Let $M$ be a 1-connected closed manifold of dimension $m$ and $LM$ be the space of free loops on $M$. M.Chas and D.Sullivan defined a structure of BV-algebra on the singular homology of $LM$, $H_{*}(LM;k)$. When the ring of coefficients is a field of characteristic zero, we prove that there exists a BV-algebra structure on the Hochschild cohomology $H{H}^{*}(C^{*}\left(M\right);C^{*}\left(M\right))$ which extends the canonical structure of Gerstenhaber algebra. We construct then an isomorphism of BV-algebras between $H{H}^{*}(C^{*}\left(M\right);C^{*}\left(M\right))$ and the shifted homology $H_{*+m}(LM;k)$. We also prove...

Suppose that A and B are unital Banach algebras with units $1_A$ and $1_B$, respectively, M is a unital Banach A,B-module, $=\left[\begin{array}{cc}A& M\\ 0& B\end{array}\right]$ is the triangular Banach algebra, X is a unital -bimodule, $X_{AA}=1_{A}X{1}_A$, $X_{BB}=1_{B}X{1}_B$, $X_{AB}=1_{A}X{1}_B$ and $X_{BA}=1_{B}X{1}_A$. Applying two nice long exact sequences related to A, B, , X, $X_{AA}$, $X_{BB}$, $X_{AB}$ and $X_{BA}$ we establish some results on (co)homology of triangular Banach algebras.

Let X be a Riemann domain over ${ℂ}^k\times {ℂ}^{\ell }$. If X is a domain of holomorphy with respect to a family ℱ ⊂(X), then there exists a pluripolar set $P\subset {ℂ}^k$ such that every slice $X_a$ of X with a∉ P is a region of holomorphy with respect to the family ${f|}_{X_a}:f\in ℱ$.

For a prime $p\ge 5$, we compute the algebraic $K$-theory modulo $p$ and $v_1$ of the mod $p$ Adams summand, using topological cyclic homology. On the way, we evaluate its modulo $p$ and $v_1$ topological Hochschild homology. Using a localization sequence, we also compute the $K$-theory modulo $p$ and $v_1$ of the first Morava $K$-theory.

Let $n,d$ be two non-negative integers. A left $R$-module $M$ is called $(n,d)$-injective, if ${\mathrm{Ext}}^{d+1}(N,M)=0$ for every $n$-presented left $R$-module $N$. A right $R$-module $V$ is called $(n,d)$-flat, if ${\mathrm{Tor}}_{d+1}(V,N)=0$ for every $n$-presented left $R$-module $N$. A left $R$-module $M$ is called weakly $n$-$FP$-injective, if ${\mathrm{Ext}}^n(N,M)=0$ for every $(n+1)$-presented left $R$-module $N$. A right $R$-module $V$ is called weakly $n$-flat, if ${\mathrm{Tor}}_n(V,N)=0$ for every $(n+1)$-presented left $R$-module $N$. In this paper, we give some characterizations and properties of $(n,d)$-injective modules and $(n,d)$-flat modules in...

We introduce two entire functions $f_{{\mathrm{A}}_{\frac{1}{2}\infty }}$ and $f_{{\mathrm{D}}_{\frac{1}{2}\infty }}$ in two variables. Both of them have only two critical values $0$ and $1$, and the associated maps ${\mathbf{C}}^2\to \mathbf{C}$ define topologically locally trivial fibrations over $\mathbf{C}\setminus \{0,1\}$. All critical points in the singular fibers over $0$ and $1$ are ordinary double points, and the associated vanishing cycles span the middle homology group of the general fiber, whose intersection diagram forms bi-partitely decomposed infinite quivers of type ${\mathrm{A}}_{\frac{1}{2}\infty }$ and ${\mathrm{D}}_{\frac{1}{2}\infty }$, respectively. Coxeter elements...

Let ${\mathrm{𝙴𝙼𝙱𝙴𝙳}}_{k\to d}$ be the following algorithmic problem: Given a finite simplicial complex $K$ of dimension at most $k$, does there exist a (piecewise linear) embedding of $K$ into ${ℝ}^d$? Known results easily imply polynomiality of ${\mathrm{𝙴𝙼𝙱𝙴𝙳}}_{k\to 2}$ ($k=1,2$; the case $k=1,d=2$ is graph planarity) and of ${\mathrm{𝙴𝙼𝙱𝙴𝙳}}_{k\to 2k}$ for all $k\ge 3$. We show that the celebrated result of Novikov on the algorithmic unsolvability of recognizing the 5-sphere implies that ${\mathrm{𝙴𝙼𝙱𝙴𝙳}}_{d\to d}$ and ${\mathrm{𝙴𝙼𝙱𝙴𝙳}}_{(d-1)\to d}$ are undecidable for each ${}_d\ge 5$. Our main result is NP-hardness of ${\mathrm{𝙴𝙼𝙱𝙴𝙳}}_{2\to 4}$ and, more generally, of ${\mathrm{𝙴𝙼𝙱𝙴𝙳}}_{k\to d}$ for all...

