We prove a cyclic cohomological analogue of Haefliger's van Est-type theorem for the groupoid of germs of diffeomorphisms of a manifold. The differentiable version of cyclic cohomology is associated to the algebra of transverse differential…
We give a geometric proof of the Decomposition Theorem of Beilinson, Bernstein, Deligne and Gabber for the direct image of the intersection cohomology complex under a proper map of complex algebraic varieties. The method rests on new…
We present an unified construction for algebras and modules homologies and cohomologies, in the case of associative, commuttaive, Lie and Gerstenhaber algebras. We make a distinction between the linear part of the construction of algebras…
We study the class of all algebras that are isotopic to a Hurwitz algebra. Isomorphism classes of such algebras are shown to correspond to orbits of a certain group action. A complete, geometrically intuitive description of the category of…
We survey interactions between the topology and the combinatorics of complex hyperplane arrangements. Without claiming to be exhaustive, we examine in this setting combinatorial aspects of fundamental groups, associated graded Lie algebras,…
Split-metric decompositions are an important tool in the theory of phylogenetics, particularly because of the link between the tight span and the class of totally decomposable spaces, a generalization of metric trees whose decomposition…
The evolution of a large class of biological, physical and engineering systems can be studied through both dynamical systems theory and Hamiltonian mechanics. The former theory, in particular its specialization to study systems with…
We give the first tractable and systematic examples of nontrivial higher digraph homotopy groups. To do this we define relative digraph homotopy groups and show these satisfy a long exact sequence analogous to the relative homotopy groups…
In this paper, we survey constructions of and nonexistence results on combinatorial/geometric structures which arise from unions of cyclotomic classes of finite fields. In particular, we survey both classical and recent results on…
For a given finite dimensional Hopf algebra $H$ we describe the set of all equivalence classes of cocycle deformations of $H$ as an affine variety, using methods of geometric invariant theory. We show how our results specialize to the…
Over the complex numbers, the complement of a collection of hyperplanes is a widely-studied object; the cohomology ring, in particular, is known to have a structure depending only on the combinatorial properties of the intersection of…
This text presents some basic notions in symplectic geometry, Poisson geometry, Hamiltonian systems, Lie algebras and Lie groups actions on symplectic or Poisson manifolds, momentum maps and their use for the reduction of Hamiltonian…
After recalling the construction of a graded Lie bracket on the space of cyclic multilinear forms on a vector space V, due to Georges Pinczon and Rosane Ushirobira, we prove this construction gives a structure of quadratic associative…
A paper by Haynes Miller shows that there is a filtration on the unitary groups that splits in the stable homotopy category, where the stable summands are certain Thom spaces over Grassmannians. We give an algebraic version of this result…
Linde, Moore, and Nordahl introduced a generalisation of the honeycomb dimer model to higher dimensions. The purpose of this article is to describe a number of structural properties of this generalised model. First, it is shown that the…
There is a family of seventh-degree polynomials $H$ whose members possess the symmetries of a simple group of order 168. This group has an elegant action on the complex projective plane. Developing some of the action's rich algebraic and…
We establish the following splitter theorem for graphs and its generalization for matroids: Let $G$ and $H$ be $3$-connected simple graphs such that $G$ has an $H$-minor and $k:=|V(G)|-|V(H)|\ge 2$. Let $n:=\left\lceil k/2\right\rceil+1$.…
In this paper we shall give formulas for the pairings of intersection cohomology classes of complementary dimensions in the intersection cohomology of geometric invariant theoretic quotients for which semistability is not necessarily the…
Dualities are hidden symmetries that map seemingly unrelated physical systems onto each other. The goal of this work is to systematically construct families of Hamiltonians endowed with a given duality and to provide a universal description…
We study from a Hamiltonian point of view the generalized dispersionless KdV hierarchy of equations. From the so called dispersionless Lax representation of these equations we obtain three compatible Hamiltonian structures. The second and…
