On an oriented Riemannian manifold, the Gauss-Bonnet-Chern formula asserts that the Pfaffian of the metric represents, in de Rham cohomology, the Euler class of the tangent bundle. Hence, if the underlying manifold is compact, the integral…

In this paper, we formulate the real-space Chern number in a supercell framework. In this framework, the overlap matrix between two corners of the Brillouin zone (BZ) is derived from diagonalizing the real-space Hamiltonian with periodic…

A notion of exotic (ordered) configuration spaces of points on a space $X$ was suggested by Yu.~Baryshnikov. He gave equations for the (exponential) generating series of the Euler characteristics of these spaces. Here we consider un-ordered…

First we recall homology groups of prer Lie superalgebras. Then introducing double weighted chain spaces, we deal with pre Lie superalgebra of multi-vector fields with polynomial coefficients on n-dimensional number space. The bracket is…

A sequence inverse relationship can be defined by a pair of infinite inverse matrices. If the pair of matrices are the same, they define a dual relationship. Here presented is a unified approach to construct dual relationships via…

We prove Chern conjecture, which states that the Euler characteristic vanishes for closed flat affine manifolds. Our key innovation is a deformation argument for the Euler form.

Two well studied invariants of a complex projective variety are the unit Euclidean distance degree and the generic Euclidean distance degree. These numbers give a measure of the algebraic complexity for "nearest" point problems of the…

We derive a necessary and sufficient condition for Poincar\'e Lie superalgebras in any dimension and signature to be isomorphic. This reduces the classification problem, up to certain discrete operations, to classifying the orbits of the…

Let $W$ be a Weyl group, and let $\CT_W$ be the complex toric variety attached to the fan of cones corresponding to the reflecting hyperplanes of $W$, and its weight lattice. The real locus $\CT_W(\R)$ is a smooth, connected, compact…

Taking as starting point a perturbative study of the classical equations of motion of the non-Abelian Chern-Simons Theory with non-dynamical sources, we search for analytical expressions for link invarians. In order to present these…

We provide an intersection-theoretic formula for the Euler characteristic of the moduli space of smooth curves. This formula reads purely in terms of Hodge integrals and, as a corollary, the standard calculus of tautological classes gives a…

We generalize the Chern class relation for the transversal intersection of two nonsingular varieties to a relation for possibly singular varieties, under a 'splayedness' assumption. The relation is shown to hold for both the…

The purpose of this work is to provide details about the construction of the Chern character for categorical sheaves mentioned in our previous work "Chern character, loop spaces and derived algebraic geometry". For this, we introduce and…

For certain tame abelian covers of arithmetic surfaces X/Y we obtain striking formulas, involving a quadratic form derived from intersection numbers, for the equivariant Euler characteristics of both the canonical sheaf !X/Y and also its…

The groups of differential characters of Cheeger and Simons admit a natural multiplicative structure. The map given by the squares of degree 2k differential characters reduces to a homomorphism of ordinary cohomology groups. We prove that…

We define the characteristic cycle of a constructible sheaf on a smooth surface in the cotangent bundle. We prove that the intersection number with the 0-section equals the Euler number and that the total dimension of vanishing cycles at an…

The classification of bandstructures by topological invariants provides a powerful tool for understanding phenomena such as the quantum Hall effect. This classification was originally developed in the context of electrons, but can also be…

It is well-known that odd-dimensional manifolds have Euler characteristic zero. Furthemore orientable manifolds have an even Euler characteristic unless the dimension is a multiple of $4$. We prove here a generalisation of these statements:…

We define integral geometric analogues of the Chern classes for real vector bundle on a smooth real variety. More precisely, we define the Chern densities of a real bundle. These densities are analogues of the Chern forms of a complex…

In this paper we consider two topological transforms that are popular in applied topology: the Persistent Homology Transform (PHT) and the Euler Characteristic Transform (ECT). Both of these transforms are of interest for their mathematical…
