  1. On the splitting of polynomial functors.

    Authors: Roman Mikhailov
    Subjects: Algebraic Topology
    Abstract

    We develop methods for proving that certain extensions of polynomial functors
    do not split naturally. As an application we give a functorial description of
    the third and the fourth stable homotopy groups of the classifying spaces of
    free abelian groups.

  2. Symmetric ideals in group rings and simplicial homotopy.

    Authors: Roman Mikhailov, Jie Wu, Inder Bir S. Passi
    Subjects: Group Theory
    Abstract

    In this paper homotopical methods for the description of subgroups determined
    by ideals in group rings are introduced. It is shown that in certain cases the
    subgroups determined by symmetric product of ideals in group rings can be
    described with the help of homotopy groups of spheres.

  3. On the homology of the dual de Rham complex.

    Authors: Roman Mikhailov
    Subjects: Algebraic Topology
    Abstract

    We study the homology of the dual de Rham complex as functors on the category
    of abelian groups. We give a description of homology of the dual de Rham
    complex up to degree 7 for free abelian groups and present a corrected version
    of the proof of Jean's computations of the zeroth homology group.

  4. Derived functors of non-additive functors and homotopy theory.

    Authors: Roman Mikhailov, Lawrence Breen
    Subjects: Algebraic Topology
    Abstract

    We develop a functorial approach to the study of the homotopy groups of
    spheres and Moore spaces $M(A,n)$, based on the Curtis spectral sequence and
    the decomposition of Lie functors as iterates of simpler functors such as the
    symmetric or exterior algebra functors. The discussion takes place over the
    integers, and includes a functorial description of the derived functors of
    certain Lie algebra functors, as well as of all the main cubical functors (such
    as the degree 3 component $SP^3$ of the symmetric algebra functor).

  5. On homotopy groups of the suspended classifying spaces.

    Authors: Roman Mikhailov, Jie Wu
    Subjects: Algebraic Topology
    Abstract

    In this paper, we determine the homotopy groups $\pi_4(\Sigma K(G,1))$,
    $\pi_5(\Sigma K(G,1))$ and $\pi_5(\Sigma^2K(G,1))$ for different groups $G$ by
    using different facts and methods from group theory and homotopy theory:
    derived functors, the Carlsson simplicial construction, the Baues-Goerss
    spectral sequence, homotopy decompositions and the methods of algebraic
    K-theory.
