Let $\Phi: \Bbb S^{1}\times M\longrightarrow M$ be a smooth action of the unit circle $\Bbb S^{1}$ on a manifold $M$. In this work, we compute the minimal model of $M$ in terms of the orbit space $B$ and the fixed point ...

The d.g. operad C of cellular chains on the operad of spineless cacti is isomorphic to the Gerstenhaber-Voronov operad codifying the cup product and brace operations on the Hochschild cochains of an associative algebra, ...

A decomposition space (also called unital 2-Segal space) is a simplicial object satisfying an exactness condition weaker than the Segal condition: just as the Segal condition expresses (up to homotopy) composition, the new ...

Decomposition spaces are simplicial 8-groupoids subject to a certain exactness condition, needed to induce a coalgebra structure on the space of arrows. Conservative ULF functors (CULF) between decomposition spaces induce ...

This is the first in a series of papers devoted to the theory of decomposition spaces, a general framework for incidence algebras and Möbius inversion, where algebraic identities are realised by taking homotopy cardinality ...

Decomposition spaces are simplicial 8-groupoids subject to a certain exactness condition, needed to induce a coalgebra structure on the space of arrows. Conservative ULF functors between decomposition spaces induce coalgebra ...

This paper provides an explicit cofibrant resolution of the operad encoding Batalin-Vilkovisky algebras. Thus it defines the notion of homotopy Batalin-Vilkovisky algebras with the required homotopy properties. To define ...

By homotopy linear algebra we mean the study of linear functors between slices of the 8-category of 8-groupoids, subject to certain finiteness conditions. After some standard definitions and results, we assemble said slices ...

We prove the existence of Sullivan minimal models of operad algebras for a quite wide family of operads in the category of complexes of vector spaces over a ¿eld of characteristic zero. Our construction is an adaptation ...
