Symmetries of exotic spheres via complex and quaternionic Mahowald invariants

Boris Botvinnik, J. D. Quigley

We use new homotopy-theoretic tools to prove the existence of smooth - and -actions on infinite families of exotic spheres. Such families of spheres are propagated by…

Homotopy invariance of the space of metrics with positive scalar curvature on manifolds with singularities

Boris Botvinnik, Mark Walsh

In this paper we study manifolds, , with fibred singularities, more specifically, a relevant space of Riemannian metrics with positive scalar cur…

Infinite loop spaces and positive scalar curvature

Boris Botvinnik, Johannes Ebert, Oscar Randal-Williams

We study the homotopy type of the space of metrics of positive scalar curvature on high-dimensional compact spin manifolds. Hitchin used the fact that there are no harmonic spinors…

The moduli space of generalized Morse functions

Boris Botvinnik, Ib Madsen

We study the moduli and determine a homotopy type of the space of all generalized Morse functions on d-manifolds for given d. This moduli space is closely connected to the moduli s…
