We investigate some relations between the duality and the topological filtration in algebraic K-theory. As a result, we obtain a construction of the first Steenrod square for Chow groups modulo two of varieties over a field of arbitrary…

Given a matrix factorization, we use the Atiyah class to give an algebraic Chern-Weil type construction to its Chern character; this allows us to realize the Chern character in an explicit way. It also generalizes the existing result to any…

The aim of this note is to point out that Chern characters can be computed using curvatures o ``super-connections up to homotopy'. We also present an application to the vanishing theorem for Lie algebroids which is at the origin of new…

We examine the tangent groups at the identity, and more generally the formal completions at the identity, of the Chow groups of algebraic cycles on a nonsingular quasiprojective algebraic variety over a field of characteristic zero. We…

We study Chern characters and the assembly mapping for free actions using the framework of geometric $K$-homology. The focus is on the relative groups associated with a group homomorphism $\phi:\Gamma_1\to \Gamma_2$ along with applications…

Let $\pi\colon P\to M$ be a principal bundle and $p$ an invariant polynomial of degree r on the Lie algebra of the structure group. The theory of Chern-Simons differential characters is exploited to define an homology map $\chi^{k} :…

The mod-p cohomology ring of the extraspecial p-group of exponent p is studied for odd p. We investigate the subquotient ch(G) generated by Chern classes modulo the nilradical. The subring of ch(G) generated by Chern classes of…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic 0 and $\mathcal{A}$ a curved $k$-algebra. We obtain a Chern-Weil-type formula for the Chern character of a perfect $\mathcal{A}$-module taking values in $HN_0^{II}(\mathcal{A})$, the negative cyclic…

The set of the first Hilbert coefficients of parameter ideals relative to a module--its Chern coefficients--over a local Noetherian ring codes for considerable information about its structure--noteworthy properties such as that of…

Based on a relative Wu theorem in \'etale cohomology, we study the compatibility of Steenrod operations on Chow groups and on \'etale cohomology. Using the resulting obstructions to algebraicity, we construct new examples of non-algebraic…

We provide a proof of Connes' formula for a representative of the Hochschild class of the Chern character for (p,\infty)-summable spectral triples. Our proof is valid for all semifinite von Neumann algebras, and all integral p\geq 1. We…

We first construct closed spherical CR manifolds of dimension at least five having non-trivial first Chern class with real coefficients. We next prove a constraint on Chern classes with real coefficients of (not necessarily closed)…

Following Bloch-Esnault-Kerz and Green-Griffiths' recent works on deformation of algebraic cycle classes, we use Chern character from K-theory to negative cyclic homology to show how to eliminate obstructions to deforming cycles.

In this article we construct Symmetric operations for all primes (previously known only for p=2). These unstable operations are more subtle than the Landweber-Novikov operations, and encode all p-primary divisibilities of characteristic…

We present an argument due to Thom to formulate a priori cohomology obstructions for a projective variety to admit an embedded resolution of singularities, and generalize the argument to a field of characteristic $p > 0$. We show that these…

Let $P\in \Bbb Q_p[x,y]$, $s\in \Bbb C$ with sufficiently large real part, and consider the integral operator $ (A_{P,s}f)(y):=\frac{1}{1-p^{-1}}\int_{\Bbb Z_p}|P(x,y)|^sf(x) |dx| $ on $L^2(\Bbb Z_p)$. We show that if $P$ is homogeneous…

The Steenrod operations (mod p) in Chow theory are defined for any prime p for a quasi-projective scheme, without appealing to the results of any domain but Milnor's K-theory. The new definition also gives a direct formula that depends only…

We investigate the integral cohomology ring and the Chow ring of the classifying space of the complex projective linear group PGL_p, when p is an odd prime. In particular, we determine its additive structure completely, and we reduce the…

We define the equivariant Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson class of a possibly singular algebraic variety with a group action over the complex number field (or a field of characteristic 0). In fact, we construct a natural transformation from the…

For certain subrings of the mod-p cohomology ring of a compact Lie group, we give a description of the prime ideal spectrum, analogous to Quillen's description of the spectrum of the whole ring. Examples of such subrings include the Chern…
