Given a henselian pair $(R, I)$ of commutative rings, we show that the relative $K$-theory and relative topological cyclic homology with finite coefficients are identified via the cyclotomic trace $K \to \mathrm{TC}$. This yields a…

We reveal a correspondence between the homological torsion of the Bianchi groups and new geometric invariants, which are effectively computable thanks to their action on hyperbolic space. We use it to explicitly compute their integral group…

We prove the instability of some families of Riemannian manifolds with non-trivial real Killing spinors. These include the invariant Einstein metrics on the Aloff-Wallach spaces $N_{k, l}={\rm SU}(3)/i_{k, l}(S^{1})$ (which are all nearly…

We introduce a new notion of regularity for rings and exact categories and we show important results in algebraic K-theory. In particular we prove a strong vanishing theorem for Nil groups and give an explicit class of groups, much bigger…

Kawakubo and Uchida showed that, if a closed oriented $4k$-dimensional manifold $M$ admits a semi-free circle action such that the dimension of the fixed point set is less than $2k$, then the signature of $M$ vanishes. In this note, by…

An important, if relatively less well known aspect of the singularity theorems in Lorentzian Geometry is to understand how their conclusions fare upon weakening or suppression of one or more of their hypotheses. Then, theorems with modified…

By using certain idea developed in minimal submanifold theory we study rigidity problem for self-shrinkers in the present paper. We prove rigidity results for squared norm of the second fundamental form of self-shrinkers, either under…

Compact K\"ahler manifolds classically satisfy the Hard Lefschetz Theorem, which gives strong control on the underlying topology of the manifold. One expects a similar theorem to be true for K\"ahler Lie Algebroids, and we show for a…

We establish a relationship between a certain notion of covering complexity of a Riemannian spin manifold and positive lower bounds on its scalar curvature. This makes use of a pairing between quantitative operator $K$-theory and Lipschitz…

We prove that the homotopy algebraic K-theory of tame quasi-DM stacks satisfies cdh-descent. We apply this descent result to prove that if X is a Noetherian tame quasi-DM stack and i < -dim(X), then K_i(X)[1/n] = 0 (resp. K_i(X, Z/n) = 0)…

We prove a rigidity theorem in Poisson geometry around compact Poisson submanifolds, using the Nash-Moser fast convergence method. In the case of one-point submanifolds (fixed points), this immediately implies a stronger version of Conn's…

Using $L^2$-methods, we prove a vanishing theorem for tame harmonic bundles over quasi-compact K\"ahler manifolds in a very general setting. As a special case, we give a completely new proof of the Kodaira type vanishing theorems for Higgs…

We prove versions of the Suslin and Gabber rigidity theorems in the setting of equivariant pseudo pretheories of smooth schemes over a field with an action of a finite group. Examples include equivariant algebraic $K$-theory, presheaves…

This paper contains some vanishing theorems for $L^2$ harmonic forms on complete Riemannian manifolds with a weighted Poincar\'e inequality and a certain lower bound of the curvature. The results are in the spirit of Li-Wang and Lam, but…

In this paper, we first introduce the concept of $\xi $-submanifold which is a natural generalization of self-shrinkers for the mean curvature flow and also an extension of $\lambda$-hypersurfaces to the higher codimension. Then, as the…

We give an abstract version of the hard Lefschetz theorem, the Lefschetz decomposition and the Hodge-Riemann theorem for compact Kaehler manifolds.

We extend the Quillen Theorem Bn for homotopy fibers of Dwyer, et al. to similar results for homotopy pullbacks and note that these results imply similar results for zigzags in the categories of relative categories and k-relative…

We demonstrate that type II string theory compactified on a singular Calabi-Yau manifold is related to $c=1$ string theory compactified at the self-dual radius. We establish this result in two ways. First we show that complex structure…

In this article, we develop an $L^{2}$-Hodge theory on complete $2n$-dimensional almost K\"{a}hler manifolds $(X,\omega)$. In the first part, we establish several identities for various Laplacians, generalized Hodge and Serre dualities, a…

In this paper, we study the family index of a family of spin manifolds. In particular, we discuss to which extend the real index (of the Dirac operator of the real spinor bundle if the fiber dimension is divisible by 8) which can be defined…
