Discussed here is descent theory in the differential context where everything is equipped with a differential operator. To answer a question personally posed by A. Pianzola, we determine all twisted forms of the differential Lie algebras…

We study the structure of abelian extensions of the group $L_qG$ of $q$-differentiable loops (in the Sobolev sense), generalizing from the case of central extension of the smooth loop group. This is motivated by the aim of understanding the…

We prove a Givental-style mirror theorem for toric Deligne--Mumford stacks X. This determines the genus-zero Gromov--Witten invariants of X in terms of an explicit hypergeometric function, called the I-function, that takes values in the…

In this paper, we set up two surgery theories and two kinds of Whitehead torsion for foliations. First, we construct a bounded surgery theory and bounded Whitehead torsion for foliations, which correspond to the Connes' foliation algebra in…

Let G be a Lie group with finitely many connected components and let K be a maximal compact subgroup. We assume that G satisfies the rapid decay (RD) property and that G/K has non-positive sectional curvature. As an example, we can take G…

This is the second in a series of papers investigating the relationship between the twisted equivariant K-theory of a compact Lie group G and the "Verlinde ring" of its loop group. We introduce the Dirac family of Fredholm operators…

Let $\mathbb{G}$ be a higher-rank connected semisimple Lie group with finite center and without compact factors. In any unitary representation $(\pi, \mathcal{H})$ of $\mathbb{G}$ without non-trivial $\mathbb{G}$-fixed vectors, we study the…

We give a superconnection proof of the cohomological form of Mathai-Melrose-Singer index theorem for the family of twisted Dirac operators under relaxed conditions.

We use the mirror theorem for toric Deligne-Mumford stacks, proved recently by the authors and by Cheong-Ciocan-Fontanine-Kim, to compute genus-zero Gromov-Witten invariants of a number of toric orbifolds and gerbes. We prove a mirror…

The classical Getzler rescaling theorem is extended to the transverse geometry of foliations. More precisely, a Getzler rescaling calculus, as well as a Block-Fox calculus of asymptotic operators, is constructed for all transversely spin…

We construct the holonomy groupoid of any singular foliation. In the regular case this groupoid coincides with the usual holonomy groupoid of Winkelnkemper (1983); the same holds in the singular cases of Bigonnet and Pradines (1985) and…

Let $k$ be a regular ring, and let $A,B$ be essentially finite type $k$-algebras. For any functor $F:{D}(A)\times\dots\times{D}(A)\to{D}(B)$ between their derived categories, we define its twist…

Let $M$ be a compact manifold. and $D$ a Dirac type differential operator on $M$. Let $A$ be a $C^*$-algebra. Given a bundle $W$ of $A$-modules over $M$ (with connection), the operator $D$ can be twisted with this bundle. One can then use a…

Given $\mathfrak{F}$ a coherent sheaf on a Noetherian integral algebraic stack $\mathfrak{P}$, we give two constructions of stacks $\widetilde{\mathfrak{P}}$, equipped with birational morphisms $p:\widetilde{\mathfrak{P}}\to \mathfrak{P}$…

We give a superconnection proof of an index theorem for a Dirac-type operator that is invariant with respect to the action of a foliation groupoid.

We introduce a periodic form of the iterated algebraic K-theory of ku, the (connective) complex K-theory spectrum, as well as a natural twisting of this cohomology theory by higher gerbes. Furthermore, we prove a form of topological…

Let M be a complete n-dimensional Riemannian spin manifold, partitioned by q two-sided hypersurfaces which have a compact transverse intersection N and which in addition satisfy a certain coarse transversality condition. Let E be a…

We present a geometric construction of push-forward maps along projective morphisms for cohomology theories representable in the stable motivic homotopy category assuming that the element corresponding to the stable Hopf map is inverted in…

In this work we investigate 5-dimensional theories obtained from M-theory on genus one fibered threefolds which exhibit twisted algebras in their fibers. We provide a base-independent algebraic description of the threefolds and compute…

We consider twisted equivariant K--theory for actions of a compact Lie group $G$ on a space $X$ where all the isotropy subgroups are connected and of maximal rank. We show that the associated rational spectral sequence \`a la Segal has a…
