Homotopy theory is an important sub-field of algebraic topology. It is mainly concerned with the properties and structures of spaces which are invariant under homotopy. Chief among these are the homotopy groups of spaces, specifically those of spheres. Homotopy theory includes a broad set of ideas and techniques, such as cohomology theories, spectra and stable homotopy theory, model categories, spectral sequences, and classifying spaces.

The key step in Serre's method on higher homotopy groups
Let $n \geq 2$ and $X$ be a $(n-1)$-connected simplicial complex. This means that all of the lower homotopy groups $\pi_{k}(X) = 0$ for $k \leq n-1$. My goal is to compute the higher homotopy groups o …

(Lower) homotopy groups from triangulations
Both cohomology and homotopy groups capture global topological information of a manifold $X$. It is interesting to ask if they can be computed from local data. A triangulation $T$ is a natural present …

Khovanov $A_\infty$ algebra
Let $L$ be a link in $\mathbb{R}^3$, with $D, D'$ be diagrams in
$\mathbb{R}^2$ representing $L$. Khovanov constructed two graded
chain complexes $$C_{D} = (Ch_{D}, d_{D}) \quad C_{D'}=(Ch_{D'},
d_{D' …

Obstruction of smooth structure
The first 24 lectures of Jacob Lurie on Geometric Topology [1]
gave a concise introduction to the comparison of smooth manifolds
and piecewise-linear manifold. In the first five lectures, it is
shown …

Definition of an n-category
What's the standard definition, if any, of an $n$-category as of 2020? The literature I can tap into is quite limited, but I'll try my best to list what I had so far.
In [Lei2001], Leinster demonstrat …

Cohomology without comonad?
TL;DR. Many cohomologies can be unified using comonads. Question: which cohomologies cannot be?
For each algebraic theory, there is an adjunction, and therefore a (co)monad (or called a (co)triple). …

All functors "are" left adjoints, and applications?
Throughout this thread, let us assume smallness.
All functors "are" left adjoints
Let $D \xrightarrow{F} C$ be any functor, which induces
$$ D \xrightarrow{F} \hat{C}$$

Do (co)density (co)monadic constructions stablize?
Under good conditions [1], any functor $F: C \to D$ induces a codensity monad $T: D \to D$ as a right Kan extension of $F$ along itself. It does not say explicitly, but by considering left/right Kan e …

Kan fibrant replacement for a sphere
To compute the simplicial homotopy group of a space $X$, we find a Kan fibrant replacement $X \to Y$ and calculate for that for $Y$, which can be implemented in a computer program.
Computing homotopy …
