We explore and extend the application of homological algebra to describe quantum entanglement, initiated in arXiv:1901.02011, focusing on the Hodge-theoretic structure of entanglement cohomology in finite-dimensional quantum systems. We…

We study a natural Hodge theoretic generalization of rational (or $\mathbb{Q}$-)homology manifolds through an invariant ${\rm HRH(Z)}$ where $Z$ is a complex algebraic variety. The defining property of this notion encodes the difference…

Along the lines of the classic Hodge-De Rham theory a general decomposition theorem for sections of a Dirac bundle over a compact Riemannian manifold is proved by extending concepts as exterior derivative and coderivative as well as as…

Let $(M,g)$ be an open, oriented and incomplete riemannian manifold of dimension $m$. Under some general conditions we show that it is possible to build a Hilbert complex $(L^2\Omega^i(M,g),d_{\mathfrak{M},i})$ such that its cohomology…

We provide a generalization of the Deligne sheaf construction of intersection homology theory, and a corresponding generalization of Poincar\'e duality on pseudomanifolds, such that the Goresky-MacPherson, Goresky-Siegel, and…

We characterize the groupoids for which an operator is Fredholm if, and only if, its principal symbol and all its boundary restrictions are invertible. A groupoid with this property is called {\em Fredholm}. Using results on the Effros-Hahn…

In this expository article, we outline the theory of harmonic differential forms and its consequences. We provide self-contained proofs of the following important results in differential geometry: (1) Hodge theorem, which states that for a…

Let $(X,g)$ be a compact Riemannian stratified space with simple edge singularity. Thus a neighbourhood of the singular stratum is a bundle of truncated cones over a lower dimensional compact smooth manifold. We calculate the various…

In this paper, We develop the stratified de Rham theory on singular spaces using modern tools including derived geometry and stratified structures. This work unifies and extends the de Rham theory, Hodge theory, and deformation theory of…

We give a generalization of the Hodge operator to spaces $(V,h)$ endowed with a hermitian or symmetric bilinear form $h$ over arbitrary fields, including the characteristic two case. Suitable exterior powers of $V$ become free modules over…

Let $(M,g)$ an open and oriented riemannian manifold. The aim of this paper is to study some properties of the two following sequences of $L^2$ cohomology groups: $H^i_{2,m\rightarrow M}(M,g)$ defined as the image…

Intersection cohomology is a way to enhance classical cohomology, allowing us to use a famous result called Poincar\'e duality on a large class of spaces known as stratified pseudomanifolds. There is a theoretically powerful way to arrive…

We prove an extension of the Cheeger-M\"{u}ller theorem to spaces with isolated conical singularities: the $L^2$-analytic torsion coincides with the Ray-Singer intersection torsion on an even dimensional space, and they are trivial, while…

Given a smooth proper morphism $f\colon X\rightarrow S$, we introduce a certain derived category where morphisms are permitted to be $\mathcal{O}_S$-linear differential operators. We then prove a generalisation of Serre duality that applies…

We study the global analytic properties of a space $X$ with a horn type singularity. In particular, we introduce some de Rham complex of square integrable forms and we describe its homology and the spectral properties of the associated…

By adapting the Cheeger-Simons approach to differential cohomology, we establish a notion of differential cohomology with compact support. We show that it is functorial with respect to open embeddings and that it fits into a natural diagram…
