We determine the structure of ℒ in terms of a single parameter of homotopy theory which is closely tied to the problem of desuspending weak cellular inequalities.
This paper discusses the notion, the properties and the application of multicores, i.e. some compact sets contained in metric spaces.
In this paper a new class of multi-valued mappings (multi-morphisms) is defined as a version of a strongly admissible mapping, and its properties and applications are presented.
Let K(n)*(-) be a Morava K-theory at the prime 2. Invariant theory is used to identify K(n)*(BA4) as a summand of K(n)*(BZ/2 × BZ/2). Similarities with H*(BA4;Z/2) are also discussed.
The Mumford Conjecture asserts that the rational cohomology of the stable moduli space of Riemann surfaces is a polynomial algebra on the Mumford-Morita-Miller characteristic classes; this can be reformulated in terms of the classifying space derived from the mapping class groups. The conjecture admits a topological generalization, inspired by Tillmann’s theorem that admits an infinite loop space structure after applying Quillen’s plus construction. The text presents the proof by Madsen and...
We generalize the coincidence semi-index introduced in [D-J] to pairs of maps between topological manifolds. This permits extending the Nielsen theory to this class of maps.
