Paper adapts Getzler's grading technique for new applications.

Localizes Wodzicki residue for logarithm of differential operators.

Let $M$ be a compact oriented $d$-dimensional smooth manifold and $X$ a topological space. Chas and Sullivan \cite{Chas-Sullivan:stringtop} have defined a structure of Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra on $\mathbb{H}_*(LM):=H_{*+d}(LM)$. Getzler \cite{Getzler:BVAlg} has defined a structure of Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra on the…

This work explores symplectic structures on graded manifolds and higher Lie groupoids.

We consider the problem of integration of L_\infty-algebroids (differential graded manifolds) to L_\infty-groupoids. We first construct a "big" Kan simplicial manifold (Fréchet or Banach) whose points are solutions of a (generalized) Maurer-Cartan equation. The main analytic trick in our work is an integral transformat…

We introduce the notion of a {\vartheta}-summable Fredholm module over a locally convex dg algebra Ω and construct its Chern character as a cocycle on the entire cyclic complex of Ω, extending the construction of Jaffe, Lesniewski and Osterwalder to a differential graded setting. Using this Chern character, we prove an…

Calculates spinor heat flow using Gaussian-Grassmann integrals.

Researchers compute a residue cocycle for Dirac-type operators using modified Getzler calculus.

The purpose of this article is to study Ezra Getzler's approach to the Atiyah-Singer index theorem from the perspective of Alain Connes' tangent groupoid. We shall construct a "rescaled" spinor bundle on the tangent groupoid, define a convolution operation on its smooth, compactly supported sections, and explain how th…

In this paper we give a construction of Fedosov quantization incorporating the odd variables and an analogous formula to Getzler's pseudodifferential calculus composition formula is obtained. A Fedosov type connection is constructed on the bundle of Weyl tensor Clifford algebras over the cotangent bundle of a Riemannia…

The classical Getzler rescaling theorem is extended to the transverse geometry of foliations. More precisely, a Getzler rescaling calculus, as well as a Block-Fox calculus of asymptotic operators, is constructed for all transversely spin foliations. This calculus applies to operators of degree $m$ globally times degree…

In this paper we extend to the difference case the notion of Poisson-Lichnerowicz cohomology, an object encapsulating the building blocks for the theory of deformations of Hamiltonian operators. A local scalar difference Hamiltonian operator is a polynomial in the shift operator and its inverse, with coefficients in th…

In this paper we present the construction of explicit quasi-isomorphisms that compute the cyclic homology and periodic cyclic homology of crossed-product algebras associated with (discrete) group actions. In the first part we deal with algebraic crossed-products associated with group actions on unital algebras over any…

We prove a local index theorem of Atiyah-Singer type for Dirac operators on manifolds with a Lie structure at infinity (Lie manifolds for short). With the help of a renormalized supertrace, defined on a suitable class of regularizing operators, the proof of the index theorem relies on a rescaling technique similar in s…

We generalize the transgression formula for the eta form of Bismut, Cheeger and Berline, Getzler, Vergne for vertical Dirac operators on a fibre bundle with odd dimensional fibres where the Dirac operators have locally at most one eigenvalue of multiplicity one crossing zero transversally.

We introduce a new kind of groupoid--a pseudo étale groupoid, which provides many interesting examples of noncommutative Poisson algebras as defined by Block, Getzler, and Xu. Following the idea that symplectic and Poisson geometries are the semiclassical limits of the corresponding quantum geometries, we quantize thes…

First, we review the notion of a Poisson structure on a noncommutative algebra due to Block-Getzler and Xu and introduce a notion of a Hamiltonian vector field on a noncommutative Poisson algebra. Then we describe a Poisson structure on a noncommutative algebra associated with a transversely symplectic foliation and co…

After a review of several methods designed to produce equivariant cohomology classes, we apply one introduced by Berline, Getzler and Vergne, to get a family of representatives of the universal Thom class of a vector bundle. Surprisingly, this family does not contain the representative given by Mathaï and Quillen. Howe…

From an operad C with an action of a group G, we construct new operads using the homotopy fixed point and orbit spectra. These new operads are shown to be equivalent when the generalized G-Tate cohomology of C is trivial. Applying this theory to the little disk operad C_2 (which is an S^1 operad) we obtain variations o…

We give a new short proof of the index formula of Atiyah and Singer based on combining Getzler's rescaling with Greiner's approach of the heat kernel asymptotics. As application we can easily compute the Connes-Moscovici cyclic cocycle of even and odd Dirac spectral triples, and then recover the Atiyah-Singer index for…

Constructs equivariant cohomology models for differentiable stacks.

