We define a "circle Euler characteristic" of a circle action on a compact manifold or finite complex X. It lies in the first Hochschild homology group of ZG where G is the fundamental group of X. It is analogous in many ways to the ordinary…

The goal of this work is to construct integral Chern classes and higher cycle classes for a smooth variety over a perfect field of characteristic p>0 that are compatible with the rigid Chern classes defined by Petrequin. The Chern classes…
The notions of (metric) hypersurface data were introduced in [Mars,2013] as a tool to analyze, from an abstract viewpoint, hypersurfaces of arbitrary signature in pseudo-riemannian manifolds. In this paper, general geometric properties of…
In this paper we introduce the Chern minimal surface in Hermitian surfaces by using the Chern connection, and we show that it only has isolated complex and anticomplex points for a generic one (neither holomorphic nor antiholomorphic). For…
In this paper we obtain some explicit expressions for the Euler characteristic of a rank n coherent sheaf F on P^N and of its twists F(t) as polynomials in the Chern classes c_i(F), also giving algorithms for the computation. The employed…
The main purpose of this article is to lay the foundations for a classification of isolated hypersurface singularities in positive characteristic. Although our article is in the spirit of Arnol'd who classified real an complex hypersurfaces…
Homology Hirzebruch characteristic classes for singular varieties have been recently defined by Brasselet-Schuermann-Yokura as an attempt to unify previously known characteristic class theories for singular spaces (e.g., MacPherson-Chern…

We give an overview of the fundamental definitions and results concerning hypersurface singularities, defined by convergent power series over an arbitrary real valued field. This approach combines, on the one hand, the classical case of…
What are called secondary characteristic classes in Chern-Weil theory are a refinement of ordinary characteristic classes of principal bundles from cohomology to differential cohomology. We consider the problem of refining the construction…
We offer a short proof of Connes' Hochschild class of the Chern character formula for non-unital semifinite spectral triples. The proof is simple due to its reliance on the authors' extensive work on a refined version of the local index…
