Homology and K-theory of the Bianchi groups [PDF]
We reveal a correspondence between the homological torsion of the Bianchi groups and new geometric invariants, which are effectively computable thanks to their action on hyperbolic space.

Algebraic K-theory of group rings and the cyclotomic trace map
We prove that the Farrell-Jones assembly map for connective algebraic K-theory is rationally injective, under mild homological finiteness conditions on the group and assuming that a weak version of the Leopoldt-Schneider conjecture holds for cyclotomic ...

Compactness results in Symplectic Field Theory
This is one in a series of papers devoted to the foundations of Symplectic Field Theory sketched in [Y Eliashberg, A Givental and H Hofer, Introduction to Symplectic Field Theory, Geom. Funct. Anal. Special Volume, Part II (2000) 560--673].

On a nilpotence conjecture of J.P. May [PDF]
We prove a conjecture of J.P. May concerning the nilpotence of elements in ring spectra with power operations, i.e., $H_\infty$-ring spectra. Using an explicit nilpotence bound on the torsion elements in $K(n)$-local $H_\infty$-algebras over $E_n$, we ...

A super-analogue of Kontsevich's theorem on graph homology
In this paper we will prove a super-analogue of a well-known result by Kontsevich which states that the homology of a certain complex which is generated by isomorphism classes of oriented graphs can be calculated as the Lie algebra homology of an ...

Computational methods for higher real K-theory with applications to tmf [PDF]
Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Mathematics, 2006.Includes bibliographical references (p. 67-69).We begin by present a new Hopf algebra which can be used to compute the tmf homology of a space or spectrum at the prime 3 ...

Open-closed field theories, string topology, and Hochschild homology
In this expository paper we discuss a project regarding the string topology of a manifold, that was inspired by recent work of Moore-Segal, Costello, and Hopkins and Lurie, on "open-closed topological conformal field theories".

In 1983, Donaldson shocked the topology world by using instantons from physics to prove new theorems about four-dimensional manifolds, and he developed new topological invariants.
