In this paper, we construct proper pushforwards and flat pullbacks in Chow groups of coherent sheaf stacks over a Deligne-Mumford(DM) stack. When there is a relative semi-perfect obstruction theory for a DM-type morphism $X \to Y$, $X$ is a…

We consider virtual pullbacks in $K$-theory, and show that they are bivariant classes and satisfy certain functoriality. As applications to $K$-theoretic counting invariants, we include proofs of a virtual localization formula for schemes…

We introduce a method of constructing the virtual cycle of any scheme associated with a tangent-obstruction complex. We apply this method to constructing the virtual moduli cycle of the moduli of stable maps from n-pointed genus g curves to…

Let $p:F\to G$ be a morphism of stacks of positive \emph{virtual} relative dimension $k$ and let $\gamma\in H^k(F)$. We give sufficient conditions for $p_*\gamma\cdot[F]^{virt}$ to be a multiple of $[G]^{virt}$. We apply this result to show…

This is the third in a series of works devoted to constructing virtual structure sheaves and $K$-theoretic invariants in moduli theory. The central objects of study are almost perfect obstruction theories, introduced by Y.-H. Kiem and the…

Narasihman and Ramanan proved that an arbitrary connection in a vector bundle over a base space B can be obtained as the pull-back (via a correctly chosen classifying map from B into the appropriate Grassmannian) of the universal connection…

In this article, we introduce fundamental notions and results about pullback formalisms, building on work of Drew-Gallauer. Our main application is producing a pullback formalism $\mathbf{SH}^{\mathrm{hol}}$ that encodes a version of…

This paper provides some technical results needed in "Formalism for Relative Gromov-Witten Invariants." We study line-bundles on the moduli stacks of relative stable and rubber maps that are used to define relative Gromov-Witten invariants…

Given a quasi-projective scheme M over complex numbers equipped with a perfect obstruction theory and a morphism to a nonsingular quasi-projective variety B, we show it is possible to find an affine bundle M'/ M that admits a perfect…

We construct virtual fundamental classes in all intersection theories including Chow theory, K-theory and algebraic cobordism for quasi-projective Deligne-Mumford stacks with perfect obstruction theories and prove the virtual pullback…

We develop a new approach to the pulling back fixed point theorem of W. Browder and use it in order to prove various generalizations of this result.

Let X be a smooth projective Deligne-Mumford stack over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0. In this paper we construct the moduli stack of very twisted stable maps, extending the notion of twisted stable maps by Abramovich…

We construct Gromov-Witten invariants of general symplectic manifolds.

Let $Y$ be the zero loci of a regular section of a convex vector bundle $E$ over $X$. We provide a new proof of a conjecture of Cox, Katz and Lee for the virtual class of the genus zero moduli of stable maps to $Y$. This in turn yields the…

We approach Gathmann's virtual pushforward property from the perspective of bivariant intersection theory, extend a virtual pushforward result of Manolache, and use our extension to deduce a result of Gathmann relating relative and rubber…

We introduce a geometric completion of the stack of maps from stable marked curves to the quotient stack [point/GL(1)], and use it to construct some gauge-theoretic analogues of the Gromov-Witten invariants. We also indicate the…

We define a new perverse t-exact pullback operation on derived categories of constructible sheaves which generalizes most perverse t-exact functors in sheaf theory, such as microlocalization, the Fourier-Sato transform and vanishing cycles.…

We collect geometric properties of the all-genus real Gromov-Witten theory and provide updates on its development since its introduction in 2015. We bring attention to a modification of the original construction of this theory which is…

We study pullback from a topological viewpoint with emphasis on pullback of covering maps. We generalize a triad of Quillen on properties of the pullback functor.

For any smooth projective variety with a C* action, we reduce the problem of computing its Gromov-Witten invariants to the similar problem for its fixed locus. Starting from the stacky version of variation of GIT for our variety, we…
