We introduce a notion of `proChow group' of varieties, agreeing with the notion of Chow group for complete varieties and covariantly functorial with respect to arbitrary morphisms. We construct a natural transformation from the functor of…
We define the equivariant Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson class of a possibly singular algebraic variety with a group action over the complex number field (or a field of characteristic 0). In fact, we construct a natural transformation from the…
Natural linear and coalgebra transformations of tensor algebras are studied. The representations of certain combinatorial groups are given. These representations are connected to natural transformations of tensor algebras and to the groups…
A geometric construction of Sullivan's Stiefel-Whitney homology classes of a real analytic variety $X$ is given by means of the conormal cycle of an embedding of $X$ in a smooth variety. We prove that the Stiefel-Whitney classes define…
In this paper we study some new theories of characteristic homology classes for singular complex algebraic varieties. First we introduce a natural transformation T_{y}: K_{0}(var/X) -> H_{*}(X,Q)[y] commuting with proper pushdown, which…
In this paper we study some new theories of characteristic homology classes for singular complex algebraic (or compactifiable analytic) spaces. We introduce a motivic Chern class transformation mC_{*}: K_{0}(var/X)-> G_{0}(X)[y], which…
A topologically-invariant and additive homology class is mostly not a natural transformation as it is. In this paper we discuss turning such a homology class into a natural transformation; i.e., a "categorification" of it. In a general…
In this note we give a simple, model-independent construction of Chern classes as natural transformations from differential complex K-theory to differential integral cohomology. We verify the expected behaviour of these Chern classes with…
This paper investigates a variety of coarse homology theories and natural transformations between them. We in particular study the commutativity of a square relating analytical and topological transgressions with algebraic and homotopy…
A natural map from Lawson homology to Deligne cohomology groups for smooth complex projective varieties is constructed by using the Harvey-Lawson spark complexes. We also compare this to Abel-Jacobi type constructions by others.
We study deformations of complex projective varieties that are homotopically or homologically trivial. We formulate several conjectures and give some examples and partial answers.
Via the construction of a functor from $\mathsf{C}_{u}(H)$ to an auxiliary category we associate, with any triplet $(G,F,\rho)$, two natural transformations, $\mathfrak{m}_{\star}$ morphism of…
Various complexes of differential operators are constructed on complex projective space via the Penrose transform, which also computes their cohomology.
We propose a version of the Hodge conjecture in Bott-Chern cohomology and using results from characterizing real holomorphic chains by real rectifiable currents to provide a proof for this question. We define a Bott-Chern differential…
For all classical groups (and for their analogs in infinite dimension or over general base fields or rings) we construct certain contractions, called "homotopes". The construction is geometric, using as ingredient involutions of associative…

Linear fractional transformations on the extended complex plane are classified up to topological conjugacy. Recall that two transformations f and g are called topologically conjugate if there exists a homeomorphism h such that hg=fh.
The Lawson homology of a smooth projective variety with a $\C^*$-action is given in terms of that of the fixed point set of this action. We also consider such a decomposition for the Lawson homology of certain singular projective varieties…
A particular case of Bergeron-Venkatesh's conjecture predicts that torsion classes in the cohomology of Shimura varieties are rather rare. According to this and for Kottwitz-Harris-Taylor type of Shimura varieties, we first associate to…
Let X be a smooth projective variety of dimension n on which rational and homological equivalence coincide for algebraic p-cycles in the range 0\leq p\leq s. We show that the homologically trivial sector of rational Lawson homology…
