Lagrangian structures on the derived moduli of constructible sheaves

This paper establishes that the moduli of D(k)\mathcal{D}(k)-valued constructible sheaves and perverse sheaves on a compact oriented manifold with a conically smooth stratification are (2n)(2-n)-shifted Lagrangian, a result derived from constructing a relative left nn-Calabi--Yau structure via lax gluing of categorical cubes and identifying symplectic leaves for perverse sheaves with prescribed monodromy.

Discrimination of Dynamic Data via Curvature Sets

This paper introduces dynamic curvature-set persistent homology, a computationally tractable and stable method for distinguishing dynamic data by extending Kim and Mémoli's spatiotemporal framework to curvature sets, proving the resulting modules are antichain-decomposable to enable efficient erosion distance computation and successfully demonstrating its ability to detect parameter changes in the Boids model.

Minimal Projective Resolutions, Möbius Inversion, and Bottleneck Stability

This paper establishes a stability theorem for minimal projective resolutions of modules over finite metric posets by proving that a newly defined bottleneck distance between resolutions is bounded above by the Galois transport distance, thereby generalizing classical bottleneck stability to multiparameter persistence and providing a stability framework for Möbius homology.

Separable commutative algebras in equivariant homotopy theory

This paper investigates separable commutative algebras in equivariant homotopy theory, establishing conditions under which they are "standard" (arising from finite GG-sets) and demonstrating that while all such algebras are standard for pp-groups, non-standard examples exist for general finite groups, with the classification further refined by the presence of multiplicative norms and the solvability of the group.

On the smoothing theory delooping of disc diffeomorphism and embedding spaces

This paper generalizes the classical Morlet-Burghelea-Lashof-Kirby-Siebenmann smoothing theory delooping of disc diffeomorphism groups to various disc embedding spaces, establishing their equivalence to specific loop spaces of quotient classifying spaces and demonstrating how these deloopings unify Hatcher and Budney group actions into a framed little discs operad action.

Relative A1\mathbb{A}^1-Contractibility of Smooth Schemes and Exotic Motivic Spheres

This thesis extends the relative A1\mathbb{A}^1-contractibility of Koras-Russell threefolds and their higher-dimensional prototypes to arbitrary Noetherian base schemes, thereby establishing the existence of the first known family of smooth "exotic" motivic spheres in dimensions n4n \geq 4 that are A1\mathbb{A}^1-homotopic to, but not isomorphic to, the punctured affine space An{0}\mathbb{A}^n \setminus \{0\}.
