Using vertex algebra techniques, we determine a set of generators for the cohomology ring of the Hilbert schemes of points on an arbitrary smooth projective surface over the field of complex numbers.

In this paper, we consider the Hermitian $K$-theory of schemes with involution, for which we construct a transfer morphism and prove a version of the d\'{e}vissage theorem. This theorem is then used to compute the Hermitian $K$-theory of…

In recent works, [20],[21], descendent integrals on the moduli space of Riemann surfaces with boundary were defined. It was conjectured in [20] that the generating function of these integrals satisfies the open KdV equations. In this paper…

Algebraic K-theory has applications in a broad range of mathematical subjects, from number theory to functional analysis. It is also fiendishly hard to calculate. Presently there are two main inroads: motivic and cyclic homology. I've been…

Let $R$ be the homogeneous coordinate ring of a smooth projective variety $X$ over a field $\k$ of characteristic~0. We calculate the $K$-theory of $R$ in terms of the geometry of the projective embedding of $X$. In particular, if $X$ is a…

A characteristic property of cohomology with compact support is the long exact sequence that connects the compactly supported cohomology groups of a space, an open subspace and its complement. Given an arbitrary cohomology theory of…

We prove that for torsion-free amenable ample groupoids, an isomorphism in groupoid homology induced by an \'etale correspondence yields an isomorphism in the K-theory of the associated $\mathrm{C}^\ast$-algebras. We apply this to extend X.…

Geometric representations of cycles in quandle homology theory are given in terms of colored knot diagrams. Abstract knot diagrams are generalized to diagrams with exceptional points which, when colored, correspond to degenerate cycles.…

Index maps taking values in the $K$-theory of a mapping cone are defined and discussed. The resulting index theorem can be viewed in analogy with the Freed-Melrose index theorem. The framework of geometric $K$-homology is used in a…

We prove the standard conjectures for complex projective varieties that are deformations of the Hilbert scheme of points on a K3 surface. The proof involves Verbitsky's theory of hyperholomorphic sheaves and a study of the cohomology…

The purpose of this note is to show that a connection with closed skewsymmetric torsion and reducible holonomy admits a locally defined Riemannian submersion together with a projected geometry on the base. We reframe known submersion…

We study free dg-Lie algebroids over arbitrary derived schemes, and compute their universal enveloping and jet algebras. We also introduce derived twisted connections, and relate them with lifts on twisted square zero extensions. This…

Let G be a discrete group. We give methods to compute for a generalized (co-)homology theory its values on the Borel construction (EG x X)/G of a proper G-CW-complex X satisfying certain finiteness conditions. In particular we give formulas…

In this paper, we construct a new homology theory for semi-groups satisfying the self distributivity axiom or the idempotency axiom. Next, we consider the geometric realization corresponding to the homology theory. We continue with the…

We give a direct combinatorial proof that the product of two descent classes in a symmetric group is a sum of descent classes. The proof is based on the fact that the group product gives a covering map when descent classes are endowed with…

Based on the well-established theory of discrete conjugate nets in discrete differential geometry, we propose and examine discrete analogues of important objects and notions in the theory of semi-Hamiltonian systems of hydrodynamic type. In…

We prove an analog of Gromov--Lawson type relative index theorems for K-homology classes.

Grothendieck's formal functions theorem states that the coherent cohomology of a Noetherian scheme can be recovered from that of a blowup and the infinitesimal thickenings of the center and of the exceptional divisor of the blowup. In this…
