Taylor towers for Γ -modules

Birgit Richter (2001)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We consider Taylor approximation for functors from the small category of finite pointed sets Γ to modules and give an explicit description for the homology of the layers of the Taylor tower. These layers are shown to be fibrant objects in a suitable closed model category structure. Explicit calculations are presented in characteristic zero including an application to higher order Hochschild homology. A spectral sequence for the homology of the homotopy fibres of this approximation is provided.

Taylor towers of symmetric and exterior powers

Brenda Johnson, Randy McCarthy (2008)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

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 S p and D k Λ , in terms of the first terms in the Taylor towers of S p t and Λ 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 Λ t . We use stable derived functor calculations of Dold and Puppe to determine the lowest nontrivial homology groups for D k S p and D k Λ .

The Batalin-Vilkovisky Algebra on Hochschild Cohomology Induced by Infinity Inner Products

Thomas Tradler (2008)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We define a BV-structure on the Hochschild cohomology of a unital, associative algebra A with a symmetric, invariant and non-degenerate inner product. The induced Gerstenhaber algebra is the one described in Gerstenhaber’s original paper on Hochschild-cohomology. We also prove the corresponding theorem in the homotopy case, namely we define the BV-structure on the Hochschild-cohomology of a unital A -algebra with a symmetric and non-degenerate -inner product.

The center of a graded connected Lie algebra is a nice ideal

Yves Félix (1996)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Let ( 𝕃 ( V ) , d ) be a free graded connected differential Lie algebra over the field of rational numbers. An ideal I in the Lie algebra H ( 𝕃 ( V ) , d ) is called nice if, for every cycle α 𝕃 ( V ) such that [ α ] belongs to I , the kernel of the map H ( 𝕃 ( V ) , d ) H ( 𝕃 ( V x ) , d ) , d ( x ) = α , is contained in I . We show that the center of H ( 𝕃 ( V ) , d ) is a nice ideal and we give in that case some informations on the structure of the Lie algebra H ( 𝕃 ( V x ) , d ) . We apply this computation for the determination of the rational homotopy Lie algebra L X = π * ( Ω X ) of a simply connected space X . We deduce that the...

The classification of weighted projective spaces

Anthony Bahri, Matthias Franz, Dietrich Notbohm, Nigel Ray (2013)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We obtain two classifications of weighted projective spaces: up to hoeomorphism and up to homotopy equivalence. We show that the former coincides with Al Amrani's classification up to isomorphism of algebraic varieties, and deduce the latter by proving that the Mislin genus of any weighted projective space is rigid.

The cobordism of Real manifolds

Po Hu (1999)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We calculate completely the Real cobordism groups, introduced by Landweber and Fujii, in terms of homotopy groups of known spectra.

The cohomology algebra of certain free loop spaces

Toshihiro Yamaguchi, Katsuhiko Kuribayashi (1997)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Let X be a simply connected space and LX the space of free loops on X. We determine the mod p cohomology algebra of LX when the mod p cohomology of X is generated by one element or is an exterior algebra on two generators. We also provide lower bounds on the dimensions of the Hodge decomposition factors of the rational cohomology of LX when the rational cohomology of X is a graded complete intersection algebra. The key to both of these results is the identification of an important subalgebra of...
