Develops equivariant Chern characters for coherent sheaves with group actions.

Novel threefold partitioning of $L^2$-spinor space on cone links.

Consider a compact prequantizable symplectic manifold M on which a compact Lie group G acts in a Hamiltonian fashion. The ``quantization commutes with reduction'' theorem asserts that the G-invariant part of the equivariant index of M is equal to the Riemann-Roch number of the symplectic quotient of M, provided the quo…

These notes are the first chapter of a monograph, dedicated to a detailed proof of the equivariant index theorem for transversally elliptic operators. In this preliminary chapter, we prove a certain number of natural relations in equivariant cohomology. These relations include the Thom isomorphism in equivariant cohomo…

Let $G$ be a compact connected Lie group, and $M$ a compact Hamiltonian $G$-space, with moment map $J$. For each $G$-equivariant Hermitian vector bundle $E$ over $M$, one has an associated twisted Spin-C Dirac operator, whose equivariant index is a symplectic invariant of $E$. In the present paper, we study gluing prop…

In this paper, we give a new version of the modified Futaki invariant for a test configuration associated to the soliton action on a Fano manifold. Our version will naturally come from toric test configurations defined by Donaldson for toric manifolds. As an application, we show that the modified $K$-energy is proper f…

Study index theory on Lie group homogeneous spaces using topological and analytic methods.

We study algebro-geometric consequences of the quantised extremal Kähler metrics, introduced in the previous work of the author. We prove that the existence of quantised extremal metrics implies weak relative Chow polystability. As a consequence, we obtain asymptotic weak relative Chow polystability and $K$-semistabili…

The classical integral localization formula for equivariantly closed forms (Theorem 7.11 in [BGV]) is well-known and requires the acting Lie group to be compact. It is restated here as Theorem 2. In this article we extend this result to NONcompact groups. The main result is Theorem 20. Then, using this generalization, …

Formula calculates Riemann-Roch number for singular symplectic quotients.

We calculate the local Riemann-Roch numbers of the zero sections of $T^*S^n$ and $T^*\R P^n$, where the local Riemann-Roch numbers are defined by using the $S^1$-bundle structure on their complements associated to the geodesic flows.

Proves a theorem for complex flat vector bundles using differential forms.

This paper proves positivity of Riemann-Roch polynomials for hyperkähler manifolds.

Let $Δ\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be an $n$-dimensional integral Delzant polytope. It is well-known that there exist the $n$-dimensional compact toric manifold $X_Δ$ and the very ample $(\mathbb{C}^\times)^n$-equivariant line bundle $L_Δ$ on $X_Δ$ associated with $Δ$. In the present paper, we give a necessary and sufficient …

We give a direct proof that the Freed-Lott differential analytic index is well defined and a condensed proof of the differential Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch theorem. As a byproduct we also obtain a direct proof that the R/Z analytic index is well defined and a condensed proof of the R/Z Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch theorem.

This note announces a general construction of characteristic currents for singular connections on a vector bundle. It develops, in particular, a Chern-Weil-Simons theory for smooth bundle maps $α: E \rightarrow F$ which, for smooth connections on $E$ and $F$, establishes formulas of the type $$ φ\ = \ \text{\rm Res}_φΣ…

Let G be a torus and M a G-Hamiltonian manifold with Kostant line bundle L and proper moment map. Let P be the weight lattice of G. We consider a parameter k and the multiplicity $m(λ,k)$ of the quantized representation associated to M and the k-th power of L . We prove that the weighted sum $\sum m(λ,k) f(λ/k)$ of the…

The first author conjectured certain relations for Morita-Mumford classes and Newton classes in the integral cohomology of mapping class groups (integral Riemann-Roch formulae). In this paper, the conjecture is verified for cyclic subgroups of mapping class groups.

Paper introduces Lie algebroid index theory and a generalized Riemann-Roch theorem.

We prove the analogue of the Riemann-Roch formula for the noncommutative two torus $A_θ = C(\mathbb{T}_θ^2)$ equipped with an arbitrary translation invariant complex structure and a Weyl factor represented by a positive element $k\in C^{\infty}(\mathbb{T}_θ^2)$. We consider a topologically trivial line bundle equipped…

Study of orbifold Chern character using superconnections.

In this paper we give a simplified proof of the flat Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch theorem. The proof makes use of the local family index theorem and basic computations of the Chern-Simons form. In particular, it does not involve any adiabatic limit computation of the reduced eta-invariant.

Paper constructs Chern character for coherent sheaves.

The paper establishes inequalities for Chern classes and Riemann-Roch type inequalities for projective manifolds.

Formula derived for Bott-Chern classes in complex blow-ups.

