We explain why on certain five-manifolds, topological 5d $\mathcal{N} = 2$ gauge theory of Haydys-Witten twist with gauge group $G$, is dual to that of Geyer-M\"{u}lsch twist with gauge group $^LG$, where $G$ is a real, compact Lie group…
The Dold$-$Thom theorem states that for a sufficiently nice topological space, M, there is an isomorphism between the homotopy groups of the infinite symmetric product of M and the homology groups of M itself. The crux of most known proofs…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over the complex numbers and $S(d)$ the scheme parametrizing $d$-dimensional Lie subalgebras of $H^0(X,\mathcal{T} X)$. This article is dedicated to the study of the geometry of the moduli space…
The signature of closed oriented manifolds is well-known to be multiplicative under finite covers. This fails for Poincar\'e complexes as examples of C. T. C. Wall show. We establish the multiplicativity of the signature, and more…
We construct and study general connections on Lie groupoids and differentiable stacks as well as on principal bundles over them using Atiyah sequences associated to transversal tangential distributions.
We study the topological full group of ample groupoids over locally compact spaces. We extend Matui's definition of the topological full group from the compact, to the locally compact case. We provide two general classes of groupoids for…
We study the invariant algebraic D-modules on an affine variety under the action of an algebraic group.For linear algebraic groups with the multiplication action by themselves, such D-modules correspond to representations of their Lie…
In this paper we identify QD(A,B), the quasidiagonal classes in KK_1(A,B), in terms of K_*(A) and K_*(B), and we use these results in various applications. Here is our central result. Theorem: Suppose that A is in the category of separable…
Let $G$ be a one-dimensional $\ell$-subgroup of the group $\mathcal{F}(X,\mathbb{Z})$ of integer-valued functions on a set $X$. We show that $G$ is free under some hypothesis on the spectrum of $G$ and on its quotient groups at the prime…
The main goal of this paper is to study the formal geometry of dg manifolds \`a la Fedosov. For any dg manifold $(\mathcal{M}, Q)$, we construct a Fedosov dg foliation (or dg Lie algebroid) $\mathcal{F}_Q \to \mathcal{N}_Q$. We establish…
We show that any continuous $\mathbf{C}$-linear Lie algebra splitting of the symbol map from the Atiyah algebra of a vector bundle on a complex manifold is given by a differential operator of order at most the rank of the bundle plus one.…
We consider a $(2q+1)$-dimensional smooth manifold $M$ equipped with a $(q+1)$-dimensional, a priori non-integrable, distribution ${\cal D}$ and a $q$-vector field ${\bf T}=T_1\wedge\ldots\wedge T_q$, where $\{T_i\}$ are linearly…
We study the geometric properties of holomorphic distributions of totally null $m$-planes on a $(2m+\epsilon)$-dimensional complex Riemannian manifold $(\mathcal{M}, \bm{g})$, where $\epsilon \in {0,1}$ and $m \geq 2$. In particular, given…
In a paper by the authors, the associative and the Lie algebras of Weyl type $A[D]=A\otimes F[D]$ were introduced, where $A$ is a commutative associative algebra with an identity element over a field $F$ of any characteristic, and $F[D]$ is…
We study the modular class of $Q$-manifolds, and in particular of negatively graded Lie $\infty$-algebroid. We show the equivalence of several descriptions of those classes, that it matches the classes introduced by various authors and that…
We introduce a linearised form of the square root of the Todd class inside the Verbitsky component of a hyper-K\"ahler manifold using the extended Mukai lattice. This enables us to define a Mukai vector for certain objects in the derived…
This expository paper is an introductory text on topological K-theory and the Atiyah-Singer index theorem, suitable for graduate students or advanced undegraduates already possessing a background in algebraic topology. The bulk of the…
The Hirzebruch $td_y(X)$ class of a complex manifold X is a formal combination of Chern characters of the sheaves of differential forms multiplied by the Todd class. The related $\chi_y$-genus admits a generalization for singular complex…
We introduce a notion of derived Azumaya's algebras over rings and schemes. We prove that any such algebra $B$ on a scheme $X$ provides a class $\phi(B)$ in $H^{1}_{et}(X,\mathbb{Z})\times H^{2}_{et}(X,\mathbb{G}_{m})$. We prove that for…
We construct completely integrable systems on the dual of the Lie algebra of any compact Lie group $K$ with respect to the standard Lie-Poisson structure. These systems generalize key properties of Gelfand-Zeitlin systems: A) the pullback…
