Let C be the stable oo-category of perfect complexes on a derived Deligne-Mumford stack X of finite type over the complex numbers. We prove that the complexified noncommutative topological Chern character is an isomorphism for C. In the…

In this article, we construct Chern classes in rational Deligne cohomology for coherent sheaves on a smooth complex compact manifold. We prove that these classes verify the functoriality property under pullbacks, the Whitney formula and the…

We define a category of divided Dieudonn\'e crystals which classifies p-divisible groups over schemes in characteristic p with certain finiteness conditions, including all F-finite noetherian schemes. For formally smooth schemes or locally…

Those are the notes for the 2015 Summer Research Institute on Algebraic Geometry. We report on Deligne's finiteness theorem for $\ell$-adic representations on smooth varieties defined over a finite field, on its crystalline version, and on…

We show that, under the definiteness of holomorphic sectional curvature, the spaces of some holomorphic tensor fields on compact Chern-K\"{a}hler-like Hermitian manifolds are trivial. These can be viewed as counterparts to Bochner's…

Let $k$ be a perfect field of positive characteristic and $Z$ an effective Cartier divisor in the projective line over $k$ with complement $U$. In this note, we establish some results about the formal deformation theory of overconvergent…

A formula for the first Chern class of the Verlinde bundle over the moduli space of smooth genus g curves is given. A finite-dimensional argument is presented in rank 2 using geometric symmetries obtained from strange duality, relative…

For a discrete group $\Gamma$, we study vector bundles $E_\rho$ on compact subsets of $B\Gamma$ associated to almost representations $\rho:\Gamma \to U(n)$. We compute the first Chern class of $E_\rho$ in terms of $\rho$. When $\rho$ is…

Descent equations play an important role in the theory of characteristic classes and find applications in theoretical physics, e.g. in the Chern-Simons field theory and in the theory of anomalies. The second Chern class (the first…

We construct a functor, from the category of schemes to the category of graded rings, that is an initial object for having a theory of Chern classes with an additive first Chern class. For any scheme $X$, the graded ring that our functor…

The Chern-Fulton class is a generalization of Chern class to the realm of arbitrary embeddable schemes. While Chern-Fulton classes are sensitive to non-reduced scheme structure, they are not sensitive to possible singularities of the…

Let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p>2$ and $K$ an extension of $F=\mathrm{Frac} W(k)$ contained in some $F(\mu_{p^r})$. Using crystalline Dieudonn\'e theory, we provide a classification of $p$-divisible groups over…

Let $\mathcal{O}_K$ be a mixed characteristic complete discrete valuation ring with perfect residue field. We study $\mathbb{B}_\mathrm{dR}^+$-crystals on the (log-) prismatic site of $\mathcal{O}_K$, which are crystals defined over the de…

According to a conjecture attributed to Hartshorne and Lichtenbaum and proven by Ellingsrud and Peskine, the smooth rational surfaces in $\mathbb{P}^4$ belong to only finitely many families. We formulate and study a collection of analogous…

We define the equivariant Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson class of a possibly singular algebraic variety with a group action over the complex number field (or a field of characteristic 0). In fact, we construct a natural transformation from the…

In this note, we investigate the Chern classes of flat bundles in the arithmetic Deligne Cohomology, introduced by Green-Griffiths, Asakura-Saito. We show nontriviality of the Chern classes in some cases and the proof also indicates that…

Newstead and Ramanan conjectured the vanishing of the top (2g-1) Chern classes of the moduli space of stable, odd degree vector bundles of rank 2 on a Riemann surface of genus g. This was proved by Gieseker [G], while an analogue in rank 3…

We obtain several new characterizations of splayedness for divisors: a Leibniz property for ideals of singularity subschemes, the vanishing of a `splayedness' module, and the requirements that certain natural morphisms of modules and…

Let $X$ be a nonsingular variety defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$, and $D$ be a free divisor with Jacobian ideal of linear type. We compute the Chern class of the sheaf of logarithmic derivations along $D$…

We show that for smooth complex projective varieties the most general combinations of chern numbers that are invariant under the K-equivalence relation consist of the complex elliptic genera. Combined with a recent result of Totaro, we…
