Extends h-principle to stratified spaces using sheaf and jet theories.

Homotopy theory of differentiable sheaves connects manifold properties to underlying homotopy types.

New homotopy theory reveals the structure of stable curves.

We show that conically smooth stratified spaces embed fully faithfully into $\infty$-categories. This articulates a stratified generalization of the homotopy hypothesis proposed by Grothendieck. As such, each $\infty$-category defines a stack on conically smooth stratified spaces, and we identify the descent conditions…

Derived differential manifolds are constructed using the usual homotopy theory of simplicial rings of smooth functions. They are proved to be equivalent to derived differential manifolds of finite type, constructed using homotopy sheaves of homotopy rings (D.Spivak), thus preserving the classical cobordism ring. This r…

Study homology manifolds using spectral sheaves and spectral six functor formalism.

Novel construction of Bauer--Furuta invariant using sheaves of spectra.

Using the concept of a cohesive module defined by Block, we use the theory of superconnections in the sense of Quillen to construct natural superconnections on Hermitian cohesive modules. By the Chern-Weil construction, we obtain characteristic classes with values in Bott-Chern cohomology which refines the usual deRham…

Modern differential cohomology explained with applications.

We show that Verdier duality for certain sheaves on the moduli spaces of graphs associated to Koszul operads corresponds to Koszul duality of operads. This in particular gives a conceptual explanation of the appearance of graph cohomology of both the commutative and Lie types in computations of the cohomology of the ou…

We prove that Chern-Weil forms are the only natural differential forms associated to a connection on a principal G-bundle. We use the homotopy theory of simplicial sheaves on smooth manifolds to formulate the theorem and set up the proof. Other arguments come from classical invariant theory. We identify the Weil algebr…

Study co-Higgs sheaves on toric varieties, finding explicit examples.

The paper studies equivariant sheaves on toric varieties and their quotients.

We review the notion of Gieseker stability for torsion-free Higgs sheaves. This notion is a natural generalization of the classical notion of Gieseker stability for torsion-free coherent sheaves. We prove some basic properties that are similar to the classical ones for torsion-free coherent sheaves over projective alge…

Characterizes tangent cones for specific connections on reflexive sheaves.

Constructs coordinate systems from spectral curve sheaves.

New potentials found for sheaves on Calabi-Yau 4-folds.

Paper constructs Chern character for coherent sheaves.

This note is mostly an exposition of an unpublished result of Deligne, which introduces an analogue of perverse $t$-structure on the derived category of coherent sheaves on a Noetherian scheme with a dualizing complex. Construction extends to the category of coherent sheaves equivariant under an action of an algebraic …

Study Kobayashi-Hitchin correspondence for special sheaves on Kähler manifolds.

Augmentations and sheaves linked for Legendrian graphs.

A singular (or Hermann) foliation on a smooth manifold $M$ can be seen as a subsheaf of the sheaf $\mathfrak{X}$ of vector fields on $M$. We show that if this singular foliation admits a resolution (in the sense of sheaves) consisting of sections of a graded vector bundle of finite type, then one can lift the Lie brack…

Develops equivariant Chern characters for coherent sheaves with group actions.

We classify the simple sheaves microsupported along the conormal bundle of a knot. We also establish a correspondence between simple sheaves up to local systems and augmentations, explaining the underlying reason why knot contact homology representations detect augmentations.

The paper connects connections on sheaves to an $L_{\infty}$ morphism lifting semiregularity maps.

Defines sheaves and Čech cohomology for diffeological spaces and classifies principal bundles.

Given a smooth projective toric variety $X_Σ$ of complex dimension $n$, Fang-Liu-Treumann-Zaslow \cite{FLTZ} showed that there is a quasi-embedding of the differential graded (dg) derived category of coherent sheaves $Coh(X_Σ)$ into the dg derived category of constructible sheaves on a torus $Sh(T^n, Λ_Σ)$. Recently, K…

We establish a Kobayashi-Hitchin correspondence for the stable Higgs sheaves on a compact Kaehler manifold. Using it, we also obtain a Kobayashi-Hitchin correspondence for the stable Higgs G-sheaves, where G is any complex reductive linear algebraic group.

Develops a new method to study algebraic tangent cones of sheaves using valuations.

Let $M$ be a hyperkaehler manifold, and $F$ a torsion-free and reflexive coherent sheaf on $M$. Assume that $F$ (outside of its singularities) admits a connection with a curvature which is invariant under the standard SU(2)-action on 2-forms. If the curvature is square-integrable, then $F$ is stable and its singulariti…

Unified framework for Morita invariant cohomology of Lie groupoids.

Generalized Nakano positivity for certain singular cases.

We extend Nadel's results on some conditions for the multiplier ideal sheaves to satisfy which are described in terms of an obstruction defined by the first author. Applying our extension we can determine the multiplier ideal sheaves on toric del Pezzo surfaces which do not admit Kähler-Einstein metrics. We also show t…

Sheaves on graphs link to noncommutative geometry.

Geometrically computes sheaves linking HOMFLY-PT homology to Hilbert schemes.

This is a large audience version of our previous work (see math.AG/0301146) in which we prove the existence of an (exact) equivalence between the category of coherent analytic sheaves and the category of $\bar{\partial}$-coherent sheaves. We also include here the complete proof of our main Theorem.

Proves Verdier duality for sheaves on stratified spaces.

Extends six operations to sheaves in any symmetric monoidal category.

In this expository article we first give an overview on multiplier ideal sheaves and geometric problems in Kählerian and Sasakian geometries. Then we review our recent results on the relationship between the support of the subschemes cut out by multiplier ideal sheaves and the invariant whose non-vanishing obstructs th…

In this note we construct Nadel multiplier ideal sheaves using the Ricci flow on Fano manifolds. This extends a result of Phong, Sesum and Sturm. These sheaves, like their counterparts constructed by Nadel for the continuity method, can be used to obtain an existence criterion for Kahler-Einstein metrics.

We study the notion of algebraic tangent cones at singularities of reflexive sheaves. These correspond to extensions of reflexive sheaves across a negative divisor. We show the existence of optimal extensions in a constructive manner, and we prove the uniqueness in a suitable sense. The results here are an algebro-geom…

A celebrated theorem of Kapranov states that the Atiyah class of the tangent bundle of a complex manifold $X$ makes $T_X[-1]$ into a Lie algebra object in $D^+(X)$, the bounded below derived category of coherent sheaves on $X$. Furthermore Kapranov proved that, for a Kähler manifold $X$, the Dolbeault resolution $Ω^{\b…

The flow converges without Kähler-Einstein and develops ideal sheaves.

New $L_\infty$ liftings derived from Chern-Simons classes for coherent sheaves.

Lecture notes introduce differential geometry using sheaves and differential operators.

We study the basic properties of Higgs sheaves over compact Kähler manifolds and we establish some results concerning the notion of semistability; in particular, we show that any extension of semistable Higgs sheaves with equal slopes is semistable. Then, we use the flattening theorem to construct a regularization of a…
