New dg-algebras link graph colorings to sheaves.

Undecidability proved for DG algebras problems.

We link Ginzburg algebras to Weinstein manifolds and Legendrian knots.

New dg-algebras generalize Brauer graph algebras, with applications to stability conditions and quadratic differentials.

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 …

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…

We construct a categorification of the maximal commutative subalgebra of the type $A$ Hecke algebra. Specifically, we propose a monoidal functor from the (symmetric) monoidal category of coherent sheaves on the flag Hilbert scheme to the (non-symmetric) monoidal category of Soergel bimodules. The adjoint of this functo…

Paper addresses hidden faces in configuration space integrals for embeddings.

This paper extends a category equivalence to an A-infinity quasi-equivalence for compact Lie groups.

Twilled L(ie-)R(inehart)-algebras generalize, in the Lie-Rinehart context, complex structures on smooth manifolds. An almost complex manifold determines an "almost twilled pre-LR algebra", which is a true twilled LR-algebra iff the almost complex structure is integrable. We characterize twilled LR structures in terms o…

A theory of dg schemes is developed so that it becomes a homotopy site, and the corresponding infinity category of stacks is equivalent to the infinity category of stacks, as constructed by Toen and Vezzosi, on the site of dg algebras whose cohomologies have finitely many generators in each degree. Stacks represented b…

Twilled L(ie)-R(inehart) algebas generalize, in the Lie-Rinehart context, complex structures on smooth manifolds. An almost complex manifold determines an almost twilled pre-LR algebra, which is a true twilled LR-algebra iff the almost complex structure is integrable. We characterize twilled LR-structures in terms of c…

We identify the Grothendieck group of the tangle Floer dg algebra with a tensor product of certain $U_q(gl(1|1))$ representations. Under this identification, up to a scalar factor, the map on the Grothendieck group induced by the tangle Floer dg bimodule associated to a tangle agrees with the Reshetikhin-Turaev homomor…

Extends Chern character to non-abelian cohomology, linking to physics.

Let A be a dg algebra over F_2 and let M be a dg A-bimodule. We show that under certain technical hypotheses on A, a noncommutative analog of the Hodge-to-de Rham spectral sequence starts at the Hochschild homology of the derived tensor product of M with itself and converges to the Hochschild homology of M. We apply th…

We give a combinatorial proof of the quasi-invertibility of $\widehat{CFDD}(\mathbb{I}_\mathcal{Z})$ in bordered Heegaard Floer homology, which implies a Koszul self-duality on the dg-algebra $\mathcal{A}(\mathcal{Z})$, for each pointed matched circle $\mathcal{Z}$. This is done by giving an explicit description of a r…

We define several homology theories for central hyperplane arrangements, categorifying well-known polynomial invariants including the characteristic polynomial, Poincare polynomial, and Tutte polynomial. We consider basic algebraic properties of such chain complexes, including long-exact sequences associated to deletio…

Let $G$ be a simply connected Lie group with Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. We show that the following categories are naturally equivalent. The category $\mathsf{Mod}(C(G))$, of sufficiently smooth modules over the DG-algebra of singular chains on $G$. The category $\mathsf{Rep}(Tg)$ of representations of the DG-Lie algeb…

The pull back of a flat bundle $E\rightarrow X$ along the evaluation map $π: \mathcal{L} X \to X$ from the free loop space $\mathcal{L} X$ to $X$ comes equipped with a canonical automorphism given by the holonomies of $E$. This construction naturally generalizes to flat $\mathbb{Z}$-graded connections on $X$. Our main …

New homological results for bordered Floer algebras derived from hypertoric categories.

Alexander polynomial derived from knot contact homology and Floer strips.

We define four versions of equivariant instanton Floer homology ($I^+, I^-, I^\infty$ and $\widetilde I$) for a class of 3-manifolds and $SO(3)$-bundles over them including all rational homology spheres. These versions are analogous to the four flavors of monopole and Heegaard Floer homology theories. This construction…

The paper develops spectral networks in symplectic topology and their relation to Lagrangian fillings.

We define the Hopf superalgebra U_T sl(1,1), which is a variant of the quantum supergroup U_q sl(1,1), and its tensor product representations V_1^{\otimes n} for n>0. We construct families of DG algebras A, B and R_n, and consider the DG categories DGP(A), DGP(B) and DGP(R_n), which are full DG subcategories of the cat…

For any Legendrian knot $K$ in standard contact ${\mathbb R}^3$ we relate counts of ungraded ($1$-graded) representations of the Legendrian contact homology DG-algebra $(\mathcal{A}(K),\partial)$ with the $n$-colored Kauffman polynomial. To do this, we introduce an ungraded $n$-colored ruling polynomial, $R^1_{n,K}(q)$…

This is the second in a series of papers laying the foundations for a differential graded approach to derived differential geometry (and other geometries in characteristic zero). In this paper, we extend the classical notion of a dg-algebra to define, in particular, the notion of a differential graded algebra in the wo…
