We define and study equivariant analytic and local cyclic homology for smooth actions of totally disconnected groups on bornological algebras. Our approach contains equivariant entire cyclic cohomology in the sense of Klimek, Kondracki and…

For an algebra B with an action of a Hopf algebra H we establish the pairing between even equivariant cyclic cohomology and equivariant K-theory for B. We then extend this formalism to compact quantum group actions and show that equivariant…

We prove an operator-theoretic reconstruction of the Beilinson-Bloch regulator for compact Riemann surfaces, using loop operators and the Connes-Karoubi character for Fredholm modules. The proof includes a new computation of the…

We prove an explicit formula for the total Chern character of the Verlinde bundle over the moduli space of pointed stable curves in terms of tautological classes. The Chern characters of the Verlinde bundles define a semisimple CohFT (the…

We show by a direct computation that, for any Hopf algebra with a modulus-like character, the formulas first introduced in [CM] in the context of characteristic classes for actions of Hopf algebras, do define a cyclic module. This provides…

We give a characterization of groups with twisted p-periodic cohomology in terms of group actions on mod p homology spheres. An equivalent algebraic characterization of such groups is also presented.

We develop an appropriate dihedral extension of the Connes-Moscovici characteristic map for Hopf *-algebras. We then observe that one can use this extension together with the dihedral Chern character to detect non-trivial $L$-theory classes…

We compute the Chern-Connes character (a map from the $K$-theory of a C$^*$-algebra under the action of a Lie group to the cohomology of its Lie algebra) for the $L^2$-norm closure of the algebra of all classical zero-order…

In this thesis we give a construction of cyclic cocycles on convolution algebras twisted by gerbes over discrete translation groupoids. In his seminal book, Connes constructs a map from the equivariant cohomology of a manifold carrying the…

Coherent sheaves on general complex manifolds do not necessarily have resolutions by finite complexes of vector bundles. However D. Toledo and Y.L.L. Tong showed that one can resolve coherent sheaves by objects analogous to chain complexes…

We observe that Beck modules for a commutative monoid are exactly modules over a graded commutative ring associated to the monoid. Under this identification, the Quillen cohomology of commutative monoids is a special case of Andr\'e-Quillen…

In this work, we present a topological characterization of superconductivity in a prototype electron fractionalization model for doped Mott insulators. In this model, spinons and holons are coupled via the mutual Chern-Simons gauge fields.…

We consider the quantum-mechanical algebra of observables generated by canonical quantization of $SL(2,R)$ Chern-Simons theory with rational charge on a space manifold with torus topology. We produce modular representations generalizing the…

We consider a pairing producing various cyclic Hochschild cocycles, which led Alain Connes to cyclic cohomology. We are interested in geometrical meaning and homological properties of this pairing. We define a non-trivial pairing between…

Drinfeld twists, and the twists of Giaquinto and Zhang, allow for algebras and their modules to be deformed by a cocycle. We prove general results about cocycle twists of algebra factorisations and induced representations and apply them to…

We provide a finite-dimensional model of the twisted K-group twisted by any degree three integral cohomology class of a CW complex. One key to the model is Furuta's generalized vector bundle, and the other is a finite-dimensional…

We study moduli stacks of principal $\Bbb C^*$-bundles over nodal complex algebraic curves and determine their rational cohomology algebras in terms of Chern classes.

We use the elements in $K$-cohomology groups which are constructed by Flach and Mildenhall to obtain a finiteness result for the torsion part of the Chow group of a self-product of a modular curve.

We define Eisenstein series twisted by modular symbols on the group SL(n), generalizing a construction of the first author. We show that, in the case of series attached to the minimal parabolic subgroup, our series converges for all points…

What are called secondary characteristic classes in Chern-Weil theory are a refinement of ordinary characteristic classes of principal bundles from cohomology to differential cohomology. We consider the problem of refining the construction…