We define a local Riemann-Roch number for an open symplectic manifold when a complete integrable system without Bohr-Sommerfeld fiber is provided on its end. In particular when a structure of a singular Lagrangian fibration is given on a closed symplectic manifold, its Riemann-Roch number is described as the sum of the…

Researchers express spectral determinants on hyperbolic cones.

The purpose of this paper is to give a proof of the real part of the Riemann-Roch-Grothendieck theorem for complex flat vector bundles at the differential form level in the even dimensional fiber case. The proof is, roughly speaking, an application of the local family index theorem for a perturbed twisted spin Dirac op…

In the present paper we discuss an independent on the Grothendieck-Sato isomorphism approach to the Riemann-Roch-Hirzebruch formula for an arbitrary differential operator. Instead of the Grothendieck-Sato isomorphism, we use the Topological Quantum Mechanics (more or less equivalent to the well-known constructions with…

This paper extends Witten's holomorphic Morse inequalities to singular spaces.

New topological Riemann-Roch theorem for circle fibrations.

Using different forms of the arithmetic Riemann-Roch theorem and the computations of Bott-Chern secondary classes, we compute the analytic torsion and the height of Hirzebruch surfaces.

For a finite group G acting on a smooth projective variety X, we construct two new G-equivariant rings: first the stringy K-theory of X, and second the stringy cohomology of X. For a smooth Deligne-Mumford stack Y we also construct a new ring called the full orbifold K-theory of Y. For a global quotient Y=[X/G], the ri…

The paper calculates dimensions of higher Landau levels on compact manifolds.

We give a direct geometric proof of a Danilov-type formula for toric origami manifolds by using the localization of Riemann-Roch number.

In this paper we give a proof of an index theorem by Bismut. As a consequence we obtain another proof of the Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch theorem in differential cohomology.

Study gaps and clusters in eigenvalues of magnetic Laplacian on manifolds.

We prove the LeBrun-Salamon Conjecture in low dimensions. More precisely, we show that a contact Fano manifold X of dimension 2n+1 that has reductive automorphism group of rank at least n-2 is necessarily homogeneous. This implies that any positive quaternion-Kahler manifold of real dimension at most 16 is necessarily …

Harder's reduction theory provides filtrations of euclidean buildings that allow one to deduce cohomological and homological properties of S-arithmetic groups over global function fields. In this survey I will sketch the main points of Harder's reduction theory starting from Weil's geometry of numbers and the Riemann-R…

We prove a multiplicity formula for Riemann-Roch numbers of reductions of Hamiltonian actions of loop groups. This includes as a special case the factorization formula for the quantum dimension of the moduli space of flat connections over a Riemann surface.

Develops a new index theory for odd Z/kZ K-theory.

We present an alternate proof of the Bismut-Zhang localization formula for $η$-invariants without using the analytic techniques developed by Bismut-Lebeau. A Riemann-Roch property for Chern-Simons currents, which is of independent interest, is established in due course.

In this paper, we introduce six axioms for relative Bott-Chern secondary characteristic classes and prove the uniqueness and existence theorem for them. Such a work provides us a natural way to understand and hence to prove the arithmetic Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch theorem.

We generalize work of Deligne and Gillet-Soulé on a Riemann-Roch type isometry, to the case of the trivial sheaf on cusp compactifications of Riemann surfaces $Γ\backslash\mathbb{H}$, for $Γ\subset PSL_{2}(\mathbb{R})$ a fuchsian group of the first kind, equipped with the Poincaré metric. This metric is singular at cus…

The goal of this paper is to re-examine D-brane Ramond-Ramond field couplings in the presence of a B-field. We will argue that the generalised geometry induced on the world volume by the B-field results in an important but subtle change on the coupling. In order to explain this, we use the language of differential K-th…

We obtain a growth estimate for the number of lattice points inside any Q-Gorenstein cone. Our proof uses the result of Futaki-Ono-Wang on Sasaki-Einstein metric for the toric Sasakian manifold associated to the cone, a Yau's inequality, and the Kawasaki-Riemann-Roch formula for orbifolds.

The mathematical physicists Bershadsky-Cecotti-Ooguri-Vafa (BCOV) proposed, in a seminal article from '94, a conjecture extending genus zero mirror symmetry to higher genera. With a view towards a refined formulation of the Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch theorem, we offer a mathematical description of the BCOV conjecture at…

We define the Simons-Sullivan differential analytic index by translating the Freed-Lott differential analytic index via explicit ring isomorphisms between Freed-Lott differential K-theory and Simons-Sullivan differential K-theory. We prove the differential Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch theorem in Simons-Sullivan differenti…
