An operation of a coproduct of representations of a bialgebra is defined. The coproduct operation for representations of the Hopf algebra of functions on the quantum group $SU_{q}(2)$ is investigated. A notion of a stable representation…

Given a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$ endowed with a proper Hamiltonian action of a Lie group $G$, we consider the action induced by a Lie subgroup $H$ of $G$. We propose a construction for two compatible Witt-Artin decompositions of the…

We construct a nontrivial cyclic cocycle on the Weyl algebra of a symplectic vector space. Using this cyclic cocycle we construct an explicit, local, quasi-isomorphism from the complex of differential forms on a symplectic manifold to the…

We calculate the homology of the free loop space of (n-1)-connected closed manifolds of dimension at most 3n-2 (n > 1), with the Chas-Sullivan loop product and loop bracket. Over a field of characteristic zero, we obtain an expression for…

In \cite{baker-ozel}, by using Fredholm index we developed a version of Quillen's geometric cobordism theory for infinite dimensional Hilbert manifolds. This cobordism theory has a graded group structure under topological union operation…

Let $M$ be a smooth manifold and $G$ a compact connected Lie group acting on $M$ by isometries. In this paper, we study the equivariant cohomology of ${\bf X}=T^\ast M$, and relate it to the cohomology of the Marsden-Weinstein reduced space…

For the cotangent bundle of a smooth Riemannian manifold acted upon by the lift of a smooth and proper action by isometries of a Lie group, we characterize the symplectic normal space at any point. We show that this space splits as the…

We give explicit formulas for the coproduct and the antipode in the Connes-Moscovici Hopf algebra $\mathcal{H}_{\tmop{CM}}$. To do so, we first restrict ourselves to a sub-Hopf algebra $\mathcal{H}^1_{\tmop{CM}}$ containing the nontrivial…

Using the topological technique of diagrams of spaces, we calculate the homology of the union and the complement of finite arrangements of subspaces of the form $D + SP^{n-d}(X)$ in symmetric products $SP^n(X)$ where $D\in SP^d(X)$. As an…

I report on a calculation of the inclusive Higgs boson production cross section at hadron colliders at next-to-next-to-leading order in QCD. The result is computed as an expansion about the threshold region. By continuing the expansion to…

In this paper, we consider a class of Hessian quotient equations in the warped product manifold $\overline{M}=I\times_{\lambda}M$. Under some sufficient conditions, we obtain an existence result for the star-shaped compact hypersurface…

We compute the cohomology ring of a generalised type of configuration space of points in $\mathbb{R}^r$. This configuration space is indexed by a graph. In the case the graph is complete the result is known and it is due to Arnold and…
