We obtain formulas for the first and second cohomology groups of a general current Lie algebra with coefficients in the "current" module, and apply them to compute structure functions for manifolds of loops with values in compact Hermitian symmetric spaces.
We propose an approach to study non-Abelian Iwasawa theory, using the idea of Johnson homomorphisms in low dimensional topology. We introduce arithmetic analogues of Johnson homomorphisms/maps, called the p-Johnson homomorphisms/maps, associated to the Zassenhaus filtration of a pro-p Galois group over a Z_p-extension …
We review localization techniques for functional integrals which have recently been used to perform calculations in and gain insight into the structure of certain topological field theories and low-dimensional gauge theories. These are the functional integral counterparts of the Mathai-Quillen formalism, the Duistermaa…
The paper studies deformations of Filippov algebroids using cohomology and DGLA.
problem Deformations of Filippov algebroids.
method Defined a DGLA for Filippov algebroids and used low-dimensional cohomology to discuss deformations. Characterized trivial deformations using Nijenhuis operators and defined finite order deformations.
result Characterized trivial deformations of Filippov algebroids using Nijenhuis operators.
We initiate the study of holomorphically convex groups: groups that can be realized as fundamental groups of smooth complex projective varieties with holomorphically convex universal covers. If G is a holomorphically convex group of cohomological dimension two, we show that G is isomorphic to the fundamental group …
In earlier joint work with A. Connes on transverse index theory on foliations, cyclic cohomology adapted to Hopf algebras has emerged as a decisive tool in deciphering the total index class of the hypoelliptic signature operator. We have found a Hopf algebra H(n), playing the role of a `quantum structure group' for the…
We give explicit formulae for fringe lengths of the Calegari-Walker Ziggurats -- i.e. graphs of extremal rotation numbers associated to positive words in free groups. These formulae reveal (partial) integral projective self-similarity in ziggurat fringes, which are low-dimensional projections of characteristic polyhedr…
The paper explores the formality of low-dimensional manifolds using algebraic structures.
problem Investigating the formality of low-dimensional manifolds.
method Introducing Poincaré DGCAs of Hodge type and small algebra/quotient algebras to study equivalence classes of manifolds.
result A (r−1) connected Poincaré DGCA of Hodge type is A∞-quasi-isomorphic to an A3-algebra, with the formality determined by a specific Harrison cohomology class.
The theory of differential forms began with a discovery of Poincare who found conservation laws of a new type for Hamiltonian systems - The Integral Invariants. Even in the absence of non-trivial integrals of motion, there exist invariant differential forms: a symplectic two-form, or a contact one-form for geodesic flo…
The quandle homology theory is generalized to the case when the coefficient groups admit the structure of Alexander quandles, by including an action of the infinite cyclic group in the boundary operator. Theories of Alexander extensions of quandles in relation to low dimensional cocycles are developed in parallel to gr…
These are notes from lectures given at the Clay Institute Summer School on "Floer homology, gauge theory and low-dimensional topology" (Budapest, 2004). The first part describes as background some of the geometry of symplectic fibre bundles and their monodromy. The second part, overviewing joint work with Paul Seidel, …
In low dimensional topology, we have some invariants defined by using solutions of some nonlinear elliptic operators. The invariants could be understood as Euler class or degree in the ordinary cohomology, in infinite dimensional setting. Instead of looking at the solutions, if we can regard some kind of homotopy class…
The groups Γn,s are defined in terms of homotopy equivalences of certain graphs, and are natural generalisations of $\mbox{Out}(F_n)$ and $\mbox{Aut}(F_n)$. They have appeared frequently in the study of free group automorphisms, for example in proofs of homological stability in [8,9] and in the proof that Out$(F_n…
Study characterizes cohomology of Vaisman manifolds, linking Bott-Chern and Dolbeault numbers.
problem Characterize Bott-Chern cohomology of Vaisman manifolds.
method Explicit description via basic cohomology, infer relationships between cohomology groups, show invariants are unbounded, cohomological characterization of formality.
result Bott-Chern and Dolbeault numbers determine each other for Vaisman manifolds, and cohomological invariants are unbounded.
In this paper we define a new cohomology of a smooth manifold called Lichnerowicz type cohomology attached to a function. Firstly, we study some basic properties of this cohomology as: a de Rham type isomorphism, dependence on the function, singular forms, relative cohomology, Mayer-Vietoris sequence, homotopy invarian…
Rham cohomology of Lie groupoids over triangulated manifolds is isomorphic to piecewise cohomology.
problem Establishing Rham cohomology for Lie groupoids over triangulated manifolds.
method Using isomorphism between Lie algebroid cohomology and piecewise smooth cohomology, proving Rham cohomology is isomorphic to piecewise Rham cohomology.
result Piecewise de Rham cohomology of a Lie groupoid does not depend on the triangulation of the base.
