We compute the integer cohomology rings of the ``polygon spaces'' introduced in [Hausmann,Klyachko,Kapovich-Millson]. This is done by embedding them in certain toric varieties; the restriction map on cohomology is surjective and we…

We compute the integral cohomology ring of configuration spaces of two points on a given real projective space. Apart from an integral class, the resulting ring is a quotient of the known integral cohomology of the dihedral group of order 8…

We study real and integral structures in the space of solutions to the quantum differential equations. First we show that, under mild conditions, any real structure in orbifold quantum cohomology yields a pure and polarized tt^*-geometry…

We compute the integral homology and cohomology groups of configuration spaces of two distinct points on a given real projective space. The explicit answer is related to the (known multiplicative structure in the) integral cohomology---with…

The ring of symmetric functions carries the structure of a Hopf algebra. When computing the coproduct of complete symmetric functions $h_\lambda$ one arrives at weighted sums over reverse plane partitions (RPP) involving binomial…

The relationship between associative composition algebras of dimensions 2 and 4 within the context of homogeneous spaces, with a particular focus on Hamiltonian quaternions, is explored. In the special case of Hamiltonian quaternions, the…

Let $X(P,\lambda)$ be a 4-dimensional toric orbifold associated to a polygon $P$ and a characteristic function $\lambda$. Assuming that $X(P,\lambda)$ is locally smooth over a vertex of $P$, we determine the integral cohomology ring…

Let R be a commutative ring containing 1/2. We compute the R-cohomology ring of the configuration space F(m,k) of k ordered points in the m-dimensional real projective space. The method uses the observation that the orbit configuration…

Let G be a complex reductive group and X a projective spherical G-variety. Moreover, assume that the subalgebra A of the cohomology ring H^*(X, R) generated by the Chern classes of line bundles has Poincare duality. We give a description of…

In this paper, we study the structure of the quantum cohomology ring of a projective hypersurface with non-positive 1st Chern class. We prove a theorem which suggests that the mirror transformation of the quantum cohomology of a projective…

Over the complex numbers, the complement of a collection of hyperplanes is a widely-studied object; the cohomology ring, in particular, is known to have a structure depending only on the combinatorial properties of the intersection of…

Variables adapted to the quantum dynamics of spherically symmetric models are introduced, which further simplify the spherically symmetric volume operator and allow an explicit computation of all matrix elements of the Euclidean and…

Let Gamma be a congruence subgroup of the Picard modular group of an imaginary number field k, and let D be the associated symmetric space. We describe a method to compute the integral cohomology of the locally symmetric space Gamma\D. The…

We examine the integral cohomology rings of certain families of $2n$-dimensional orbifolds $X$ that are equipped with a well-behaved action of the $n$-dimensional real torus. These orbifolds arise from two distinct but closely related…

We compute the equivariant homology and cohomology of projective spaces with integer coefficients. More precisely, in the case of cyclic groups, we show that the cellular filtration of the projective space $P(k\rho )$, of lines inside…

This paper contains a thorough study of the trigonometry of the homogeneous symmetric spaces in the Cayley-Klein-Dickson family of spaces of 'complex Hermitian' type and rank-one. The complex Hermitian elliptic CP^N and hyperbolic CH^N…

In this paper, we attempt to determine the quantum cohomology of projective bundles over the projective space P^n. In contrast to the previous examples, the relevant moduli spaces in our case frequently do not have expected dimensions. It…

A projective hypersurface is nodal if it does not have singularities worse than simple nodes. We calculate the rational cohomology of the spaces of equations of nodal cubic and quartic plane curves and also nodal cubic surfaces in the…

Some projective wonderful models for the complement of a toric arrangement in a n-dimensional algebraic torus T were constructed in [3]. In this paper we describe their integer cohomology rings by generators and relations.

A new method is given for computing generators of the homology groups with integer coefficients for any finite $T_0$-space. An important role in this method is played by irreducible cycles which are defined here and give rise to continuous…
