Elliptic cohomologies: an introductory survey.

Guillermo Moreno (1992)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

Let α and β be any angles then the known formula sin (α+β) = sinα cosβ + cosα sinβ becomes under the substitution x = sinα, y = sinβ, sin (α + β) = x √(1 - y2) + y √(1 - x2) =: F(x,y). This addition formula is an example of "Formal group law", which show up in many contexts in Modern Mathematics.In algebraic topology suitable cohomology theories induce a Formal group Law, the elliptic cohomologies are the ones who realize the Euler addition formula (1778): F(x,y) =: (x √R(y) + y √R(x)/1 - εx2y2)....

Embedding proper homotopy types

We show that the proper homotopy type of any properly c-connected locally finite n-dimensional CW-complex is represented by a closed polyhedron in 2 n - c (Theorem I). The case n - c ≥ 3 is a special case of a general proper homotopy embedding theorem (Theorem II). For n - c ≤ 2 we need some basic properties of “proper” algebraic topology which are summarized in Appendices A and B. The results of this paper are the proper analogues of classical results by Stallings [17] and Wall [20] for finite CW-complexes;...
