A generalized-homology bordism-theory is constructed, such that for certain manifold homotopy stratified sets (MHSS; Quinn-spaces) homeomorphism-invariant geometric fundamental-classes exist. The construction combines three ideas: Firstly,…
In this paper we study higher even Gaussian maps of the canonical bundle for cyclic trigonal curves. More precisely, we study suitable restrictions of these maps determining a lower bound for the rank, and more generally, a lower bound for…
We revisit Spakula's uniform K-homology, construct the external product for it and use this to deduce homotopy invariance of uniform K-homology. We define uniform K-theory and on manifolds of bounded geometry we give an interpretation of it…
We study complex solvmanifolds $\Gamma\backslash G$ with holomorphically trivial canonical bundle. We show that the trivializing section of this bundle can be either invariant or non-invariant by the action of $G$. First we characterize the…
A duality is discussed for Lie group bundles vs. certain tensor categories with non-simple identity, in the setting of Nistor-Troitsky gauge-equivariant K-theory. As an application, we study C*-algebra bundles with fibre a fixed-point…
On the projective plane there is a unique cubic root of the canonical bundle and this root is acyclic. On fake projective planes such root exists and is unique if there are no 3-torsion divisors (and usually exists, but not unique,…
We prove a general specialization theorem which implies stable irrationality for a wide class of quadric surface bundles over rational surfaces. As an application, we solve with the exception of two cases, the stable rationality problem for…
We prove that, for closed exact embedded Lagrangian submanifolds of cotangent bundles, the homomorphism of homotopy groups induced by the stable Lagrangian Gauss map vanishes. In particular, we prove that this map is null-homotopic for all…
We present a smooth, complete toric threefold with no nontrivial nef line bundles. This is a counterexample to a recent conjecture of Fujino.
We consider F-theory compactifications on a mirror pair of elliptic Calabi-Yau threefolds. This yields two different six-dimensional theories, each of them being nonperturbatively equivalent to some compactification of heterotic strings on…
We give a concrete expression of a minimal singular metric of a big line bundle on a compact K\"ahler manifold which is the total space of a toric bundle over a complex torus. In this class of manifolds, Nakayama constructed examples which…
We prove that the twisted K-homology of a simply connected simple Lie group G of rank n is an exterior algebra on n-1 generators tensor a cyclic group. We give a detailed description of the order of this cyclic group in terms of the…
We prove some lower bounds on certain twists of the canonical bundle of a codimension-2 subvariety of a generic hypersurface in projective space. In particular we prove that the generic sextic threefold contains no rational or elliptic…
We study the space of stability conditions on the total space of the canonical line bundle over the three dimensional projective space. We construct a family of geometric stability conditions and some subset of the boudary of them, which…
Let $\cA$ be a commutative unital Banach algebra, $\g$ be a semisimple complex Lie algebra and $G(\cA)$ be the 1-connected Banach--Lie group with Lie algebra $\g \otimes \cA$. Then there is a natural concept of a parabolic subgroup $P(\cA)$…
We extend the construction of canonical bases for cluster algebras from unpunctured surfaces to the case where the number of marked points is one, and we show that the cluster algebra is equal to the upper cluster algebra in this case.
It is well known that the $[0,1]$ and $[0,2]$ Postnikov truncations of the units of the topological $K$-theories $\glone \KO$ and $\glone \KU$, respectively, are split, and that the splitting is provided by the ($\Z/2$-graded) line bundles.…
In this note we study properties of partially ample line bundles on simplicial projective toric varieties. We prove that the cone of q-ample line bundles is a union of rational polyhedral cones, and calculate these cones in examples. We…
We extend the results of the eprint math.AG/0204256, obtained with Herb Clemens, about sections of nonnegative twists of the canonical bundle of subvarieties of generic hypersurfaces, to the case of the (-1) twist.
We prove the existence of topological rings in (0,2) theories containing non-anomalous left-moving U(1) currents by which they may be twisted. While the twisted models are not topological, their ground operators form a ring under…