We show that any ${\Sigma }_s$-product of at most $𝔠$-many $L\Sigma (\le \omega )$-spaces has the $L\Sigma (\le \omega )$-property. This result generalizes some known results about $L\Sigma (\le \omega )$-spaces. On the other hand, we prove that every ${\Sigma }_s$-product of monotonically monolithic spaces is monotonically monolithic, and in a similar form, we show that every ${\Sigma }_s$-product of Collins-Roscoe spaces has the Collins-Roscoe property. These results generalize some known results about the Collins-Roscoe spaces and answer some questions due to Tkachuk [Lifting the Collins-Roscoe...

Let $D$ be a ${𝒞}^d$ $q$-convex intersection, $d\ge 2$, $0\le q\le n-1$, in a complex manifold $X$ of complex dimension $n$, $n\ge 2$, and let $E$ be a holomorphic vector bundle of rank $N$ over $X$. In this paper, ${𝒞}^k$-estimates, $k=2,3,\cdots ,\infty$, for solutions to the $\overline{\partial }$-equation with small loss of smoothness are obtained for $E$-valued $(0,s)$-forms on $D$ when $n-q\le s\le n$. In addition, we solve the $\overline{\partial }$-equation with a support condition in ${𝒞}^k$-spaces. More precisely, we prove that for a $\overline{\partial }$-closed form $f$ in ${𝒞}_{0,q}^k(X\setminus D,E)$, $1\le q\le n-2$, $n\ge 3$, with compact support and for $\epsilon$ with $0<\epsilon <1$ there...

We study the Taylor towers of the nth symmetric and exterior power functors, Spⁿ and Λⁿ. We obtain a description of the layers of the Taylor towers, $D_{k}Spⁿ$ and $D_k\Lambda ⁿ$, in terms of the first terms in the Taylor towers of $S{p}^t$ and ${\Lambda }^t$ for t < n. The homology of these first terms is related to the stable derived functors (in the sense of Dold and Puppe) of $S{p}^t$ and ${\Lambda }^t$. We use stable derived functor calculations of Dold and Puppe to determine the lowest nontrivial homology groups for $D_{k}Spⁿ$ and $D_k\Lambda ⁿ$.

Let $G$ be a finite group and $k$ a field of characteristic $p>0$. In this paper, we obtain several equivalent conditions to determine whether the principal block $B_0$ of a finite $p$-solvable group $G$ is $p$-radical, which means that $B_0$ has the property that $e_0{\left(k_P\right)}^G$ is semisimple as a $kG$-module, where $P$ is a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$, $k_P$ is the trivial $kP$-module, ${\left(k_P\right)}^G$ is the induced module, and $e_0$ is the block idempotent of $B_0$. We also give the complete classification of a finite $p$-solvable group $G$ which has not more...

In this paper, we examine a natural question concerning the divisors of the polynomial $x^n-1$: “How often does $x^n-1$ have a divisor of every degree between $1$ and $n$?” In a previous paper, we considered the situation when $x^n-1$ is factored in $\mathbb{Z}\left[x\right]$. In this paper, we replace $\mathbb{Z}\left[x\right]$ with ${𝔽}_p\left[x\right]$, where $p$ is an arbitrary-but-fixed prime. We also consider those $n$ where this condition holds for all $p$.

In this paper we prove the following theorems in incidence geometry. 1. There is $\delta >0$ such that for any $P_1,\cdots ,P_4$, and $Q_1,\cdots ,Q_n\in {ℂ}^2$, if there are $\le n^{(1+\delta )/2}$ many distinct lines between $P_i$ and $Q_j$ for all $i$, $j$, then $P_1,\cdots ,P_4$ are collinear. If the number of the distinct lines is $<c{n}^{1/2}$ then the cross ratio of the four points is algebraic. 2. Given $c>0$, there is $\delta >0$ such that for any $P_1,P_2,P_3\in {ℂ}^2$ noncollinear, and $Q_1,\cdots ,Q_n\in {ℂ}^2$, if there are $\le c{n}^{1/2}$ many distinct lines between $P_i$ and $Q_j$ for all $i$, $j$, then for any $P\in {ℂ}^2\setminus \{P_1,P_2,P_3\}$, we have $\delta n$ distinct lines between $P$ and $Q_j$. 3. Given...

Let $C$ be a hyperelliptic curve of genus $g\ge 1$ over a number field $K$ with good reduction outside a finite set of places $S$ of $K$. We prove that $C$ has a Weierstrass model over the ring of integers of $K$ with height effectively bounded only in terms of $g$, $S$ and $K$. In particular, we obtain that for any given number field $K$, finite set of places $S$ of $K$ and integer $g\ge 1$ one can in principle determine the set of $K$-isomorphism classes of hyperelliptic curves over $K$ of genus $g$ with good reduction outside...
