Moduli space of boundary maps with prescribed chain and homology groups?

Let $R$ be a reasonable ring (maybe I mean a PID, or $\mathbb{Z}$, and when sufficiently desperate, a field). Now consider fixed sequences $C_n$ and $H_n$ of $R$-modules, which are tame in every ...

Other examples of computations using transfer of structure from the chains to the homology?

There is a `long' history of transfer (up to homotopy!) of algebraic structure from a dg _ algebra A to its homology H(A) (e.g. Kadeishvili for the associative case and Heubschmann for the Lie case). ...

A-infinity structure on the ribbon graph complex and more general graph complexes

Moduli spaces of curves (with nonempty boundary or at least one marked point) admit cell decompositions in which the cells are labelled by ribbon graphs. In fact, the moduli space of normalised ...
