Groups of almost upper triangular infinite matrices with entries indexed by integers are studied. It is shown that, when the matrices are over a finite field, these groups admit a nondiscrete totally disconnected, locally compact group…

We show that the vector bundle on the moduli stack $M_\mathrm{ell}$ of elliptic curves associated to the $2$-cell complex $C\nu$ is isomorphic to the de Rham cohomology sheaf $\mathrm{H}^1_\mathrm{dR}(\mathcal{E}/M_\mathrm{ell})$ of the…

We compute the topological simple structure set of closed manifolds which occur as total spaces of flat bundles over lens spaces S^l/(Z/p) with fiber an n-dimensjional torus T^n for an odd prime p and l greater or equal to 3, provided that…

We develop an approach to calculating the cup and cap products on Hochschild cohomology and homology of curved algebras associated with polynomials and their finite abelian symmetry groups. For polynomials with isolated critical points, the…

In this paper, we compute the homology group and cohomology algebra of various polyhedral product objects uniformly from the point of view of diagonal tensor product. As applications, we introduce the polyhedral product method into…

The subject of the present work is the de Rham part of non-commutative Hodge structures on the periodic cyclic homology of differential graded algebras and categories. We discuss explicit formulas for the corresponding connection on the…

The moduli stack of representations of a quiver, or coherent sheaves on a proper curve, carries two structures on its cohomology: a Hall algebra and braided vertex coalgebra. We show that they are compatible, by developing a formulation of…

A systematic study of the contributions at infinity for the cohomology of variations of polarized Hodge structures over quasicompact K\"ahler manifolds. Several isomorphisms between different cohomologies given.

Let $G$ be a compact and $1$--connected Lie group with a maximal torus $T$. Based on Schubert calculus on the flag manifold $G/T$ [15] we construct the integral cohomology ring $H^{\ast}(G)$ uniformly for all $G$.

We construct the vortex Floer homology group $VHF (M,\mu;H)$ for an aspherical Hamiltonian $G$-manifold $(M, \omega)$ with moment map $\mu$ and a class of $G$-invariant Hamiltonian loop $H_t$, following the proposal of [3]. This is a…

We show that mapping class groups associated to all types of real algebraic curves are virtual duality groups. We also deduce some results about the orbifold homotopy groups of the moduli spaces of real algebraic curves. We achieve these…

We introduce certain homology and cohomology subgroups for any almost complex structure and study their pureness, fullness and duality properties. Motivated by a question of Donaldson, we use these groups to relate J-tamed symplectic cones…

We consider the subspace of the homology of a covering space spanned by lifts of simple closed curves. Our main result is the existence of unbranched covers of surfaces where this is a proper subspace. More generally, for a fixed finite…

We introduce a commutative product of degree $-n$ on the homology $H_\ast(X)$ of an $n$-dimensional special cubical set $X$ and lift it on the free loop homology $H_\ast(\Lambda M)$ for $M=|X|$ to be the geometric realization. These…

We study the topology of the tropical moduli space parametrizing stable tropical curves of genus g with n marked points in which the bounded edges have total length 1, and prove that it is highly connected. Using the identification of this…

We present simple examples of finite-dimensional connected homogeneous spaces (they are actually topological manifolds) with nonhomogeneous and nonrigid factors. In particular, we give an elementary solution of an old problem in general…

If a closed smooth manifold $M$ with an action of a torus $T$ satisfies certain conditions, then a labeled graph $\mG_M$ with labeling in $H^2(BT)$ is associated with $M$, which encodes a lot of geometrical information on $M$. For instance,…

We study the graded derivation-based noncommutative differential geometry of the $Z_2$-graded algebra ${\bf M}(n| m)$ of complex $(n+m)\times(n+m)$-matrices with the ``usual block matrix grading'' (for $n\neq m$). Beside the…

The derived category of an algebraic variety might be a source of a myriad of new (categorical) symmetries. Some are predicted by homological mirror symmetry, to be obtained from the fundamental group of the space of complex structures of…

Let $f:G\rightarrow H$ be a homomorphism of groups, we construct a topological space $X_f$ such that its group of homeomorphisms is isomorphic to $G$, its group of homotopy classes of self-homotopy equivalences is isomorphic to $H$ and the…
