The goal of this paper is to construct invariant dynamical objects for a (not necessarily invertible) smooth self map of a compact manifold. We prove a result that takes advantage of differences in rates of expansion in the terms of a sheaf…
In this paper we introduce and study the basic properties of de Rham cohomology for a certain class of non-Hausdorff manifolds. After a careful discussion of non-Hausdorff differential forms, we provide a description of de Rham cohomology…
We consider several differential-topological invariants of compact 4-manifolds which directly arise from Riemannian variational problems. Using recent results of Bauer and Furuta, we compute these invariants in many cases that were…
`Loop-fusion cohomology' is defined on the continuous loop space of a manifold in terms of \vCech cochains satisfying two multiplicative conditions with respect to the fusion and figure-of-eight products on loops. The main result is that…
We give a partial account of some problems concerning cohomological invariants and metric properties of complex non-K\"ahler manifolds.
The paper concerns the cohomology of (multiplicative) BiHom-associative trialgebras. We first detail the correspondence between central extensions and second cohomology. This is followed by a general cohomology theory that unifies those of…
Gerstenhaber and Schack ([GS]) developed a deformation theory of presheaves of algebras on small categories. We translate their cohomological description to sheaf cohomology. More precisely, we describe the deformation space of (admissible)…
In this paper, we discuss the (co)homology theory of biquandles, derived biquandle cocycle invariants for oriented surface-links using broken surface diagrams and how to compute the biquandle cocycle invariants from marked graph diagrams.…
We introduce two new homology theories of orbifolds from some special type of triangulations adapted to an orbifold, called AW-homology and DW-homology. The main idea in the definitions of these two homology theories is that we use…
Given an action of a Lie group on a smooth manifold, we discuss the induced action on the Hochschild cohomology of smooth functions, and notions of invariance on this space. Depending on whether one considers invariance of cochains or…
Finite-order invariants of knots in arbitrary 3-manifolds (including non-orientable ones) are constructed and studied by methods of the topology of discriminant sets. Obstructions to the integrability of admissible weight systems to…
We analyse completely the BRST cohomology on local functionals for two dimensional sigma models coupled to abelian world sheet gauge fields, including effective bosonic D-string models described by Born-Infeld actions. In particular we…
A holomorphic Poisson structure induces a deformation of the complex structure as Hitchin's generalized geometry. Its associated cohomology naturally appears as the limit of a spectral sequence of a double complex. The first sheet of this…
We give parallel constructions of an invariant R(W,f), based on the classical Rogers dilogarithm, and of quantum hyperbolic invariants (QHI), based on the Faddeev-Kashaev quantum dilogarithms, for flat PSL(2,C)-bundles f over closed…
A basic result in the theory of holomorphic functions of several complex variables is the following special case of the work of H. Cartan on the sheaf cohomology on Stein domains ([10], or see [14] or [16] for more modern treatments).
We investigate N=(2,2) supersymmetric nonlinear sigma-models in the presence of a boundary. We restrict our attention to the case where the bulk geometry is described by chiral and twisted chiral superfields corresponding to a bihermitian…
This is a slightly corrected version of the article published by Functional Analysis and its Applications in 1993. We define the quadratic duality for algebras with nonhomogeneous relations; the duality between the algebra of differential…
We give a simple proof of a result on the $\partial\bar{\partial}$-lemma property under a blow-up transformation by Deligne--Griffiths--Morgan--Sullivan's criterion. Here, we use an explicit blow-up formula for Dolbeault cohomology given in…
We construct a new class of biharmonic maps, which are the critical points for the bienergy functional, by deforming conformally the codomain metric of harmonic Riemannian submersions such that they become nonharmonic but biharmonic.
Motivated by counting pseudo-holomorphic curves in symplectic Calabi-Yau $3$-folds, this article studies a chamber structure in the space of real Cauchy-Riemann operators on a Riemann surface, and constructs three chambered invariants…
