The aim of this short survey is to give a quick introduction to the Salvetti complex as a tool for the study of the cohomology of Artin groups. In particular we show how a spectral sequence induced by a filtration on the complex provides a very natural and useful method to study recursively the cohomology of Artin groups, simplifying many computations. In the last section some examples of applications are presented.
We consider cohomology defined by a system of local Lagrangian and investigate under which conditions the variational Lie derivative of associated local currents is a system of conserved currents. The answer to such a question involves Jacobi equations for the local system. Furthermore, we recall that it was shown by Krupka et al. that the invariance of a closed Helmholtz form of a dynamical form is equivalent with local variationality of the Lie derivative of the dynamical form; we remark that...
We describe, for any compact connected Lie group G and any prime p, the monoid of self maps → which are rational equivalences. Here, denotes the p-adic completion of the classifying space of G. Among other things, we show that two such maps are homotopic if and only if they induce the same homomorphism in rational cohomology, if and only if their restrictions to the classifying space of the maximal torus of G are homotopic.
Our aim is to show a method of finding all natural transformations of a functor into itself. We use here the terminology introduced in [4,5]. The notion of a soldered double linear morphism of soldered double vector spaces (fibrations) is defined. Differentiable maps commuting with -soldered automorphisms of a double vector space are investigated. On the set of such mappings, appropriate partial operations are introduced. The natural transformations are bijectively related with the elements...
Let E be the total space of a Hurewicz fiber space whose base and all fibers are ANRs. We prove that if E is metrisable, then it is also an ANR.
