We present a functorial computation of the equivariant intersection cohomology of a hypertoric variety, and endow it with a natural ring structure. When the hyperplane arrangement associated with the hypertoric variety is unimodular, we…

We compute the rational Chow ring of the moduli stack of planar nodal curves of fixed degree and express it in terms of tautological classes. Along the way, we extend Vial's results on Chow groups of Brauer-Severi varieties to…

Long ago, in math.AG/0112004, we pledged more details on the algebraic version of Chen-Ruan's math.AG/0103156. This is it.

Given a sheaf on a projective space P^n we define a sequence of canonical and easily computable Chow complexes on the Grassmannians of planes in P^n, generalizing the Beilinson monad on P^n. If the sheaf has dimension k, then the Chow form…

We provide a stacky fan description of the total space of certain split vector bundles, as well as their projectivization, over toric Deligne-Mumford stacks. We then specialize to the case of Hirzebruch orbifold $\mathcal{H}_{r}^{ab}$…

This paper proves a result on the existence of finite flat scheme covers of Deligne-Mumford stacks. This result is used to prove that a large class of smooth Deligne-Mumford stacks with affine moduli space are quotient stacks, and in the…

We prove a Hochschild--Konstant--Rosenberg (HKR) theorem for arbitrary derived Deligne--Mumford (DM) stacks, extending the results of Arinkin-C\u{a}ld\u{a}raru-Hablicsek in the smooth, global quotient case, although with different methods.…

We present a new topological method to study the discriminantal loci of an algebraic variety defined in a product of projective spaces. Our approach relies on an efficient use of groupoid to describe the monodromy. As an example, we treat…

We generalize classical results about the topology of toric varieties to the case of projective Q-factorial T-varieties of complexity one using the language of divisorial fans. We describe the Hodge-Deligne polynomial in the smooth case,…

By resolving an arbitrary perfect derived object over a Deligne-Mumford stack, we define its Euler class. We then apply it to define the Euler numbers for a smooth Calabi-Yau threefold in the 4-dimensional projective space. These numbers…

In this paper we give a complete description of the integral Chow ring of the stack $\mathscr{H}_{g,1}$ of 1-pointed hyperelliptic curves, lifting relations and generators from the Chow ring of $\mathscr{H}_g$. We also give a geometric…

We study the integral Chow ring of the stack $\mathcal{H}_{g,n}$ parametrizing $n$-pointed smooth hyperelliptic curves of genus $g$. We compute the integral Chow ring of $\mathcal{H}_{g,n}$ for $n=1,2$ completely, while for $3\leq…

The first goal of this survey paper is to argue that if orbifolds are groupoids, then the collection of orbifolds and their maps has to be thought of as a 2-category. Compare this with the classical definition of Satake and Thurston of…

We make a new attempt at the recently suggested program to express knot polynomials through topological vertices, which can be considered as a possible approach to the tangle calculus: we discuss the Macdonald deformation of the relation…

We compute the Grothendieck and Picard groups of a complete smooth toric Deligne-Mumford stack by using a suitable category of graded modules over a polynomial ring.

This paper introduces a chain model for the Deligne-Mumford operad formed by homotopically trivializing the circle in a chain model for the framed little disks. We then show that under degeneration of the Hochschild to cyclic cohomology…

We discuss a symplectic counterpart of the theory of stacky fans. First, we define a stacky polytope and construct the symplectic Deligne-Mumford stack associated to the stacky polytope. Then we establish a relation between stacky polytopes…

We study $p$-adic manifolds associated with twisted points of quotient stacks $\mathcal{X} = [U/G]$ and their quotient spaces $\pi:\mathcal{X} \to X$. We prove several structural results about the fibres of $\pi$ and derive in particular a…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition in order for a hyperplane arrangement to be of Torelli type, namely that it is recovered as the set of unstable hyperplanes of its Dolgachev sheaf of logarithmic differentials. Decompositions and…

For a smooth Deligne-Mumford stack over $\CC$, we define its associated Kodaira-Spencer differential graded Lie algebra and show that the deformation functor of the stack is isomorphic to the deformation functor of the Kodaira-Spencer…
