"V - E + F = 2", the famous Euler's polyhedral formula, has a natural generalization to convex polytopes in every finite dimension, also known as the Euler-Poincar\'e Formula. We provide another short inductive proof of the general formula.…

We show that Banyaga's Hofer-like norm, a generalization of the Hofer norm coincides with the classical Hofer norm when restricted to Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms on compact symplectic manifolds. This result proves a conjecture of Banyaga…

This note provides an affirmative answer to a question of Viterbo concerning the existence of nondiffeomorphic contact forms that share the same Reeb vector field. Starting from an observation by Croke-Kleiner and Abbondandolo that such…

In previous work, starting from the Moyal plane, we formulated interacting theories of matter and gauge fields with only the former fields twisted. In this approach, gauge theories, including the standard model, can be formulated without…

Let $X$ be a projective algebraic $d$-variety endowed with isolated determinantal singularities, and let $\omega$ be a $1$-form on $X$ exhibiting a finite number of singularities (in the stratified sense). Under some technical conditions,…

The apparatus of motivic stable homotopy theory provides a notion of Euler characteristic for smooth projective varieties, valued in the Grothendieck-Witt ring of the base field. Previous work of the first author and recent work of…

We prove a prototype curvature theorem for subgraphs G of the flat triangular tesselation which play the analogue of "domains" in two dimensional Euclidean space: The Pusieux curvature K(p) = 2|S1(p)| - |S2(p)| is equal to 12 times the…

A 1930s conjecture of Hopf states that an even-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold with positive sectional curvature has positive Euler characteristic. We prove this conjecture under the additional assumption that the isometry group has…

Let G be a locally compact group, let X be a universal proper G-space, and let Z be a G-equivariant compactification of X that is H-equivariantly contractible for each compact subgroup H of G. Let W be the resulting boundary. Assuming the…

For two complex vector bundles admitting a homomorphism between them, a Poincar\'e-Hopf formula for the difference of the Chern character numbers of these two vector bundles with isolated singularities is established by Huitao Feng, Weiping…

In this article, we pursue two main objectives. The first is to show that the fundamental results of Green-Lazarsfeld (1987, 1991) on generic vanishing theorems, and works of Budur-Wang (2015, 2020) on cohomology jumping loci, can be…

In an earlier paper (math.SG/0101206), we introduced Floer homology theories associated to closed, oriented three-manifolds Y and SpinC structures. In the present paper, we give calculations and study the properties of these invariants. The…

This paper defines two new extrinsic curvature quantities on the corner of a four-dimensional Riemannian manifold with corner. One of these is a pointwise conformal invariant, and the conformal transformation of the other is governed by a…

Under suitable conditions, we show that the Euler characteristic of a foliated Riemannian manifold can be computed only from curvature invariants which are transverse to the leaves. Our proof uses the hypoelliptic sub-Laplacian on forms…

We study a natural Hodge theoretic generalization of rational (or $\mathbb{Q}$-)homology manifolds through an invariant ${\rm HRH(Z)}$ where $Z$ is a complex algebraic variety. The defining property of this notion encodes the difference…

The Gauss-Bonnet curvature of order $2k$ is a generalization to higher dimensions of the Gauss-Bonnet integrand in dimension $2k$, as the usual scalar curvature generalizes the two dimensional Gauss-Bonnet integrand. In this paper, we…

We prove the (generalized) coherence conjecture of Pappas and Rapoport. As a corollary, one theorem of Pappas an Rapoport, which describes the geometry of the special fibers of the local models for ramified unitary groups, holds…

The Hopf conjecture states that an even-dimensional, positively curved Riemannian manifold has positive Euler characteristic. We prove this conjecture under the additional assumption that a torus acts by isometries and has dimension bounded…

Hopf conjectured that even-dimensional closed Riemannian manifolds with positive sectional curvature have positive Euler characteristic. The conclusion of the conjecture is known to fail if the positive sectional curvature assumption is…

We define singular points of the first kind and singular points of the second kind as singular points of mappings between surfaces. Typical examples of these singular points are fold singular points and cusp singular points, respectively.…
