We present some classification results for quasitoric manifolds (M) with (p_1(M)=-\sum a_i^2) for some (a_i\in H^2(M)) which admit an action of a compact connected Lie-group (G) such that (\dim M/G \leq 1). In contrast to Kuroki's work we…

Let $G$ be a compact, connected Lie group and $T \subset G$ a maximal torus. Let $(M,\omega)$ be a monotone closed symplectic manifold equipped with a Hamiltonian action of $G$. We construct a module action of the affine nil-Hecke algebra…

Consider a Hamiltonian action of a compact Lie group H on a compact symplectic manifold (M,w) and let G be a subgroup of the diffeomorphism group Diff(M). We develop techniques to decide when the maps on rational homotopy and rational…

Let a compact torus $T=T^{n-1}$ act on an orientable smooth compact manifold $X=X^{2n}$ effectively, with nonempty finite set of fixed points, and suppose that stabilizers of all points are connected. If $H^{odd}(X)=0$ and the weights of…

We show some of the conjectures of Pappas and Rapoport concerning the moduli stack of $\mathcal{G}$-torsors on a curve C, where $\mathcal{G}$ is a semisimple Bruhat-Tits group scheme on C. In particular we prove the analog of the…

The structure set $\ST^{TOP}(M)$ of an $n$-dimensional topological manifold $M$ for $n \geqslant 5$ has a homotopy invariant functorial abelian group structure, by the algebraic version of the Browder-Novikov-Sullivan-Wall surgery theory.…

We introduce an equivariant Pontrjagin-Thom construction which identifies equivariant cohomotopy classes with certain fixed point bordism classes. This provides a concrete geometric model for equivariant cohomotopy which works for any…

We compute the homotopy type of the moduli space of flat, unitary connections over aspherical surfaces, after stabilizing with respect to the rank of the underlying bundle. Over the orientable surface M^g, we show that this space has the…

Let G be a complex reductive algebraic group. We study complete intersections in a spherical homogeneous space G/H defined by a generic collection of sections from G-invariant linear systems. Whenever nonempty, all such complete…

In the context of orientable circuits and subcomplexes of these as representing certain singular spaces, we consider characteristic class formulas generalizing those classical results as seen for the Riemann-Hurwitz formula for regulating…

We develop a calculus based on graph enumeration for $S_n$-equivariant motivic invariants of graphically stratified moduli spaces. We apply our theory to the Deligne--Mumford moduli space $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{g, n}$ and to the space of…

We generalize the author's formula for Gromov-Witten invariants of symplectic toric manifolds (see math.AG/0006156) to those needed to compute the quantum product of more than two classes directly, i.e. involving the pull-back of the…

Let G be a compact Lie group. Let M be a smooth G-manifold and V --> M be an oriented G-equivariant vector bundle. One defines the spaces of equivariant forms with generalized coefficients on V and M. An equivariant Thom form $\theta$ on V…

Given a finite modular tensor category, we associate with each compact surface with boundary a cochain complex in such a way that the mapping class group of the surface acts projectively on its cohomology groups. In degree zero, this action…

The moduli space $M_g^{trop}$ of tropical curves of genus $g$ is a generalized cone complex that parametrizes metric vertex-weighted graphs of genus $g$. For each such graph $\Gamma$, the associated canonical linear system $\vert…

Given a Hamiltonian system $ (M,\omega, G,\mu) $ where $(M,\omega)$ is a symplectic manifold, $G$ is a compact connected Lie group acting on $(M,\omega)$ with moment map $ \mu:M \rightarrow\mathfrak{g}^{*}$, then one may construct the…

For $(M,[g])$ a conformal manifold of signature $(p,q)$ and dimension at least three, the conformal holonomy group $\mathrm{Hol}(M,[g]) \subset O(p+1,q+1)$ is an invariant induced by the canonical Cartan geometry of $(M,[g])$. We give a…

Suppose that a compact $r$-dimensional torus $T^r$ acts in a holomorphic and Hamiltonian manner on polarized complex $d$-dimensional projective manifold $M$, with nowhere vanishing moment map $\Phi$. Assuming that $\Phi$ is transverse to…

We extend work of Davis and Januszkiewicz by considering {\it omnioriented} toric manifolds, whose canonical codimension-2 submanifolds are independently oriented. We show that each omniorientation induces a canonical stably complex…
