A new class of compact K\"ahler manifolds, called special, is defined, which are the ones having no surjective meromorphic map to an orbifold of general type. The special manifolds are in many respect higher-dimensional generalisations of…

Over the complex numbers, the complement of a collection of hyperplanes is a widely-studied object; the cohomology ring, in particular, is known to have a structure depending only on the combinatorial properties of the intersection of…

If the circle acts in a Hamiltonian way on a compact symplectic manifold of dimension $2n$, then there are at least $n+1$ fixed points. The case that there are exactly $n+1$ isolated fixed points has its importance due to various reasons.…

Let X be a Hermitian locally symmetric space. We prove that every Chern class of X has a canonical lift to the cohomology of the Baily- Borel-Satake compactification X* of X and that the resulting Chern numbers satisfy the Hirzebruch…

For a compact smooth manifold with corners (or finite CW-complex) $X$, we can prescribe a finite set of spin or spin$^h$ manifolds (possibly with boundary) mapping into it so that every real vector bundle over $X$ is determined, up to…

We study the twisted K-theory and K-homology of some infinite dimensional spaces, like SU(\infty), in the bivariant setting. Using a general procedure due to Cuntz we construct a bivariant K-theory on the category of separable…

A cocycle $\Omega: P \times G \to H$ taking values in a Lie group $H$ for a free right action of $G$ on $P$ defines a principal bundle $Q$ with the structure group $H$ over $P/G.$ The Chern character of a vector bundle associated to $Q$…

The point of this paper is to prove the conjecture that virtual 2-vector bundles are classified by K(ku), the algebraic K-theory of topological K-theory. Hence, by the work of Ausoni and the fourth author, virtual 2-vector bundles give us a…

A result of A. King and C. Walter asserts that the Chow ring of a fine quiver moduli space is generated by the Chern classes of universal bundles if the quiver is acyclic. We will show that defining relations between these Chern classes…

Combinatorial ideas are developed in this article to study Chern numbers on ample and numerically effective vector bundles. An effective lower bound for Chern numbers of ample vector bundles is established, which makes some progress towards…

In this article we construct explicit cocycles in the Alexander-Spanier cohomological complex, representing the Chern character of an element in K-theory.

In this paper, we provide a complete classification of the positive minimal monads whose cohomology is a stable rank 2 bundle on $\mathbb{P}^3$ with Chern classes $c_1=-1, c_2=10$ and we prove the existence of a new irreducible component of…

Strongly $\mathbb{Z}$-graded algebras or principal circle bundles and associated line bundles or invertible bimodules over a class of generalized Weyl algebras $\mathcal{B}(p;q, 0)$ (over a ring of polynomials in one variable) are…

For a local complete intersection subvariety $X=V({\mathcal I})$ in ${\mathbb P}^n$ over a field of characteristic zero, we show that, in cohomological degrees smaller than the codimension of the singular locus of $X$, the cohomology of…

A k-dimensional hypertree X is a k-dimensional complex on n vertices with a full (k-1)-dimensional skeleton and \binom{n-1}{k} facets such that H_k(X;Q)=0. Here we introduce the following family of simplicial complexes. Let n,k be integers…

We investigate the super-de Rham complex of five-dimensional superforms with $N=1$ supersymmetry. By introducing a free supercommutative algebra of auxiliary variables, we show that this complex is equivalent to the Chevalley-Eilenberg…

We exhaustively classify topological equivariant complex vector bundles over two-torus under a compact Lie group (not necessarily effective) action. It is shown that inequivariant Chern classes and isotropy representations at (at most) six…

Any oriented 4-dimensional real vector bundle is naturally a line bundle over a bundle of quaternion algebras. In this paper we give an account of modules over bundles of quaternion algebras, discussing Morita equivalence, characteristic…

We partially extend to hyperk\"ahler fourfolds of Kummer type the results that we have proved regarding stable rigid vector bundles on hyperk\"ahler (HK) varieties of type $K3^{[n]}$. Let $(M,h)$ be a general polarized HK fourfold of Kummer…

A survey of some results and open questions related to the following algebraic invariants of compact complex manifolds, that can be obtained from differential forms: cohomology groups, Chern classes, rational homotopy groups, and higher…
