The Chern character of a complex vector bundle is most conveniently defined as the exponential of a curvature of a connection. It is well known that its cohomology class does not depend on the particular connection chosen. It has been shown…
The aim of this note is to point out that Chern characters can be computed using curvatures o ``super-connections up to homotopy'. We also present an application to the vanishing theorem for Lie algebroids which is at the origin of new…
In this paper, we develope an equivariant theory of Chern characters for coherent sheaves on compact complex manifolds with finite group actions, taking values in Bott-Chern cohomology classes. Furthermore, we establish the corresponding…
Over a field of characteristic zero, we construct a De Rham motivic complex and generalize the De Rham cohomology of a smooth variety to any Voevodsky motive.
In this note we show that the Chern character form of a superconnection is obtained via the parallel transport of the superconnection along superpaths, by restriction to the universal superpoint path.
We give a formula for the Chern character on the DG-category of global matrix factorizations on a smooth scheme $X$ with superpotential $w\in \Gamma(\mathcal{O}_X)$. Our formula takes values in a Cech model for Hochschild homology. Our…
This is a companion paper our previous submission "\infty-categories monoidales rigides et caracteres de Chern", in which we give a comparison between functions on the derived loop space of a smooth scheme of caracteristic zero, and its…
From the cohomological point of view the symplectomorphism group $Sympl (M)$ of a symplectic manifold is `` tamer'' than the diffeomorphism group. The existence of invariant polynomials in the Lie algebra $\frak {sympl }(M)$, the symplectic…
This paper introduces a new construction of subcomplexes associated with a truncated multicomplex. Inspired by the machinery of spectral sequences, this construction yields a collection of interrelated subcomplexes whose differentials…
We explain how a simple twisting of the notion of spectral triple allows to incorporate type III examples, such as those arising from the transverse geometry of codimension one foliations. Since the twisting of the commutators turns the…
A classical result of A. Connes asserts that the Frechet algebra of smooth functions on a smooth compact manifold X provides, by a purely algebraic procedure, the de Rham cohomology of X. Namely the procedure uses Hochschild and cyclic…
Connes and Cuntz showed in [Comm. Math. Phys. 114 (1988), 515-526] that suitable cyclic cocycles can be represented as Chern characters of finitely summable semifinite Fredholm modules. We show an analogous result in twisted cyclic…
Given a matrix factorization, we use the Atiyah class to give an algebraic Chern-Weil type construction to its Chern character; this allows us to realize the Chern character in an explicit way. It also generalizes the existing result to any…
We report in this survey some new results concerning noncommutative Chern characters: construction and the cases when they are exactly computed. The major result indicates some clear relation of these noncommutative objects and their…
We show that the universal odd Chern form, defined on the stable unitary group $U$, extends to the loop group $LU$ in a way that is closed with respect to an equivariant-type differential. This provides an odd analogue to the Bismut-Chern…
Graphs with given k vertices generate an (acyclic) simplicial complex. We describe the homology of its quotient complex, formed by all connected graphs, and demonstrate its applications to the topology of braid groups, knot theory,…
We replace a ring with a small $\mathbb C$-linear category $\mathcal{C}$, seen as a ring with several objects in the sense of Mitchell. We introduce Fredholm modules over this category and construct a Chern character taking values in the…
We introduce a cohomology, called extendable cohomology, for abstract complex singular varieties based on suitable differential forms. Beside a study of the general properties of such a cohomology, we show that, given a complex vector…
In this paper we prove a categorification of the Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch theorem. Our result implies in particular a Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch theorem for To\"en and Vezzosi's secondary Chern character. As a main application, we establish…
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…
