This note is mostly an expository survey, centered on the topology of complements of hyperplane arrangements, their Milnor fibrations, and their boundary structures. An important tool in this study is provided by the degree 1 resonance and…
Each complex hyperplane arrangement gives rise to a Milnor fibration of its complement. Although the Betti numbers of the Milnor fiber $F$ can be expressed in terms of the jump loci for rank 1 local systems on the complement, explicit…
We prove that the mod $2$ Betti numbers of double coverings of a complex hyperplane arrangement complement are combinatorially determined. The proof is based on a relation between the mod $2$ Aomoto complex and the transfer long exact…
Each complex hyperplane arrangement $\mathcal{A}$ gives rise to a Milnor fibration of its complement. Building on work of Zuber, we give a combinatorial sufficient condition for the Milnor fiber $F(\mathcal{A})$ to be non-$1$-formal,…
We study the Jordan normal forms of the local and global monodromies over complete intersection subvarieties of $C^n$ by using the theory of motivic Milnor fibers. The results will be explicitly described by the mixed volumes of the faces…
This paper deals with cyclic covers of a large family of rational normal surfaces that can also be described as quotients of a product, where the factors are cyclic covers of algebraic curves. We use a generalization of Esnault-Viehweg…
We discuss combinatorial invariance of the betti numbers of the Milnor fiber for arrangements of lines with points of multiplicity at most three and describe a link between this problem and enumeration of solutions of the Catalan equation…
Let $\A$ be an arrangement of affine lines in $\C^2,$ with complement $\M(\A).$ The (co)homo-logy of $\M(\A)$ with twisted coefficients is strictly related to the cohomology of the Milnor fibre associated to the conified arrangement,…
We associate with an infinite cyclic cover of a punctured neighborhood of a simple normal crossing divisor on a complex quasi-projective manifold (assuming certain finiteness conditions are satisfied) an element in the Grothendieck ring…
In this paper, we study the first homology group of finite cyclic covering of complex line arrangement complement. We show that this first integral homology group is torsion-free under certain condition similar to the one used by…
We discuss and prove a number of cohomological results for Milnor fibers, real links, and complex links of local complete intersections with singularities of arbitrary dimension.
We investigate the cohomology of the Milnor fibre of a reflection arrangement as a module for the group $\Gamma$ generated by the reflections, together with the cyclic monodromy. Although we succeed completely only for unitary reflection…
There are several topological spaces associated to a complex hyperplane arrangement: the complement and its boundary manifold, as well as the Milnor fiber and its own boundary. All these spaces are related in various ways, primarily by a…
We give an explicit expression for the contact loci of hyperplane arrangements and show that their cohomology rings are combinatorial invariants. We also give an expression for the restricted contact loci in terms of Milnor fibers of…
In this article we further the study of non-commutative motives. We prove that bivariant cyclic cohomology (and its variants) becomes representable in the category of non-commutative motives. Furthermore, Connes' bilinear pairings…
We study a simplicial mixed polynomial of cyclic type and its associated weighted homogeneous polynomial. In the present paper, we show that their links are diffeomorphic and their Milnor fibrations are isomorphic.
Papadima and Suciu proved an inequality between the ranks of the cohomology groups of the Aomoto complex with finite field coefficients and the twisted cohomology groups, and conjectured that they are actually equal for certain cases…
By using our previous results on L\^e modules and an upper-bound on the betti numbers which we proved with L\^e, we investigate the cohomology of Milnor fibers and the internal local systems given by the vanishing cycles of hypersurfaces…
Cyclic coverings produce many examples of topologically contractible smooth affine complex varieties. In this paper, we study the motivic cohomology groups of cyclic coverings over algebraically closed fields of characteristic $0$. In…
We use covering space theory and the fundamental group of complements of complexified-real line arrangements to explore the associated Milnor fiber. This work yields a combinatorially determined upper bound on the rank of the first homology…
