We give an overview of differential cohomology from the point of view of algebraic topology. This includes a survey of several different definitions of differential cohomology groups, a discussion of differential characteristic classes, an…
A summary of noncommutative spectral geometry as an approach to unification is presented. The role of the doubling of the algebra, the seeds of quantization and some cosmological implications are briefly discussed.
This work deals with relations between a bounded cohomological invariant and the geometry of Hermitian symmetric spaces of noncompact type. The invariant, obtained from the K\"ahler class, is used to define and characterize a special class…
A theory of graded manifolds can be viewed as a generalization of differential geometry of smooth manifolds. It allows one to work with functions which locally depend not only on ordinary real variables, but also on $\mathbb{Z}$-graded…
We study the theory specialisations in algebraic geometry from a model theoretic viewpoint. In particular we investigate universality and maximality of specialisations in algebraic geometry.
These lecture notes for the IAS/Park City Graduate Summer School in Geometric Combinatorics (July 2004) provide an overview of poset topology. These notes include introductory material, as well as recent developments and open problems. Some…
We consider moduli spaces of plane quartics marked with various structures such as Cayley octads, Aronhold heptads, Steiner complexes and G\"opel subsets and determine their cohomology. This answers a series of questions of Jesse Wolfson.…
The dimensions of the graded quotients of the cohomology of a plane curve complement with respect to the Hodge filtration are described in terms of simple geometrical invariants. The case of curves with ordinary singularities is discussed…
We define cohomology of associative H-pseudoalgebras, and we show that it describes module extensions, abelian pseudoalgebra extensions, and pseudoalgebra first order deformations. We describe in details the same results for the special…
A class of differential calculi is explored which is determined by a set of automorphisms of the underlying associative algebra. Several examples are presented. In particular, differential calculi on the quantum plane, the $h$-deformed…
Based on the distinction between the covariant and contravariant metric tensor components in the framework of the affine geometry approach and also on the choice of the contravariant components, it was shown that a wide variety of third,…
In this note we relate three topics for arithmetic schemes: a general duality for \'etale constructible torsion sheaves, an \'etale homology theory, and a Gersten-Bloch-Ogus-Kato complex. The results in this paper have been used in other…
Quadratic algebras related to the reflection equations are introduced. They are quantum group comodule algebras. The quantum group $F_q(GL(2))$ is taken as the example. The properties of the algebras (center, representations, realizations,…
We survey some algebraic geometric aspects of mirror symmetry and duality in string theory. Some applications of computer algebra to algebraic geometry and string theory are shortly reviewed.
This is an expanded and updated version of a lecture series I gave at Seoul National University in September 1997. It is in some sense an update of the 1979 Griffiths and Harris paper with a similar title. I discuss: Homogeneous varieties,…
We describe the duality between different geometries which arises by considering the classical and quantum harmonic map problem. To appear in ``Essays on Mirror Manifolds II''.
This paper focuses on polynomial dynamical systems over finite fields. These systems appear in a variety of contexts, in computer science, engineering, and computational biology, for instance as models of intracellular biochemical networks.…
This note is supposed to answer some questions on deformation theory in derived algebraic geometry. We show that derived algebraic geometry allows for a geometrical interpretation of the full cotangent complex and gives a natural setting…
