Convolution in Borel-Moore homology plays an important role in Nakajima's construction of representations of the Heisenberg algebra and of modified enveloping algebras of Kac-Moody algebras. In its most basic form, convolution between two…
The Local-to-Global-Principle used in the proof of convexity theorems for momentum maps has been extracted as a statement of pure topology enriched with a structure of convexity. We extend this principle to not necessarily closed maps…
Kontsevich constructed a map between `good' graph cocycles $\gamma$ and infinitesimal deformations of Poisson bivectors on affine manifolds, that is, Poisson cocycles in the second Lichnerowicz--Poisson cohomology. For the tetrahedral graph…
Let X be a pointed connected simplicial set with loop group G. The linearisation map in K-theory as defined by Waldhausen uses G-equivariant spaces. This paper gives an alternative description using presheaves of sets and abelian groups on…
Recently, M. Ludewig and G. C. Thiang introduced a notion of a uniformly localized Wannier basis with localization centers in an arbitrary uniformly discrete subset $D$ in a complete Riemannian manifold $X$. They show that, under certain…
Consider a Hamiltonian torus action on a connected symplectic manifold M for which the associated moment map Phi is proper in some sense. Let Q be a closed submanifold of M. We show that under certain local conditions on Q one has…
We construct an example of a Peano continuum $X$ such that: (i) $X$ is a one-point compactification of a polyhedron; (ii) $X$ is weakly homotopy equivalent to a point (i.e. $\pi_n(X)$ is trivial for all $n \geq 0$); (iii) $X$ is…
Let G be a reductive affine group scheme defined over a semilocal ring k. Assume that either G is semisimple or k is normal and noetherian. We show that G has a finite k-subgroup S such that the natural map H^1(R, S) --> H^1(R, G) is…
Let $A$ be an elementary abelian $r$-group with rank at least $3$ that acts faithfully on the finite $r'$-group $G$. Assume that $G$ is $A$-simple, so that $G = K_{1} \times\cdots\times K_{n}$ where $K_{1},\ldots,K_{n}$ is a collection of…
Let X be a normal connected complex algebraic variety equipped with a semisimple complex representation of its fundamental group. Then, under a maximality assumption, we prove that the covering space of X associated to the kernel of the…
We study generalized moment maps for a Hamiltonian action on a connected compact $H$-twisted generalized complex manifold introduced by Lin and Tolman and prove the convexity and connectedness properties of the generalized moment maps for a…
We give a counterexample to a conjecture of D.H. Gottlieb and prove a strengthened version of it. The conjecture says that a map from a finite CW-complex X to an aspherical CW-complex Y with non-zero Euler characteristic can have…
Let $H$ be a closed normal subgroup of a compact Lie group $G$ such that $G/H$ is connected. This paper provides a necessary and sufficient condition for every complex representation of $H$ to be extendible to $G$, and also for every…
Given a Cayley-Hamilton smooth order A in a central simple algebra $\Sigma$, we determine the flat locus of the Brauer-Severi fibration of the smooth order. Moreover, we give a classification of all (reduced) central singularities where the…
Let $Y$ be a normal and projective variety over an algebraically closed field $k$ and $V$ a vector bundle over $Y$. We prove that if there exist a $k$-scheme $X$ and a finite surjective morphism $g:X\to Y$ that trivializes $V$ then $V$ is…
For a reductive group $G$, Steinberg established a map from the Weyl group to the set of nilpotent $G$-orbits by using moment maps on double flag varieties. In particular, in the case of the general linear group, it provides a geometric…
In this paper, we investigate automorphisms of compact K\"ahler manifolds with different levels of topological triviality. In particular, we provide several examples of smooth complex projective surfaces X whose groups of…
We relate Nakajima Quiver Varieties (or, rather, their multiplicative version) with moduli spaces of perverse sheaves. More precisely, we consider a generalization of the concept of perverse sheaves: microlocal sheaves on a nodal curve X.…
Let $X$ be a smooth manifold and $\mathbf{k}$ be a commutative (or at least $\mathbb{E}_2$) ring spectrum. Given a smooth exact Lagrangian $L\hookrightarrow T^*X$, the microlocal sheaf theory (following Kashiwara--Schapira) naturally…
For any unitary representation of an arbitrary Lie group I construct a moment mapping from the space of smooth vectors of the representation into the dual of the Lie algebra. This moment mapping is equivariant and smooth. For the space of…
