We use a Mayer-Vietoris-like spectral sequence to establish vanishing results for the cohomology of complements of linear and elliptic hyperplane arrangements, as part of a more general framework involving duality and abelian duality…
This is a paper in a series that studies smooth relative Lie algebra homologies and cohomologies based on the theory of formal manifolds and formal Lie groups. In a previous paper, we introduce the notion of formal manifolds and develop the…
It is a sequel to (Wu in arXiv:2003.05187). In that paper, we introduce a notion called modified ideal sheaf in order to make an asymptotic estimate for the order of the cohomology group. Here we continue to a general discussion about this…
We develop the theory of halving spaces to obtain lower bounds in real enumerative geometry. Halving spaces are topological spaces with an action of a Lie group $\Gamma$ with additional cohomological properties. For $\Gamma=\mathbb{Z}_2$ we…
We introduce a convenient framework for constructing and analyzing orthogonal Thom spectra arising from virtual vector bundles. This framework enables us to set up a theory of orientations and graded Thom isomorphisms with good…
In this paper we suggest a new general formalism for studying the invariants of polyhedra and manifolds comming from the theory of von Neumann algebras. First, we examine generality in which one may apply the construction of the extended…
In this paper we study the cohomological criterion for the splitting of vector bundles on multiprojective spaces $\mathbb{P}^{n_1}\times\ldots\times\mathbb{P}^{n_s}$. We also give a generalization of vanishing cohomological criteria for…
We introduce a new logarithmic structure on the moduli stack of stable curves, admitting logarithmic gluing maps. Using this we define cohomological field theories taking values in the logarithmic Chow cohomology ring, a refinement of the…
Recently, the homology and cohomology of non-k-overlapping discs, or, equivalently, no k-equal subspaces of Euclidean space, were calculated by Dobrinskaya and Turchin. We calculate the homology and cohomology of two classes of more general…
This manuscript develops a geometric approach to ordinary cohomology of smooth manifolds, constructing a cochain complex model based on co-oriented smooth maps from manifolds with corners. Special attention is given to the pull-back product…
We show by studying the symplectic geometry of the extended moduli space that the intersection cohomology of the representation space $Hom(\pi_1(\Sigma),G)/G$ for a simply connected compact Lie group $G$ is naturally embedded into the $G$…
We show that every orbispace satisfying certain mild hypotheses has 'enough' vector bundles. It follows that the K-theory of finite rank vector bundles on such orbispaces is a cohomology theory. Global presentation results for smooth…
A general theory of the Frolicher-Nijenhuis and Schouten-Nijenhuis brackets in the category of modules over a commutative algebra is described. Some related structures and (co)homology invariants are discussed, as well as applications to…
We compute the Poincare polynomial and the cohomology algebra with rational coefficeints of the manifold M_n of real points of the moduli space of algebraic curves of genus 0 with n labeled points. This cohomology is a quadratic algebra,…
We describe an approach to calculating the cohomology rings of stable map spaces. The method we use is due to Akildiz-Carrell and employs a C^*-action and a vector field which is equivariant with respect to this C^*-action. We give an…
A real toric space is a topological space which admits a well-behaved $\mathbb{Z}_2^k$-action. Real moment-angle complexes and real toric varieties are typical examples of real toric spaces. A real toric space is determined by a pair of a…
Quantum homogeneous vector bundles are introduced by a direct description of their sections in the context of Woronowicz type compact quantum groups. The bundles carry natural topologies inherited from the quantum groups, and their sections…
We study the topology of some simple infinite dimensional singularities arising from spaces of \emph{algebraic formal loops}. We prove that in some simple cases the natural analogue of nearby cycles cohomology for a function on the loop…
We introduce two new algebraic invariants, the (co)homological distances between continuous maps, which provide computable lower bounds for the homotopic distance and strictly refine the classical cup-length estimates. We then define the…
We construct a non-paracompact Hausdorff space for which Cech cohomology does not coincide with sheaf cohomology. Moreover, the sheaf of continuous real-valued functions is neither soft nor acyclic, and our space admits non-numerable…
