Simplicial types and polynomial algebras

Francisco Gómez (2002)

Archivum Mathematicum

This paper shows that the simplicial type of a finite simplicial complex K is determined by its algebra A of polynomial functions on the baricentric coordinates with coefficients in any integral domain. The link between K and A is done through certain admissible matrix associated to K in a natural way. This result was obtained for the real numbers by I. V. Savel’ev [5], using methods of real algebraic geometry. D. Kan and E. Miller had shown in [2] that A determines the homotopy type of the polyhedron...

Some homotopy theoretical questions arising in Nielsen coincidence theory

Ulrich Koschorke (2009)

Banach Center Publications

Basic examples show that coincidence theory is intimately related to central subjects of differential topology and homotopy theory such as Kervaire invariants and divisibility properties of Whitehead products and of Hopf invariants. We recall some recent results and ask a few questions which seem to be important for a more comprehensive understanding.
