Matrix generators for the general and special linear groups, the symplectic groups and the general and special unitary groups over finite fields. For the most part the generators have been obtained by translating Steinberg's generators for…

We compute the cyclic and Hochschild cohomology groups for the algebras $\mathcal A_\theta^{alg} \rtimes \mathbb Z_3, \mathcal A_\theta^{alg} \rtimes \mathbb Z_4$ and $\mathcal A_\theta^{alg} \rtimes \mathbb Z_6$. We also compute the…

A result of A. King and C. Walter asserts that the Chow ring of a fine quiver moduli space is generated by the Chern classes of universal bundles if the quiver is acyclic. We will show that defining relations between these Chern classes…

We obtain a precise relation between the Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson class of a subvariety of projective space and the Euler characteristics of its general linear sections. In the case of a hypersurface, this leads to simple proofs of…

Explicit generators are found for the group of automorphisms of the algebra of one-sided inverses of a polynomial algebra in $n$ variables. An analogue of the polynomial Jacobian homomorphism is found.

In this paper, we formulate axioms of certain graded cohomology theory for which Chern class maps from higher K-theory are defined, following the method of Gillet [Gi1]. We will not include homotopy invariance nor purity in our axioms. It…

We prove Eilenberg-Watts Theorem for 2-categories of the representation categories $\C\x\Mod$ of finite tensor categories $\C$. For a consequence we obtain that any autoequivalence of $\C\x\Mod$ is given by tensoring with a representative…

For a discrete group $\Gamma$, we study vector bundles $E_\rho$ on compact subsets of $B\Gamma$ associated to almost representations $\rho:\Gamma \to U(n)$. We compute the first Chern class of $E_\rho$ in terms of $\rho$. When $\rho$ is…

In this paper we parametrize the Teichm\"uller spaces of constructible Koebe groups, that is Kleinian group that arise as covering of $2-$orbifolds determined by certain normal subgroups of their fundamental groups. We also study the…

Let $(X,c_X)$ be a convex projective surface equipped with a real structure. The space of stable maps $\bar{\mathcal{M}}_{0,k}(X,d)$ carries different real structures induced by $c_X$ and any order two element $\tau$ of permutation group…

We explore the structure of the cohomology ring of the moduli space of stable 1-dimensional sheaves on $\mathbb{P}^2$ of any degree. We obtain a minimal set of tautological generators, which implies an optimal generation result for both the…

We give a construction of Witten's "top Chern class" on the compactified moduli space of curves with higher spin structures and show that it satisfies most of the axioms proposed in math.AG/9905034.

We consider the capability of $p$ groups of class two and odd prime exponent. We use linear algebra and counting arguments to establish a number of new results. In particular, we settle the 4-generator case, and prove a sufficient condition…

A strict 2-group is a 2-category with one object in which all morphisms and all 2-morphisms have inverses. 2-Groups have been studied in the context of homotopy theory, higher gauge theory and Topological Quantum Field Theory (TQFT). In the…

We consider the finite generation property for cohomology of a finite tensor category C, which requires that the self-extension algebra of the unit Ext*_C(1,1) is a finitely generated algebra and that, for each object V in C, the graded…

We calculate the representation-graded Bredon homology rings of all elementary abelian 2-groups with coefficients in the constant mod-2 Mackey functor. We exhibit minimal presentations for these rings as quotients of the polynomial algebra…

We prove that, if $A$ is a positively graded, graded commutative, local, finite Hopf algebra, its cohomology is finitely generated, thus unifying classical results of Wilkerson and Hopkins-Smith, and of Friedlander-Suslin. We do this by…

We expand the theory of 2-classifiers, that are a 2-categorical generalization of subobject classifiers introduced by Weber. The idea is to upgrade monomorphisms to discrete opfibrations. We prove that the conditions of 2-classifier can be…

A formula for the first Chern class of the Verlinde bundle over the moduli space of smooth genus g curves is given. A finite-dimensional argument is presented in rank 2 using geometric symmetries obtained from strange duality, relative…

The Hochschild cohomology rings for self-injective algebras of tree classes $E_7$ and $E_8$ with finite representation type was described in terms of generators and relations.
