We introduce a cohomology, called extendable cohomology, for abstract complex singular varieties based on suitable differential forms. Beside a study of the general properties of such a cohomology, we show that, given a complex vector…
This paper is devoted to the study of the quantum cohomology of coadjoint varieties of simple algebraic groups across all Dynkin types. We determine the non-semisimple factors of the small quantum cohomology ring and relate them to…
We analyse the correlation function of the quantum curvature in complex quantum systems, using a random matrix model to provide an exemplar of a universal correlation function. We show that the correlation function diverges as the inverse…
We define the characteristic numbers of a holomorphic k-distribution of any dimension on $mathbb P^n$ and obtain relations between these numbers and the characteristic numbers of an invariant subvariety. As an application we bound the…
A brief exposition of the general theory of characteristic classes of quantum principal bundles is given. The theory of quantum characteristic classes incorporates ideas of classical Weil theory into the conceptual framework of…
The Chern number has been widely used to describe the topological properties of periodic structures in the momentum space. Here, we introduce a real-space spin Chern number for the optical near fields of finite-sized structures. This new…
We study the quantum cohomology of quasi-minuscule and quasi-cominuscule homogeneous spaces. The product of any two Schubert cells does not involve powers of the quantum parameter higher than 2. With the help of the quantum to classical…
Coherent sheaves on general complex manifolds do not necessarily have resolutions by finite complexes of vector bundles. However D. Toledo and Y.L.L. Tong showed that one can resolve coherent sheaves by objects analogous to chain complexes…
We show that Quillen's formalism for computing the Chern character of the index using superconnections extends to arbitrary operators with functional calculus. We thus remove the condition that the operators have, up to homotopy, a gap in…
In this paper, we investigate the noncompact prescribed Chern scalar curvature problem which reduces to solve a Kazdan-Warner type equation on noncompact non-K\"{a}hler manifolds. By introducing an analytic condition on noncompact…
We define exotic twisted $S^1$-equivariant cohomology for the loop space $LZ$ of a smooth manifold $Z$ via the invariant differential forms on $LZ$ with coefficients in the (typically non-flat) holonomy line bundle of a gerbe, with…
It has been argued by Witten and others that in the presence of a nontrivial B-field, D-brane charges in type IIB string theories are measured by twisted K-theory. In joint work with Bouwknegt, Carey and Murray it was proved that twisted…
We compute the K-theory of complex projective spaces. There are three major ingredients: the exact sequence of K-groups, the theory of Chern character and the Bott Periodicity Theorem.
Given a closed monotone symplectic manifold $M$, we define certain characteristic cohomology classes of the free loop space $L \text {Ham}(M, \omega)$ with values in $QH_* (M)$, and their $S^1$ equivariant version. These classes generalize…
We discuss a model of both classical and integer quantum Hall-effect which is based on a semi-classical Schroedinger-Chern-Simons-action, where the Ohm-equations result as equations of motion. The quantization of the classical…
Using Chern character, we construct a natural transformation from the local Hilbert functor to a functor of Artin rings defined from Hochschild homology, which allows us to reconstruct the semi-regularity map and the infinitesimal…
We study the reduced symplectic cohomology of disk subbundles in negative symplectic line bundles. We show that this cohomology theory "sees" the spectrum of a quantum action on quantum cohomology. Precisely, quantum cohomology decomposes…
In this paper, we study the structure of the quantum cohomology ring of a projective hypersurface with non-positive 1st Chern class. We prove a theorem which suggests that the mirror transformation of the quantum cohomology of a projective…
The purpose of this paper is to provide the reader with a collection of results which can be found in the mathematical literature and to apply them to hyperbolic spaces that may have a role in physical theories. Specifically we apply…
This paper expresses the Chern character for topological K-theory based on the formulation of the family of Fredholm operators, by using the points at which the Fredholm operator becomes singular (Fermi points). In particular, we explain…
