In this thesis, we apply cochain complexes as an algebraic model of space in a diverse range of mathematical and scientific settings. We begin with an algebraic-discrete Morse theory model of auto-encoding cochain data, connecting the homotopy theory of d ...
We determine the bounded cohomology of the group of homeomorphisms of certain low-dimensional manifolds. In particular, for the group of orientation-preserving homeomorphisms of the circle and of the closed 2-disc, it is isomorphic to the polynomial ring g ...
In this thesis, we give a modern treatment of Dwyer's tame homotopy theory using the language of ∞-categories.
We introduce the notion of tame spectra and show it has a concrete algebraic description.
We then carry out a study of ∞-operads an ...
The Cartan formula encodes the relationship between the cup product and the action of the Steenrod algebra in F-p-cohomology. In this work, we present an effective proof of the Cartan formula at the cochain level when the field is F-2. More explicitly, for ...
We define twisted composition products of symmetric sequences via classifying morphisms rather than twisting cochains. Our approach allows us to establish an adjunction that simultaneously generalizes a classic one for algebras and coalgebras, and the bar- ...
