We prove a duality theorem for Cohen--Macaulay simplicial complexes. This is a generalisation of Poincar\'e Duality, framed in the language of combinatorial sheaves. Our treatment is self-contained and accessible for readers with a working…

We exhibit Pontryagin duality as a special case of Stone duality in a continuous logic setting. More specifically, given an abelian topological group $A$, and $\mathcal F$ the family (group) of continuous homomorphisms from $A$ to the…

This is a further investigation of our approach to group actions in homological algebra in the settings of homology of {\Gamma}-simplicial groups, particularly of {\Gamma}-equivariant homology and cohomology of {\Gamma}-groups. This…

We prove a conjecture of Bhatt-Hansen that derived pushforwards along proper morphisms of rigid-analytic spaces commute with Verdier duality on Zariski-constructible complexes. In particular, this yields duality statements for the…

Shellability is a well-known combinatorial criterion for verifying that a simplicial complex is Cohen-Macaulay. Another notion familiar to commutative algebraists, but which has not received as much attention from combinatorialists as the…

This paper is our first step in establishing a de Rham model for equivariant twisted $K$-theory using machinery from noncommutative geometry. Let $G$ be a compact Lie group, $M$ a compact manifold on which $G$ acts smoothly. For any $\alpha…

The Alexandroff-\v{C}ech normal cohomology theory [Mor$_1$], [Bar], [Ba$_1$],[Ba$_2$] is the unique continuous extension \cite{Wat} of the additive cohomology theory [Mil], [Ber-Mdz$_1$] from the category of polyhedral pairs…

Given a locally compact group $G=Q\ltimes V$ such that $V$ is Abelian and such that the action of $Q$ on the Pontryagin dual $\hat V$ has a free orbit of full measure, we construct a family of unitary dual $2$-cocycles $\Omega_\omega$ (aka…

Given an extension $0\to V\to G\to Q\to1$ of locally compact groups, with $V$ abelian, and a compatible essentially bijective $1$-cocycle $\eta\colon Q\to\hat V$, we define a dual unitary $2$-cocycle on $G$ and show that the associated…

If $G$ is a group which admits a manifold model for $\mathrm{B}G$ then $G$ is a Poincar\'e duality group. We study a generalisation of Poincar\'e duality groups, introduced initially by Davis and Leary, motivated by groups $G$ with…

We associate to a pseudomanifold $X$ with isolated singularities a differentiable groupoid $G$ which plays the role of the tangent space of $X$. We construct a Dirac element $D$ and a Dual Dirac element $\lambda$ such that $D$ and $\lambda$…

We develop a theory of chain complex double-cobordism for chain complexes equipped with Poincar\'{e} duality. The resulting double-cobordism groups are a refinement of Ranicki's torsion algebraic $L$-groups for localisations of a…

Let $c:\mathcal{G}\to\R$ be a cocycle on a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ with Haar system. Under some mild conditions (satisfied by all integer valued cocycles on \'{e}tale groupoids), $c$ gives rise to an unbounded odd…

We use the anti-equivalence between Cohen-Macaulay complexes and coherent sheaves on formal schemes to shed light on some older results and prove new results. We bring out the relations between a coherent sheaf M satisfying an S_2 condition…

In the present paper we prove a duality theory for compact groups in the case when the C*-algebra A, the fixed point algebra of the corresponding Hilbert C*-system (F,G), has a nontrivial center Z and the relative commutant satisfies the…

Let G be a locally compact group, let X be a universal proper G-space, and let Z be a G-equivariant compactification of X that is H-equivariantly contractible for each compact subgroup H of G. Let W be the resulting boundary. Assuming the…

We study the closed group of homeomorphisms of the boundary of real hyperbolic space generated by a cocompact Kleinian group $G_1$ and a quasiconformal conjugate $h^{-1}G_2 h$ of a cocompact group $G_2$. We show that if the conjugacy $h$ is…

The goal of this papers is to extending to the complex analytic framework the relative Kleiman duality for quasi coherent sheaves. Precisely, he show that for any flat,locally projectivea and finitely presented morphism of schemes…

We study partial homology and cohomology from ring theoretic point of view via the partial group algebra $\mathbb{K}_{par}G$. In particular, we link the partial homology and cohomology of a group $G$ with coefficients in an irreducible…

Let G be a locally compact group acting smoothly and properly by isometries on a complete Riemannian manifold M, with compact quotient. There is an assembly map which associates to any G-equivariant K-homology class on M, an element of the…
