We discuss links in thickened surfaces. We define the Khovanov–Lipshitz–Sarkar stable homotopy type and the Steenrod square for the homotopical Khovanov homology of links in thickened surfaces with genus [Formula: see text]. A surface means a closed oriented surface unless otherwise stated. Of course, a surface may or may not be the sphere. A thickened surface means a product manifold of a surface and the interval. A link in a thickened surface (respectively, a 3-manifold) means a submanifold of a thickened surface (respectively, a 3-manifold) which is diffeomorphic to a disjoint collection of circles. Our Khovanov–Lipshitz–Sarkar stable homotopy type and our Steenrod square of links in thickened surfaces with genus [Formula: see text] are stronger than the homotopical Khovanov homology of links in thickened surfaces with genus [Formula: see text]. It is the first meaningful Khovanov–Lipshitz–Sarkar stable homotopy type of links in 3-manifolds other than the 3-sphere. We point out that our theory has a different feature in the torus case.

Let [Formula: see text] be a closed oriented surface of genus [Formula: see text] and let [Formula: see text] be the mapping class group. When the genus is at least 3, [Formula: see text] can be generated by torsion elements. We prove the following results: For [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] can be generated by four torsion elements. Three generators are involutions and the fourth one is an order three element. [Formula: see text] can be generated by five torsion elements. Four generators are involutions and the fifth one is an order three element.

Let [Formula: see text] be the closed-oriented surface of genus [Formula: see text] and let [Formula: see text] be the extended mapping class group of [Formula: see text]. When the genus is at least 5, we prove that [Formula: see text] can be generated by two torsion elements. One of these generators is of order [Formula: see text], and the other one is of order [Formula: see text].

We define a global linear operator that projects holomorphic modular forms defined on the Siegel upper half space of genus [Formula: see text] to all the rational boundaries of lower degrees. This global operator reduces to Siegel's [Formula: see text] operator when considering only the maximal standard cusps of degree [Formula: see text]. One advantage of this generalization is that it allows us to give a general notion of cusp forms in genus [Formula: see text] and to bridge this new notion with the classical one found in the literature.

SynopsisThe special unitary group SU(n) has the stable homotopy type of a wedge of n − 1 finite complexes. The ‘first’ of these complexes is ΣℂPn–1, which is well known to be indecomposable at the prime 2 whether n is finite or infinite. We show that the ‘second’ finite complex is again indecomposable at the prime 2 when n is finite, but splits into a wedge of two pieces when n is infinite.

Let α be a real vector bundle over a finite CW complex X and let T(α;X) be its associated Thorn complex. We propose to study the S-type (stable homotopy type) of Thorn complexes in the framework of the Atiyah-Adams J-Theory. Therefore we focus our attention on the group JR(X) which is defined to be the group of orthogonal sphere bundles over X modulo stable fiber homotopy equivalence.

AbstractAn n-dimensional analogue of the Klein bottle arose in our study of topological complexity of planar polygon spaces. We determine its integral cohomology algebra and stable homotopy type, and give an explicit immersion and embedding in Euclidean space.
