We give a geometric proof of the Decomposition Theorem of Beilinson, Bernstein, Deligne and Gabber for the direct image of the intersection cohomology complex under a proper map of complex algebraic varieties. The method rests on new…
The method of intersection spaces associates rational Poincar\'e complexes to singular stratified spaces. For a conifold transition, the resulting cohomology theory yields the correct count of all present massless 3-branes in type IIB…
Plural (or multiple-conclusion) cuts are inferences made by applying a structural rule introduced by Gentzen for his sequent formulation of classical logic. As singular (single-conclusion) cuts yield trees, which underlie ordinary natural…
We establish the Hodge conjecture for some subvarieties of a class of toric varieties. First we study quasi-smooth intersections in a projective simplicial toric variety, which is a suitable notion to generalize smooth complete intersection…
Using Saito's theory of mixed Hodge modules, we study a generalization of Hellus-Schenzel's "cohomologically complete intersection" property. This property is equivalent to perversity of the shifted constant sheaf. We relate the generalized…
For an affine complex algebraic singular space Y, we define a global Euler obstruction Eu(Y) which extends the Euler-Poincare characteristic of a nonsingular Y. Using Lefschetz pencils, we express Eu(Y) as alternating sum of global polar…
We introduce and study a Serre functor in the category ${\cal P}_d$ of strict polynomial functors over a field of positive characteristic. By using it we obtain the Poincar\'e duality formula for Ext--groups from [C3] in elementary way. We…
In this article, we investigate an axiomatic approach introduced by Grivaux for the study of rational Bott-Chern cohomology, and use it in that context to define Chern classes of coherent sheaves. This method also allows us to derive a…
Due to the orbifold singularities, the intersection numbers on the moduli space of curves $\bar{\sM}_{g,n}$ are in general rational numbers rather than integers. We study the properties of the denominators of these intersection numbers and…
The Euler characteristic of Chow varieties of algebraic cycles of a given degree in complex projective spaces was computed by Blaine Lawson and Stephen Yau by using holomorphic symmetries of cycles spaces. In this paper we compute this in a…
We show the homological Serre spectral sequence with coefficients in a field is a spectral sequence of coalgebras. We also identify the comultiplication on the $E^2$ page of the spectral sequence as being induced by the usual…
We count points over a finite field on wild character varieties of Riemann surfaces for singularities with regular semisimple leading term. The new feature in our counting formulas is the appearance of characters of Yokonuma-Hecke algebras.…
In this note we prove a conjecture of Kashiwara, which states that the Euler class of a coherent analytic sheaf F on a complex manifold X is the product of the Chern character of F with the Todd class of X. As a corollary, we obtain a…
The purpose of this paper is to provide a new account of multiplicity for finite morphisms between smooth projective varieties. Traditionally, this has been defined using commutative algebra in terms of the length of integral ring…
We compute (algebraically) the Euler characteristic of a complex of sheaves with constructible cohomology. A stratified Poincar\'e-Hopf formula is then a consequence of the smooth Poincar\'e-Hopf theorem and of additivity of the…
We define nondegenerate tropical complete intersections imitating the corresponding definition in complex algebraic geometry. As in the complex situation, all nonzero intersection multiplicity numbers between tropical hypersurfaces defining…
The $j$-multiplicity plays an important role in the intersection theory of St\"uckrad-Vogel cycles, while recent developments confirm the connections between the $\epsilon$-multiplicity and equisingularity theory. In this paper we…
Two of the pillars of combinatorics are the notion of choosing an arbitrary subset of a set with $n$ elements (which can be done in $2^n$ ways), and the notion of choosing a $k$-element subset of a set with $n$ elements (which can be done…
We construct a complex of free-modules over a Gorenstein ring R of dimension five, for which the Euler characteristic and Dutta multiplicity are different. This complex is the resolution of an R-module of finite length and finite projective…
We prove generating series formulae for suitable twisted characteristic classes of symmetric products of a singular complex quasi-projective variety. More concretely, we study homology Hirzebruch classes for motivic coefficients, as well as…
