Structured Topological Field Theories via Crossed Simplicial Groups
نویسنده
چکیده
We show how the framework of crossed simplicial groups may be used to provide a classification of topological field theories on open cobordism categories defined by reductions of the structure group to a planar Lie group. Such theories are equivalent to algebras equipped with a group action and a non-degenerate trace satisfying certain invariance requirements which generalize the notion of a frobenius algebra.

Crossed Simplicial Groups and Their Associated Homology
We introduce a notion of crossed simplicial group, which generalizes Connes' notion of the cyclic category. We show that this concept has several equivalent descriptions and give a complete classification of these structures. We also show how many of Connes' results can be generalized and simplified in this framework. A simplicial set (resp. group) is a family of sets (resp. groups) {Gn}n>0 tog...

Spaces of maps into classifying spaces for equivariant crossed complexes, II: The general topological group case. Abstract The results of a previous paper [3] on the equivariant homotopy theory of crossed complexes are generalised from the case of a discrete group to general topological groups. The principal new ingredient necessary for this is an analysis of homotopy coherence theory for cross...
متن کاملCovering Groups of Non-connected Topological Groups Revisited
All spaces are assumed to be locally path connected and semi-locally 1-connected. Let X be a connected topological group with identity e, and let p : X̃ → X be the universal cover of the underlying space of X. It follows easily from classical properties of lifting maps to covering spaces that for any point ẽ in X̃ with pẽ = e there is a unique structure of topological group on X̃ such that ẽ is th...
متن کاملSpaces of Maps into Classifying Spaces for Equivariant Crossed Complexes, II: The General Topological Group Case
The results of a previous paper on the equivariant homotopy theory of crossed complexes are generalised from the case of a discrete group to general topological groups. The principal new ingredient necessary for this is an analysis of homotopy coherence theory for crossed complexes, using detailed results on the appropriate Eilenberg–Zilber theory, and of its relation to simplicial homotopy coh...
متن کامل(co-)homology Theories for Commutative (s-)algebras
The aim of this paper is to give an overview of some of the existing homology theories for commutative (S-)algebras. We do not claim any originality; nor do we pretend to give a complete account. But the results in that field are widely spread in the literature, so for someone who does not actually work in that subject, it can be difficult to trace all the relationships between the different ho...
