An odd-dimensional differentiable manifold is called \emph{holomorphically fillable} if it is diffeomorphic to the boundary of a compact strongly pseudoconvex complex manifold, \emph{Stein fillable} if this last manifold may be chosen to be…

This paper introduces a notion of differential forms on closed, potentially fractal, subsets of Euclidean space by defining pointwise cotangent spaces using the restriction of $C^1$ functions to this set. Aspects of cohomology are…

In this paper, we compute the singular cohomology groups $H^*(C_2(M);\mathbb{F}_2)$ of the ordered 2-configuration space $C_2(M)$ as $\Sigma_2$-representations. Using the result, we determine the mod 2 cohomology of the unordered…

We consider 3-dimensional hyperbolic cone-manifolds, singular along infinite lines, which are ``convex co-compact'' in a natural sense. We prove an infinitesimal rigidity statement when the angle around the singular lines is less than…

This work further develops the properties of fractional differential forms. In particular, finite dimensional subspaces of fractional form spaces are considered. An inner product, Hodge dual, and covariant derivative are defined. Coordinate…

We define a new algebra of noncommutative differential forms for any Hopf algebra with an invertible antipode. We prove that there is a one to one correspondence between anti-Yetter-Drinfeld modules, which serve as coefficients for the Hopf…

We show that every skew-symmetric 6 x 6 matrix of linear forms with vanishing Pfaffian is congruent to one of finitely many types of matrices, each of which is characterised by a specific pattern of zeroes (and some other linear relations)…

This paper continues our study of the sheaf associated to K\"ahler differentials in the cdh-topology and its cousins, in positive characteristic, without assuming resolution of singularities. The picture for the sheaves themselves is now…

We study a closed differential form on the symmetric space of positive definite matrices, which is defined using the Pfaffian and is $\mathsf{GL}_{2n}(\mathbb{Z})$ invariant up to a sign. It gives rise to an infinite family of unstable…

We present a framework for the computation of the Hopf 2-cocycles involved in the deformations of Nichols algebras over semisimple Hopf algebras. We write down a recurrence formula and investigate the extent of the connection with invariant…

The singular set of a generic map $f: M\to F$ of a manifold $M$ of dimension $m\ge 2$ to an oriented surface $F$ is a closed smooth curve $\Sigma(f)$. We study the parity of the number of components of $\Sigma(f)$. The image $f(\Sigma)$ of…

Given a compact surface $M$, consider the natural right action of the group of diffeomorphisms $\mathcal{D}(M)$ of $M$ on $\mathcal{C}^{\infty}(M,\mathbb{R})$ defined by the rule: $(f,h)\mapsto f\circ h$ for $f\in…

The purpose of this note is to provide yet another example of the link between certain conformal geometries and ordinary differential equations, along the lines of the examples discussed by Nurowski in math.DG/0406400. In this particular…

A piecewise constant curvature manifold is a triangulated manifold that is assigned a geometry by specifying lengths of edges and stipulating that for a chosen background geometry (Euclidean, hyperbolic, or spherical), each simplex has an…

In the authors's previous work on symmetric differentials and their connection to the topological properties of the ambient manifold, a class of symmetric differentials was introduced: closed symmetric differentials ([BoDeO11] and…

Generalized Heisenberg algebras $\H(f)$ for any polynomial $f(h)\in\C[h]$ have been used to explain various physical systems and many physical phenomena for the last 20 years. In this paper, we first obtain the center of $\H(f)$, and the…

First we survey and explain the strategy of some recent results that construct holomorphic $\text{sl}(2, \mathbb C)$-differential systems over some Riemann surfaces $\Sigma_g$ of genus $g\geq 2$, satisfying the condition that the image of…

This paper is the continuation of arXiv:0802.1245. We construct the Hochschild class for coherent modules over a deformation quantization algebroid on a complex Poisson manifold. We also define the convolution of Hochschild homologies, and…

The conformal index counts the number of exactly marginal deformations. In 4d the index is given by the number of chiral primary operators of dimension 3 moded out by the complexified global group, where the quotient is defined as usual by…

Let M be a compact Riemannian manifold equipped with a parallel differential form \omega. We prove a version of Kaehler identities in this setting. This is used to show that the de Rham algebra of M is weakly equivalent to its subquotient…
