In this paper, we define a generalized elliptic genus of an almost complex manifold with an extra complex bundle which generalize the elliptic genus in [10]. This generalized elliptic genus is a generalized Jacobi form. By this generalized…

A kind of two-variable elliptic genus for almost-complex manifolds was introduced by Ping Li and its various properties were established by him. In this paper, we define a two-variable elliptic genus for odd dimensional spin manifolds which…

The elliptic genus (EG) of a compact complex manifold was introduced as a holomorphic Euler characteristic of some formal power series with vector bundle coefficients. EG is an automorphic form in two variables only if the manifold is a…

Given a Riemann surface and a riemannian manifold M with certain restrictions, we construct a cobordism invariant of M. This invariant is a generalization of the elliptic genus and it shares some similar properties.

This paper defines a new genus, the Cayley plane genus. By definition it is the universal multiplicative genus for oriented Cayley plane bundles. The main result (Theorem 2) is that it factors (tensor Q) through the product of the Ochanine…

Our primary aim is to develop a theory of equivariant genera for stably complex manifolds equipped with compatible actions of a torus T^k. In the case of omnioriented quasitoric manifolds, we present computations that depend only on their…

We introduce the universal complex elliptic genus phi_ell as the ring homomorphism from the complex cobordism ring Omega^U to the polynomial ring C[A,B,C,D] associated to the characteristic power series Q(x)=x/f(x), where f is the solution…

We construct a new family of toric manifolds generating the unitary bordism ring. Each manifold in the family is the complex projectivisation of the sum of a line bundle and a trivial bundle over a complex projective space. We also…

In this paper, we construct for the first time the projective elliptic genera for a compact oriented manifold equipped with a projective complex vector bundle. Such projective elliptic genera are rational q-series that have topological…

We give a complete classification of complex Q-homology projective planes with isolated rational double point singularities and numerically trivial canonical bundle. There are 31 types, and each has one-dimensional moduli. In fact, all…

We define and compute the dressed elliptic genus of N = 2 heterotic compactifications with torsion that are principal two-torus bundles over a K3 surface. We consider the most general gauge bundle compatible with supersymmetry, a stable…

We prove that the ideal in complex cobordism ring $\MU^*$ generated by the polynomial generators $S=(x_1, x_k, k\geq 3)$ of $c_1$-spherical cobordism ring $W^*$, viewed as elements in $\MU^*$ by forgetful map is prime. Using the…

We consider the Siegel modular variety of genus 2 and a p-integral model of it for a good prime p>2, which parametrizes principally polarized abelian varieties of dimension two with a level structure. We consider cycles on this model which…

This paper shows that, away from 6, the kernel of the Witten genus is precisely the ideal consisting of (bordism classes of) Cayley plane bundles with connected structure group, but only after restricting the Witten genus to string bordism.…

We provide an explicit description of the Poincar\'e dual of each generator of the rational cohomology ring of the $SU(2)$ character variety for a genus $g$ surface with central extension -- equivalently, that of the moduli space of stable…

We geometrically construct a homology theory that generalizes the Euler characteristic mod 2 to objects in the unoriented cobordism ring N_*(X) of a topological space X. This homology theory Eh_* has coefficients Z/2 in every nonnegative…

The modular variety of non singular and complete hyperelliptic curves with level-two structure of genus 3 is a 5-dimensional quasi projective variety which admits several standard compactifications. The first one, X, comes from the…

We propose a formalism to capture the structure of the equivariant bordism rings of smooth manifolds with commuting involutions. We introduce the concept of an oriented el$_2^{RO}$-algebra, an algebraic structure featuring representation…

The article presents four reasons why the elliptic genus is the most general characteristic class that admits a generalization to singular spaces. We prove that the elliptic characteristic class (with an additional factor) is essentially…

For a proper scheme X with a fixed 1-perfect obstruction theory, we define virtual versions of holomorphic Euler characteristic, chi y-genus, and elliptic genus; they are deformation invariant, and extend the usual definition in the smooth…
