We construct an odd version of Khovanov's arc algebra $H^n$. Extending the center to elements that anticommute, we get a subalgebra that is isomorphic to the oddification of the cohomology of the $(n,n)$-Springer varieties. We also prove…

The Khovanov-Springer variety X(n) is a certain subvariety of the variety of flags of length 2n, which has been studied from various different points of view. We give a new proof of the ring structure of the cohomology of X(n) and relate it…

We investigate the cohomology rings of regular semisimple Hessenberg varieties whose Hessenberg functions are of the form $h=(h(1),n\dots,n)$ in Lie type $A_{n-1}$. The main result of this paper gives an explicit presentation of the…

In this dissertation, we extend the odd Khovanov bracket to link cobordisms and prove that our construction is functorial up to sign. We then build an odd Khovanov theory for dotted link cobordisms. Out of the dotted theory, a module…

We show that there is an associative algebra $\widetilde{H}_n$ such that, over a base ring $R$ of characteristic 2, Khovanov's arc algebra $H_n$ is isomorphic to the algebra $\widetilde{H}_n[x]/(x^2)$. We also show a similar result for…

We identify the ring of odd symmetric functions introduced by Ellis and Khovanov as the space of skew polynomials fixed by a natural action of the Hecke algebra at q=-1. This allows us to define graded modules over the Hecke algebra at q=-1…

The sequence of rings $H^n, n\ge 0,$ introduced in math.QA/0103190, controls categorification of the quantum sl(2) invariant of tangles. We prove that the center of $H^n$ is isomorphic to the cohomology ring of the (n,n) Springer variety…

We compute the \'etale cohomology ring $H^*(\text{Spec } \mathcal{O}_K,\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z})$ where $\mathcal{O}_K$ is the ring of integers of a number field $K.$ As an application, we give a non-vanishing formula for an invariant defined…

We give a new combinatorial description of the cohomology ring structure of $H^*(M(\mathcal{A});\mathbb{Z})$ of the complement $M(\mathcal{A})$ of a real complexified toric arrangement $\mathcal{A}$ in $(\mathbb{C}^*)^d$. In particular, we…

Let $A_n$ be the $n$-th Weyl algebra, and let $G\subset\Sp_{2n}(\C)\subset\Aut(A_n)$ be a finite group of linear automorphisms of $A_n$. In this paper we compute the multiplicative structure on the Hochschild cohomology $\HH^*(A_n^G)$ of…

We show that there is a spectral sequence with $E^2$-page given by the Khovanov homology of a link in $S^1\times S^2$, as defined by Rozansky in arXiv:1011.1958, which converges to the Hochschild homology of an $A_\infty$-bimodule defined…

We describe the center of the ring $\Diff(n)$ of $\h$-deformed differential operators of type A. We establish an isomorphism between certain localizations of $\Diff(n)$ and the Weyl algebra $\text{W}_n$ extended by $n$ indeterminates.

We extend the covering of even and odd Khovanov link homology to tangles, using arc algebras. For this, we develop the theory of quasi-associative algebras and bimodules graded over a category with a 3-cocycle. Furthermore, we show that a…

We give a topological description of the two-row Springer fiber over the real numbers. We show its cohomology ring coincides with the oddification of the cohomology ring of the complex Springer fiber introduced by Lauda-Russell. We also…

Let $n$ be a positive integer. The main result of this manuscript is a construction of a filtration on the cohomology ring of a regular nilpotent Hessenberg variety in $GL(n,{\mathbb{C}})/B$ such that its associated graded ring has graded…

We construct an explicit isomorphism between the generalised Khovanov arc algebras of type D and the basic algebras of the anti-spherical Hecke category associated to the maximal parabolic subgroup $W (A_{n-1})$ of $W (Dn)$. This…

We study Ruan's "cohomological crepant resolution conjecture" (see math.AG/0108195) for orbifolds with transversal ADE singularities. Let [Y] be such an orbifold, Y its coarse moduli space and Z the crepant resolution of Y. Following Ruan…

This is the second companion paper of arXiv:1601.03586. We consider the morphism from the variety of triples introduced in arXiv:1601.03586 to the affine Grassmannian. The direct image of the dualizing complex is a ring object in the…

A categorification of the Heisenberg algebra is constructed in by Khovanov using graphical calculus, and left with a conjecture on the isomorphism between the Heisenberg algebra and Grothendieck ring of the constructed category. We give a…

We study nonmatrix varieties of $\mathbf{k}$-algebras, where $\mathbf{k}$ is a unital commutative ring. Our results extend to this generality known results for the case in which $\mathbf{k}$ is an infinite field. Also, we generalize these…
