TLDR
In this article, an obstruction theory is developed to decide when an isomorphism of rational cohomology can be realized by a rational homotopy equivalence (either between rationally nilpotent spaces, or between commutative graded differential algebras).

Braid group actions on derived categories of coherent sheaves

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors give a construction of braid group actions on coherent sheaves on a variety of manifolds and show that these actions are always faithful when the manifold is smooth.

Braid group actions on derived categories of coherent sheaves

TL;DR: In this article, the authors give a construction of braid group actions on coherent sheaves on a variety of manifolds and show that these actions are always faithful when the manifold is an elliptic curve.

Homotopy Limits, Completions and Localizations

TL;DR: The main purpose of part I of these notes is to develop for a ring R a functional notion of R-completion of a space X, which coincides up to homotopy with the p-profinite completion of Quillen and Sullivan as mentioned in this paper.

Rational homotopy theory

TL;DR: The rational homotopy groups tensored with Q were studied in this paper, where it was shown that the torsion of these groups is not a strong predictor of the rationality of the groups.
