The paper explores de Rham theory for singular spaces and stacks.

There are two de Rham complexes in diffeology. The original one is due to Souriau and the other one is the singular de Rham complex defined by a simplicial differential graded algebra. We compare the first de Rham cohomology groups of the two complexes within the Čech--de Rham spectral sequence by making use of the {\i…

New Lipschitz de Rham theorem for $L_p$-cohomology.

Study of de Rham cohomology on non-Hausdorff manifolds.

The chiral de Rham complex of Malikov, Schechtman, and Vaintrob, is a sheaf of differential graded vertex algebras that exists on any smooth manifold $Z$, and contains the ordinary de Rham complex at weight zero. Given a closed 3-form $H$ on $Z$, we construct the twisted chiral de Rham differential $D_H$, which coincid…

Paper introduces a new multilinear functional for spectral triples and computes its properties.

A classical result in differential geometry states that for a free and proper Lie group action, the quotient map to the orbit space induces an isomorphism between the de Rham complex of differential forms on the orbit space and the basic differential forms on the original manifold. In this paper, this result is general…

The primitive cohomology of Calabi-Yau intersections is described using a twisted de Rham complex.

The Hodge-de Rham Theorem is introduced and discussed. This result has implications for the general study of several partial differential equations. Some propositions which have applications to the proof of this theorem are used to study some related results concerning a class of partial differential equation in a nove…

Generalizes integration map to coinvariants of bounded functions.

We introduce the notion of a conformal de Rham complex of a Riemannian manifold. This is a graded differential Banach algebra and it is invariant under quasiconformal maps, in particular the associated cohomology is a new quasiconformal invariant.

We define quantum exterior product wedge_h and quantum exterior differential d_h on Poisson manifolds (of which symplectic manifolds are an important class of examples). Quantum de Rham cohomology, which is a deformation quantization of de Rham cohomology, is defined as the cohomology of d_h. We also define quantum Dol…

Let G be a general (not necessarily finite dimensional compact) Lie group, let g be its Lie algebra, let Cg be the cone on g in the category of differential graded Lie algebras, and consider the functor which assigns to a chain complex V the V-valued total de Rham complex of G. We describe the G-equivariant de Rham coh…

We characterize Lie group actions for which there exists, at least locally, an evaluation map that defines a cochain map from the differential complex of invariant forms on a manifold to the De Rham complex for the quotient.

This paper extends T-duality to exotic chiral de Rham complexes.

We define quantum exterior product wedge_h and quantum exterior differential d_h on Poisson manifolds, of which symplectic manifolds are an important class of examples. Quantum de Rham cohomology is defined as the cohomology of d_h. We also define quantum Dolbeault cohomology. Quantum hard Lefschetz theorem is proved. …

Let M be a hypercomplex Hermitian manifold, (M,I) the same manifold considered as a complex Hermitian with a complex structure I induced by the quaternions. The standard linear-algebraic construction produces a canonical nowhere degenerate (2,0)-form on (M,I). It is well known that M is hyperkaehler if and only if the …

The paper extends Hodge-de Rham theory to higher-dimensional Sierpinski gaskets.

We consider the notion of the De Rham operator on finite-dimensional diffeological spaces such that the diffeological counterpart Λ^1(X) of the cotangent bundle, the so-called pseudo-bundle of values of differential 1-forms, has bounded dimension. The operator is defined as the composition of the Levi-Civita connection…

We identify two Frobenius manifolds obtained from two different differential Gerstenhaber-Batalin-Vilkovisky algebras on a compact Kaehler manifold. One is constructed on the Dolbeault cohomology, and the other on the de Rham cohomology. Our result can be considered as a generalization of the identification of the Dolb…

The theory of differential characters is developed completely from a de Rham - Federer viewpoint. Characters are defined as equivalence classes of special currents, called sparks, which appear naturally in the theory of singular connections. There are many different spaces of currents which yield the character groups. …

The paper extends Hodge-de Rham and Lichnérowicz Laplacians to double forms and proves vanishing theorems.

The paper studies the Poisson transform of differential forms on hyperbolic spaces.

Associated to a differential character is an integral cohomology class, referred to as the characteristic class, and a closed differential form, referred to as the curvature. The characteristic class and curvature are equal in de Rham cohomology, and this is encoded in a commutative square. In the Hopkins--Singer model…

A measured solenoid is a compact laminated space endowed with a transversal measure. The De Rham $L^2$-cohomology of the solenoid is defined by using differential forms which are smooth in the leafwise directions and $L^2$ in the transversal direction. We develop the theory of harmonic forms for Riemannian measured sol…

We introduce the notions of a differentiable groupoid and a differentiable stratified groupoid, generalizations of Lie groupoids in which the spaces of objects and arrows have the structures of differentiable spaces, respectively differentiable stratified spaces, compatible with the groupoid structure. After studying b…

Recent years have witnessed a trend that advanced mathematical tools, such as algebraic topology, differential geometry, graph theory, and partial differential equations, have been developed for describing biological macromolecules. These tools have considerably strengthened our ability to understand the molecular mech…

As is well-known, the Witten deformation of the De Rham complex computes the De Rham cohomology. In this paper we study the Witten deformation on a noncompact manifold and restrict it to differential forms which behave polynomially near infinity. Such polynomial differential forms naturally appear on manifolds with a c…

The paper proves formulas and theorems for statistical de Rham Hodge operators on manifolds with boundary.

We are interested in the spectrum of the Hodge-de Rham operator on a cyclic covering $X$ over a compact manifold $M$ of dimension $n+1$. Let $Σ$ be a hypersurface in $M$ which does not disconnect $M$ and such that $M-Σ$ is a fundamental domain of the covering. If the cohomology group $H^{n/2 (Σ)$ is trivial, we can con…

The paper studies perturbations of de Rham Hodge operators on manifolds with or without boundaries.

We prove an analogue of the de Rham theorem for the extended L^2-cohomology introduced by M. Farber. This is done by establishing that the de Rham complex over a compact closed manifold with coefficients in a flat Hilbert bundle E of A-modules over a finite von Neumann algebra A is chain-homotopy equivalent (with bound…

Graph theory connects automorphisms to cohomology.

The aim of this paper is to define a chain level refinement of the Batalin-Vilkovisky (BV) algebra structure on the homology of the free loop space of a closed, oriented $C^\infty$-manifold. For this purpose, we define a (nonsymmetric) cyclic dg operad which consists of "de Rham chains" of free loops with marked points…
