Let $X$ be the wonderful compactification of a complex adjoint symmetric space $G/K$ such that $rk(G/K)=rk(G)-rk(K)$. We show how to extend equivariant vector bundles on $G/K$ to equivariant vector bundles on $X$, generated by their global…

We construct a new equivariant cohomology theory for a certain class of differential vertex algebras, which we call the chiral equivariant cohomology. A principal example of a differential vertex algebra in this class is the chiral de Rham…

The Dixmier-Douady invariant is the primary tool in the classification of continuous trace $C^*$-algebras. This expository note explores its properties from the perspective of classical algebraic topology.

We consider here the category of diffeological vector pseudo-bundles, and study a possible extension of classical differential geometric tools on finite dimensional vector bundles, namely, the group of automorphisms, the frame bundle, the…

Let $X$ be a connected topological space and $c \in \mathrm{H}^2(X;\mathbb{Z})$ a non-zero cohomology class. A $\mathrm{Homeo}(X,c)$-bundle is a fiber bundle with fiber $X$ whose structure group reduces to the group $\mathrm{Homeo}(X,c)$ of…

Using a homological invariant together with an obstruction class in a certain Ext^2-group, we may classify objects in triangulated categories that have projective resolutions of length two. This invariant gives strong classification results…

Davydov-Yetter (DY) cohomology is a cohomology theory for linear semigroupal (i.e.~monoidal but not necessarily categories and functors, measuring deformations of their coherence isomorphisms. We show that DY cohomology is invariant under…
