This paper is a continuation of ``Operads, Grothendieck topologies and deformation theory'' (alg-geom/9502010). We show how to develop a cohomology theory that would control deformations of a sheaf of associative algebras over a scheme by…

Over a smooth complex projective curve, we study an algebraic versal deformation space with fixed determinant of a coherent sheaf. The algebraic versal deformation space decomposes into a disjoint union of Shatz strata, namely locally…

Certain semigroups are known to admit a `strong semilattice decomposition' into simpler pieces. We introduce a class of Banach algebras that generalise the $\ell^1$-convolution algebras of such semigroups, and obtain a disintegration…

Some generalizations and variations of the Fintushel-Stern rim surgery are known to produce smoothly knotted surfaces. We show that if the fundamental groups of their complements are cyclic, then these surfaces are topologically unknotted.…

We derive algebraic recurrence relations to obtain a deformation quantization with separation of variables for a locally symmetric K\"ahler manifold. This quantization method is one of the ways to perform a deformation quantization of…

This paper is intended as the first step of a programme aiming to prove in the long run the long-conjectured closedness under holomorphic deformations of compact complex manifolds that are bimeromorphically equivalent to compact K\"ahler…

Let f,g be two algebraically independent regular functions from the smooth affine complex variety U to the affine line. The associated exponential Gauss-Manin systems on the affine line are defined to be the cohomology sheaves of the direct…

Assume A is a Frechet algebra equipped with a smooth isometric action of a vector group V, and consider Rieffel's deformation A_J of A. We construct an explicit isomorphism between the smooth crossed products V\ltimes\A_J and V\ltimes\A.…

We show that the cohomology intersection number of a twisted Gauss-Manin connection with regularization condition is a rational function. As an application, we obtain a new quadratic relation associated to period integrals of a certain…

In this article we use the combinatorial and geometric structure of manifolds with embedded cylinders in order to develop an adiabatic decomposition of the Hodge cohomology of these manifolds. We will on the one hand describe the adiabatic…

We construct natural operators connecting the cohomology of the moduli spaces of stable Higgs bundles with different ranks and genera which, after numerical specialization, recover the topological mirror symmetry conjecture of…

The stable and unstable manifolds of an invariant set of a piecewise-smooth map are themselves piecewise-smooth. Consequently, as parameters of a piecewise-smooth map are varied, an invariant set can develop a homoclinic connection when its…

We establish a smoothness result for families of biholomorphisms between smooth families of strongly pseudoconvex domains, each with trivial biholomorphism group. This is accomplished by considering the Riemannian geometry of their Bergman…

In previous work, we established a duality between the algebraic de Rham cohomology of a flat algebraic connection on a smooth quasi-projective surface over the complex numbers and the rapid decay homology of the dual connection relying on…

We investigate the geometry and topology of submanifolds under a sharp pinching condition involving extrinsic invariants like the mean curvature and the length of the second fundamental form. Several homology vanishing results are given.…

We give a topological interpretation of the space of $L^2$-harmonic forms on Manifold with flat ends. It is an answer to an old question of J. Dodziuk. We also give a Chern-Gauss-Bonnet formula for the $L^2$-Euler characteristic of some of…

Motivated by a recent work of Chen-Zheng [8] on Strominger space forms, we prove that a compact Hermitian surface with pointwise constant holomorphic sectional curvature with respect to a Gauduchon connection $\nabla^t $ is either K\"ahler,…

In this article, we show that (i) any smooth function on compact Riemann surface with non-empty smooth boundary $ (M, \partial M, g) $ can be realized as a Gaussian curvature function; (ii) any smooth function on $ \partial M $ can be…

Using tools and results from geometric measure theory, we give a simple new proof of the main result (Theorem 1.3) in K. Kondo and M. Tanaka, Approximation of Lipschitz Maps via Immersions and Differentiable Exotic Sphere Theorems,…

In this note we explore the variation of Hodge structures associated to the orbifold Landau-Ginzburg B-model whose superpotential has two variables. We extend the Getzler-Gauss-Manin connection to Hochschild chains twisted by group action.…
