The Gamma-class is a characteristic class for complex manifolds with transcendental coefficients. It defines an integral structure of quantum cohomology, or more precisely, an integral lattice in the space of flat sections of the quantum…
We introduce the notion of \textit{relative $L^p$-cohomology} as a quasi-isometry invariant defined for Gromov-hyperbolic spaces, and apply it to the problem of quasi-isometry classification of Heintze groups. More precisely, we explicitly…
In a previous paper [3] we computed cohomology groups H^5 (Gamma_0 (N), \C), where Gamma_0 (N) is a certain congruence subgroup of SL (4, \Z), for a range of levels N. In this note we update this earlier work by extending the range of…
We present sufficient conditions for the cohomology of a closed aspherical manifold to be proper Lipschitz in sense of Connes-Gromov-Moscovici [CGM]. The conditions are stated in terms of the Stone-\v{C}ech compactification of the universal…
We use K-area homology to summarize some results about the Novikov conjecture and the Hirzebruch L-class. In fact, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for closed manifolds to have a homotopy invariant L-class. In order to obtain…
We introduce $\Delta$-groups and show how they fit in the context of lattice field theory. To a manifold $M$ we associate a $\Delta$-group $\Gamma(M)$. We define the symmetric cohomology $HS^n(G,A)$ of a group $G$ with coefficients in a…
The goal of the course was a review of results mainly due to M. Olbrich and the first author. We consider a discrete cocompact subgroup $\Gamma$ of a semisimple Lie group $G$. We relate the group cohomology of $\Gamma$ with coefficients in…
We study the cohomology $H^*_{\lambda \omega}(G/\Gamma, {\mathbb C})$ of the deRham complex $\Lambda^*(G/\Gamma)\otimes{\mathbb C}$ of a compact solvmanifold $G/\Gamma$ with a deformed differential $d_{\lambda \omega}=d + \lambda\omega$,…
The cohomology $H^*(\Gamma, E) $ of a torsion-free arithmetic subgroup $\Gamma$ of the special linear $\mathbb{Q}$-group $\mathsf{G} = SL_n$ may be interpreted in terms of the automorphic spectrum of $\Gamma$. Within this framework, there…
A general conjecture of Harder relates the denominator of the Eisenstein cohomology of certain locally symmetric spaces to special values of $L$-functions. In this paper we consider the locally symmetric space…
Consider a locally compact quantum group $\mathbb{G}$ with a closed classical abelian subgroup $\Gamma$ equipped with a $2$-cocycle $\Psi:\hat{\Gamma}\times\hat{\Gamma}\to\mathbb{C}$. We study in detail the associated Rieffel deformation…
Let $\Gamma$ be a closed subset of a complete Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension $\geq 2$, let $f: M \to N$ be a Lipschitz map to a complete Riemannian manifold $N$, and let $\psi$ be a continuous function which dominates the local…
For any rank-one Riemannian symmetric space S of non-compact type and any discrete, cofinite, non-cocompact, torsion-free group $\Gamma$ of orientation-preserving Riemannian isometries on S, we develop a cohomological interpretation for the…
M. Goresky, G. Harder, and R. MacPherson defined weighted cohomologies of arithmetic groups \Gamma in a real group G, with coefficients in certain local systems, associated to arbitrary upper and lower weight profiles. The author shows,…
Let $\Gamma$ be a fuchsian subgroup of \pslr. In this paper we consider the $\Gamma$-equivariant form of the Berezin's quantization of the upper half plane which will correspond to a deformation quantization of the (singular) space $\Bbb…
We construct a geometric model for the mapping class group M of a non-exceptional oriented surface of finite type and use it to show that the action of M on the compact Hausdorff space of complete geodesic laminations is topologically…
Let $U_1, U_2$ be connected commutative unipotent algebraic groups defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$ and let $\mathcal{L}$ be a bimultiplicative $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}_\ell$-local system on $U_1\times…
Let $\Gamma$ be a finitely generated discrete group acting properly and cocompactly on a smooth manifold M. By employing heat-kernel techniques we prove a geometric formula for the pairing of the index class associated to a…
Let $\Gamma$ be the mapping class group of an oriented surface $\Sigma$ of genus g with r boundary components. We prove that the first cohomology group $H^1(\Gamma, O(M_{SL(2, C)})^*)$ is non-trivial, where the coefficient module is the…
This paper is on $\Gamma$-convergence for degenerate integral functionals related to homogenisation problems in the Heisenberg group. Here both the rescaling and the notion of invariance or periodicity are chosen in a way motivated by the…
