fresh_webs: Freshwater stream webs
A set of 26 networks of trophic-level species interactions in streams in New Zealand, Maine and North Carolina. Networks include the identities of aquatic insect, algae and fish species and their trophic interactions. Excel and plain text adjacency matrices available; webs can be downloaded individually or as a group.
This network has 86 nodes and 353 edges.

Geometric Constructions of Mod $p$ Cohomology Operations
The Brown Representability Theorem implies that cohomology operations can be represented by continuous maps between Eilenberg-Maclane spaces. These Eilenberg-Maclane spaces have explicit geometric models as spaces of cycles on round spheres and spaces of relative cycles on unit disks, due to the Almgren Isomorphism Theorem. A. Nabutovsky asked what maps between spaces of cycles represent the Steenrod squares. In this work we answer this question by constructing maps with explicit formulas fro…