Given an n-term L-infinity algebra L, we construct a Kan simplicial manifold which we think of as the 'Lie n-group' integrating L. This extends work of Getzler math.AT/0404003 . In the case of an ordinary Lie algebra, our construction gives the simplicial classifying space of the corresponding simply connect Lie group.…

Constructive approach to Lie algebra gradings, computing maximal and enumerating all gradings.

The geometry of graded principal bundles is discussed in the framework of graded manifold theory of Kostant-Berezin-Leites. In particular, we prove that a graded principal bundle is globally trivial if and only if it admits a global graded section and, further, that the sheaf of vertical derivations on such a bundle co…

We show that any degree at least $g$ polynomial in descendant or tautological classes vanishes on $M_{g,n}$ when $g\ge 2$. This generalizes a result of Looijenga and proves a version of Getzler's conjecture. The method we use is the study of the relative Gromov-Witten invariants of $P^1$ relative 2 points combined with…

Three definitions of graded vector bundles are shown to be equivalent.

Three new types of graded Lie groups are constructed and analyzed.

In this paper we discuss the question of integrating differential graded Lie algebras (DGLA) to differential graded Lie groups (DGLG). We first recall the classical problem of integration in the context, and present the construction for (non-graded) differential Lie algebras. Then, we define the category of differentia…

We review the concept of a graded bundle as a natural generalisation of a vector bundle. Such geometries are particularly nice examples of more general graded manifolds. With hindsight there are many examples of graded bundles that appear in the existing literature. We start with a discussion of graded spaces, passing …

We generalize some of the results of Harvey, Lawson and Latschev about transgression formulas. The focus here is on flowing forms via vertical vector fields, especially Morse-Bott-Smale vector fields. We prove a very general transgression formula including also a version covering non-compact situations. Among applicati…

This paper develops a theory of graded manifolds in differential geometry.

In this paper, we prove that infinitesimal equivariant Chern-Connes characters are well-defined. We decompose an equivariant index as a pairing of infinitesimal equivariant Chern-Connes characters with the Chern character of an idempotent matrix. We compute the limit of infinitesimal equivariant Chern- Connes character…

Graded Transformers embed algebraic structure in neural networks through graded transformations.

Combines generalized and graded geometry to explore new structures.

Getzler-Jones-Petrack introduced $A_\infty$ structures on the equivariant complex for manifold $M$ with smooth $\mathbb{S}^1$ action, motivated by geometry of loop spaces. Applying Witten's deformation by Morse functions followed by homological perturbation we obtained a new set of $A_\infty$ structures. We extend and …

This paper aims at setting out the basics of $\mathbb{Z}$-graded manifolds theory. We introduce $\mathbb{Z}$-graded manifolds from local models and give some of their properties. The requirement to work with a completed graded symmetric algebra to define functions is made clear. Moreover, we define vector fields and ex…

Let X be a topological space. The homology of the iterated loop space $H_*Ω^n X$ is an algebra over the homology of the framed n-disks operad $H_*f\mathcal{D}_n$ \cite{Getzler:BVAlg,Salvatore-Wahl:FrameddoBVa}. We determine completely this $H_*f\mathcal{D}_n$-algebra structure on $H_*(Ω^n X;\mathbb{Q})$. We show that t…

The paper examines smoothness in graded skew Clifford algebras.

The paper defines Z-graded hom-Lie superalgebras and explores their properties.

In this paper, we construct a canonical grading on bordered Heegaard Floer homology by homotopy classes of nonvanishing vector fields. This grading is a generalization of our construction of an absolute grading on Heegaard Floer homology and it extends the well-known grading with values in a noncommutative group define…

Characterizes fundamental groups of disjointly tree-graded spaces.

A pseudo $H$-type Lie algebra naturally gives rise to a conformal pseudo-subriemannian fundamental graded Lie algebras. In this paper we investigate the prolongations of the associated fundamental graded Lie algebra and the associated conformal pseudo-subriemannian fundamental graded Lie algebra. In particular, we show…

Given a unital associatve graded algebra we construct the graded q-differential algebra by means of a graded q-commutator, where q is a primitive N-th root of unity. The N-th power (N>1) of the differential of this graded q-differential algebra is equal to zero. We use our approach to construct the graded q-differentia…

In this paper we first state the classification of the prolongations of complex free fundamental graded Lie algebras. Next we introduce the notion of free pseudo-product fundamental graded Lie algebras and study the prolongations of complex free pseudo-product fundamental graded Lie algebras. Furthermore we investigate…

Extends manifold theory to $\mathcal{I}$-graded manifolds.

The paper investigates gradings of complex simple Lie algebras, focusing on $|3|$-gradings and their algebraic structures.

We analyze a functor from cyclic operads to chain complexes first considered by Getzler and Kapranov and also Markl. This functor is a generalization of the graph homology considered by Kontsevich, which was defined for the three operads Comm, Assoc, and Lie. More specifically we show that these chain complexes have a …
