In this paper we find sufficient conditions for the vanishing of the Morse-Novikov cohomology on Riemannian foliations. We work out a Bochner technique for twisted cohomological complexes, obtaining corresponding vanishing results. Also, we…
Various infinite-dimensional versions of Calogero-Moser operator are discussed in relation with the theory of symmetric functions and representation theory of basic classical Lie superlagebras. This is a version of invited talk given by the…
This paper is concerned with the primitive cohomology of a smooth projective hypersurface considered as a linear representation for its automorphism group. Using the Lefschetz-Riemann-Roch formula, the character of this representation is…
We describe the standard and Leray filtrations on the cohomology groups with compact supports of a quasi projective variety with coefficients in a constructible complex using flags of hyperplane sections on a partial compactification of a…
The monodromy action in the homology of level sets of Morse functions on stratified singular analytic varieties is studied. The local variation operators in both the standard and the intersection homology groups defined by the loops around…
The characteristic cycle of a complex of sheaves on a complex analytic space provides weak information about the complex; essentially, it yields the Euler characteristics of the hypercohomology of normal data to strata. We show how perverse…
This is a research monograph on symplectic cohomology (disguised as an advanced graduate textbook), which provides a construction of this version of Hamiltonian Floer cohomology for cotangent bundles of closed manifolds. The focus is on the…
We use the Floquet-Bloch transform to reduce variational formulations of surface scattering problems for the Helmholtz equation from periodic and locally perturbed periodic surfaces to equivalent variational problems formulated on bounded…
These are lecture notes from a series of lectures at the SMF summer school on "Geometric and Quantum Topology in Dimension 3", June 2014. The focus is on Heegaard Floer homology from the perspective of sutured Floer homology.
We explore the Fourier transform of the Heegaard Floer $d$-invariants, which is particularly well-behaved with respect to connected sum. As corollaries, we show that lens spaces are cancellable in the monoid of 3-manifolds up to integer…
Floer cohomology groups are usually defined over a field of formal functions (a Novikov field). Under certain assumptions, one can equip them with connections, which means operations of differentiation with respect to the Novikov variable.…
A new relation between homoclinic points and Lagrangian Floer homology is presented: In dimension two, we construct a Floer homology generated by primary homoclinic points. We compute two examples and prove an invariance theorem. Moreover,…
These are lecture notes for lectures at the Park City Math Institute, summer 2007. We cover aspects of the dimer model on planar, periodic bipartite graphs, including local statistics, limit shapes and fluctuations.
We define relative Floer theoretic invariants arising from 'quilted pseudo-holomorphic surfaces': Collections of pseudoholomorphic maps to various target spaces with 'seam conditions' in Lagrangian correspondences. As application we…
The purpose of this paper is to show that the third unramified cohomology with divisible coefficients of a smooth projective geometrically rational threefold over a finite field must vanish under $\Z_{\ell}$-exactness Hard Lefschetz…
Let X be a (connected and reduced) complex space. A q-collar of X is a bounded domain whose boundary is a union of a strongly q-pseudoconvex, a strongly q-pseudoncave and two flat (i.e. locally zero sets of pluriharmonic functions)…
We prove a vanishing theorem for the twisted de Rham cohomology of a compact manifold.
This set of lectures aims to give an overview of Donaldson's theory of linear systems on symplectic manifolds and the algebraic and geometric invariants to which they give rise. After collecting some of the relevant background, we discuss…
We construct open symplectic manifolds which are convex at infinity ("Liouville manifolds") and which are diffeomorphic, but not symplectically isomorphic, to cotangent bundles T^*S^{n+1}, for any n+1 \geq 3. These manifolds are constructed…
This is a note of the author's lectures at "Advanced courses in Foliation" in the research program "Foliation", which was held at the Centre de Recerca Mathematica in the May of 2010. In this note, we discuss about the relationship between…
