The main result of this announcement is a formula for the tensor product of the class of a homogeneous line bundle with a Schubert class, expressed as a K(X)-linear combination of Schubert classes. We believe that this formula is the most…

We prove that Ad-semisimple conjugacy classes in a connected Lie group $G$ are closed embedded submanifolds of $G$. We also prove that if $\alpha:H\to G$ is a homomorphism of connected Lie groups such that the kernel of $\alpha$ is discrete…

Generalizing deformation quantizations with separation of variables of a K\"ahler manifold $M$, we adopt Fedosov's gluing argument to construct a category $\mathsf{DQ}$, enriched over sheaves of $\mathbb{C}[[\hbar]]$-modules on $M$, as a…

Given a closed symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$ we introduce a certain quantity associated to a tuple of conjugacy classes in the universal cover of the group ${\hbox{\it Ham}} (M,\omega)$ by means of the Hofer metric on ${\hbox{\it Ham}}…

Let G be a compact connected Lie group, and (M,\omega) a Hamiltonian G-space with proper moment map \mu. We give a surjectivity result which expresses the K-theory of the symplectic quotient M//G in terms of the equivariant K-theory of the…

We describe a class of real Banach manifolds, which classify $K^{-1}$. These manifolds are Grassmannians of (hermitian) lagrangian subspaces in a complex Hilbert space. Certain finite codimensional real subvarieties described by incidence…

Let mathcal{O}_lambda be a generic coadjoint orbit of a compact semi-simple Lie group K. Weight varieties are the symplectic reductions of mathcal{O}_lambda by the maximal torus T in K. We use a theorem of Tolman and Weitsman to compute the…

The twisted equivariant K-theory given by Freed and Moore is a K-theory which unifies twisted equivariant complex K-theory, Atiyah's `Real' K-theory, and their variants. In a general setting, we formulate this K-theory by using Fredholm…

In the present paper we propose some generalization of the topological Brauer group that includes higher homotopical information and contains the classical one as a direct summand. Our approach is based on some kind of bundle-like objects…

We prove that for torsion-free amenable ample groupoids, an isomorphism in groupoid homology induced by an \'etale correspondence yields an isomorphism in the K-theory of the associated $\mathrm{C}^\ast$-algebras. We apply this to extend X.…

For an almost simple complex algebraic group $G$ with affine Grassmannian $Gr_G= G(C((t)))/G(C[[t]])$ we consider the equivariant homology $H^{G(C[[t]])}(Gr_G)$, and $K$-theory $K^{G(C[[t]])}(Gr_G)$. They both have a commutative ring…

Every principal G-bundle is classified up to equivalence by a homotopy class of maps into the classifying space of G. On the other hand, for every nice topological space Milnor constructed a strict model of loop space, that is a group.…

We consider a class of quasi-Hopf algebras which we call \emph{generalized twisted quantum doubles}. They are abelian extensions $H = \mb{C}[\bar{G}] \bowtie \mb{C}[G]$ ($G$ is a finite group and $\bar{G}$ a homomorphic image), possibly…

We compare the K-theories of symplectic quotients with respect to a compact connected Lie group and with respect to its maximal torus, and in particular we give a method for computing the former in terms of the latter. More specifically,…

We study the equivariant oriented cohomology ring $h_T(G/P)$ of partial flag varieties using the moment map approach. We define the right Hecke action on this cohomology ring, and then prove that the respective Bott-Samelson classes in…

This paper continues our investigation into the question of when a homotopy $\omega = \{\omega_t\}_{t \in [0,1]}$ of 2-cocycles on a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ gives rise to an isomorphism of the $K$-theory groups of…

We show the q-analog of a well-known result of Farahat and Higman: in the center of the Iwahori-Hecke algebra $H_{n,q}$, if $(a_{\lambda\mu}^{\nu}(n,q))_\nu$ is the set of structure constants involved in the product of two Geck-Rouquier…

We provide a geometric interpretation for the connecting homomorphism in the localization sequence of Hermitian $K$-theory. As an application, we compute the Hermitian $K$-theory of projective bundles and Grassmannians in the regular case.…

We introduce a homology theory for k-graphs and explore its fundamental properties. We establish connections with algebraic topology by showing that the homology of a k-graph coincides with the homology of its topological realisation as…

The moduli space for a flat G-bundle over the two-torus is completely determined by its holonomy representation. When G is compact, connected, and simply connected, we show that the moduli space is homeomorphic to a product of two tori mod…
