Kreck's modified surgery theory reduces the classification of closed, connected 4-manifolds, up to connect sum with some number of copies of $S^2\times S^2$, to a series of bordism questions. We implement this in the case of unorientable…
Let NG0 denote the category of all pointed numerically generated spaces and continuous maps preserving base-points. In [SYH], we described a passage from bivariant functors to generalized homology and cohomology theories. In this paper, we…
We construct a weighted version of polyhedral products and compute its cohomology in special cases. This is applied to resolve Steenrod's cohomology realization problem in a case related to products of spheres.
A differential calculus of the first order over multi-braided quantum groups is developed. In analogy with the standard theory, left/right-covariant and bicovariant differential structures are introduced and investigated. Furthermore,…
This paper shows that a functorial version of the "higher diagonal" of a space used to compute Steenrod squares actually contains far more topological information --- including (in some cases) the space's integral homotopy type.
We interpret the complexes defining rack cohomology in terms of a certain differential graded bialgebra. This yields elementary algebraic proofs of old and new structural results for this cohomology theory. For instance, we exhibit two…
One computes the cohomology of the projective embedding of sl(m+1,R) acting on the differential operators on densities on R^m of various weights. This cohomology is non vanishing only for some special critical values of the weights. This…
In this article we survey recent results on rigid dualizing complexes over commutative algebras. We begin by recalling what are dualizing complexes. Next we define rigid complexes, and explain their functorial properties. Due to the…
We consider the Krall-Sheffer class of admissible, partial differential operators in the plane. We concentrate on algebraic structures, such as the role of commuting operators and symmetries. For the polynomial eigenfunctions, we give…
A basic result in the theory of holomorphic functions of several complex variables is the following special case of the work of H. Cartan on the sheaf cohomology on Stein domains ([10], or see [14] or [16] for more modern treatments).
We present a formula describing the action of a generalised Steenrod operation of $\Z_2$-type on the cohomology class represented by a proper self-transverse immersion $f\co M\imm X$, in terms of the equivariant double points of $f$ and the…
We use modular invariant theory to establish a complete set of relations of the mod $p$ homology of $\{QS^k\}_{k\geq0}$, for $p$ odd, as a ring object in the category of coalgebras (also known as a coalgebraic ring or a Hopf ring). We also…
We introduce a theory of cohomological invariants with mod $p^r$ coefficients for algebraic stacks in characteristic $p$. Using these new tools we complete the computation of the Brauer group and cohomological invariants of the stack of…
For any type of fundamental groupoid scheme, we construct an algebraic cohomology theory for varieties with coefficients in the base field. This is a minor variant of \'etale cohomology, involving neither de Rham complexes nor…
We establish the foundations of the theory of persistent cohomology operations, derive decomposition formulas for wedge sums and products, and prove their Gromov-Hausdorff stability. We use these results to construct pairs of Riemannian…
In the present review we provide an extensive analysis of the intertwinement between Feynman integrals and cohomology theories in the light of the recent developments. Feynman integrals enter in several perturbative methods for solving non…
This paper addresses the question: What is the de Rham theory for general differentiable spaces? We identify two potential answers and study them. In the first part, we show that the de Rham cohomology calculated using (the completion of)…
We completely calculate the $RO(\mathbb{Z}/p)$-graded coefficients $H\underline{\mathbb{Z}/p}_\star H\underline{\mathbb{Z}/p}$ for the constant Mackey functor $\underline{\mathbb{Z}/p}$.
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…
The goal of this paper is to prove Riemann-Roch type theorems for Deligne-Mumford algebraic stacks. To this end, we introduce a "cohomology with coefficients in representations" and a Chern character, and we prove a…
