In this paper, we construct for higher twists that arise from cohomotopy classes, the Chern character in higher twisted K-theory, that maps into higher twisted cohomology. We show that it gives rise to an isomorphism between higher twisted…
We prove some closed formulas for the logarithmic Chern character of a locally free sheaf. The argument used is representation-theoretic and we connect these formulas with the actions of some Casimir elements of $\mathfrak{sl}_r$. As an…
Motivated by the geometric character of spin Hall conductance, the topological invariants of generic superconductivity are discussed based on the Bogoliuvov-de Gennes equation on lattices. They are given by the Chern numbers of degenerate…
We give a formula for the Chern character on the DG-category of global matrix factorizations on a smooth scheme $X$ with superpotential $w\in \Gamma(\mathcal{O}_X)$. Our formula takes values in a Cech model for Hochschild homology. Our…
We consider the following construction of quantization. For a Riemannian manifold $M$ the space of forms on $T^*M$ is made into a space of (full) symbols of operators acting on forms on $M$. This gives rise to the composition of symbols,…
Characteristic classes, which are abstract topological invariants associated with vector bundles, have become an important notion in modern physics with surprising real-world consequences. As a representative example, the incredible…
The double ramification (DR) cycle associated to a line bundle on a family of curves detects where the line bundle becomes fibrewise-trivial. The Hodge-DR Conjecture proposes a formula for powers of the first Chern class of a natural line…
We introduce a new family of tautological relations of the moduli space of stable curves of genus $g$. These relations are obtained by computing the Poincar\'e-dual class of empty loci in the Hodge bundle. We use these relations to obtain a…
In this note, we present a topological proof of the generalized Lelong-Poincar\'e formula. More precisely, when the zero locus of a section has a pure codimension equal to the rank of a holomorphic vector bundle, the top Chern class of the…
Libgober and Wood proved that the Chern number $c_{1}c_{n-1}$ of a $n$-dimensional compact complex manifold can be determined by its Hirzebruch $\chi_{y}$-genus. Inspired by the idea of their proof, we show that, for compact, spin,…
Let $Q$ be a differential operator of order $\leq 1$ on a complex metric vector bundle $\mathscr{E}\to \mathscr{M}$ with metric connection $\nabla$ over a possibly noncompact Riemannian manifold $\mathscr{M}$. Under very mild regularity…
For any (n-1)-dimensional simplicial complex, we construct a particular n-dimensional complex vector bundle over the associated Davis-Januszkiewicz space whose Chern classes are given by the elementary symmetric polynomials in the…
We prove that the cyclic homology of a scheme with an ample line bundle coincides with the cyclic homology of its category of algebraic vector bundles. As a byproduct of the proof, we obtain a new construction of the Chern character of a…
We introduce the notion of a {\vartheta}-summable Fredholm module over a locally convex dg algebra {\Omega} and construct its Chern character as a cocycle on the entire cyclic complex of {\Omega}, extending the construction of Jaffe,…
Let us consider a generic n-dimensional subbundle V of the tangent bundle TM on some given manifold M. Given V one can define different degeneracy loci S_r(CV), r=(r_1<= r_2<= r_3<=...<=r_k) on M consisting of all points x in M for which…
Using the Dirac and the Yang monopole in spinor condensates as examples, we show that interactions can stretch the point singularity of a monopole into an extended manifold, whose shape is strongly influenced by the sign of interaction. The…
Let $\mathscr{V}\mathrm{ect}_n$ be the moduli stack of vector bundles of rank $n$ on schemes. We prove that, if $E$ is a Zariski sheaf of ring spectra which is equipped with finite quasi-smooth transfers and satisfies the projective bundle…
We classify nef vector bundles on a smooth hyperquadric of dimension $\geq 4$ with first Chern class two over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero.
Let [X/G] be a smooth Deligne-Mumford quotient stack. In a previous paper the authors constructed a class of exotic products called inertial products on K(I[X/G]), the Grothendieck group of vector bundles on the inertia stack I[X/G]. In…
We study singular hermitian metrics on holomorphic vector bundles, following Berndtsson-P{\u{a}}un. Previous work by Raufi has shown that for such metrics, it is in general not possible to define the curvature as a current with measure…
