Embedding, compression and fiberwise homotopy theory

, 2002
Given Poincare spaces M and X, we study the possibility of compressing embeddings of M x I in X x I down to embeddings of M in X. This results in a new approach to embedding in the metastable range both in the smooth and Poincare duality categories ...

Coulomb branch algebras via symplectic cohomology

Journal of Topology, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Let (M¯,ω)$(\bar{M}, \omega)$ be a compact symplectic manifold with convex boundary and c1(TM¯)=0$c_1(T\bar{M})=0$. Suppose that (M¯,ω)$(\bar{M}, \omega)$ is equipped with a convex Hamiltonian G$G$‐action for some connected, compact Lie group G$G$.

An extended definition of Anosov representation for relatively hyperbolic groups

Journal of Topology, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract We define a new family of discrete representations of relatively hyperbolic groups which unifies many existing definitions and examples of geometrically finite behavior in higher rank. The definition includes the relative Anosov representations defined by Kapovich–Leeb and Zhu, and Zhu–Zimmer, as well as holonomy representations of various ...

Calabi quasi-morphisms for some non-monotone symplectic manifolds [PDF]

, 2006
In this work we construct Calabi quasi-morphisms on the universal cover of the group Ham(M) of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms for some non-monotone symplectic manifolds.

Infinity‐operadic foundations for embedding calculus

Journal of Topology, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Motivated by applications to spaces of embeddings and automorphisms of manifolds, we consider a tower of ∞$\infty$‐categories of truncated right modules over a unital ∞$\infty$‐operad O$\mathcal {O}$. We study monoidality and naturality properties of this tower, identify its layers, describe the difference between the towers as O$\mathcal {O}$

Dynamic Homotopy and Landscape Dynamical Set Topology in Quantum Control

, 2012
We examine the topology of the subset of controls taking a given initial state to a given final state in quantum control, where "state" may mean a pure state |\psi>, an ensemble density matrix \rho, or a unitary propagator U(0,T).

Spatial‐Wavelength Multiplexing Error‐Controlled Photonic Analog Computing System

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 28, 18 May 2026.
A novel photonic integrated circuit prototype implementing the concept of general‐purpose analog computing and demonstrate its capability in radio frequency applications. The chip features a multichannel architecture and performs fully optical analog computation with frequency‐domain parallel processing. An FPGA‐based error‐correction algorithm aims to

Hermitian K-theory of the integers

, 2005
The 2-primary torsion of the higher algebraic K-theory of the integers has been computed by Rognes and Weibel. In this paper we prove analogous results for the Hermitian K-theory of the integers with 2 inverted (denoted by Z'). We also prove in this case

A note on relative Gelfand–Fuks cohomology of spheres

Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 58, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract We study the Gelfand–Fuks cohomology of smooth vector fields on Sd$\mathbb {S}^d$ relative to SO(d+1)$\mathrm{SO}(d+1)$ following a method of Haefliger that uses tools from rational homotopy theory. In particular, we show that H∗(BSO(4);R)$H^*(\mathrm{B}\mathrm{SO}(4);\mathbb {R})$ injects into the relative Gelfand–Fuks cohomology which ...
