We give a new reconstruction method of big quantum $K$-ring based on the $q$-difference module structure in quantum $K$-theory. The $q$-difference structure yields commuting linear operators $A_{i,\rm com}$ on the $K$-group as many as the…

Cohomological genus-0 Gromov-Witten invariants of a given target space can be encoded by the "descendant potential," a generating function defined on the space of power series in one variable with coefficients in the cohomology space of the…

We describe a method for counting maps of curves of given genus (and variable moduli) to $\Bbb P^2$, essentially by splitting the $\Bbb P^2$ in two; then specialising to the case of genus 0 we show that the method of quantum cohomology may…

We generalize the First Reconstruction Theorem of Kontsevich and Manin in two respects. First, we allow the target space to be a Deligne-Mumford stack. Second, under some convergence assumptions, we show it suffices to check the hypothesis…

Commutative K-theory, a cohomology theory built from spaces of commuting matrices, has been explored in recent work of Adem, G\'{o}mez, Gritschacher, Lind, and Tillman. In this article, we use unstable methods to construct explicit…

We give a construction of the moduli space of stable maps to the classifying stack B\mu_r of a cyclic group by a sequence of r-th root constructions on M_{0, n}. We prove a closed formula for the total Chern class of \mu_r-eigenspaces of…

The natural generalization of the notion of bundle in quantum geometry is that of bimodule. If the base space has quantum group symmetries one is particularly interested in bimodules covariant (equivariant) under these symmetries. Most…

Given a compact Lie group $G$, a reconstruction theorem for free $G$-manifolds is proved. As a by-product reconstruction results for locally trivial bundles are presented. Next, the main theorem is generalized to $G$-manifolds with one…

We provide and study an equivariant theory of group (co)homology of a group G with coefficients in a gamma-equivariant G-module A, when a separate group "gamma" acts on G and A, generalizing the classical Eilenberg-MacLane (co)homology of…

Givental's $K$-theoretical $J$-function can be used to reconstruct genus zero $K$-theoretical Gromov--Witten invariants. We view this function as a fundamental solution of a $q$-difference system. In the case of projective spaces, we show…

This work is devoted to the study of the foundations of quantum K-theory, a K-theoretic version of quantum cohomology theory. In particular, it gives a deformation of the ordinary K-ring K(X) of a smooth projective variety X, analogous to…

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 describe recent work on positive descriptions of the structure constants of the cohomology of homogeneous spaces such as the Grassmannian, by degenerations and related methods. We give various extensions of these rules, some new and…

Let $\Uq$ be a quantum group. Regarding a (noncommutative) space with $\Uq$-symmetry as a $\Uq$-module algebra $A$, we may think of equivariant vector bundles on $A$ as projective $A$-modules with compatible $\Uq$-action. We construct an…

We define quantum automorphism groups of a wide range of discrete structures. The central tool for their construction is a generalisation of the Tannaka-Krein reconstruction theorem. For any direct sum of matrix algebras $M$, and any…

We use group homology to define invariants in algebraic K-theory and in an analogue of the Bloch group for Q-rank one lattices and for some other geometric structures. We also show that the Bloch invariants of CR structures and of flag…

We provide a framework for abstract reconstruction problems using the $K$-theory of categories with covering families, which we then apply to reformulate the edge reconstruction conjecture in graph theory. Along the way, we state some…

We establish a novel approach to computing $G$-equivariant cohomology for a finite group $G$, and demonstrate it in the case that $G = C_{p^n}$. For any commutative ring spectrum $R$, we prove a symmetric monoidal reconstruction theorem for…

In the example of complex grassmannians, we demonstrate various techniques available for computing genus-0 K-theoretic GW-invariants of flag manifolds and more general quiver varieties. In particular, we address explicit reconstruction of…

It has been proposed that cobordism and K-theory groups, which can be mathematically related in certain cases, are physically associated to generalised higher-form symmetries. As a consequence, they should be broken or gauged in any…
