Let X be a smooth complex projective variety of dimension d. We show that its primitive cohomology in degree d is generated by certain "tube classes," constructed from the monodromy of the family of smooth hyperplane sections on X. The…

The Dwyer-Fried invariants of a finite cell complex X are the subsets \Omega^i_r(X) of the Grassmannian of r-planes in H^1(X,\Q) which parametrize the regular \Z^r-covers of X having finite Betti numbers up to degree i. In previous work, we…

This work deals with the topological classification of germs of singular foliations on $(\mathbb C^{2},0)$. Working in a suitable class of foliations we fix the topological invariants given by the separatrix set, the Camacho-Sad indices and…

The modular variety of non singular and complete hyperelliptic curves with level-two structure of genus 3 is a 5-dimensional quasi projective variety which admits several standard compactifications. The first one, X, comes from the…

We compute the rational homology of the moduli stack $\mathcal{M}$ of objects in the derived category of certain smooth complex projective varieties $X$ including toric varieties, flag varieties, curves, surfaces, and some 3- and 4-folds.…

We set up a homological algebra for N-complexes, which are graded modules together with a degree -1 endomorphism d satisfying d^N=0. We define Tor- and Ext-groups for N-complexes and we compute them in terms of their classical counterparts…

Let X be a separated scheme of finite type over an algebraically closed field k and let m be a natural number. By an explicit geometric construction using torsors we construct a pairing between the first mod m Suslin homology and the first…

In this article we are examining extensions and some basic diagrammatic properties of modules, in both cases from a new, "virtual" point of view. As natural background for investigating the kind of problems we are dealing with, the virtual…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over the complex numbers and $S(d)$ the scheme parametrizing $d$-dimensional Lie subalgebras of $H^0(X,\mathcal{T} X)$. This article is dedicated to the study of the geometry of the moduli space…

Let $M$ be a non-zero module over an associative (not necessarily commutative) ring. In this paper, we investigate the so-called \emph{second} and \emph{coprime} submodules of $M.$ Moreover, we topologize the spectrum $%…

We investigate the relation between the Hodge theory of a smooth subcanonical $n$-dimensional projective variety $X$ and the deformation theory of the affine cone $A_X$ over $X$. We start by identifying $H^{n-1,1}_{\mathrm{prim}}(X)$ as a…

Let ${\mathcal H}_{q}(d)$ be the Iwahori-Hecke algebra for the symmetric group, where $q$ is a primitive $l$th root of unity. In this paper we develop a theory of support varieties which detects natural homological properties such as the…

The primitive elements of the supersymmetry algebra cohomology as defined in a companion paper are computed exhaustively for standard supersymmetry algebras in dimensions D=2 and D=3, for all signatures (t,D-t) and all numbers N of sets of…

For an embedding of sufficiently high degree of a smooth projective variety X into projective space, we use residues to define a filtered holonomic D-module (M, F) on the dual projective space. This gives a concrete description of the…

Let $Z'\subset \mathbb{P}^{n}$ be a smooth projective hypersurface of degree $d>1$ and let $Z\to \mathbb{P}^n$ be the $\mu_d$-cover totally ramified along $Z'$. We relate full level $d$ structures on the primitive cohomology $Z'$ with full…

We study the arithmetic properties of projective varieties of almost minimal degree, that is of non-degenerate irreducible projective varieties whose degree exceeds the codimension by precisely 2. We notably show, that such a variety $X…

This paper solves the global moduli problem for regular holonomic D-modules with normal crossing singularities on a nonsingular complex projective variety. This is done by introducing a level structure (which gives rise to…

We study the space ${\mathcal X}^{d}(G)$ of pictures of a graph $G$ in complex projective $d$-space. The main result is that the homology groups (with integer coefficients) of ${\mathcal X}^{d}(G)$ are completely determined by the Tutte…

For a projective variety V in P^n over a field of characteristic zero, with homogeneous ideal I in A = k[x0,x1,...,xn], we consider the local cohomology modules H^i_I(A). These have a structure of holonomic D-module over A, and we…

This article is an investigation of a method of deriving a topology from a space and an elementary submodel containing it. We first define and give the basic properties of this construction, known as $X/M$. In the next section, we construct…
