The paper establishes a new pseudoisotopy result for embedding spaces, leading to computations of homotopy groups of long knots.
problem Computing homotopy groups of spaces of long knots in high codimension.
method Using pseudoisotopy results and algebraic K-theory, the paper describes the difference in homotopy types of block and ordinary embeddings of a codimension at least three embedding.
result The homotopy type of spaces of long knots of codimension at least 3 is determined explicitly, including torsion information.
This paper describes results characterizing the range of the time-t heat operator on various manifolds, including Euclidean spaces, spheres, and hyperbolic spaces. The guiding principle behind these results is this: The functions in the range of the heat operator should be, roughly, those functions having an analytic c…
We describe partial semi-simplicial resolutions of moduli spaces of surfaces with tangential structure. This allows us to prove a homological stability theorem for these moduli spaces, which often improves the known stability ranges and give explicit stability ranges in many new cases. In each of these cases the stable…
We describe the range of a restricted spherical mean transform, which sends a function supported inside a closed ball in a hyperbolic space to its mean values on the geodesics spheres centered at the boundary of the ball. The description resembles that of the same transform on the Euclidean spaces obtained by Mark Agra…
Given a semisimple, compact, connected Lie group G with complexification G^c, we show there is a stable range in the homotopy type of the universal moduli space of flat connections on a principal G-bundle on a closed Riemann surface, and equivalently, the universal moduli space of semistable holomorphic G^c-bundles. Th…
We study the isoperimetric, functional and concentration properties of n-dimensional weighted Riemannian manifolds satisfying the Curvature-Dimension condition, when the generalized dimension N is negative, and more generally, is in the range N∈(−∞,1), extending the scope from the traditional range $N \i…
We show the existence of the full compound asymptotics of solutions to the scalar wave equation on long-range non-trapping Lorentzian manifolds modeled on the radial compactification of Minkowski space. In particular, we show that there is a joint asymptotic expansion at null and timelike infinity for forward solutions…
We give a complete obstruction to turning an immersion of an m-dimensional manifold M in Euclidean n-space into an embedding when 3n>4m+4. It is a secondary obstruction, and exists only when the primary obstruction, due to Haefliger, vanishes. The obstruction lives in a twisted cobordism group, and its vanishing implie…
Heat kernels are used in this paper to express the analytic index of projectively invariant Dirac type operators on G-covering spaces of compact manifolds, as elements in the K-theory of certain unconditional completions of the twisted group algebra of G. This is combined with V. Lafforgue's results in the untwisted ca…
The theory of geometric zeta functions for locally symmetric spaces as initialized by Selberg and continued by numerous mathematicians is generalized to the case of higher rank spaces. We show analytic continuation, describe the divisor in terms of tangential cohomology and in terms of group cohomology which generalize…
This paper studies the homotopy type of the moduli space of compact n-manifold thickenings of a finite complex. The main result computes the homotopy fibers of the stabilization map from n-thickenings to (n+1)-thickenings in a wide range. In particular, we obtain an EHP-type sequence for thickenings extending work of C…
Bayesian networks (BN) are used in a big range of applications but they have one issue concerning parameter learning. In real application, training data are always incomplete or some nodes are hidden. To deal with this problem many learning parameter algorithms are suggested foreground EM, Gibbs sampling and RBE algori…
In this paper, we introduce a deformation analysis of index theory over non compact manifolds, by use of new functional spaces which are the reduced version of Sobolev spaces. It allows to construct Fredholm theory for elliptic differential operators over non compact spaces which possibly do not have closed range with …
