On invariants of foliated sphere bundles

Sam Nariman

Morita showed that for each power of the Euler class, there are examples of flat -bundles for which the power of the Euler class does not vanish. Haefliger asked if t…

The free factor complex and the dualizing module for the automorphism group of a free group

Zachary Himes, Jeremy Miller, Sam Nariman +1

Answering a question of Hatcher-Vogtmann, we prove that the top homology group of the free factor complex is not the dualizing module for , at least for .

Thurston's fragmentation and c-principles

Sam Nariman

In this paper, we generalize the original idea of Thurston for the so called Mather-Thurston's theorem for foliated bundles to prove new variants of this theorem for PL homeomorphi…

Topological aspects of the dynamical moduli space of rational maps

Maxime Bergeron, Khashayar Filom, Sam Nariman

We investigate the topology of the space of Möbius conjugacy classes of degree rational maps on the Riemann sphere. We show that it is rationally acyclic and we compute its fun…

A local to global argument on low dimensional manifolds

Sam Nariman

For an oriented manifold whose dimension is less than , we use the contractibility of certain complexes associated to its submanifolds to cut into simpler pieces in orde…

On the moduli space of flat symplectic surface bundles

Sam Nariman

In this paper, we prove homological stability of symplectomorphisms and extended hamiltonians of surfaces made discrete. We construct an isomorphism from the stable homology group…

Braid groups and discrete diffeomorphisms of the punctured disk

Sam Nariman

We show that the group cohomology of the diffeomorphisms of the disk with punctures has the cohomology of the braid group of strands as the summand. As an application of th…

Stable homology of surface diffeomorphism groups made discrete

Sam Nariman

We answer affirmatively a question posed by Morita on homological stability of surface diffeomorphisms made discrete. In particular, we prove that -diffeomorphisms and…

Homological stability and stable moduli of flat manifold bundles

Sam Nariman

We prove that group homology of the diffeomorphism group of as a discrete group is independent of in a range, provided that . This answers the high d…
