Related papers: Small covers as pullbacks from the simplex

In a previous paper we have suggested a number of ideas to attack circuit size complexity with cohomology. As a simple example, we take circuits that can only compute the AND of two inputs, which essentially reduces to SET COVER. We show a…

We study the topology of small covers from their fundamental groups. We find a way to obtain explicit presentations of the fundamental group of a small cover. Then we use these presentations to study the relations between the fundamental…

A comprehensive account of the categorical properties of the category of small categories and asymmetric delta lenses is given in the recent works of Chollet et al. and Di Meglio. An important construction for proving many of these…

In this paper, based upon the basic theory for glued manifolds in M.W. Hirsch (1976) \cite[Chapter 8, \S 2 Gluing Manifolds Together]{h}, we give a method of constructing homeomorphisms between two small covers over simple convex polytopes.…

We consider circle patterns on surfaces with complex projective structures. We investigate two symplectic forms pulled back to the deformation space of circle patterns. The first one is Goldman's symplectic form on the space of complex…

We introduce a method to reduce the study of the topology of a simplicial complex to that of a simpler one. We give some applications of this method to complexes arising from graphs. As a consequence, we answer some questions raised in…

This article contains a new argument which proves vanishing of the first cohomology for negative vector bundles over a complex projective variety if the rank of the bundle is smaller than the dimension of the base. Similar argument is…

In this paper we will show that the pull-back of any regular differential form defined on the smooth locus of a good quotient of dimension three and four to any resolution yields a regular differential form.

We show how the tangent functor extends from ordinary smooth maps to "microformal morphisms" (also called "thick morphisms") of supermanifolds. Microformal morphisms generalize ordinary maps and correspond to formal canonical relations…

In this note we prove an effective characterization of when two finite-degree covers of a connected, orientable surface of negative Euler characteristic are isomorphic in terms of which curves have simple elevations, weakening the…

Calegari and Venkatesh did construct, modulo small torsion, a surjection from the degree 2 homology of the rank 2 projective general linear group over a ring of algebraic integers (of odd class number, and with enough embeddings) to the 2nd…

We introduce a variant of the usual Kahler forms on free and almost free divisors and their deformations, and show that they enjoy the same depth properties as Kahler forms on isolated complete intersection singularities. Using these forms,…

We give a complete description of the potential failure of the surjectivity of the Thom morphism from complex cobordism to integral cohomology for compact Lie groups via a detailed study of the Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence and the…

We show how a suitably twisted Spin-cobordism spectrum connects to the question of existence of metrics of positive scalar curvature on closed, smooth manifolds by building on fundamental work of Gromov, Lawson, Rosenberg, Stolz and others.…

In Part I of this paper we have seen that any singular compact area minimizer in a positive scalar curvature manifold admits a conformal deformation to some minimal factor geometry that shares many properties with the minimizer, like the…

Let X be a separated scheme of finite type over an algebraically closed field k and let m be a natural number. By an explicit geometric construction using torsors we construct a pairing between the first mod m Suslin homology and the first…

We introduce a property of compact complex manifolds under which the existence of balanced metric is stable by small deformations of the complex structure. This property, which is weaker than the $\partial\overline\partial$-Lemma, is…

We introduce the notion of categorical absorption of singularities: an operation that removes from the derived category of a singular variety a small admissible subcategory responsible for singularity and leaves a smooth and proper…

If X is a complex projective variety with klt singularities, then the mixed Hodge structures on the first two singular cohomology groups are pure. We describe the pieces of the Hodge decomposition in terms of reflexive differential forms.…

We analyse higher order background independence conditions arising from multiple commutators of background deformations in quantum closed string field theory. The conditions are shown to amount to a vanishing theorem for $\Delta_S$…
