For a closed, oriented, odd dimensional manifold $X$, we define the rho invariant $\rho(X,E,H)$ for the twisted odd signature operator valued in a flat hermitian vector bundle $E$, where $H = \sum i^{j+1} H_{2j+1}$ is an odd-degree closed…
This note announces a general construction of characteristic currents for singular connections on a vector bundle. It develops, in particular, a Chern-Weil-Simons theory for smooth bundle maps $\alpha : E \rightarrow F$ which, for smooth…
We introduce a notion of a homological index of a holomorphic 1-form on a germ of a complex analytic variety with an isolated singularity, inspired by X. G\'omez-Mont and G.-M. Greuel. For isolated complete intersection singularities it…
We construct a map from $d|1$-dimensional Euclidean field theories to complexified K-theory when $d=1$ and complex analytic elliptic cohomology when $d=2$. This provides further evidence for the Stolz--Teichner program, while also…
We define an index of a collection of 1-forms on a complex isolated complete intersection singularity corresponding to a Chern number and, in the case when the 1-forms are complex analytic, express it as the dimension of a certain algebra.
We employ combinatorial techniques to present an explicit formula for the coefficients in front of Chern classes involving in the Hattori-Stong integrability conditions. We also give an evenness condition for the signature of stably…
We derive new Poincar\'e-series representations for infinite families of non-holomorphic modular invariant functions that include modular graph forms as they appear in the low-energy expansion of closed-string scattering amplitudes at genus…
We propose singular variants of the Singer-Hopf conjecture, formulated in terms of the Euler-Mather characteristic, intersection homology Euler characteristic and, resp., virtual Euler characteristic of a closed irreducible subvariety of an…
We give a complete classification of the Chern characters of constructive exceptional vector bundles on $\mathbb{P}^3$ analogous to the work of Dr\'ezet and Le Potier on $\mathbb{P}^2$, and using this classification prove that a…
We consider smooth moduli spaces of semistable vector bundles of fixed rank and determinant on a compact Riemann surface $X$ of genus at least $3$. The choice of a Poincar\'e bundle for such a moduli space $M$ induces an isomorphism between…
Let E/Q be an elliptic curve with a fixed modular parametrization F : X_0(N) --> E and let P_1,...,P_r be Heegner points on E attached to the rings of integers of distinct quadratic imaginary field k_1,...,k_r. We prove that if the odd…
J. H. C. Whitehead gave an elegant integral formula for the Hopf invariant H(p) of a smooth map p from the 3-sphere to the 2-sphere. Given an open book structure b on the 3-sphere (or, essentially equivalently, an isolated critical point of…
Using Fourier-Mukai transformations, we prove some results about the ring of unipotent vector bundles on elliptic curves in positive characteristics. This ring was determined by Atiyah in characteristic zero, who showed that it is a…
This paper is concerned with closed orbits of non-smooth vector fields on the plane. For a subclass of non-smooth vector fields we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of canard kind solutions. By means of a…
We prove that a rational linear combination of Chern numbers is an oriented diffeomorphism invariant of smooth complex projective varieties if and only if it is a linear combination of the Euler and Pontryagin numbers. In dimension at least…
An \emph{$\mathbb{R}$-join-type curve} is a curve in $\mathbb{C}^2$ defined by an equation of the form \begin{equation*} a\cdot\prod_{j=1}^\ell (y-\beta_j)^{\nu_j} = b\cdot\prod_{i=1}^m (x-\alpha_i)^{\lambda_i}, \end{equation*} where the…
The aim of this note is to point out that Chern characters can be computed using curvatures o ``super-connections up to homotopy'. We also present an application to the vanishing theorem for Lie algebroids which is at the origin of new…
In $64$ E. Lima proved that commuting vector fields on surfaces with non-zero Euler characteristic have common zeros. Such statement is empty in dimension $3$, since all the Euler characteristics vanish. Nevertheless,…
Given a vector bundle $\mathcal E$ on a connected compact complex manifold $X$, [FLS] use a notion of completed Hochschild homology $\hat{\text{HH}}$ of $\text{Diff}(\mathcal E)$ such that $\hat{\text{HH}}_0(\text{Diff}(\mathcal E))$ is…
A relation is proved between the Poincar\'{e} series of the coordinate algebra of a two-dimensional quasihomogeneous isolated hypersurface singularity and the characteristic polynomial of its monodromy operator. For a Kleinian singularity…
