Let $T$ be a torus acting on $\CC^n$ in such a way that, for all $1\leq k\leq n$, the induced action on the grassmannian $G(k,n)$ has only isolated fixed points. This paper proposes a natural, elementary, explicit description of the…

We formulate an equivariant conservation of number, which proves that a generalized Euler number of a complex equivariant vector bundle can be computed as a sum of local indices of an arbitrary section. This involves an expansion of the…

We prove a quantum version of the localization formula of Witten that relates invariants of a git quotient with the equivariant invariants of the action. Using the formula we prove a quantum version of an abelianization formula of S. Martin…

We use the theory of cubic structures to give a fixed point Riemann-Roch formula for the equivariant Euler characteristics of coherent sheaves on projective flat schemes over Z with a tame action of a finite abelian group. This formula…

We consider abstract operator equations $Fu=y$, where $F$ is a compact linear operator between Hilbert spaces $U$ and $V$, which are function spaces on \emph{closed, finite dimensional Riemannian manifolds}, respectively. This setting is of…

Let $M=G/K$ be a generalized flag manifold, that is the adjoint orbit of a compact semisimple Lie group $G$. We use the variational approach to find invariant Einstein metrics for all flag manifolds with two isotropy summands. We also…

Let G be a Lie supergroup and H a closed subsupergroup. We study the unimodularity of the homogeneous supermanifold G/H, i.e. the existence of G-invariant sections of its Berezinian line bundle. To that end, we express this line bundle as a…

Homology Hirzebruch characteristic classes for singular varieties have been recently defined by Brasselet-Schuermann-Yokura as an attempt to unify previously known characteristic class theories for singular spaces (e.g., MacPherson-Chern…

The locality conditions for the vanishing of local anomalies in field theory are shown to admit a geometrical interpretation in terms of local equivariant cohomology, thus providing a method to deal with the problem of locality in the…

We prove a version of Quillen's stratification theorem in equivariant homotopy theory for a finite group $G$, generalizing the classical theorem in two directions. Firstly, we work with arbitrary commutative equivariant ring spectra as…

This work is divide in two cases. In the first case, we consider a spin manifold $M$ as the set of fixed points of an $S^{1}$-action on a spin manifold $X$, and in the second case we consider the spin manifold $M$ as the set of fixed points…

We compute the local Gromov-Witten invariants of the "closed vertex", that is, a configuration of three rational curves meeting in a single triple point in a Calabi-Yau threefold. The method is to express the local invariants of the vertex…

The fixed point index of topological fixed point theory is a well studied integer-valued algebraic invariant of a mapping which can be characterized by a small set of axioms. The coincidence index is an extension of the concept to…

Moduli spaces of semi-stable real and quaternionic vector bundles of a fixed topological type admit a presentation as Lagrangian quotients, and can be embedded into the symplectic quotient corresponding to the moduli variety of semi-stable…

We develop methods for constructing and computing conformal invariants of submanifolds, with a particular emphasis on conformal submanifold scalars and conformally invariant integrals of natural submanifold scalars. These methods include a…

The BKMP conjecture (2006-2008), proposed a new method to compute closed and open Gromov-Witten invariants for every toric Calabi-Yau 3-folds, through a topological recursion based on mirror symmetry. So far, this conjecture had been…

We present a simple, accurate method for computing singular or nearly singular integrals on a smooth, closed surface, such as layer potentials for harmonic functions evaluated at points on or near the surface. The integral is computed with…

In the paper, we introduce the terminology equivariant pointwise clutching map. By using this, we give details on how to glue an equivariant vector bundle over a finite set so as to obtain a new Lie group representation such that the…

We describe new arithmetic invariants for pairs of torus orbits on groups isogenous to an inner form of $\mathbf{PGL}_n$ over a number field. These invariants are constructed by studying the double quotient of a linear algebraic group by a…
