Suppose one is given a discrete group G, a cocompact proper G-manifold M, and a G-self-map f of M. Then we introduce the equivariant Lefschetz class of f, which is globally defined in terms of cellular chain complexes, and the local…

We extend the definitions and main properties of graded extensions to the category of locally compact groupoids endowed with involutions. We introduce Real \v{C}ech cohomology, which is an equivariant-like cohomology theory suitable for the…

We study sections of the relative Picard bundle of a family of curves of genus $g \geq 2$ through the rank of the associated normal function. Using Griffiths' formula for the infinitesimal invariant and higher Schiffer variations, we…

For conic bundles on a smooth variety (over a field of characteristic $\ne 2$) which degenerate into pairs of distinct lines over geometric points of a smooth divisor, we prove a theorem which relates the Brauer class of the non-degenerate…

In analogy to the topological entropy for continuous endomorphisms of totally disconnected locally compact groups, we introduce a notion of topological entropy for continuous endomorphisms of locally linearly compact vector spaces. We study…

To study infinitesimal deformation problems with cohomology constraints, we introduce and study cohomology jump functors for differential graded Lie algebra (DGLA) pairs. We apply this to local systems, vector bundles, Higgs bundles, and…

Using an elementary argument, we prove new fixed point theorems for classical elliptic complexes. We obtain new results for conformal relations and coisotropic intersections. We obtain theorems for the average intersections of families of…

This paper provides some technical results needed in "Formalism for Relative Gromov-Witten Invariants." We study line-bundles on the moduli stacks of relative stable and rubber maps that are used to define relative Gromov-Witten invariants…

We prove Bertini type theorems and give some applications of them. The applications are in the context of Lefschetz theorem for Nori fundamental group for normal varieties as well as for geometric formal orbifolds. In another application,…

This paper is motivated by Deninger's programme. First we prove, using Alvarez Lopez-Kordyukov results, an Atiyah-Bott-Lefschetz trace formula for the cohomology groups associated to a ramified leafwise flat line bundle on a riemannian…

We first study the descent theory of line bundles under a morphism which is tors or under a group stack and then use this technical result to determine the exact structure of $\Pic(\M_G)$ where $G=\SL_r/\mu_s$ (we include a minor…

We introduce the theory of unipotent morphisms of algebraic stacks and prove a surprising local to global principle for a class of vector bundles. Two sample applications of our methods are the following: (1) a unipotent analogue of…

We introduce the concept of alternate-edge-colourings for maps, and study highly symmetric examples of such maps. Edge-biregular maps of type $(k,l)$ occur as smooth normal quotients of a particular index two subgroup of $T_{k,l}$, the full…

We study cohomology for $p$-local finite groups with non-constant coefficient systems. In particular we show that under certain restrictions there exists a cohomology transfer map in this context, and deduce the standard consequences.

VB-groupoids are vector bundles in the category of Lie groupoids. They encompass several classical objects, including Lie group representations and 2-vector spaces. Moreover, they provide geometric pictures for 2-term representations up to…

In this note, we give an elementary proof of the result given by Schenzel that there are functorial isomorphisms between local cohomology groups and \v{C}ech cohomology groups, by using weakly proregular sequences. In [Sch03], he used…

We prove a spectral decomposition theorem for a well-known self-similar graph, for some finite graphs which are quotients of this graph and for a compactification of it.

Let $G$ be a finite group and $k$ a field of prime characteristic $p$. We examine the Lefschetz homomorphism $\Lambda: \mathcal{E}_k(G) \to O(T(kG))$ from the group of endotrivial complexes, i.e. the Picard group of the bounded homotopy…

We prove the finiteness of the kernel of the localization map in the Galois cohomology of a connected reductive group over a global field

We study questions surrounding cup-product maps which arise from pairs of non-degenerate line bundles on an abelian variety. Important to our work is Mumford's index theorem which we use to prove that non-degenerate line bundles exhibit…
