Let $X$ be a closed Riemann surface. When $X$ is embedded into a projective space, the first rational cohomology group can be concretely obtained from the monodromy in the family of its smooth hyperplane sections by C. Schnell's tube…

We show that a flat principal bundle with compact connected structure group and its adjoint bundles of Lie groups have the same cohomology as the trivial bundle, which is done by proving they satisfy the condition for the Leray-Hirsch…

Let $\A$ be an arrangement of affine lines in $\C^2,$ with complement $\M(\A).$ The (co)homo-logy of $\M(\A)$ with twisted coefficients is strictly related to the cohomology of the Milnor fibre associated to the conified arrangement,…

\'Etale Nori finite vector bundles are those bundles defined by representations of a finite \'etale group scheme in the usual way. In this note we show that in many cases the dimensions of the Hodge cohomology groups of such a vector bundle…

In this paper we study a new topological invariant $\Cat(X,\xi)$, where $X$ is a finite polyhedron and $\xi\in H^1(X;\R)$ is a real cohomology class. $\Cat(X,\xi)$ is defined using open covers of $X$ with certain geometric properties; it is…

Given a projective morphism of compact, complex, algebraic varieties and a relatively ample line bundle on the domain we prove that a suitable choice, dictated by the line bundle, of the decomposition isomorphism of the Decomposition…

We obtain sufficient conditions for the vanishing of higher homotopy groups of the complements to hypersurfaces in ${\mathbb C}^n$ in terms of the behavior at infinity and relate the monodromy of non isolated singularities to the position…

These are notes from lectures given at the Clay Institute Summer School on "Floer homology, gauge theory and low-dimensional topology" (Budapest, 2004). The first part describes as background some of the geometry of symplectic fibre bundles…

If a smooth projective threefold $X$ satisfies a certain Property A (see below for definition), then any automorphism of $X$ has zero entropy. Let $Y$ be a smooth projective threefold satisfying Property A. Let $\pi :X\rightarrow Y$ be a…

We study constraints on the Chern classes of a vector bundle on a singular variety. We use this constraint to study a variety which carries a Hodge cycle that are not a linear combination of Chern classes of vector bundles on it.

We prove that any region $\Gamma$ in a homogeneous $n$-dimensional and locally compact separable metric space $X$, where $n\geq 2$, cannot be irreducibly separated by a closed $(n-1)$-dimensional subset $C$ with the following property: $C$…

We prove the existence of an unbounded connected branch of nontrivial homoclinic trajectories of a family of discrete nonautonomous asymptotically hyperbolic systems parametrized by a circle under assumptions involving the topological…

The purpose of this article is to show that the bivariant algebraic $A$-cobordism groups considered previously by the author are independent of the chosen base ring $A$. This result is proven by analyzing the bivariant ideal generated by…

We show that a variety of monodromy phenomena arising in geometric topology and algebraic geometry are most conveniently described in terms of quandle homomorphisms from a knot quandle associated to the base to a quandle associated to a…

In this article we study cohomological properties of the category of polynomial outer functors on free groups, which are the functors from the category of finitely generated free groups to the category of rational vector spaces which send…

By recent work on some conjectures of Pillay, each definably compact group in a saturated o-minimal structure is an expansion of a compact Lie group by a torsion free normal divisible subgroup, called its infinitesimal subgroup. We show…

We show how some of our recent results clarify the relationship between the L\^e numbers and the cohomology of the Milnor fiber of a non-isolated hypersurface singularity. The L\^e numbers are actually the ranks of the free Abelian groups…

We describe the singular cohomology ring, the K-ring of complex vector bundles, the Chow ring, and the Grothendieck ring of coherent sheaves of the total space of the fibre bundle with base space an irreducible nonsingular complete…

We develop a combinatorial theory of vector bundles with connection on locally ordered simplicial complexes. This is a first step towards a discrete exterior calculus for bundle-valued forms. The basic building block is the discrete…

mu-constant families of holomorphic function germs with isolated singularities are considered from a global perspective. First, a monodromy group from all families which contain a fixed singularity is studied. It consists of automorphisms…
