The purpose of this work is to bring gravitational theories into play within the quickly developing framework of factorization algebras. We fit the causal structure of Lorentzian manifolds into categorical language, and in the globally…
Homology Hirzebruch characteristic classes for singular varieties have been recently defined by Brasselet-Schuermann-Yokura as an attempt to unify previously known characteristic class theories for singular spaces (e.g., MacPherson-Chern…
A new, configuration-space picture of a formalism of group quantization, the GAQ formalism, is presented in the context of a previous, algebraic generalization. This presentation serves to make a comprehensive discussion in which other…
We introduce the notion of quantum duplicates of an (associative, unital) algebra, motivated by the problem of constructing toy-models for quantizations of certain configuration spaces in quantum mechanics. The proposed (algebraic) model…
In this paper,we extend the definition of the Chern-Simons type characteristic classes in the continuous case to abelian lattice gauge theory. Then, we show that the exterior differential of a k-th Chern-Simons type characteristic class is…
Inspired by the recent work of Chen-Sti\'enon-Xu on Atiyah classes associated to inclusions of Lie algebroids, we give a very simple criterium (in terms of those classes) for relative Poincar\'e-Birkhoff-Witt type results to hold. The tools…
In this paper, we study how global index formulas arise in the theory of one-dimensional holomorphic foliation from the microlocal point of view. We give short proofs and generalizations to a few exisiting index formulas concerning…
In this survey paper we study parametric versions of writing a matrix in $SL_n (\mathbb{C})$ as a product of lower and upper unitriangular matrices in interchanging order as well as generalizations to other classical groups. We give an…
We show that a new multiplicative genus, in the sense of Hirzebruch, can be obtained by generalizing a calculation due to Atiyah and Witten. We introduce this as the $\hat{\Gamma}$-genus, compute its value for some examples and highlight…
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…
Given a vector bundle $E$, we give an explicit formula to compute Chern classes of Schur bundles $\operatorname{S}^\alpha E$ in terms of those of $E$.
We review known factorization results in quaternion matrices. Specifically, we derive the Jordan canonical form, polar decomposition, singular value decomposition, the QR factorization. We prove there is a Schur factorization for commuting…
We prove an Atiyah-Bott-Berline-Vergne type localization formula for Killing foliations in the context of equivariant basic cohomology. As an application, we localize some Chern-Simons type invariants, for example the volume of Sasakian…
We introduce categories of weak factorization algebras and factorization spaces, and prove that they are equivalent to the categories of ordinary factorization algebras and spaces, respectively. This allows us to define the pullback of a…
We find matrix factorization corresponding to an anti-diagonal in ${\mathbb C}P^1 \times {\mathbb C}P^1$, and circle fibers in weighted projective lines using the idea of Chan and Leung of Strominger-Yau-Zaslow transformations. For the tear…
Using the methods of quantisation ideals, we construct a family of quantisations corresponding to Case alpha in Sergeev's classification of solutions to the tetrahedron equation. This solution describes transformations between special…
We develop a general approach to finding combinatorial models for cluster algebras. The approach is to construct a labeled graph called a framework. When a framework is constructed with certain properties, the result is a model…
We introduce basic characteristic classes and numbers as new invariants for Riemannian foliations. If the ambient Riemannian manifold M is simply connected (or more generally if the foliation is a transversely orientable Killing foliation),…
This work extends previous developments carried out by some of the authors on Ehresmann connections on Atiyah Lie algebroids. In this paper, we study Cartan connections in a framework relying on two Atiyah Lie algebroids based on a…
Given a chiral algebra, we study modules over an arbitrary power of a curve. We describe this category in three different ways: in terms of factorization, in terms of certain chiral operations and as modules for a lie algebra in a certain…
