M-theory and characteristic classes

In this note we show that the Chern-Simons and the one-loop terms in the M-theory action can be written in terms of new characters involving the M-theory four-form and the string classes. This sheds a new light on the topological structure behind M-theory and suggests the construction of a theory of “higher” characteristic classes.

S^equivariant Function Spaces and Characteristic Classes

We determine the structure of the homology of the BeckerSchultz space SGiS1) ~ Q(CP^° AS1) of stable Sx-equivariant self-maps of spheres (with standard free S1 -action) as a Hopf algebra over the DyerLashof algebra. We use this to compute the homology of BSGiS1). Along the way, we give a fresh account of the partially framed transfer construction and the Becker-Schultz homotopy equivalence. We ...

Categories of Spectra and Infinite Loop Spaces

At the Seattle conference, I presented a calculation of H,(F;Zp) as an algebra, for odd primes p, where F = lim F(n) and F(n) is the topological monoid > of homotopy equivalences of an n-sphere. This computation was meant as a preliminary step towards the computation of H*(BF;Zp). Since then, I have calculated H*(BF;Zp), for all primes p, as a Hopf algebra over the Steenrod and Dyer-Lashof alge...

Characteristic Classes, Chern Classes and Applications to Intersection Theory

This is a report for my summer REU program at the University of Chicago, 2014. I would like to acknowledge my mentor Sean Howe in this program for his generous guidance on learning the subject and writing this article, Professor J.P. May who runs this REU program successfully and made my wonderful experience possible, and Professor M. Yan who has encouraged me ever since my first year in colleg...
