It is shown that Parisi-Sourlas supersymmetry of stochastic quantization is a Cartan model of equivariant cohomology. Equivariant cohomological structure of stochastic quantization of linear and non-linear sigma models are discussed.…
We construct a new family of knot concordance invariants $\theta^{(q)}(K)$, where $q$ is a prime number. Our invariants are obtained from the equivariant Seiberg-Witten-Floer cohomology, constructed by the author and Hekmati, applied to the…
We investigate Seiberg-Witten theory in the presence of real structures. Certain conditions are obtained so that integer valued real Seiberg-Witten invariants can be defined. In general we study properties of the real Seiberg-Witten…
This is a survey on the equivariant cohomology of Lie group actions on manifolds, from the point of view of de Rham theory. Emphasis is put on the notion of equivariant formality, as well as on applications to ordinary cohomology and to…
We analyze $S^1$ equivariant cohomology from the supergeometrical point of view. For this purpose we equip the external algebra of given manifold with equivariant even super(pre)symplectic structure, and show, that its Poincare-Cartan…
For each positive rational number $\epsilon$, we define $K$-theoretic $\epsilon$-stable quasimaps to certain GIT quotients $W\sslash G$. For $\epsilon>1$, this recovers the $K$-theoretic Gromov-Witten theory of $W\sslash G$ introduced in…
Billey and Braden defined a geometric pattern map on flag manifolds which extends the generalized pattern map of Billey and Postnikov on Weyl groups. The interaction of this torus equivariant map with the Bruhat order and its action on line…
We establish a system of PDE, called open WDVV, that constrains the bulk-deformed superpotential and associated open Gromov-Witten invariants of a Lagrangian submanifold $L \subset X$ with a bounding chain. Simultaneously, we define the…
We present a brief introduction to the Berline-Vergne localization formula which expresses the integral of an equivariant cohomology class as a sum over zeros of a vector field to which that class is related.
We prove a decomposition theorem for the quantum cohomology of variations of GIT quotients. More precisely, for any reductive group $G$ and a simple $G$-VGIT wall-crossing $X_- \dashrightarrow X_+$ with a wall $S$, we show that the quantum…
In this paper we shall give formulas for the pairings of intersection cohomology classes of complementary dimensions in the intersection cohomology of geometric invariant theoretic quotients for which semistability is not necessarily the…
An important combinatorial result in equivariant cohomology and $K$-theory Schubert calculus is represented by the formulas of Billey and Graham-Willems for the localization of Schubert classes at torus fixed points. These formulas work…
A cohomological study is made of an equivariant map betwen the configuration space of n points in space and the flag manifold of U(n).
A. Sikora has shown results which confirm the analogy between number fields and 3-manifolds. However, he has given proofs of his results which are very different in the arithmetic and in the topological case. In this paper, we show how to…
Generalizing a construction of Wolfgang L\"uck and Bob Oliver, we define a good equivariant cohomology theory on the category of proper G-CW complexes when G is an arbitrary Lie group (possibly non-compact). This is done by constructing an…
This is a survey of a variety of equivariant (co)homology theories for operator algebras. We briefly discuss a background on equivariant theories, such as equivariant $K$-theory and equivariant cyclic homology. As the main focus, we discuss…
In the present text we discuss basic aspects of the Seiberg - Witten theory mainly focusing the attantion on some geometrical details which could make the introduction to the subject more illustrative. At the same time we list there natural…
The goal of this paper is to give a new proof of a theorem of Meng and Taubes that identifies the Seiberg-Witten invariants of 3-manifolds with Milnor torsion. The point of view here will be that of topological quantum field theory. In…
In this paper, we study Hamiltonian R-actions on symplectic orbifolds [M/S], where R and S are tori. We prove an injectivity theorem and generalize Tolman-Weitsman's proof of the GKM theorem in this setting. The main example is the…
Equivariant quantization is a new theory that highlights the role of symmetries in the relationship between classical and quantum dynamical systems. These symmetries are also one of the reasons for the recent interest in quantization of…
