The RO(G)-graded Serre Spectral Sequence

Kronholm, William C., 1980- 06 1900 (has links)
x, 72 p. A print copy of this thesis is available through the UO Libraries. Search the library catalog for the location and call number. / The theory of equivariant homology and cohomology was first created by Bredon in his 1967 paper and has since been developed and generalized by May, Lewis, Costenoble, and a host of others. However, there has been a notable lack of computations done. In this paper, a version of the Serre spectral sequence of a fibration is developed for RO ( G )-graded equivariant cohomology of G -spaces for finite groups G . This spectral sequence is then used to compute cohomology of projective bundles and certain loop spaces. In addition, the cohomology of Rep( G )-complexes, with appropriate coefficients, is shown to always be free. As an application, the cohomology of real projective spaces and some Grassmann manifolds are computed, with an eye towards developing a theory of equivariant characteristic classes. / Adviser: Daniel Dugger

Convergence asymptotique des niveaux de temps quasi-concaves dans un espace temps à courbure constante / Asymptomatic convergence of level sets of quasi-concave times in a space-time of constant curvature

Belraouti, Mehdi 20 June 2013 (has links)
Dans cette thèse, nous nous intéressons aux espaces temps dit globalement hyperboliques Cauchy compacts. Ce sont des espaces temps qui admettent une fonction, dite fonction temps de Cauchy, propre qui croit strictement le long des courbes causales inextensibles. Les niveaux de telles fonctions sont des hypersurfaces de type espace appelées hypersurfaces de Cauchy. La donnée d'une fonction temps définit naturellement une famille à 1-paramètres d'espaces métriques. Notre but est d'étudier le comportement asymptomatique de ces familles d'espaces métriques Il y a deux cas de figure à considérer : le premier étant le comportement asymptomatique dans le passé ; le deuxième est celui du comportement asymptomatique dans le futur. Plus de conditions géométriques sur l'espace temps et les fonctions temps à considérer seront nécessaires / In this thesis we're interested in globally hyperbolic Cauchy compact space-times. These are space-times that possess a proper function, called Cauchy time function, which ist strictly increasing along inextensible causal curves. A Cauchy time function defines naturally a 1-parameter family of metric spaces. One asks the natural and important question of the asymptomatic behaviour of this family with respect to the time : when time goes to 0 and when it goes towards infinity. Of course additional geometric condition on the space-ime and the time function will be necessary for a more appropriate study
