In this paper we consider the asymptotic behavior of invariants such as Betti numbers, minimal numbers of generators of singular homology, the order of the torsion subgroup of singular homology, and torsion invariants. We will show that all…

VSI (`vanishing scalar invariant') spacetimes have zero values for all total scalar contractions of all polynomials in the Riemann tensor and its covariant derivatives. However, there are other ways of concocting local scalar invariants…

We define the $S^1$-equivariant Rabinowitz-Floer homology of a bounding contact hypersurface $\Sigma$ in an exact symplectic manifold, and show by a geometric argument that it vanishes if $\Sigma$ is displaceable. In the appendix we…

Scalar curvature invariants are studied in type N solutions of vacuum Einstein's equations with in general non-vanishing cosmological constant Lambda. Zero-order invariants which include only the metric and Weyl (Riemann) tensor either…

Cohomology support loci of rank one local systems of a smooth quasiprojective complex algebraic variety are finite unions of torsion-translated complex subtori of the character variety of the fundamental group. Tangent spaces of the…

We develop new invariants similar to the Bieri-Strebel-Neumann-Renz invariants but in the category of Bredon modules (with respect to the class of the finite subgroups of G). We prove that for virtually soluble groups of type FP_{\infty}…

In their previous works arXiv:2105.11026, arXiv:2206.10749, Cristofaro-Gardiner, Humili\`ere, Mak, Seyfaddini and Smith defined links spectral invariants on connected compact surfaces and used them to show various results on the algebraic…

We prove that singular cohomology of the underlying space of Berkovich's analytification of a scheme $X$ locally of finite type over a trivially-valued field $k$ of characteristic $0$ is isomorphic to cdh-cohomology with integer…

In this paper we develop the homological version of $\Sigma$-theory for locally compact Hausdorff groups, leaving the homotopical version for another paper. Both versions are connected by a Hurewicz-like theorem. They can be thought of as…

We study the Berkovich analytification of the space of genus $0$ logarithmic stable maps to a toric variety $X$ and present applications to both algebraic and tropical geometry. On algebraic side, insights from tropical geometry give two…

We introduce and study the vanishing homology of singular projective hypersurfaces. We prove its concentration in two levels in case of 1-dimensional singular locus $\Sigma$, and moreover determine the ranks of the nontrivial homology…

We formulate a very general conjecture relating the analytical invariants of a normal surface singularity to the Seiberg-Witten invariants of its link provided that the link is a rational homology sphere. As supporting evidence, we…

We study the homology jump loci of a chain complex over an affine \k-algebra. When the chain complex is the first page of the equivariant spectral sequence associated to a regular abelian cover of a finite-type CW-complex, we relate those…

Let St denote the Steinberg module of $SL_n(Q)$ tensored with Q. Let Sh denote the sharbly resolution of St. By Borel-Serre duality, $H^{n(n-1)/2-i}(SL_n(Z),Q)$ is isomorphic to $H_i(SL_n(Z),St)$. The latter is isomorphic to the homology of…

With the use of mathematical techniques of tropical geometry, it was shown by Mikhalkin some twenty years ago that certain Gromov-Witten invariants associated with topological quantum field theories of pseudoholomorphic maps can be computed…

We study relative Seiberg-Witten moduli spaces and define relative invariants for a pair $(X,\Sigma)$ consisting of a smooth, closed, oriented 4-manifold $X$ and a smooth, closed, oriented 2-dimensional submanifold $\Sigma\!\subset\!X$ with…

We establish the continuous homotopy invariance of bivariant local cyclic homology on the category of all \sigma-C^*-algebras. The argument relies vitally on an isomorphism between the smooth and continuous cylinder constructions using a…

We use K-area homology to summarize some results about the Novikov conjecture and the Hirzebruch L-class. In fact, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for closed manifolds to have a homotopy invariant L-class. In order to obtain…

We investigate the Bieri--Neumann--Strebel--Renz (BNSR) invariants of irreducible uniform lattices. In the case of a direct product of a tree and a Euclidean space we show that vanishing of the BNSR invariants for all finite-index subgroups…

New estimates are derived concerning the behavior of self-dual hamonic 2-forms on a compact Riemannian 4-manifold with non-trivial Seiberg-Witten invariants. Applications include a vanishing theorem for certain Seiberg-Witten invariants on…
