We prove a modified form of the classical Morrey-Kohn-H\"ormander identity, adapted to pseudoconcave boundaries. Applying this result to an annulus between two bounded pseudoconvex domains in $\mathbb{C}^n$, where the inner domain has…
We study the ergodic properties of Schr\"odinger operators on a compact connected Riemannian manifold $M$ without boundary in case that the underlying Hamiltonian system possesses certain symmetries. More precisely, let $M$ carry an…
A version of the Bondal-Orlov conjecture, proved by Bridgeland, states that if $X$ and $Y$ are smooth complex projective threefolds linked by a flop, then they are derived equivalent. Van den Bergh gave a new proof of Bridgeland's theorem…
We propose two conjectural relationships between the equivariant Gromov-Witten invariants of the resolved conifold under diagonal and anti-diagonal actions and the Gromov-Witten invariants of $\mathbb{P}^1$, and verify their validity in…
Let $M$ be an oriented even-dimensional Riemannian manifold on which a discrete group $\Gamma$ of orientation-preserving isometries acts freely, so that the quotient $X=M/\Gamma$ is compact. We prove a vanishing theorem for a half-kernel of…
We generalise the Atiyah-Segal-Singer fixed point theorem to noncompact manifolds. Using $KK$-theory, we extend the equivariant index to the noncompact setting, and obtain a fixed point formula for it. The fixed point formula is the…
Let F be a number field with adele ring A_F, and \pi an isobaric, algebraic automorphic representation of GL_4(A_F) of a fixed archimedean weight, which is quasi-regular, meaning that at every archimedean place v of F, the 4-dimensional…
Let $M$ be a globally hyperbolic manifold with complete spacelike Cauchy hypersurface $\Sigma \subset M$. Building on past and recent works of B\"ar and Strohmaier, we extend their Fredholm result of the Atiyah-Singer Dirac operator on…
If $G$ is a compact Lie group, $T$ a maximal torus in $G$ (with Lie algebras $\mathfrak{g}$ and $\mathfrak{t}$ respectively) and $W$ the corresponding Weyl group, then the Berry-Robbins problem for $G$, as formulated by Sir Michael Atiyah…
We define an invariant $\nabla_G(M)$ of pairs M,G, where M is a 3-manifold obtained by surgery on some framed link in the cylinder $S\times I$, S is a connected surface with at least one boundary component, and G is a fatgraph spine of S.…
Given a compatible vector field on a compact connected almost-complex manifold, we show in this article that the multiplicities of eigenvalues among the zero point set of this vector field have intimate relations. We highlight a special…
We study the Borel summation of the Gromov-Witten potential for the resolved conifold. The Stokes phenomena associated to this Borel summation are shown to encode the Donaldson-Thomas invariants of the resolved conifold, having a direct…
We present a new proof, as well as a ${\bf C/Q}$ extension, of the Riemann-Roch-Grothendieck theorem of Bismut-Lott for flat vector bundles. The main techniques used are the computations of the adiabatic limits of $\eta$-invariants…
We give a decomposition of the equivariant Kasparov category for discrete quantum group with torsions. As an outcome, we show that the crossed product by a discrete quantum group in a certain class preserves the UCT. We then show that…
In this paper, we develop the theory of punctured R-maps as a crucial component of logarithmic gauged linear sigma models (log GLSM). A punctured R-map is a punctured map in the sense of ACGS, further twisted by the sheaf of differentials…
Associated with the Davis-Januszkiewicz theory of small covers, this paper deals with the theory of 2-torus manifolds from the viewpoint of equivariant bordism. We define a differential operator on the "dual" algebra of the unoriented…
We study the cohomology $H^*_{\lambda \omega}(G/\Gamma, {\mathbb C})$ of the deRham complex $\Lambda^*(G/\Gamma)\otimes{\mathbb C}$ of a compact solvmanifold $G/\Gamma$ with a deformed differential $d_{\lambda \omega}=d + \lambda\omega$,…
Let $M$ be a finite volume analytic pseudo-Riemannian manifold that admits an isometric $G$-action with a dense orbit, where $G$ is a connected non-compact simple Lie group. For low-dimensional $M$, i.e. $\dim(M) < 2\dim(G)$, when the…
Let g be a complex simple Lie algebra and h a Cartan subalgebra. The Clifford algebra C(g) of g admits a Harish-Chandra map. Kostant conjectured (as communicated to Bazlov in about 1997) that the value of this map on a (suitably chosen)…
In [20] Esnault asked whether on a general quotient surface singularity the rank and the first Chern class distinguish isomorphism classes of indecomposable reflexive modules. Wunram gave a contraexample in [46] showing two different full…
