In this note we compute the cohomological obstruction to the existence of certain sheaves of vertex algebras on smooth varieties. These sheaves have been introduced and studied in the previous work by A.Vaintrob and two of the authors.…

We study intersection theory and Chern classes of reflexive sheaves on normal varieties. In particular, we define generalization of Mumford's intersection theory on normal surfaces to higher dimensions. We also define and study the second…

The purpose of this paper is to introduce a version of singular homology based on smooth mappings of manifolds with corners. Although variants of such a theory exists in the literature, we felt that certain points were not adequately…

The goal of this work is to construct a perverse t-structure on the infinity-category of l-adic LG-equivariant sheaves on the loop Lie algebra Lg and to show that the affine Grothendieck-Springer sheaf S is perverse. Moreover, S is an…

In this article, we investigate an axiomatic approach introduced by Grivaux for the study of rational Bott-Chern cohomology, and use it in that context to define Chern classes of coherent sheaves. This method also allows us to derive a…

This paper introduces the concept of representations for Com-PreLie algebras and develops corresponding cohomology theories, examining how cohomology groups can be applied in the context of Com-PreLie algebras. Initially, we utilize the…

The isometry class of the intersection form of a compact complex surface can be easily determined from complex-analytic invariants. For projective surfaces the primitive lattice is another naturally occurring lattice. The goal of this note…

The purpose of this paper is to introduce and study certain irreducible perverse l-adic sheaves on a reductive group G over a finite field (we call them gamma-sheaves). One can construct such a sheaf starting with (almost) every…

The method of intersection spaces associates cell-complexes depending on a perversity to certain types of stratified pseudomanifolds in such a way that Poincar\'e duality holds between the ordinary rational cohomology groups of the…

We generalize the Generic Model Theorem for equivariant presheaves of structures; extending the results of Macintyre and Caicedo. We also introduce a new class of generic cohomologies and show how, for some examples, they simplify to non…
