Let l be a prime and G a pro-l group with torsion-free abelianization. We produce group-theoretic analogues of the Johnson/Morita cocycle for G -- in the case of surface groups, these cocycles appear to refine existing constructions when…
We define analogues of homogeneous coordinate algebras for noncommutative two-tori with real multiplication. We prove that the categories of standard holomorphic vector bundles on such noncommutative tori can be described in terms of graded…
We explore a relationship between the classical representation theory of a complex, semisimple Lie algebra \g and the resonance varieties R(V,K)\subset V^* attached to irreducible \g-modules V and submodules K\subset V\wedge V. In the…
For a oriented genus g surface with one boundary component, S, the Torelli group is the group of orientation preserving homeomorphisms of S that induce the identity on homology. The Magnus representation of the Torelli group represents the…
Let $g$ be a reductive Lie algebra over a field of characteristic zero. Suppose $g$ acts on a complex of vector spaces $M$ by $i_\lambda$ and $L_\lambda$, which satisfy the identities as contraction and Lie derivative do for smooth…
We give a new proof of the theorem of Birman-Powell that the Torelli subgroup of the mapping class group of a closed orientable surface of genus at least 3 is generated by simple homeomorphisms known as bounding pair maps. The key…
Let g be a semisimple Lie algebra over the complex numbers. Fix a positive integer l (called the level). Let R(l,g) be the fusion algebra at level l. Then, there is an algebra homomorphism from the representation ring R(g) of g to R(l,g).…
We classify the finite connected simple graphs whose edge rings are strongly Koszul. From the classification, it follows that if the edge ring is strongly Koszul, then its toric ideal possesses a quadratic Gr\"obner basis.
Let $X$ be a toric variety. Rationally Borel-Moore homology of $X$ is isomorphic to the homology of the Koszul complex $A^T_*(X)\otimes \Lambda^\x M$, where $A^T_*(X)$ is the equivariant Chow group and $M$ is the character group of $T$.…
This work concerns the study of properties of a group of Koszul algebras coming from the toric ideals of a chordal bipartite infinite family of graphs (alternately, these rings may be interpreted as coming from determinants of certain…
Using reduction to positive characteristic and the method of Frobenius splitting of diagonals, due to Mehta and Ramanathan, it is shown that homogeneous coordinate rings for either proper and smooth toric varieties or Schubert varieties are…
Firstly we show a generalization of the (1,1)-Lefschetz theorem for projective toric orbifolds and secondly we prove that on 2k-dimensional quasi-smooth hypersurfaces coming from quasi-smooth intersection surfaces, under the Cayley trick,…
Let $S$ be a closed connected oriented surface of genus $g>0$. We study a Poisson subalgebra $W_1(g)$ of $C^{\infty}(\mathrm{Hom}(\pi_1(S), \mathrm{GL}(1, \mathbb{R}))/\mathrm{GL}(1, \mathbb{R}))$, the smooth functions on the moduli space…
We prove an analogue of Koszul duality for category $\mathcal{O}$ of a reductive group $G$ in positive characteristic $\ell$ larger than 1 plus the number of roots of $G$. However there are no Koszul rings, and we do not prove an analogue…
In this paper we prove that the Torelli group of a surface of genus at least 3 with 2 boundary components is finitely generated. As a consequence, we answer Putman's question on the finite generation of the stabilizer subgroup of the…
We give a complete picture of the interaction between Koszul and Ringel dualities for graded standardly stratified algebras (in the sense of Cline, Parshall and Scott) admitting linear tilting (co)resolutions of standard and proper…
Let $A$ be a Koszul (or more generally, $N$-Koszul) Calabi-Yau algebra. Inspired by the works of Kontsevich, Ginzburg and Van den Bergh, we show that there is a derived non-commutative Poisson structure on $A$, which induces a graded Lie…
Koszul algebras with quadratic Groebner bases, called strong Koszul algebras, are studied. We introduce affine algebraic varieties whose points are in one-to-one correspondence with certain strong Koszul algebras and we investigate the…
The contraction of the image of the Johnson homomorphism is called the Chillingworth class. In this paper, we derive a combinatorial description of the Chillingworth class for Putman's subsurface Torelli groups. We also prove the naturality…
We consider partitions of a set with $r$ elements ordered by refinement. We consider the simplicial complex $\bar{K}(r)$ formed by chains of partitions which starts at the smallest element and ends at the largest element of the partition…
