Motivic characteristic classes of possibly singular algebraic varieties are homology class versions of motivic characteristics, not classes in the so-called motivic (co)homology. This paper is a survey on them with more emphasis on…

We introduce Hochschild (co-)homology of morphisms of schemes or analytic spaces and study its fundamental properties. In analogy with the cotangent complex we introduce the so called (derived) Hochschild complex of a morphism; the…

Let G be a real Lie group and H a lattice or, more generally, a closed subgroup of finite covolume in G. We show that the unitary representation lambda_{G/H} of G on L^2(G/H) has a spectral gap, that is, the restriction of lambda_{G/H} to…

Prolongations of a group extension can be studied in a more general situation that we call group extensions of the co-type of a crossed module. Cohomology classification of such extensions is obtained by applying the obstruction theory of…

We show that the hypercohomology of the Chevalley-Eilenberg-de Rham complex of a Lie algebroid L over a scheme with coefficients in an L-module can be expressed as a derived functor. We use this fact to study a Hochschild-Serre type…

A cohomology theory, associated to a $n$-Lie algebra and a representation space of it, is introduced. It is observed that this cohomology theory is qualified to encode the generalized derivation extensions, and that it coincides, for $n=3$,…

We study the symmetry classes of graphene quantum dots, both open and closed, through the conductance and energy level statistics. For abrupt termination of the lattice, these properties are well described by the standard orthogonal and…

Let $M$ be a closed connected smooth manifold and $G=\textmd{Diff}_0(M)$ denote the connected component of the diffeomorphism group of $M$ containing the identity. The natural action of $G$ on $M$ induces the trace homomorphism on homology.…

We examine the topological characteristic cohomology classes of complexified vector bundles. In particular, all the classes coming from the real vector bundles underlying the complexification are determined.

In the first chapters, this paper contains a survey on the theory of ordinary characters of finite reductive groups with non-connected centre. The last chapters are devoted to the proof of Lusztig's conjecture on characteristic functions of…

We introduce the class of split regular Hom-Lie color algebras as the natural generalization of split Lie color algebras. By developing techniques of connections of roots for this kind of algebras, we show that such a split regular Hom-Lie…

Let G be a group which is topologically a CW-complex, BG a classifying space for G, and A a discrete abelian group. To a central extension of G by A, one can associate a cohomology class in $H^2(BG,A)$. We show this association is…

A d-bar-analogue of differential characters for complex manifolds is introduced and studied using a new theory of homological spark complexes. Many essentially different spark complexes are shown to have isomorphic groups of spark classes.…

A new family of asymmetric matrices of Walsh-Hadamard type is introduced. We study their properties and, in particular, compute their determinants and discuss their eigenvalues. The invertibility of these matrices implies that certain…

This paper gives an introduction and overview about recent developments on the interaction of the theories of characteristic classes and mixed Hodge theory for singular spaces in the complex algebraic context. It uses M. Saito's deep theory…

For a split reductive group defined over a number field, we first introduce the notations of arithmetic torsors and arithmetic Higgs torsors. Then we construct arithmetic characteristic curves associated to arithmetic Higgs torsors, based…

Let G be a connected reductive group over a non-archimedean local field. We say that an irreducible depth-zero (complex) G-representation is non-singular if its cuspidal support is non-singular. We establish a Local Langlands Correspondence…

An automorphism of a building is called uniclass if the Weyl distance between any chamber and its image lies in a unique (twisted) conjugacy class of the Coxeter group. In a previous paper we characterised uniclass automorphisms of…

Let G be a reductive linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0. A subgroup of G is said to be separable in G if its global and infinitesimal centralizers have the same dimension. We study the…

Recently, a strong exponential character bound has been established in [3] for all elements $g \in \mathbf{G}^F$ of a finite reductive group $\mathbf{G}^F$ which satisfy the condition that the centraliser $C_{\mathbf{G}}(g)$ is contained in…
