We give a new proof - not using resolution of singularities - of a formula of Denef and the second author expressing the Lefschetz number of iterates of the monodromy of a function on a smooth complex algebraic variety in terms of the Euler…
The purpose of this paper is to show that the monodromy of action variables of the Lagrange top and its generalizations can be deduced from the monodromy of cycles on a suitable hyperelliptic curve (computed by the Picard-Lefschetz…
While not obvious from its initial motivation in linear algebra, there are many context where iterated traces can be defined. In this paper we prove a very general theorem about iterated 2-categorical traces. We show that many…
Symplectic four-manifolds give rise to Lefschetz fibrations, which are determined by monodromy representations of free groups in mapping class groups. We study the topology of Lefschetz fibrations by analysing the action of the monodromy on…
The reduced norm-one group G of a central simple algebra is an inner form of the special linear group, and an involution on the algebra induces an automorphism of G. We study the action of such automorphisms in the cohomology of arithmetic…
A Lefschetz formula is given that relates loops in a regular finite graph to traces of a certain representation. As an application the poles of the Ihara/Bass zeta function are expressed as dimensions of global section spaces of locally…
Using Poincare duality, we formulate a formula of Lefschetz type which computes the Lefschetz number of an endomorphism of a separable, nuclear C*-algebra satisfying Poincare duality and the Kunneth theorem. (The Lefschetz number of an…
The theory of Rees algebras of monomial ideals has been extensively studied, and as a consequence, many (sometimes partial) equivalences between algebraic properties of monomial ideals, and combinatorial properties of simplicial complexes…
We give new axioms for the Lefschetz number based on Hadwiger's characterization of the Euler characteristic as the unique lattice valuation on polyhedra which takes value 1 on simplices. In the setting of maps on abstract simplicial…
In this paper we give an explicit construction of a symplectic Lefschetz fibration whose total space is a smooth compact four dimensional manifold with a prescribed fundamental group. We also study the numerical properties of the sections…
We show that isotopy classes of simple closed curves in any oriented surface admit a quandle structure with operations induced by Dehn twists, the Dehn quandle of the surface. We further show that the monodromy of a Lefschetz fibration can…
Everyone knows that the Euler characteristic of a combinatorial manifold is given by the alternating sum of its numbers of simplices. It is shown that there are other linear combinations of the numbers of simplices which are combinatorial…
The purpose of this note is to explain a combinatorial description of closed smooth oriented 4-manifolds in terms of positive Dehn twist factorizations of surface mapping classes, and further explore these connections. This is obtained via…
In this article, we characterize isomorphism classes of Lefschetz fibrations with multisections via their monodromy factorizations. We prove that two Lefschetz fibrations with multisections are isomorphic if and only if their monodromy…
Twisted Lefschetz numbers are extensions of the ordinary Lefschetz numbers for cohomologies with values in flat bundles. As a generalization of linearization formula for the ordinary Lefschetz number of a self-map of a nilmanifold, we show…
A divide is a relative generic immersion of a finite union of copies of the unit interval in the unit disk. A divide defines a classical link in the 3- sphere, which is a fibered link if the image of the immersion is connected. We prove in…
We show that a variety of monodromy phenomena arising in geometric topology and algebraic geometry are most conveniently described in terms of quandle homomorphisms from a knot quandle associated to the base to a quandle associated to a…
The Lefschetz number and fixed point index can be thought of as two different descriptions of the same invariant. The Lefschetz number is algebraic and defined using homology. The index is defined more directly from the topology and is a…
We lift the Lefschetz number from an algebraic invariant of maps between spaces to an invariant of morphisms of data over the spaces.
The Lefschetz fixed point theorem and its converse have many generalizations. One of these generalizations is to endomorphisms of a space relative to a fixed subspace. In this paper we define relative Lefschetz numbers and Reidemeister…
