The cohomology of a tiling or a point pattern has originally been defined via the construction of the hull or the groupoid associated with the tiling or the pattern. Here we present a construction which is more direct and therefore easier…
In this expository article we give a categorical definition of the integral cohomology ring of a stack. We show that for quotient stacks the categorical cohomology may be identified with equivariant cohomology. Via this identification we…
We define a homology for ternary groups using both associativity and skew elements. We describe the odd-even construction which yields many examples of ternary groups. We define the ternary knot group, consider its homomorphisms into…
The purpose of this paper is to lay the foundations of a theory of invariants in \'etale cohomology for smooth Artin stacks. We compute the invariants in the case of the stack of elliptic curves, and we use the theory we developed to get…
In this article we review some recent developments in heterotic compactifications. In particular we review an ``inherently toric'' description of certain sheaves, called equivariant sheaves, that has recently been discussed in the physics…
We define and study an equivariant version of Farber's topological complexity for spaces with a given compact group action. This is a special case of the equivariant sectional category of an equivariant map, also defined in this paper. The…
Using a homological invariant together with an obstruction class in a certain Ext^2-group, we may classify objects in triangulated categories that have projective resolutions of length two. This invariant gives strong classification results…
We compute the rational homology of the moduli stack $\mathcal{M}$ of objects in the derived category of certain smooth complex projective varieties $X$ including toric varieties, flag varieties, curves, surfaces, and some 3- and 4-folds.…
We use representation theory to construct spaces of matrices of constant rank. These spaces are parametrized by the natural representation of the general linear group or the symplectic group. We present variants of this idea, with more…
We present a functorial computation of the equivariant intersection cohomology of a hypertoric variety, and endow it with a natural ring structure. When the hyperplane arrangement associated with the hypertoric variety is unimodular, we…
In this paper, we study the equivariant homotopy type of a connected sum of linear actions on complex projective planes defined by Hambleton and Tanase. These actions are constructed for cyclic groups of odd order. We construct cellular…
We formulate a connection between a topological and a geometric category. The former is the idempotent completion of the (horizontal) trace of the affine Hecke category, while the latter is the equivariant derived category of the…
We provide a general framework for wall-crossing of equivariant K-theoretic enumerative invariants of appropriate moduli stacks $\mathfrak{M}$, by lifting Joyce's homological universal wall-crossing arXiv:2111.04694 to K-theory and to…
This is the first of a series of papers on sheaf theory on smooth and topological stacks and its applications. The main result of the present paper is the characterization of the twisted (by a closed integral three-form) de Rham complex on…
The equivariant cohomology of a space with a group action is not only a ring but also an algebra over the cohomology ring of the classifying space of the acting group. We prove that toric manifolds (i.e. compact smooth toric varieties) are…
We show that every sheaf on the site of smooth manifolds with values in a stable (infinity,1)-category (like spectra or chain complexes) gives rise to a differential cohomology diagram and a homotopy formula, which are common features of…
We study symmetries in equivariant versions of Khovanov homology, which include (i) the construction of an involution $\widehat{\sigma}$ for the $U(2)$-equivariant theory, (ii) an integral lifting $\widehat{\nu}$ of the Shumakovitch…
We study equivariant coarse homology theories through an axiomatic framework. To this end we introduce the category of equivariant bornological coarse spaces and construct the universal equivariant coarse homology theory with values in the…
Replacing configurations of points by configurations of tubular neighbourhoods (or discs) in a manifold, we are able to define a natural scanning map that is equivariant under the action of the diffeomorphism group of the manifold. We also…
We prove a general form of the statement that the cohomology of a quotient stack can be computed by the Borel construction. It also applies to the lisse extensions of generalized cohomology theories like motivic cohomology and algebraic…
