Geometric model for Hodge filtered complex cobordism constructed.

We construct Hodge filtered function spaces associated to infinite loop spaces. For Brown-Peterson cohomology, we show that the corresponding Hodge filtered spaces satisfy an analog of Wilson's unstable splitting. As a consequence, we obtain an analog of Quillen's theorem for Hodge filtered Brown-Peterson cohomology fo…

We construct Hodge filtered cohomology groups for complex manifolds that combine the topological information of generalized cohomology theories with geometric data of Hodge filtered holomorphic forms. This theory provides a natural generalization of Deligne cohomology. For smooth complex algebraic varieties, we show th…

Paper introduces signal processing on cell complexes.

In this article, we reformulate the cobordism map of embedded contact homology, which is induced by exact symplectic cobordism and defined as direct limit of homomorphisms called filtered ECH cobordism map. The filtered ECH cobordism map is defined by counting embedded holomorphic curves with zero ECH index and we prov…

Study shows Khovanov homology's relation to decomposable Lagrangian cobordisms.

Defines cobordism maps connecting Khovanov and instanton homologies.

Novel algorithm learns sparse signal representations over topological spaces.

We use topological methods to prove a semicontinuity property of the Hodge spectra for analytic germs defined on an isolated surface singularity. For this we introduce an analogue of the Seifert matrix (the fractured Seifert matrix), and of the Levine--Tristram signatures associated with it, defined for null-homologous…

GRID invariants block certain Lagrangian cobordisms in 3D.

We prove that the Khovanov-Lee complex of an oriented link, L, in a thickened annulus, A x I, has the structure of a bifiltered complex whose filtered chain homotopy type is an invariant of the isotopy class of L in A x I. Using ideas of Ozsvath-Stipsicz-Szabo as reinterpreted by Livingston, we use this structure to de…

We introduce filtered cohomologies of differential forms on symplectic manifolds. They generalize and include the cohomologies discussed in Paper I and II as a subset. The filtered cohomologies are finite-dimensional and can be associated with differential elliptic complexes. Algebraically, we show that the filtered co…

New subgroup found in knot homology concordance group.

The study extends cobordism theory to complex sections, defining and calculating cobordism groups.

We introduce the notion of a Khovanov-Floer theory. Roughly, such a theory assigns a filtered chain complex over Z/2 to a link diagram such that (1) the E_2 page of the resulting spectral sequence is naturally isomorphic to the Khovanov homology of the link; (2) this filtered complex behaves nicely under planar isotopy…

Study on Hodge theory for almost complex manifolds.

A homological invariant of 3-manifolds is defined, using abelian Yang-Mills gauge theory. It is shown that the construction, in an appropriate sense, is functorial with respect to the families of 4-dimensional cobordisms. This construction and its functoriality are used to define several link invariants. The strongest …

Study $h$-cobordisms of complexity 2 in 5D, finding obstructions and examples.

We explain the notion of a grope cobordism between two knots in a 3-manifold. Each grope cobordism has a type that can be described by a rooted unitrivalent tree. By filtering these trees in different ways, we show how the Goussarov-Habiro approach to finite type invariants of knots is closely related to our notion of …

New conditions prevent non-trivial relations in local equivalence group.

For any $s \in [-\infty, 0]$ and oriented homology 3-sphere $Y$, we introduce a homology cobordism invariant $r_s(Y)\in (0,\infty]$. The values $\{r_s(Y)\}$ are included in the critical values of the $SU(2)$-Chern-Simons functional of $Y$, and we show a negative definite cobordism inequality and a connected sum formul…

Study Hodge-de Rham numbers for almost complex 4-manifolds, extending properties from complex surfaces.

We show that the theory of stable complex $G$-cobordisms, for a torus $G$, is embedded into the theory of stable complex $G$-cobordisms of not necessarily compact manifolds equipped with proper abstract moment maps. Thus the introduction of such non-compact cobordisms in the stable complex $G$-cobordism theory does not…

We compute the knot Floer filtration induced by a cable of the meridian of a knot in the manifold obtained by large integer surgery along the knot. We give a formula in terms of the original knot Floer complex of the knot in the three-sphere. As an application, we show that a knot concordance invariant of Hom can equiv…

Calculates cobordism ring of stably almost complex C_p-manifolds.

The paper finds diffeomorphic complex intersections with distinct Hodge numbers.

We give hodge structures on quasitoric orbifolds. We define orbifold hodge numbers and show a correspondence of orbifold hodge numbers for crepant resolutions of quasitoric orbifolds. In short we extend hodge structures to a non complex setting .

The paper establishes a correspondence between Higgs torsors and connections on curves.

Study shows $S^1$ algebraic structure in 2-dimensional CW-complex cobordisms.

Efficiently sparsifies simplicial complexes using local densities of states.

New cobordisms found between certain quasipositive knots.

For any positive integer m and any dimension n, we show that any n-dimensional Hodge diamond with values in Z/mZ is attained by the Hodge numbers of an n-dimensional smooth complex projective variety. As a corollary, there are no polynomial relations among the Hodge numbers of n-dimensional smooth complex projective va…

We give a simple and explicit presentation of the Z/2-equivariant complex cobordism ring.

Proposes a probabilistic framework for stationary topological signals on simplicial complexes.

The h-cobordism theorem is a noted theorem in differential and PL topology. A generalization of the h-cobordism theorem for possibly non simply connected manifolds is the so called s-cobordism theorem. In this paper, we prove semialgebraic and Nash versions of these theorems. That is, starting with semialgebraic or Nas…

This paper generalizes L2 cohomology theory for complex manifolds.

Proves the Hodge conjecture for complex projective manifolds.

A generalized complex manifold which satisfies the $\partial \overline{\partial}$-lemma admits a Hodge decomposition in twisted cohomology. Using a Courant algebroid theoretic approach we study the behavior of the Hodge decomposition in smooth and holomorphic families of generalized complex manifolds. In particular we …

Explains Hodge theory and Kodaira embedding theorem for complex manifolds.

Proves Hodge structures on modular functors, providing formulas for Hodge numbers.

A geometric characterization of the Arf invariant of a knot in the 3-sphere is given in terms of two kinds of 4-dimensional bordisms, half-gropes and Whitney towers. These types of bordisms have associated complexities class and order which filter the condition of bordism by an embedded annulus, i.e. knot concordance, …

Study on existence of balanced metrics on non-Kähler manifolds.

Hodge theory applied to tropical curves.

We determine the structure of the Hodge ring, a natural object encoding the Hodge numbers of all compact Kaehler manifolds. As a consequence of this structure, there are no unexpected relations among the Hodge numbers, and no essential differences between the Hodge numbers of smooth complex projective varieties and tho…
