We consider smooth vector bundles over smooth manifolds equipped with non-smooth geometric data. For nilpotent differential operators acting on these bundles, we show that the kernels of induced Hodge-Dirac-type operators remain isomorphic…
This paper deals with a general method for the reduction of quantum systems with symmetry. For a Riemannian manifold M admitting a compact Lie group G as an isometry group, the quotient space Q = M/G is not a smooth manifold in general but…
We introduce a cohomological invariant arising from a class in nonabelian cohomology. This invariant generalizes the Dixmier-Douady class and encodes the obstruction to a C*-algebra bundle being the fixed-point algebra of a gauge action. As…
Given a finite quiver, its double may be viewed as its non-commutative "cotangent" space, and hence is a non-commutative symplectic space. Crawley-Boevey, Etingof and Ginzburg constructed the non-commutative reduction of this space while…
Let G be an n-dimensional torus and $\tau$ a Hamiltonian action of G on a compact symplectic manifold, M. If M is pre-quantizable one can associate with $\tau$ a representation of G on a virtual vector space, Q(M), by…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive affine algebraic group defined over the complex numbers, and $K\subset G$ be a maximal compact subgroup. Let $X , Y$ be irreducible smooth complex projective varieties and $f: X \rightarrow Y$ an algebraic…
We extend our earlier work in [TZ1], where an analytic approach to the Guillemin-Sternberg conjecture [GS] was developed, to cases where the Spin$^c$-complex under consideration is allowed to be further twisted by certain natural exterior…
The gravitating matter is studied within the framework of the non-commutative geometry. The non-commutative Einstein-Hilbert action on the product of a four dimensional manifold with a discrete space gives the models of matter fields…
By requiring unambiguous symmetric quantization leading to the Dirac equation in a curved space, we obtain a special representation of the spin connections in terms of the Dirac gamma matrices and their space-time derivatives. We also…
In this semi-expository article, we investigate the relationship between the imprimitivity introduced by Mackey several decades ago and commuting $d$- tuples of homogeneous normal operators. The Hahn-Hellinger theorem gives a canonical…
Let $G$ be a semisimple, simply connected, affine algebraic group defined over $\mathbb C$. Consider the Liouville symplectic structure on the total space $T^*G((t))$ of the cotangent bundle of the loop group $G((t))$, where $t$ is a formal…
We compute explicitly the equivariant Hirzebruch $\chi_y$-characteristic of an equivariant complex line bundle over a toric manifold and state a weighted version of the quantization commutes with reduction principle in symplectic geometry.…
The leitmotiv of this review is noncommutative principal U(1)-bundles and associated line bundles. In the first part I give a brief introduction to Hopf-Galois theory and its applications, from field extensions to principal group actions. I…
We study Hamiltonian field theories on the multisymplectic bundle of a principal G-bundle with Hamiltonian densities invariant under a subgroup $H\subset G$. Using the covariant bracket formulation, we reduce the polysymplectic space and…
Let $X$ be a topological space upon which a compact connected Lie group $G$ acts. It is well-known that the equivariant cohomology $H_G^*(X;\Q)$ is isomorphic to the subalgebra of Weyl group invariants of the equivariant cohomology…
We propose a new point of view on quantum cohomology, strongly motivated by the work of Givental and Dubrovin, but closer to differential geometry than the existing approaches. The central object is the D-module which "quantizes" a…
An ergodic action of a compact quantum group G on an operator algebra A can be interpreted as a quantum homogeneous space for G. Such an action gives rise to the category of finite equivariant Hilbert modules over A, which has a module…
Quantum double construction, originally due to Drinfeld and has been since generalized even to the operator algebra framework, is naturally associated with a certain (quasitriangular) $R$-matrix ${\mathcal R}$. It turns out that ${\mathcal…
A strict Lie $2$-algebra $\Gamma(\wedge^\bullet A) \stackrel{T}{\rightarrow} \mathfrak{X}_{\mathrm{mult}}^\bullet(\mathcal{G})$ is associated with any Lie groupoid $\mathcal{G}$. Here, $\Gamma(\wedge^\bullet A)$ is the Schouten algebra of…
A symplectic $T^n$ - reduction on a complex Grassmann manifold $G_{n,2}$ for the canonical action of the maximal compact torus depends on the $S_n$ - orbit of a maximal chamber in a hypersimplex $\Delta _{n,2}$. The chamber decomposition of…
