Formality and hard Lefschetz property of aspherical manifolds [PDF]
For a Lie group $G=\R^{n}\ltimes_{\phi}\R^{m}$ with the semi-simple action $\phi:\R^{n}\to {\rm Aut}(\R^{m})$, we show that if $\Gamma$ is a finite extension of a lattice of $G$ then $K(\Gamma, 1)$ is formal.

On Poincaré duality for pairs (G,W)
Let G be a group and W a G-set. In this work we prove a result that describes geometrically, for a Poincaré duality pair (G, W ), the set of representatives for the G-orbits in W and the family of isotropy subgroups.

Homotopy colimits of nilpotent spaces [PDF]
We show that cellular approximations of nilpotent Postnikov stages are always nilpotent Postnikov stages, in particular classifying spaces of nilpotent groups are turned into classifying spaces of nilpotent groups.

Nullification functors and the homotopy type of the classifying space for proper bundles [PDF]
Let G be a discrete group for which the classifying space for proper G-actions is finite-dimensional. We find a space W such that for any such G, the classifying space PBG for proper G-bundles has the homotopy type of the W-nullification of BG.

Which spaces look like an n-sphere through the eyes of the n-th Postnikov section functor and the n-connected cover functor? The answer is what we call the Postnikov genus of the n-sphere.

Towards a splitting of the $K(2)$-local string bordism spectrum
We show that $K(2)$-locally, the smash product of the string bordism spectrum and the spectrum $T_2$ splits into copies of Morava $E$-theories. Here, $T_2$ is related to the Thom spectrum of the canonical bundle over $\Omega SU(4)$.Comment: Revised ...

EMPIRICAL MODELS FOR PREDICTION COMPRESSION STRENGTH OF PAPERBOARD CARTON [PDF]
When designing packaging in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped from various paperboard materials, it is important to determine their resistance to vertical compression force, which should be less than the critical compression force.

Can one classify finite Postnikov pieces?
We compare the classical approach of constructing finite Postnikov systems by k-invariants and the global approach of Dwyer, Kan, and Smith. We concentrate on the case of 3-stage Postnikov pieces and provide examples where a classification is feasible ...
