We give a new formula for the Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson class of a hypersurface in a nonsigular compact complex analytic variety. In particular this formula generalizes our previous result on the Euler characteristic of such a hypersurface.…

A central property of Chern insulators is the robustness of the topological phase and edge states to impurities in the system. Despite this, Chern number cannot be straightforwardly calculated in the presence of disorder. Recently, work has…

We give a complete classification of semistable rank two sheaves on three-dimensional projective space with maximal third Chern character. This implies an explicit description of their moduli spaces. As an open subset they contain rank two…

We develop a formula (Theorem 5.1) which allows to compute top Chern classes of vector bundles on the vanishing locus $V(s)$ of a section of this bundle. This formula particularly applies in the case when $V(s)$ is the union of locally…

This is a note on MacPherson's Chern class for algebraic stacks, based on a previous paper of the author [arXiv:math/0407348]. We also discuss other additive characteristic classes in the same manner.

We prove that Schur polynomials in Chern forms of Nakano and dual Nakano positive vector bundles are positive as differential forms. Moreover, modulo a statement about the positivity of a "double mixed discriminant" of linear operators on…

The central result here is an explicit computation of the Hochschild and cyclic homologies of a natural smooth subalgebra of stable continuous trace algebras having smooth manifolds X as their spectrum. More precisely, the Hochschild…

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…

This paper extends a number of known results on slope-semistable sheaves from the classical case to the setting where polarisations are given by movable curve classes. As applications, we obtain new flatness results for reflexive sheaves on…

We provide local expressions for Chern-Weil type forms built from superconnections associated with families of Dirac operators previously investigated in work by S. Scott and later work by S. Scott and the second author. When the underlying…

An explicit quantization of Chern-Simons theory leads to an identity between sums of the Kac-Weyl characters. One can use this identity to prove inequalities that constrain the fusion coefficients $N_{\mu\nu}^l$ in the case of RCFTs that…

Motivated by the Chern-Weil theory, we prove that for a given vector bundle $E$ on a smooth scheme $X$ over a field $k$ of any characteristic, the Chern classes of $E$ in the Hodge cohomology can be recovered from the Atiyah class. Although…

We first propose a conformal geometry for Connes-Landi noncommutative manifolds and study the associated scalar curvature. The new scalar curvature contains its Riemannian counterpart as the commutative limit. Similar to the results on…

We discuss residue formulae that localize the first Chern class of a line bundle to the singular locus of a given holomorphic connection. As an application, we explain a proof for Brunella's conjecture about exceptional minimal sets of…

We calculate the parabolic Chern character of a bundle with locally abelian parabolic structure on a smooth strict normal crossings divisor, using the definition in terms of Deligne-Mumford stacks. We obtain explicit formulas for $ch_1$,…

It has been argued by Witten and others that in the presence of a nontrivial B-field, D-brane charges in type IIB string theories are measured by twisted K-theory. In joint work with Bouwknegt, Carey and Murray it was proved that twisted…

In this paper, we develope an equivariant theory of Chern characters for coherent sheaves on compact complex manifolds with finite group actions, taking values in Bott-Chern cohomology classes. Furthermore, we establish the corresponding…

We observe that linear relations among Chern-Mather classes of projective varieties are preserved by projective duality. We deduce the existence of an explicit involution on a part of the Chow group of projective space, encoding the effect…

From 1980s, it is an open problem of proposing cohomologic formula for the basic index of a transversally elliptic basic differential operator on a vector bundle over a foliated manifold. In 1990s, El Kacimi-Alaoui has proprosed to use the…

In this paper we give explicit formulas of differential characteristic classes of principal $G$-bundles with connections and prove their expected properties. In particular, we obtain explicit formulas for differential Chern classes,…
