We extend Orlov's result that certain functors between derived categories of smooth projective varieties are Fourier--Mukai transforms to the case when those varieties are smooth and proper.

Tsuboi proved that the Calabi invariant of the closed disk transgresses to the Euler class of foliated circle bundles and suggested looking for its higher-dimensional analog. In this paper, we construct a cohomology class of the group of…

Let X and Y be compact hyper-Kahler manifolds deformation equivalence to the Hilbert scheme of length n subschemes of a K3 surface. A cohomology class in their product XxY is an analytic correspondence, if it belongs to the subring…

In arXiv:1905.07734 we presented a construction that is an analogue of Pontryagin's for proper maps in stable dimensions. This gives a bijection between the cobordism set of framed embedded compact submanifolds in $W\times\mathbb{R}^n$ for…

We observe that there is an equivalence between the singularity category of an affine complete intersection and the homotopy category of matrix factorizations over a related scheme. This relies in part on a theorem of Orlov. Using this…

The goal of this paper is to study the Pontrjagin dual of (reduced) 4-dimensional Spin bordism. That is to say, we consider the functor from the category of topological spaces to the category of compact abelian groups that associates to…

This paper is devoted to the problem of classification, up to smooth isomorphisms or up to orbital equivalence, of smooth integrable vector fields on 2-dimensional surfaces, under some nondegeneracy conditions. The main continuous…

Equivalence classes of gapped Hamiltonians compatible with given symmetry constraints, such as those underlying topological insulators, can be defined in many ways. For the non-chiral classes modelled by vector bundles over Brillouin tori,…

Using present a unified approach, we establish a Kolmogorov type comparison theorem for the classes of $2\pi$-periodic functions defined by a special class of operators having certain oscillation properties, which includes the classical…

Consider the cycle class map cl_{r,m} : CH^r(U,m;\Q) \to \Gamma H^{2r-m}(U,\Q(r)), where CH^r(U,m;\Q) is Bloch's higher Chow group (tensored with \Q) of a smooth complex quasi-projective variety U, and H^{2r-m}(U,\Q(r)) is singular…

Co-Euler structures were studied by Burghelea and Haller on closed manifolds as dual objects to Euler structures. We extend the notion of co-Euler structures to the situation of compact manifolds with boundary. As an application, by…

Given two vector bundles E and F on a variety X and a morphism from Sym^2(E) to F, we compute the cohomology class of the locus in X where the kernel of this morphism contains a quadric of prescribed rank. Our formulas have many…

We show that two properly embedded compact surfaces in an orientable 4-manifold are cobordant if and only if they are $\mathbb{Z}/2$-homologous and either the 4-manifold has boundary or the surfaces have the same normal Euler number. If the…

In this thesis we use the Beauville-Bogomolov decomposition to compute the LLV algebra of smooth projective complex varieties admitting a holomorphic symplectic form, generalizing known results from hyperk\"ahler and abelian varieties.…

The well-known theory of Pontryagin duality provides a strong connection between the homology and cohomology theories of a profinite group in appropriate categories. A construction for taking the `profinite direct sum' of an infinite family…

Let M_g be the moduli space of stable curves of genus g >= 2. Let D_i be the irreducible component of the boundary of M_g such that general points of D_i correspond to stable curves with one node of type i. Let M_g^0 be the set of stable…

In this note we prove that $H^*(\text{BSO}(4);\mathbb{Q})$ injects into the group cohomology of $\text{Diff}^+(S^{3})$ with rational coefficients. The proof is based on an idea of Nariman who proved that the monomials in the Euler and…

Let $M_{n,k}$ denote the even orthogonal Grassmanian, $SO(2n) / (U(k) \times SO(2n-2k) )$. We study endomorphisms of the rational cohomology algebra of $M_{n,k}$. We prove that an endomorphism of the rational cohomology algebra of…

We compute the alpha invariant of any smooth complex projective spin complete intersection of complex dimension $1 \; ({\rm mod} \; 4)$. We prove that the alpha invariant depends only on the total degree and Pontryagin classes. Our findings…

We first develop some criteria for a general divisor to be strongly Euler-homogeneous in terms of the Fitting ideals of certain modules. We also study new variants of Saito-holonomicity, generalizing Koszul-free type properties and…
