We provide a computation of the Čech cohomology of the pinwheel tiling using the Anderson–Putnam complex. A border-forcing version of the pinwheel tiling is produced that allows an explicit construction of the complex for the quotient of the continuous hull by the circle. The cohomology of the continuous hull is given using a spectral sequence argument of Barge, Diamond, Hunton and Sadun.
We calculate equivariant elliptic cohomology of the partial flag variety $\def \xmlpi #1{}\def \mathsfbi #1{\boldsymbol {\mathsf {#1}}}\let \le =\leqslant \let \leq =\leqslant \let \ge =\geqslant \let \geq =\geqslant \def \Pr {\mathit {Pr}}\def \Fr {\mathit {Fr}}\def \Rey {\mathit {Re}}G/H$, where $H\subseteq G$ are compact connected Lie groups of equal rank. We identify the ${\rm RO}(G)$-graded coefficients ${\mathcal{E}} ll_G^*$ as powers of Looijenga’s line bundle and prove that transfer along the map
is calculated by the Weyl–Kac character formula. Treating ordinary cohomology, $K$-theory and elliptic cohomology in parallel, this paper organizes the theoretical framework for the elliptic Schubert calculus of [N. Ganter and A. Ram, Elliptic Schubert calculus, in preparation].
A theorem due to Ohkawa states that the collection of Bousfield equivalence classes of spectra is a set. We extend this result to arbitrary combinatorial model categories.
In this work, we study the deformation theory of ${\mathcal {E}}_n$-rings and the ${\mathcal {E}}_n$ analogue of the tangent complex, or topological André–Quillen cohomology. We prove a generalization of a conjecture of Kontsevich, that there is a fiber sequence $A[n-1] \rightarrow T_A\rightarrow {\mathrm {HH}}^*_{{\mathcal {E}}_{n}}\!(A)[n]$, relating the ${\mathcal {E}}_n$-tangent complex and ${\mathcal {E}}_n$-Hochschild cohomology of an ${\mathcal {E}}_n$-ring $A$. We give two proofs: the first is direct, reducing the problem to certain stable splittings of configuration spaces of punctured Euclidean spaces; the second is more conceptual, where we identify the sequence as the Lie algebras of a fiber sequence of derived algebraic groups, $B^{n-1}A^\times \rightarrow {\mathrm {Aut}}_A\rightarrow {\mathrm {Aut}}_{{\mathfrak B}^n\!A}$. Here ${\mathfrak B}^n\!A$ is an enriched $(\infty ,n)$-category constructed from $A$, and ${\mathcal {E}}_n$-Hochschild cohomology is realized as the infinitesimal automorphisms of ${\mathfrak B}^n\!A$. These groups are associated to moduli problems in ${\mathcal {E}}_{n+1}$-geometry, a less commutative form of derived algebraic geometry, in the sense of the work of Toën and Vezzosi and the work of Lurie. Applying techniques of Koszul duality, this sequence consequently attains a nonunital ${\mathcal {E}}_{n+1}$-algebra structure; in particular, the shifted tangent complex $T_A[-n]$ is a nonunital ${\mathcal {E}}_{n+1}$-algebra. The ${\mathcal {E}}_{n+1}$-algebra structure of this sequence extends the previously known ${\mathcal {E}}_{n+1}$-algebra structure on ${\mathrm {HH}}^*_{{\mathcal {E}}_{n}}\!(A)$, given in the higher Deligne conjecture. In order to establish this moduli-theoretic interpretation, we make extensive use of factorization homology, a homology theory for framed $n$-manifolds with coefficients given by ${\mathcal {E}}_n$-algebras, constructed as a topological analogue of Beilinson and Drinfeld’s chiral homology. We give a separate exposition of this theory, developing the necessary results used in our proofs.
Is the cohomology of the classifying space of a p-compact group, with Noetherian twisted coefficients, a Noetherian module? In this paper we provide, over the ring of p-adic integers, such a generalization to p-compact groups of the Evens–Venkov Theorem. We consider the cohomology of a space with coefficients in a module, and we compare Noetherianity over the field with p elements with Noetherianity over the p-adic integers, in the case when the fundamental group is a finite p-group.
The actions, anomalies and quantization conditions allow the M2-brane and the M5-brane to support, in a natural way, structures beyond spin on their world-volumes. The main examples are twisted string structures. This also extends to twisted stringc structures which we introduce and relate to twisted string structures. The relation of the C-field to Chern–Simons theory suggests the use of the string cobordism category to describe the M2-brane.
We show that there is an essentially unique S-algebra structure on the Morava K-theory spectrum K(n), while K(n) has uncountably many MU or -algebra structures. Here is the K(n)-localized Johnson–Wilson spectrum. To prove this we set up a spectral sequence computing the homotopy groups of the moduli space of A∞ structures on a spectrum, and use the theory of S-algebra k-invariants for connectiveS-algebras found in the work of Dugger and Shipley [Postnikov extensions of ring spectra, Algebr. Geom. Topol. 6 (2006), 1785–1829 (electronic)] to show that all the uniqueness obstructions are hit by differentials.
The Kasparov groups are extended to the setting of inverse limits of G-C*-algebras, where G is assumed to be a locally compact group. The K K-product and other important features of the theory are generalized to this setting.
A method for computing the number of contours for a twistor diagram, using Grothendieck's algebraic de Rham theorem, is described and some examples are given.
The main result proved in this paper is the following. Suppose X1, X2 are two subspaces of a space X such that X = Int(X1)∪ X2 = X1 ∪ Int(X2). Then the pair (X1, X2) is a ϕ on X. This result settles an open question and includes all known results on ϕ-excisiveness in sheaf cohomology as its special cases. We construct several several examples to illustrate our main theorem and to show that it is, in fact, quite sharp.
We give an explicit construction of a continuous trace C*algebra with prescribed Dixmier-Douady class, and with only finite-dimensional irreducible representations. These algebras often have non-trivial automorphisms, and we show how a recent description of the outer automorphism group of a stable continuous trace C*algebra follows easily from our main result. Since our motivation came from work on a new notion of central separable algebras, we explore the connections between this purely algebraic subject and C*a1gebras.
We prove that for a non-discrete space X, the inequality DimL(X) ≥ dimL(X) + 1 always holds if (i) X is paracompact and each point is Gδ, or (ii) X is a completely paracompact Morita k-space. Consequently, if X is a non-discrete completely paracompact space in which each point is a Gδ-set or it is also a Morita k-space then, the equality DimL(X) = dimL(X) + 1 always holds. We apply this equality to show that for such a space X there exists a point x ∈ X and a family ϕ of supports on X such that {x} is not ϕ-taut with respect to sheaf cohomology. This generalizes a corresponding known result for Rn. We also discuss the usual sum theorems for this large cohomological dimension; the finite sum theorem for closed sets is proved, and for all others, counter examples are given. Subject to a small modification, however, all of the sum theorems hold for a large class of spaces.
