We study the de Rham 1-cohomology H^1_{DR}(M,G) of a smooth manifold M with values in a Lie group G. By definition, this is the quotient of the set of flat connections in the trivial principle bundle $M\times G$ by the so-called gauge…

Consider the ring R:=\Q[\tau,\tau^{-1}] of Laurent polynomials in the variable \tau. The Artin's Pure Braid Groups (or Generalized Pure Braid Groups) act over R, where the action of every standard generator is the multiplication by \tau. In…

A new invariant of Poisson manifolds, a Poisson K-ring, is introduced. Hypothetically, this invariant is more tractable than such invariants as Poisson (co)homology. A version of this invariant is also defined for arbitrary algebroids.…

In this paper, we will develop a family of braid representations of Artin groups of type B from braided vector spaces, and identify the homology of these groups with these coefficients with the cohomology of a specific bimodule over a…

In \cite{Manturov} the second author defined the $k$-free braid group with $n$ strands $G_{n}^{k}$. These groups appear naturally as groups describing dynamical systems of $n$ particles in some "general position". Moreover, in…

We present the fundamental properties of the K-theory groups of complex vector bundles endowed with actions of magnetic groups. In this work we show that the magnetic equivariant K-theory groups define an equivariant cohomology theory, we…

Let G be a compact, simple and simply connected Lie group and $\A$ be an equivariant Dixmier-Douady bundle over G. For any fixed level k, we can define a G-C*-algebra $C_{\A^{k+h}}(G)$ as all the continuous sections of the tensor power…

We study the subgroup B_0(G) of H^2(G,Q/Z) consisting of all elements which have trivial restrictions to every Abelian subgroup of G. The group B_0(G) serves as the simplest nontrivial obstruction to stable rationality of algebraic…

Let G be a compact connected Lie group, and (M,\omega) a Hamiltonian G-space with proper moment map \mu. We give a surjectivity result which expresses the K-theory of the symplectic quotient M//G in terms of the equivariant K-theory of the…

Representations of the Iwahori-Hecke algebra of type A_{n-1} are equivalent to representations of the braid group B_n for which the generators satisfy a certain quadratic relation. We show how to construct such representations from the…

Braid groups may be defined for every Coxeter diagram. Artin's braid group is of type A. Analogs of Temperley-Lieb, Hecke and Birman-Wenzl algebras exist for B-type. Our general hypothethis is that the braid group of B-type replaces Artin's…

The purpose of this article is to describe the integral cohomology of the braid group B_3 and SL_2(Z) with local coefficients in a classical geometric representation given by symmetric powers of the natural symplectic representation. These…

We define a family of representations $\{\rho_n\}_{n\geq 0}$ of a pure braid group $P_{2k}$. These representations are obtained from an action of $P_{2k}$ on a certain type of $A_2$ web space with color $n$. The $A_2$ web space is a…

Let $d \geq 2$ and $n\geq 3$ be two natural numbers. Given any sequence $\kappa=(k_1,\dots,k_n) \in \mathbb{Z}^n$ such that $\gcd(k_1,\dots,k_n,d)=1$, we consider the family of Riemann surfaces obtained from the plane curves defined by…

Let $G$ be a finite group, $p$ a prime, and $(K,\mathcal{O},F)$ a $p$-modular system. We prove that the trivial source ring of $\mathcal{O} G$ is isomorphic to the ring of {\em coherent} $G$-stable tuples $(\chi_P)$, where $\chi_P$ is a…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, F its algebraically closed extension, and G be the group of k-automorphisms of F endowed with a natural topology. One of the purposes of this paper is to show that any…

Renault, Wassermann, Handelman and Rossmann (early 1980s) and Evans and Gould (1994) explicitly described the $K$-theory of certain unital AF-algebras $A$ as (quotients of) polynomial rings. In this paper, we show that in each case the…

The general construction of self-adjoint configuration space representations of the Heisenberg algebra over an arbitrary manifold is considered. All such inequivalent representations are parametrised in terms of the topology classes of flat…

Let $ \mathfrak{g} $ be a quasitriangular Lie bialgebra over a field $ K $ of characteristic zero, and let $ \mathfrak{g}^* $ be its dual Lie bialgebra. We prove that the formal Poisson group $ K\big[\big[\mathfrak{g}^*\big]\big] $ is a…

To a tree of semi-simple algebras we associate a qurve (or formally smooth algebra) S. We introduce a Zariski- and etale quiver describing the finite dimensional representations of S. In particular, we show that all quotient varieties of…
