This is the sequel of the first part math.DG/0611281. Here, the procedure of transgressing the families index theorem (the so-called $\eta$-form) is adapted to take in account the case of Dirac type operators with kernels of varying…
Let $p$ be a prime number, and let $A$ be a ring in which $p$ is nilpotent. In this paper, we consider the maps $$K_{q+1}(A[x]/(x^m), (x))\to K_{q+1}(A[x]/(x^{mn}), (x)),$$induced by the ring homomorphism $A[x]/(x^{m})\to A[x]/(x^{mn})$,…
In the present paper, we discuss applications of the derived completion theorems proven in our previous two papers. One of the main applications is to Riemann-Roch problems for forms of higher equivariant K-theory, which we are able to…
In order to study the properties of Lovelock gravity theories in low dimensions, we define the kth-order Riemann-Lovelock tensor as a certain quantity having a total 4k-indices, which is kth-order in the Riemann curvature tensor and shares…
In this paper, we explore how functor-induced isomorphisms are encoded by $G$-matrices. We first show that the Grothendieck group isomorphism induced by a tilting module can be realized via the $G$-matrix of this tilting module. Building on…
A functor on compact Hausdorf spaces is constructed as the sum of certain equivariant K-theory groups. It is shown that the functor takes values in lambda-rings and satisfies a Thom isomorphism. In the case that the space is a CW-complex…
We give an informal exposition of pushforwards and orientations in generalized cohomology theories in the language of spectra. The whole note can be seen as an attempt at convincing the reader that Todd classes in…
For a smooth quasi-projective scheme $X$ over a field $k$ with an action of a reductive group, we establish a spectral sequence connecting the equivariant and the ordinary higher Chow groups of $X$. For $X$ smooth and projective, we show…
We show that the characteristic polynomial and the Lefschetz zeta function are manifestations of the trace map from the $K$-theory of endomorphisms to topological restriction homology (TR). Along the way we generalize Lindenstrauss and…
We consider pro-isomorphic zeta functions of the groups $\Gamma(\mathcal{O}_K)$, where $\Gamma$ is a unipotent group scheme defined over $\mathbb{Z}$ and $K$ varies over all number fields. Under certain conditions, we show that these…
Let f be a function from the set of rational numbers into itself. We call f a global power map if f(n) = n^k for some integer exponent k. We call f a local power map at the prime number p if f induces a well-defined group homomorphism on…
In this article we study the space of left- and bi-invariant orderings on a torsion-free nilpotent group $G$. We will show that generally the set of such orderings is equipped with a faithful action of the automorphism group of $G$. We…
We introduce the notion of tight homomorphism into a locally compact group with nonvanishing bounded cohomology and study these homomorphisms in detail when the target is a Lie group of Hermitian type. Tight homomorphisms between Lie groups…
Given a regular function $\phi$ on a smooth stack, and a $(-1)$-shifted Lagrangian $M$ on the derived critical locus of $\phi$, under fairly general hypotheses, we construct a pullback map from the Grothendieck group of coherent matrix…
The purpose of this paper is to generalise Sullivan's rational homotopy theory to non-nilpotent spaces, providing an alternative approach to defining Toen's schematic homotopy types over any field k of characteristic zero. New features…
Let $G$ be a linear semisimple algebraic group and $B$ its Borel subgroup. Let $\mathbb{T}\subset B$ be the maximal torus. We study the inductive construction of Bott-Samelson varieties to obtain recursive formulas for the twisted motivic…
Let $G$ be a complex, linear algebraic group acting on an algebraic space $X$. The purpose of this paper is to prove a Riemann-Roch theorem (Theorem 5.3) which gives a description of the completion of the equivariant Grothendieck group…
The Stolz--Teichner program proposes a deep connection between geometric field theories and certain cohomology theories. In this paper, we extend this connection by developing a theory of geometric power operations for geometric field…
The primary goal of this paper is to investigate the structure of irreducible monomorphisms to and irreducible epimorphisms from finitely generated free modules over a noetherian local ring. Then we show that over such a ring,…
We derive a class of variational functionals which arise naturally in conformal geometry. In the special case when the Riemannian manifold is locally conformal flat, the functional coincides with the well studied functional which is the…
