Cone‐equivalent nilpotent groups with different Dehn functions
Abstract For every k⩾3$k\geqslant 3$, we exhibit a simply connected k$k$‐nilpotent Lie group Nk$N_k$ whose Dehn function behaves like nk$n^k$, while the Dehn function of its associated Carnot graded group gr(Nk)$\mathsf {gr}(N_k)$ behaves like nk+1$n^{k+1}$. This property and its consequences allow us to reveal three new phenomena.

Abstract Given a generic stable strongly parabolic SL(2,C)$\operatorname{SL}(2,\mathbb {C})$‐Higgs bundle (E,φ)$({\mathcal {E}}, \varphi )$, we describe the family of harmonic metrics ht$h_t$ for the ray of Higgs bundles (E,tφ)$({\mathcal {E}}, t \varphi )$ for t≫0$t\gg 0$ by perturbing from an explicitly constructed family of approximate solutions ...

Some recent advances in topological Hochschild homology
Abstract We give an account of the construction of the Bhatt–Morrow–Scholze motivic filtration on topological cyclic homology and related invariants, focusing on the case of equal characteristic p$p$ and the connections to crystalline and de Rham–Witt theory.

Homotopy type of the complex of free factors of a free group
Abstract We show that the complex of free factors of a free group of rank n⩾2 is homotopy equivalent to a wedge of spheres of dimension n−2. We also prove that for n⩾2, the complement of (unreduced) Outer space in the free splitting complex is homotopy equivalent to the complex of free factor systems and moreover is (n−2)‐connected.

Connection space approach to ambiguities of gauge theories
Two distinct gauge potentials can have the same field strength, in which case they are said to be “copies” of each other. The consequences of this ambiguity for the general affine space 𝒜 of gauge potentials are examined. Any two potentials are connected by a straight line in 𝒜, but a straight line going through two copies either contains no other copy

Moduli space of filtered λ‐ringstructures over a filtered ring
Motivated in part by recent works on the genus of classifying spaces of compact Lie groups, here we study the set of filtered λ‐ring structures over a filtered ring from a purely algebraic point of view. From a global perspective, we first show that this set has a canonical topology compatible with the filtration on the given filtered ring.

On ideals and homology in additive categories
Ideals are used to define homological functors in additive categories. In abelian categories the ideals corresponding to the usual universal objects are principal, and the construction reduces, in a choice dependent way, to homology groups. The applications considered in this paper are: derived categories and functors.

Holomorphic field theories and higher algebra
Abstract Aimed at complex geometers and representation theorists, this survey explores higher dimensional analogs of the rich interplay between Riemann surfaces, Virasoro and Kac‐Moody Lie algebras, and conformal blocks. We introduce a panoply of examples from physics — field theories that are holomorphic in nature, such as holomorphic Chern‐Simons ...

Homological Lie brackets on moduli spaces and pushforward operations in twisted K‐theory
Abstract We develop a general theory of pushforward operations for principal G$G$‐bundles equipped with a certain type of orientation. In the case G=BU(1)$G={B\mathrm{U}(1)}$ and orientations in twisted K‐theory, we construct two pushforward operations, the projective Euler operation, whose existence was conjectured by Joyce, and the projective rank ...

Orbifold Kodaira–Spencer maps and closed‐string mirror symmetry for punctured Riemann surfaces
Abstract When a Weinstein manifold admits an action of a finite abelian group, we propose its mirror construction following the equivariant 2D TQFT‐type construction, and obtain as a mirror the orbifolding of the mirror of the quotient with respect to the induced dual group action. As an application, we construct an orbifold Landau–Ginzburg mirror of a
