On integral Chang-Skjelbred computations with disconnected isotropy groups

Algebraic Topology 2024-07-04 v1

Abstract

The Chang-Skjelbred method computes the cohomology of a suitable space with a torus action from its equivariant one-skeleton. We show that, under certain restrictions on the cohomological torsion, the integral cohomology is encoded in the one-skeleton even in the presence of arbitrary disconnected isotropy groups. We provide applications to Hamiltonian actions as well as to the GKM case. In the latter, our results lead to a modification of the GKM formula for graph cohomology.
