We compute the Chow-Witt rings of the classifying spaces for the symplectic and special linear groups. In the structural description we give, contributions from real and complex realization are clearly visible. In particular, the…
We define the Chow ring of the classifying space of a linear algebraic group. In all the examples where we can compute it, such as the symmetric groups and the orthogonal groups, it is isomorphic to a natural quotient of the complex…
Motivated by the computation of the BPS-invariants on a local Calabi-Yau threefold suggested by S. Katz, we compute the Chow ring and the cohomology ring of the moduli space of stable sheaves of Hilbert polynomial $4m+1$ on the projective…
We compute the total Chow-Witt rings of the classifying space B\mu_n of the roots of unity, as well as the products BG_m x B\mu_n and B\mu_m x B\mu_n for all m,n greater than or equal to 1 based on the strategy by di Lorenzo and Mantovani…
We compute the Chow-Witt rings of split quadrics over a field of characteristic not two. We even determine the full bigraded I-cohomology and Milnor-Witt cohomology rings, including twists by line bundles. The results on I-cohomology…
We compute the Chow ring of the classifying space $BSO(2n,\C)$ in the sense of Totaro using the fibration $Gl(2n)/SO(2n) \to BSO(2n) \to BGl(2n)$ and a computation of the Chow ring of $Gl(2n)/SO(2n)$ in a previous paper. We find this Chow…
For an algebraically closed field K with ch K \not = 2, we determine the Chow ring of the moduli space of holomorphic bundles on a projective plane with the structure group SO(n,K) and half the first Pontryagin index being equal to 1, each…
We describe the equivariant Chow ring of the wonderful compactification $X$ of a symmetric space of minimal rank, via restriction to the associated toric variety $Y$. Also, we show that the restrictions to $Y$ of the tangent bundle $T_X$…
We introduce equivariant Chow-Witt groups in order to define Chow-Witt groups of quotient stacks. We compute the Chow-Witt ring of the moduli stack of stable (resp. smooth) elliptic curves, providing a geometric interpretation of the new…
We construct Euler and Stiefel-Whitney classes of vector bundles with quadratic form by analyzing the intersection theory of the associated quadric bundles. We also compute the Chow rings of quadric and isotropic flag bundles. Along the…
The quantization of vector bundles is defined. Examples are constructed for the well controlled case of equivariant vector bundles over compact coadjoint orbits. (Coadjoint orbits are symplectic spaces with a transitive, semisimple symmetry…
We compute the Chow ring of an arbitrary heavy/light Hassett space $\bar{M}_{0, w}$. These spaces are moduli spaces of weighted pointed stable rational curves, where the associated weight vector $w$ consists of only heavy and light weights.…
We apply the previous calculations of Chow-Witt rings of Grassmannians to develop an oriented analogue of the classical Schubert calculus. As a result, we get complete diagrammatic descriptions of the ring structure in Chow-Witt rings and…
We describe the Chow ring with rational coefficients of the moduli space of stable maps with marked points Mbar_{0,m}(n,d) as the subring of invariants of a ring B, relative to the action of the group of symmetries of d elements. B is…
Using the Bockstein spectral sequence developed previously by the authors, we compute the ring ER(n)^*(BO(q)) explicitly. We then use this calculation to show that the ring spectrum MO[2^{n+1}] is ER(n)-orientable (but not…
We compute Chow groups of moduli spaces of rank 2 vector bundles on curves with determinant of odd degree in terms of generators and relations.
We compute the rational Chow ring of the moduli stack of planar nodal curves of fixed degree and express it in terms of tautological classes. Along the way, we extend Vial's results on Chow groups of Brauer-Severi varieties to…
We observe that, in the eta-periodic motivic stable homotopy category, odd rank vector bundles behave to some extent as if they had a nowhere vanishing section. We discuss some consequences concerning SLc-orientations of motivic ring…
We complement our previous computation of the Chow-Witt rings of classifying spaces of special linear groups by an analogous computation for the general linear groups. This case involves discussion of non-trivial dualities. The computation…
Let $M$ be a complete nonsingular fine moduli space of modules over an algebra $S$. A set of conditions is given for the Chow ring of $M$ to be generated by the Chern classes of certain universal bundles occurring in a projective resolution…
