Classical Obstructions and S-algebras
نویسنده
چکیده
Classical obstruction theory can be applied to the problem of finding an S-algebra structure, or a commutative S-algebra structure, on a ring spectrum. It is shown that there is no obstruction to upgrading the homotopy unit in the ring spectrum to a strict unit in the S-algebra.

Twisted Actions and Obstructions in Group Cohomology
This article is intended to answer the question “Why do you guys always want to twist everything?” We review the various ways in which twists, twisted actions and twisted crossed products arise, and then discuss some cohomological obstructions to the existence and triviality of twisted actions. Our review begins with the classical problems of classifying group extensions and irreducible unitary...
متن کاملCohomology and Obstructions: Commutative Algebras
Associated with each of the classical cohomology theories in algebra has been a theory relating H (H as classically numbered) to obstructions to non-singular extensions and H with coefficients in a “center” to the non-singular extension theory (see [Eilenberg & MacLane (1947), Hochschild (1947), Hochschild (1954), MacLane (1958), Shukla (1961), Harrison (1962)]). In this paper we carry out the ...
متن کاملOn the AF Embeddability of Crossed Products of AF Algebras by the Integers
This paper is concerned with the question of when the crossed product of an AF algebra by an action of Z is itself AF embeddable. It is well known that quasidiagonality and stable finiteness are hereditary properties. That is, if A and B are C-algebras with A ⊂ B and B has either of these properties, then so does A. Since AF algebras enjoy both of these properties we have that quasidiagonality ...
متن کاملOn Lie induction and the exceptional series
Lie bialgebras occur as the principal objects in the infinitesimalisation of the theory of quantum groups—the semi-classical theory. Their relationship with the quantum theory has made available some new tools that we can apply to classical questions. In this paper, we study the simple complex Lie algebras using the double-bosonisation construction of Majid. This construction expresses algebrai...
متن کاملOn some Hochschild cohomology classes of fusion algebras
The obstructions for an arbitrary fusion algebra to be a fusion algebra of some semisimple monoidal category are constructed. Those obstructions lie in groups which are closely related to the Hochschild cohomology of fusion algebras with coefficients in the K-theory of the ground (algebraically closed) field. The special attention is devoted to the case of fusion algebra of invariants of finite...
