In this paper, I construct noncompact analogs of the Chern classes of equivariant vector bundles over complex reductive groups. For the tangent bundle, these Chern classes yield an adjunction formula for the Euler characteristic of complete…
Complete proofs of Schur-Weyl duality in positive characteristic are scarce in the literature. The purpose of this survey is to write out the details of such a proof, deriving the result in positive characteristic from the classical result…
We present in this article a family of new combinatorial identities via purely differential/complex geometry methods, which include as a speical case a unified and explicit formula for Chern numbers of all complex flag manifolds. Our…
In this note we show that the Chern character form of a superconnection is obtained via the parallel transport of the superconnection along superpaths, by restriction to the universal superpoint path.
We compute the Chern-Connes character (a map from the $K$-theory of a C$^*$-algebra under the action of a Lie group to the cohomology of its Lie algebra) for the $L^2$-norm closure of the algebra of all classical zero-order…
The purpose of this paper is to prove the localization theorem for torus actions in equivariant intersection theory. Using the theorem we give another proof of the Bott residue formula for Chern numbers of bundles on smooth complete…
We obtain several new characterizations of splayedness for divisors: a Leibniz property for ideals of singularity subschemes, the vanishing of a `splayedness' module, and the requirements that certain natural morphisms of modules and…
Consider an involution of a smooth projective variety over a field of characteristic not two. We look at the relations between the variety and the fixed locus of the involution from the point of view of cobordism. We show in particular that…
In this paper, we study residues of differential 2-forms on a smooth algebraic surface over an arbitrary field and give several statements about sums of residues. Afterwards, using these results we construct algebraic-geometric codes which…
A smooth, strongly $\mathbb{C}$-convex, real hypersurface $S$ in $\mathbb{CP}^n$ admits a projective dual CR structure in addition to the standard CR structure. Given a smooth function $u$ on $S$, we provide characterizations for when $u$…
We review a proof of the well know result stating that moduli spaces of stable sheaves with fixed Chern character on a polarized $K3$ surface are deformations of a hyperk\"ahler variety of Type $K3^{[n]}$ (if a suitable numerical hypothesis…
In this paper we continue the study of character sheaves on a reductive group G. To each subset of the set of simple reflections in the Weyl group we associate an algebra of the same kind as an Iwahori-Hecke algebra with unequal parameters…
Let X be a projective complex K3 surface. Beauville and Voisin singled out a 0-cycle c_X on X of degree 1: it is represented by any point lying on a rational curve in X. Huybrechts proved that the second Chern class of a rigid simple…
We define and study the secondary Chern-Euler class for a general submanifold of a Riemannian manifold. Using this class, we define and study index for a vector field with non-isolated singularities on a submanifold. As an application, our…
We compute the Chern-Simons transgressed forms of some modularly invariant characteristic forms, which are related to the elliptic genera. We study the modularity properties of these secondary characteristic forms and the relations among…
A residue formula is given for the Verlinde formula, which allows one to calculate its coefficients as a polynomial in the level and connects it to the Riemann-Roch formula on the moduli space of vector bundles on a curve.
We use the mapping cone for the relative deRham cohomology of a manifold with boundary in order to show that the Chern-Gauss-Bonnet Theorem for oriented Riemannian vector bundles over such manifolds is a manifestation of Lefschetz Duality…
For moduli space of stable parabolic bundles on a compact Riemann surface, we derive an explicit formula for the curvature of its canonical line bundle with respect to Quillen's metric and interpret it as a local index theorem for the…
We give a short proof of a formula of de Shalit, expressing the cup product of two vector valued one forms of the second kind on a Mumford curve in terms of Coleman integrals and residues. The proof uses the notion of double indices on…
We develop a theory of generalized characters of local systems in $\infty$-categories, which extends classical character theory for group representations and, in particular, the induced character formula. A key aspect of our approach is…
