An equivariant stable birational invariant of an action of a finite group on a smooth projective variety is the first cohomology group of the Picard module. Bogomolov-Prokhorov and Shinder computed this for actions of cyclic groups on…
We present an Eilenberg-Steenrod-like axiomatic framework for equivariant coarse homology and cohomology theories. We also discuss a general construction of such coarse theories from topological ones and the associated transgression maps. A…
We introduce basic characteristic classes and numbers as new invariants for Riemannian foliations. If the ambient Riemannian manifold M is simply connected (or more generally if the foliation is a transversely orientable Killing foliation),…
In this article we construct a cochain complex of a complex Clifford algebra with coefficients in itself in a combinatorial fashion and we call the corresponding cohomology by {\it Clifford cohomology.} We show that {\it Clifford…
We develop a constructive model of homotopy type theory in a Quillen model category that classically presents the usual homotopy theory of spaces. Our model is based on presheaves over the cartesian cube category, a well-behaved…
In this paper we study systematically the Euclidean renormalization in configuration spaces. We investigate also the deviation from commutativity of the renormalization and the action of all linear partial differential operators. This…
This is a slightly corrected version of the article published by Functional Analysis and its Applications in 1993. We define the quadratic duality for algebras with nonhomogeneous relations; the duality between the algebra of differential…
We extend the definitions and main properties of graded extensions to the category of locally compact groupoids endowed with involutions. We introduce Real \v{C}ech cohomology, which is an equivariant-like cohomology theory suitable for the…
This work establishes the geometric component of Deligne's longstanding program on refined Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch formulas expressed through determinants of cohomology. The approach relies on a newly developed universal category of Chern…
This is the second in a series of papers on a new equivariant cohomology that takes values in a vertex algebra. In an earlier paper, the first two authors gave a construction of the cohomology functor on the category of O(sg) algebras. The…
For Hamiltonian circle actions on compact, connected, four-dimensional manifolds, we give a generators and relations description for the even part of the equivariant cohomology, as an algebra over the equivariant cohomology of a point. This…
In this paper we study the variability and rigidity of secondary characteristic classes which arise from flat connections on a manifold. Considering the connection as a Lie-algebra valued one-form, we study the characteristic map from Lie…
For a smooth finite cyclic covering over a projective space of dimension greater than one, we show that the group of automorphisms acts faithfully on the cohomology except for a few cases. In characteristic zero, we study the equivariant…
Let M be a manifold and g a Lie algebra acting on M. Differential forms Omega(M) carry a natural action of Lie derivatives L(x) and contractions I(x) of fundamental vector fields for x \in g. Contractions (anti-) commute with each other,…
We look more closely at the higher nonabelian de Rham cohomology of a smooth projective variety or family of varieties that had been defined in some previous papers. We formalize using $n$-stacks the notion of shape underlying this…
We study de Rham cohomology for various differential calculi on finite groups G up to order 8. These include the permutation group S_3, the dihedral group D_4 and the quaternion group Q. Poincare' duality holds in every case, and under some…
We study differential cohomology on categories of globally hyperbolic Lorentzian manifolds. The Lorentzian metric allows us to define a natural transformation whose kernel generalizes Maxwell's equations and fits into a restriction of the…
A $Q$-manifold $M$ is a supermanifold endowed with an odd vector field $Q$ squaring to zero. The Lie derivative $L_Q$ along $Q$ makes the algebra of smooth tensor fields on $M$ into a differential algebra. In this paper, we define and study…
Given an associative unital algebra $A$ over a perfect field $k$ of odd positive characteristic, we construct a non-commutative generalization of the Cartier isomorphism for $A$. The role of differential forms is played by Hochschild…
For $G$ a finite group, we show that functions on fields for the 2-dimensional supersymmetric sigma model with background $G$-symmetry determine cocycles for complex analytic $G$-equivariant elliptic cohomology. Similar structures in…
