Homotopy commutativity in Hermitian symmetric spaces
Daisuke Kishimoto, Masahiro Takeda, Yichen Tong
Ganea proved that the loop space of is homotopy commutative if and only if . We generalize this result to that the loop spaces of all irreducible Hermitian sym…
Cohomology of the spaces of commuting elements in Lie groups of rank two
Masahiro Takeda
Let be the classical group, and let Hom denote the space of commuting -tuples in . Baird proved that the cohomology of Hom is identifi…
Spaces of commuting elements in the classical groups
Daisuke Kishimoto, Masahiro Takeda
Let be the classical group, and let Hom denote the space of commuting -tuples in . First, we refine the formula for the Poincaré series of Hom$(\mathbb{…
Cohomology of the classifying spaces of -gauge groups over the 2-sphere
Masahiro Takeda
A gauge group is the topological group of automorphisms of a principal bundle. We compute the integral cohomology ring of the classifying spaces of gauge groups of principal U(n)-b…
