An introduction to circle valued Morse theory and Novikov homology, from an algebraic point of view.

We consider a compact manifold of dimension greater than 2 and a differential form of degree one which is closed but non-exact. This form, viewed as a multi-valued function has a gradient vector field with respect to any Riemannian metric.…

We consider a non-standard totalisation functor to produce a cochain complex from a given double complex: instead of sums or products, totalisation is defined via truncated products of modules. We give an elementary proof of the fact that a…

Let A be an essential complex hyperplane arrangement in an n-dimensional complex vector space V. Let H denote the union of the hyperplanes, and M denote the complement to H in V. We develop the real-valued and circle-valued Morse theory for…

We consider systems $(M,\omega,g)$ with $M$ a closed smooth manifold, $\omega$ a real valued closed one form and $g$ a Riemannian metric, so that $(\omega,g)$ is a Morse-Smale pair, Definition~2. We introduce a numerical invariant…

Let C be a bounded cochain complex of finitely generated free modules over the Laurent polynomial ring L = R[x,1/x,y,1/y]. The complex C is called R-finitely dominated if it is homotopy equivalent over R to a bounded complex of finitely…

This paper extends the Alternative to Morse-Novikov theory we have proposed in Burghelea (New topological invariants for real- and angle valued maps, World Scientific, Hackensack, 2018) from real- and angle-valued map to closed 1-forms. For…

Let M be a closed n-dimensional manifold, n > 2, whose first real cohomology group H 1 (M ; R) is non-zero. We present a general method for constructing a Morse 1-form $\alpha$ on M , closed but non-exact, and a pseudo-gradient X such that…

We obtain rigidity and gluing results for the Morse complex of a real-valued Morse function as well as for the Novikov complex of a circle-valued Morse function. A rigidity result is also proved for the Floer complex of a hamiltonian…

For each manifold or effective orbifold $Y$ and commutative ring $R$, we define a new homology theory $MH_*(Y;R)$, $M$-$homology$, and a new cohomology theory $MH^*(Y;R)$, $M$-$cohomology$. For $MH_*(Y;R)$ the chain complex…

We view Dolbeault-Morse-Novikov cohomology H^{p,q}_\eta(X) as the cohomology of the sheaf \Omega_{X,\eta}^p of \eta-holomorphic p-forms and give several bimeromorphic invariants. Analogue to Dolbeault cohomology, we establish the…

We continue the study of the twisted Novikov homology, introduced in our joint paper with H.Goda (arXiv:math.DG/0312374), and its generalizations. The main applications of the developed algebraic techniques are to the topology of…

Inspired by the recent works of S. Rao--S. Yang--X.-D. Yang and L. Meng on the blow-up formulae for de Rham and Morse--Novikov cohomology groups, we give a new simple proof of the blow-up formula for Morse--Novikov cohomology by introducing…

Using techniques developed for studying polynomially bounded cohomology, we show that the assembly map for $K_*^t(\ell^1(G))$ is rationally injective for all finitely presented discrete groups $G$. This verifies the $\ell^1$-analogue of the…

We consider the problem of whether it is possible to improve the Novikov inequalities for closed 1-forms, or any other inequalities of a similar nature, if we assume, additionally, that the given 1-form is harmonic with respect to some…

Let $R$ be a strongly $\mathbb{Z}^2$-graded ring, and let $C$ be a bounded chain complex of finitely generated free $R$-modules. The complex $C$ is $R_{(0,0)}$-finitely dominated, or of type FP over $R_{(0,0)}$, if it is chain homotopy…

A class of multi-component integrable systems associated to Novikov algebras, which interpolate between KdV and Camassa-Holm type equations, is obtained. The construction is based on the classification of low-dimensional Novikov algebras by…

Nekovar and Niziol have introduced in [arxiv:1309.7620] a version of syntomic cohomology valid for arbitrary varieties over p-adic fields. This uses a mapping cone construction similar to the rigid syntomic cohomology of the first author in…

In this paper, we define a relative Morse complex for manifold with boundary using the handlebody decomposition of the manifold. We prove that the homology of the relative Morse complex is isomorphic to the relative singular homology.…

For a continuous angle-valued map defined on a compact ANR, a fixed field and any degree one proposes a refinement of the Novikov-Betti number and of the Novikov homology of the pair consisting of the ANR and the degree one integral…
