On families of nilpotent subgroups and associated coset posets
Simon Gritschacher, Bernardo Villarreal
We study some properties of the coset poset associated with the family of subgroups of class of a nilpotent group of class . We prove that under certain assumption…
Commuting matrices and Atiyah's Real K-theory
Simon Gritschacher, Markus Hausmann
We describe the -equivariant homotopy type of the space of commuting n-tuples in the stable unitary group in terms of Real K-theory. The result is used to give a complete calc…
Classifying spaces for commutativity of low-dimensional Lie groups
Omar Antolín-Camarena, Simon Gritschacher, Bernardo Villarreal
For each of the groups , we compute the integral and -cohomology rings of (the classifying space for commutativity of ), th…
A remark on the group-completion theorem
Simon Gritschacher
Suppose that is a topological monoid satisfying to which the McDuff-Segal group-completion theorem applies. This implies that a certain map $f: \mathbb{M}_{\i…
