Direct proof for Duflo isomorphism for arbitrary Lie algebras.

We explain how the distributional index of a transversally elliptic operator on a principal G-manifold P that is obtained by lifting a Dirac operator on P/G can serve as a link between the Duflo isomorphism and Chern-Weil forms.

Let G be a connected Lie group with Lie algebra g. The Duflo map is a vector space isomorphism between the symmetric algebra S(g) and the universal enveloping algebra U(g) which, as proved by Duflo, restricts to a ring isomorphism from invariant polynomials onto the center of the universal enveloping algebra. The Duflo…

In 1979, M. Kashiwara and M. Vergne formulated a conjecture on a Lie group G which implies that the Duflo isomorphism of Z(g) and S(g)^g extends to a natural module isomorphism between the spaces of germs of invariant distributions on G and g=Lie(G), respectively. They also proved their conjecture for G solvable. Using…

We construct and prove a diagrammatic version of the Duflo isomorphism between the invariant subalgebra of the symmetric algebra of a Lie algebra and the center of the universal enveloping algebra. This version implies the original for metrized Lie algebras (Lie algebras with an invariant non-degenerate bilinear form).…

Let $G$ be a compact connected Lie group equipped with a bi-invariant metric. We calculate the asymptotic expansion of the heat kernel of the laplacian on $G$ and the heat trace using Lie algebra methods. The Duflo isomorphism plays a key role.

Given a Lie algebra with a scalar product, one may consider the latter as a symplectic structure on a $dg$-scheme, which is the spectrum of the Chevalley--Eilenberg algebra. In the first section we explicitly calculate the first order deformation of the differential on the Hochschild complex of the Chevalley--Eilenberg…

We propose the notion of a supercategory as an alternative approach to supermathematics. We show that this setting is rich to carry out many of the basic constructions of supermathematics. We also prove generalizations of a number of results in equivariant cohomology, including the Chern-Weil theorem for an arbitrary r…

Chernozhukov, Chetverikov, Demirer, Duflo, Hansen, and Newey (2016) provide a generic double/de-biased machine learning (DML) approach for obtaining valid inferential statements about focal parameters, using Neyman-orthogonal scores and cross-fitting, in settings where nuisance parameters are estimated using a new gene…

Ideas of Rozansky and Witten, as developed by Kapranov, show that a complex symplectic manifold X gives rise to Vassiliev weight systems. In this paper we study these weight systems by using D(X), the derived category of coherent sheaves on X. The main idea (stated here a little imprecisely) is that D(X) is the categor…

We study Kontsevich's deformation quantization for the dual of a finite-dimensional real Lie algebra (or superalgebra) g. In this case the Kontsevich star-product defines a new convolution on S(g), regarded as the space of distributions supported at 0 in g. For p in S(g), we show that the convolution operator f->f*p is…

Atiyah classes of DG manifolds of positive amplitude are invariant under weak equivalences.

Let $G$ be a connected, linear, real reductive Lie group with compact centre. Let $K<G$ be compact. Under a condition on $K$, which holds in particular if $K$ is maximal compact, we give a geometric expression for the multiplicities of the $K$-types of any tempered representation (in fact, any standard representation) …

Using elementary equalities between various cables of the unknot and the Hopf link, we prove the Wheels and Wheeling conjectures of [Bar-Natan, Garoufalidis, Rozansky and Thurston, arXiv:q-alg/9703025] and [Deligne, letter to Bar-Natan, January 1996, http://www.ma.huji.ac.il/~drorbn/Deligne/], which give, respectively,…

New knot quandles distinguish ribbon knots with isomorphic groups.

Geometric duality connects graph isomorphism and knot equivalence.

In this paper, we introduce the notion of Reidemeister torsion for quasi-isomorphisms of based chain complexes over a field. We call a chain map a quasi-isomorphism if its induced homomorphism between homology is an isomorphism. Our notion of torsion generalizes the torsion of acyclic based chain complexes, and is a ch…

The paper explores isomorphisms on isoparametric hypersurfaces in spheres, leading to new geometric structures.

We construct examples of knots that have isomorphic nth-order Alexander modules, but non-isomorphic nth-order linking forms, showing that the linking forms provide more information than the modules alone. This generalizes work of Trotter, who found examples of knots that have isomorphic classical Alexander modules, but…

Proves regularity of isomorphisms between hyperbolic 3-manifolds.

We classify connected Lie groups which are locally isomorphic to generalized Heisenberg groups. For a given generalized Heisenberg group $N$, there is a one-to-one correspondence between the set of isomorphism classes of connected Lie groups which are locally isomorphic to $N$ and a union of certain quotients of noncom…

New benchmarks improve model performance by accounting for isomorphism classes in multi-relational datasets.

We consider the notion of stable isomorphism of bundle gerbes. It has the consequence that the stable isomorphism classes of bundle gerbes over a manifold M are in bijective correspondence with H^3(M, Z). Stable isomorphism sheds light on the local theory of bundle gerbes and enables us to develop a classifying theory …

This is the fourth of five papers that construct an isomorphism between the Seiberg-Witten Floer homology and the Heegaard Floer homology of a given compact, oriented 3-manifold. The isomorphism is given as a composition of three isomorphisms; the first of these relates a version of embedded contact homology on an an a…

Undecidability proved for DG algebras problems.

A subgroup of a Kac-Moody group is called bounded if it is contained in the intersection of two finite type parabolic subgroups of opposite signs. In this paper, we study the isomorphisms between Kac-Moody groups over arbitrary fields of cardinality at least 4, which preserve the set of bounded subgroups. We show that …

The paper disproves a conjecture about isomorphic subgroups in finite groups.

Jet isomorphism theorems for conformal geometry are discussed. A new proof of the jet isomorphism theorem for odd-dimensional conformal geometry is outlined, using an ambient realization of the conformal deformation complex. An infinite order ambient lift for conformal densities in the case in which harmonic extension …

If M is a riemannian manifold, then the inclusion of the complex of coclosed harmonic forms into the de Rham complex induces a linear isomorphism in cohomology. If M has at most countably many connected components, this linear isomorphism is a Frechet isomorphism.

Projective manifolds with specific bundles are isomorphic to simpler spaces.

We give the classification of solvable and splitting Lie triple system and it turn that, up to isomorphism there exist 7 non isomorphic canonical Lie triple systems and 6 non isomorphic splitting canonical Lie triple systems and find the solvable Lie algebras associated.

In this project we further investigate the idea of reducing the dimensionality of datasets using a Borel isomorphism with the purpose of subsequently applying supervised learning algorithms, as originally suggested by my supervisor V. Pestov (in 2011 Dagstuhl preprint). Any consistent learning algorithm, for example kN…
