In this paper, we study stable ergodicity of the action of groups of diffeomorphisms on smooth manifolds. Such actions are known to exist only on one-dimensional manifolds. The aim of this paper is to introduce a geometric method to…
Equivariant cohomology is a mathematical framework particularly well adapted to a kinematical understanding of topological gauge theories of the cohomological type. It also sheds some light on gauge fixing, a necessary field theory…
We present a description of the equivariant $K$-theory of a smooth projective spherical variety. This provides an integral $K$-theory version of Brion's calculation of equivariant Chow-cohomology of such varieties. We consider the…
Let G be a connected reductive complex algebraic group acting on a smooth complete complex algebraic variety X. We assume that X under the action of G is a regular embedding, a condition satisfied in particular by smooth toric varieties and…
We construct Morse homology groups associated with any regular function on a smooth complex algebraic variety, allowing singular and non-compact critical loci. These groups are generated by critical points of a certain large pertubation of…

We consider a simple and natural coboundary operator, on the Lie algebra valued differential forms on a manifold, which in the abelian case reduces to usual exterior derivative of such forms. Using the corresponding de Rham cohomology Lie…
We prove a formula for the structure constants of multiplication of equivariant Schubert classes in both equivariant cohomology and equivariant K-theory of Kac-Moody flag manifolds G/B. We introduce new operators whose coefficients compute…
Quasi-invariant measures for non-discrete groups of diffeomorphisms containing a Morse-Smale dynamics are studied. The assumption concerning the presence of a Morse-Smale dynamics allows us to extend to higher dimensions a number of…
We introduce a cohomological obstruction to solving the constant scalar curvature K\"ahler (cscK) equation twisted by a semipositive form, appearing in works of Fine and Song-Tian. Geometrically this gives an obstruction for a manifold to…
We establish an equivariant generalization of the Novikov inequalities which allow to estimate the topology of the set of critical points of a closed basic invariant form by means of twisted equivariant cohomology of the manifold. We apply…
We introduce a new method for proving twisted homological stability, and use it to prove such results for symmetric groups and general linear groups. In addition to sometimes slightly improving the stable range given by the traditional…
Let $M$ be a compact, connected symplectic manifold with a Hamiltonian action of a compact $n$-dimensional torus $G=T^n$. Suppose that $\sigma$ is an anti-symplectic involution compatible with the $G$-action. The real locus of $M$ is $X$,…
We show that the equivariant cohomology of any hyperpolar action of a compact and connected Lie group on a symmetric space of compact type is a Cohen-Macaulay ring. This generalizes some results previously obtained by the authors.
We discuss a Moser type argument to show when a deformation of a Lie group homomorphism and of a Lie subgroup is trivial. For compact groups we obtain stability results.
The main goal of this paper is to give a unified treatment to many known cuplength estimates. As the base case, we prove that for $C^0$-perturbations of a function which is Morse-Bott along a closed submanifold, the number of critical…
The equivariant holomorphic torsion of a compact locally symmetric manifold and an automorphism is expressed as a special value of a zeta function built out of geometric data (closed geodesics) of the manifold.

We define a C^1 distance between submanifolds of a riemannian manifold M and show that, if a compact submanifold N is not moved too much under the isometric action of a compact group G, there is a G-invariant submanifold C^1-close to N. The…
