We employ a certain labeled finite graph, called a chart, in a closed oriented surface for describing the monodromy of a(n achiral) Lefschetz fibration over the surface. Applying charts and their moves with respect to Wajnryb's presentation…

We prove a canonical Kunneth decomposition for the motive of a commutative group scheme over a field. Moreover, we show that this decomposition behaves under the group law just as in cohomology. We also deduce applications of the…

We show that a fairly arbitrary Frechet space topology on the space of holomorphic functions on a domain controls the topology of uniform convergence on compact sets. In fact it turns out that the result we present can be proved more simply…

We introduce a theory of integration with respect to the fixed point index, offering a substantial improvement over previous approaches based on the Lefschetz number. This framework eliminates several restrictive assumptions -- such as the…

In this article, we consider regular projective arithmetic schemes in the context of Arakelov geometry, any of which is endowed with an action of the diagonalisable group scheme associated to a finite cyclic group and with an equivariant…

We obtain an equivariant index theorem, or Lefschetz fixed-point formula, for isometries from complete Riemannian manifolds to themselves. The fixed-point set of such an isometry may be noncompact. We build on techniques developed by Roe.…

We show an equivalence of categories, over general $p$-adic bases, between finite locally $p^n$-torsion commutative group schemes and $\Int/p^n\Int$-modules in perfect $F$-gauges of Tor amplitude $[-1,0]$ with Hodge-Tate weights $0,1$. By…

We prove an analog of the holomorphic Lefschetz formula for endofunctors of smooth compact dg-categories. We deduce from it a generalization of the Lefschetz formula of V. Lunts that takes the form of a reciprocity law for a pair of…

We formulate and analyze several finiteness conjectures for linear algebraic groups over higher-dimensional fields. In fact, we prove all of these conjectures for algebraic tori as well as in some other situations. This work relies in an…

We prove that the Newton polygons of Frobenius on the crystalline cohomology of proper smooth varieties satisfy a symmetry that results, in the case of projective smooth varieties, from Poincar\'e duality and the hard Lefschetz theorem. As…

Recently the author presented a new approach to solving the coefficient problems for various classes of holomorphic functions $f(z) = \sum\limits_0^\infty c_n z^n$, not necessarily univalent. This approach is based on lifting the given…

Cohomology of a topological space with coefficients in stacks of abelian 2-groups is considered. A 2-categorical analog of the theorem of Grothendieck is proved, relating cohomology of the space with coefficients in a 2-stage spectrum and…

We prove a relative version of the Picard-Lefschetz theorem, describing the variation of relative homology groups $H_d(Y_t \setminus A_t,B_t\setminus A_t)$ in the fibers of a smooth fiber bundle $Y \to T$ of complex manifolds with $A\cup B…

Consider a Hamiltonian action of a compact Lie group on a symplectic manifold which has the strong Lefschetz property. We establish an equivariant version of the Merkulov-Guillemin $d\delta$-lemma and an improved version of the…

Given a closed symplectic manifold, we study when the Lefschetz decomposition induced by the $\mathfrak{sl}(2;\mathbb{R})$-representation yields a decomposition of the de Rham cohomology. In particular, this holds always true for the second…

Most applications of the hard Lefschetz theorem related to combinatorial properties of simplicial complexes involve their $h$-vectors. In the context of positivity properties involving $h$-vectors of flag spheres, $f$-vectors with a…

We show the existence of a hypersurface that contains a given closed subscheme of a projective space over a finite field and intersects a smooth quasi-projective scheme smoothly, under some condition on the dimension. This generalizes a…

We introduce a general framework for studying fields equipped with operators, given as co-ordinate functions of homomorphisms into a local algebra $\mathcal{D}$, satisfying various compatibility conditions that we denote by $\Gamma$ and…

The purpose of this note is to explain a combinatorial description of closed smooth oriented 4-manifolds in terms of positive Dehn twist factorizations of surface mapping classes, and further explore these connections. This is obtained via…

Every finitely presented group is the fundamental group of the total space of a Lefschetz fibration. This follows from results of Gompf and Donaldson, and was also proved by Amoros-Bogomolov-Katzarkov-Pantev. We give another proof by…
