    Abstract

    Let V be a cofibrantly generated closed symmetric monoidal model category and
    M a model V-category. We say that a weighted colimit W*D of a diagram D
    weighted by W is a homotopy weighted colimit if the diagram D is pointwise
    cofibrant and the weight W is cofibrant in the projective model structure on
    [C^op,V]. We then proceed to describe such homotopy weighted colimits through
    homotopy tensors and ordinary (conical) homotopy colimits. This is a homotopy
    version of the well known isomorphism W*D=\int^C(W\tensor D).

  2. A generalization of Thom's transversality theorem.

    Abstract

    We prove a generalization of Thom's transversality theorem. It gives
    conditions under which the jet map $f_*|_Y:Y\subseteq J^r(D,M)\ra J^r(D,N)$ is
    generically (for $f:M\ra N$) transverse to a submanifold $Z\subseteq J^r(D,N)$.
    We apply this to study transversality properties of a restriction of a fixed
    map $g:M\ra P$ to the preimage $(j^sf)^{-1}(A)$ of a submanifold $A\subseteq
    J^s(M,N)$ in terms of transversality properties of the original map $f$.

  3. Fibrations up to an equivalence, homotopy colimits and pullbacks.

    Authors: Lukáš Vokřínek

    Abstract

    We gather conditions on a class H of continuous maps of topological spaces
    that allow a reasonable theory of fibrations up to an equivalence (a map from
    this class) which we call H-fibrations. The weak homotopy equivalences recover
    quasifibrations and homology equivalences yield homology fibrations. We study
    local H-fibrations that behave nicely with respect to homotopy colimits
    together with universal H-fibrations that behave nicely with respect to
    pullbacks. We then proceed to classify H-fibrations up to a natural notion of
    equivalence.
