Suppose an amenable group $G$ is acting freely on a simply connected simplicial complex $\tilde X$ with compact quotient $X$. Fix $n \geq 1$, assume $H_n(\tilde X, \mathbb{Z})=0$ and let $(H_i)$ be a Farber chain in $G$. We prove that the…
Exploiting a notion of Kaehler structure on a stratified space introduced elsewhere we show that, in the Kaehler case, reduction after quantization coincides with quantization after reduction: Key tools developed for that purpose are…
If a finite group acts holomorphically on a pair (X,L), where X is a complex projective manifold and L a line bundle on it, for every k the space of holomorphic global section of the k-th power of L splits equivariantly according to the…
Suppose a compact Lie group acts on a polarized complex projective manifold (M,L). Under favorable circumstances, the Hilbert-Mumford quotient for the action of the complexified group may be described as a symplectic quotient (or…
The Gromov-Lawson-Rosenberg conjecture for a group G states that a compact spin manifold with fundamental group G admits a metric of positive scalar curvature if and only if a certain topological obstruction vanishes. It is known to be true…
Let E be a circle-equivariant complex-orientable cohomology theory. We show that the fixed-point formula applied to the free loopspace of a manifold X can be understood as a Riemann-Roch formula for the quotient of the formal group of E by…
If a compact quantum group acts faithfully and smoothly (in the sense of Goswami 2009) on a smooth, compact, oriented, connected Riemannian manifold such that the action induces a natural bimodule morphism on the module of sections of the…
The density property for a Stein manifold X implies that the group of holomorphic diffeomorphisms of X is infinite-dimensional and, in a certain well-defined sense, as large as possible. We prove that if G is a complex semisimple Lie group…
Let $G$ be a locally compact, Hausdorff, second countable groupoid and $A$ be a separable, $C_0(G^{(0)})$-nuclear, $G$-$C^*$-algebra. We prove the existence of quasi-invariant, completely positive and contractive lifts for equivariant,…
Let G/Q be an homogeneous variety embedded in a projective space P thanks to an ample line bundle L. Take a projective space containing P and form the cone X over G/Q, we call this a cone over an homogeneous variety. Let $\alpha$ a class of…
Consider a smooth quasiprojective variety X equipped with a C*-action, and a regular function f: X -> C which is C*-equivariant with respect to a positive weight action on the base. We prove the purity of the mixed Hodge structure and the…
We prove an infinite-dimensional version of "quantization commutes with reduction" in the framework of geometric quantization of Chern-Simons gauge theory, focusing on the genus one case. The proof is complex-analytic and relies on the…
Under some suitable assumptions Riemannian manifolds $(M, g, H)$ that admit a connection $\hat\nabla$ with torsion a 3-form $H$, which is both closed $d H=0$ and $\hat\nabla$-covariantly constant, are locally isometric to a product $N\times…
Given a group-invariant quasi-free state on the algebra of canonical commutation relations (CCR), we show how group averaging techniques can be used to obtain a symmetry reduced CCR algebra and reduced quasi-free state. When the group is…
To any finite group G in SL_2(C), and each `t' in the center of the group algebra of G, we associate a category, Coh_t. It is defined as a suitable quotient of the category of graded modules over (a graded version of) the deformed…
Gauged linear sigma models with (0,2) supersymmetry allow a larger choice of couplings than models with (2,2) supersymmetry. We use this freedom to find a fully linear construction of torsional heterotic compactifications, including models…
Let $X$ be the unit circle bundle of a positive line bundle on a Hodge manifold. We study the local scaling asymptotics of the smoothed spectral projectors associated to a first order elliptic T\"{o}plitz operator $T$ on $X$, possibly in…
Let $\mathcal G$ be a stratified Lie group and $\{\X_j\}_{1 \leq j \leq n}$ a basis for the left-invariant vector fields of degree one on $\mathcal G$. Let $\Delta = \sum_{j = 1}^n \X_j^2 $ be the sub-Laplacian on $\mathcal G$. The…
Let $G$ be the fundamental group of a three-manifold. By piecing together many known facts about three manifold groups, we establish two properties of the group ring $\mathbb{C}G$. We show that if $G$ has rational cohomological dimension…
