We compute (algebraically) the Euler characteristic of a complex of sheaves with constructible cohomology. A stratified Poincar\'e-Hopf formula is then a consequence of the smooth Poincar\'e-Hopf theorem and of additivity of the…
Two automorphisms of a simple stable AF algebra with a finite dimensional lattice of lower semicontinuous traces are shown to be outer conjugate if they act in the same way on the K-group and the extremal traces are scaled by numbers which…
We derive explicit formulas for the Frobenius-Hecke traces of the etale cohomology of certain strata of Kottwitz varieties (which are certain compact unitary type Shimura varieties considered by Kottwitz), in terms of automorphic…
We study some integral model of P.E.L. Shimura varieties of type A for ramified primes. Precisely, we look at the Pappas-Rapoport model (or splitting model) of some unitary Shimura varieties for which there is ramification in the degree 2…
For a family of varieties, we prove that the alternating sum of the traces of "local" monodromy acting on the $\ell$-adic \'etale cohomology groups of the generic fiber is an integer which is independent of $\ell$.
In this paper we suggest a new general formalism for studying the invariants of polyhedra and manifolds comming from the theory of von Neumann algebras. First, we examine generality in which one may apply the construction of the extended…
We propose a definition of an Euler characteristic for unbounded chain complexes by taking the (usual) Euler characteristics of successively longer parts of the complex, weighted inversely proportional to the length, and passing to the…
We give a simple proof for the rigidity of a complex in the bounded derived category of sheaves with constructible cohomology on an abelian variety.
Given two pure representations of the absolute Galois group of an $\ell$-adic number field with coefficients in $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}_p$ (with $\ell\neq p$), we show that the Frobenius-semisimplifications of the associated Weil--Deligne…
Let $A$ be an abelian variety and $G$ a finite group of automorphisms of $A$ fixing the origin such that $A/G$ is smooth. The quotient $A/G$ can be seen as a fibration over an abelian variety whose fibers are isomorphic to a product of…
We survey old and new results about the cohomology of the moduli space $A_g$ of principally polarized abelian varieties of genus $g$ and its compactifications. The main emphasis lies on the computation of the cohomology for small genus and…
A natural generalization of Krein's theorem to a pair of commuting tuples $\left(H_1^0,H_2^0\right)$ and $\left(H_1,H_2\right)$ of bounded self-adjoint operators in a separable Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ with $H_j-H_j^0 = V_j\in…
In this paper we give a trace formula for Hecke operators acting on the cohomology of a Fuchsian group of finite covolume, with coefficients in a module $V$. The proof is based on constructing an operator whose trace on $V$ equals the…
We prove an enumerative formula for the algebraic Euler characteristic of Brill-Noether varieties, parametrizing degree d and rank r linear series on a general genus g curve, with ramification profiles specified at up to two general points.…
We discuss various lifting and reduction problems for bundles and gerbes in the context of a strict Lie 2-group. We obtain a geometrical formulation (and a new proof) for the exactness of Breen's long exact sequence in non-abelian…
We prove an A'Campo type formula for the tame monodromy zeta function of a smooth and proper variety over a discretely valued field $K$. As a first application, we relate the orders of the tame monodromy eigenvalues on the $\ell$-adic…
Zagier proved that the traces of singular values of the classical j-invariant are the Fourier coefficients of a weight 3/2 modular form and Duke provided a new proof of the result by establishing an exact formula for the traces using…
In this paper, we investigate non-abelian extensions and inducibility of pairs of automorphisms of Lie triple systems. First, we introduce non-abelian cohomology groups and classify the non-abelian extensions in terms of non-abelian…
Using cohomological methods, we prove a criterion for the embedding of a group extension with abelian kernel into the split extension of a co-induced module. This generalises some earlier similar results. We also prove an assertion about…
We establish a fine expansion for the geometric part of the Arthur-Selberg trace formula (as it was conjectured by Werner Hoffmann). For the general linear group, we deduce an expression for the contributions of regular by blocks unipotent…
