On the notion of geometric realization

We explain why geometric realization commutes with Cartesian products and why the geometric realization of a simplicial set (resp. cyclic set) is equipped with an action of the group of orientation…

Commutative simplicial bundles

In this paper we introduce a simplicial analogue of principal bundles with commutativity structure and their classifying spaces defined for topological groups. Our construction is a variation of the…

An elementary illustrated introduction to simplicial sets

This is an expository introduction to simplicial sets and simplicial homotopy theory with particular focus on relating the combinatorial aspects of the theory to their geometric/topological origins.…

ON THE ADJUNCTION BETWEEN GEOMETRIC REALISATION AND SINGULAR SET

These are expository notes on simplicial sets. It contains a proof that geometric realisation of a simplicial set and singular set are adjoint functors; and that the full and diagonal realisation of…

Configurations, braids, and homotopy groups

The main results of this article are certain connections between braid groups and the homotopy groups of the 2-sphere. The connections are given in terms of Brunnian braids over the disk and over the…

Steenrod squares in signed simplicial sets

The cup-i products in semi-simplicial sets are developed following the work in [1]. The category of signed simplicial sets is presented, and using the cup-i product formulas, we find an operation in…

On the Geometry of 2-Categories and their Classifying Spaces

In this paper we prove that realizations of geometric nerves are classifying spaces for 2-categories. This result is particularized to strict monoidal categories and it is also used to obtain a…

ON THE EQUIVALENCE OF TWO SINGULAR HOMOLOGY THEORIES

Eilenberg in 1944 ([E])2 removed some of the difficulties associated with the classical concept of "singular cell" and obtained a new singular homology theory. In 1948, Hurewicz, Dugundji, and Dowker…
