We show that a flat principal bundle with compact connected structure group and its adjoint bundles of Lie groups have the same cohomology as the trivial bundle, which is done by proving they satisfy the condition for the Leray-Hirsch…
We construct decompositions of: (1) the cohomology of smooth stacks, (2) the Borel--Moore homology of $0$-shifted symplectic stacks, and (3) the vanishing cycle cohomology of $(-1)$-shifted symplectic stacks, assuming a good moduli space…
We extend the definition of the unramified curve-tame cohomology groups to $\mathbb{A}^1$-invariant \'etale sheaves under some additional hypotheses. We define a pairing of this group with the Suslin homology satisfying desirable properties…
With a basic knowledge of cohomology theory, the background necessary to understand Hodge theory and polarization, Deligne's Mixed Hodge Structure on cohomology of complex algebraic varieties is described.
A generalisation of the equivariant Dixmier-Douady invariant is constructed as a second-degree cohomology class within a new semi-equivariant \v{C}ech cohomology theory. This invariant obstructs liftings of semi-equivariant principal…
Just as $\Cstar$ principal bundles provide a geometric realisation of two-dimensional integral cohomology; gerbes or sheaves of groupoids, provide a geometric realisation of three dimensional integral cohomology through their Dixmier-Douady…
We define the appropriate homological setting to study deformation theory of complete locally convex (curved) dg-algebras based on Positselski's contraderived categories. We define the corresponding Hochschild complex controlling…
We introduce and compare two approaches to equivariant homotopy theory in a topological or ordinary Quillen model category. For the topological model category of spaces, we generalize Piacenza's result that the categories of topological…
The goal of this paper is to present results which are consistent with conjectures about the Leibniz (co)homology for discrete groups stated by J. L. Loday. We show that rack cohomology has properties very close to the properties expected…
We prove a version of Quillen's stratification theorem in equivariant homotopy theory for a finite group $G$, generalizing the classical theorem in two directions. Firstly, we work with arbitrary commutative equivariant ring spectra as…
We construct an infinite family of homology theories of framed links in thickened surfaces, as well as a homology theory whose graded Euler characteristic is exactly the Kauffman bracket of the link in the surface. Both theories are based…
The equivalence of principal bundles with transitive Lie groupoids due to Ehresmann is a well known result. A remarkable generalisation of this equivalence, due to Mackenzie, is the equivalence of principal bundle extensions with those…
We show a de Rham theory for cubical manifolds, and study rational homotopy type of the classifying spaces of smooth quandles. We also show that secondary characteristic classes in \cite{Dup2,DK} produce cocycles of quandles.
We study the cohomology of Deligne-Lusztig varieties with aim the construction of actions of Hecke algebras on such cohomologies, as predicted by the conjectures of Brou\'{e}, Malle and Michel ultimately aimed at providing an explicit…
In this short note we show that the homotopy category of smooth compactifications of smooth algebraic varieties is equivalent to the homotopy category of smooth varieties over a field of characteristic zero. As an application we show that…
We compare three different ways of defining group cohomology with coefficients in a crossed-module: 1) explicit approach via cocycles; 2) geometric approach via gerbes; 3) group theoretic approach via butterflies. We discuss the case where…
This work establishes the geometric component of Deligne's longstanding program on refined Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch formulas expressed through determinants of cohomology. The approach relies on a newly developed universal category of Chern…
We compute the moduli of endomorphisms of the de Rham and crystalline cohomology functors, viewed as a cohomology theory on smooth schemes over truncated Witt vectors. As applications of our result, we deduce Drinfeld's refinement of the…
We study the cohomology of parabolic Deligne-Lusztig varieties associated to unipotent blocks of GLn(q). We show that the geometric version of Brou\'e's conjecture over Q_\ell, together with Craven's formula, holds for any unipotent block…
The paper deals with the cohomological invariants of smooth and connected linear algebraic groups over an arbitrary field. More precisely, we study degree $2$ invariants with coefficients $\mathbb{Q}/\mathbb{Z}(1)$, that is invariants…
