Dolbeault cohomology of compact complex homogeneous manifolds

We show that ifM is the total space of a holomorphic bundle with base space a simply connected homogeneous projective variety and fibre and structure group a compact complex torus, then the identity component of the automorphism group ofM acts trivially on the Dolbeault cohomology ofM. We consider a class of compact complex homogeneous spacesW, which we call generalized Hopf manifolds, which are diffeomorphic to S¹ ×K/L whereK is a compact connected simple Lie group andL is the semisimple part of the centralizer of a one dimensional torus inK. We compute the Dolbeault cohomology ofW. We compute the Picard group of any generalized Hopf manifold and show that every line bundle over a generalized Hopf manifold arises from a representation of its fundamental group.     

Integral Theory for Hopf Algebroids

The theory of integrals is used to analyze the structure of Hopf algebroids. We prove that the total algebra of a Hopf algebroid is a separable extension of the base algebra if and only if it is a semi-simple extension and if and only if the Hopf algebroid possesses a normalized integral. It is a Frobenius extension if and only if the Hopf algebroid possesses a nondegenerate integral. We give also a sufficient and necessary condition in terms of integrals, under which it is a quasi-Frobenius extension, and illustrate by an example that this condition does not hold true in general. Our results are generalizations of classical results on Hopf algebras.     

Multiplier Hopf algebroids: Basic theory and examples

Multiplier Hopf algebroids are algebraic versions of quantum groupoids that generalize Hopf algebroids to the non-unital case and weak (multiplier) Hopf algebras to non-separable base algebras. The main structure maps of a multiplier Hopf algebroid are a left and a right comultiplication. We show that bijectivity of two associated canonical maps is equivalent to the existence of an antipode, discusses invertibility of the antipode, and presents some examples and special cases.     

Left‐symmetric algebroids

In this paper, we introduce the notion of a left‐symmetric algebroid, which is a generalization of a left‐symmetric algebra from a vector space to a vector bundle. The left multiplication gives rise to a representation of the corresponding sub‐adjacent Lie algebroid. We construct left‐symmetric algebroids from ‐operators on Lie algebroids. We study phase spaces of Lie algebroids in terms of left‐symmetric algebroids. Representations of left‐symmetric algebroids are studied in detail. At last, we study deformations of left‐symmetric algebroids, which could be controlled by the second cohomology class in the deformation cohomology.     

Modular classes of Loday algebroids

We introduce the concept of Loday algebroids, a generalization of Courant algebroids. We define the naive cohomology and modular class of a Loday algebroid, and we show that the modular class of the double of a Lie bialgebroid vanishes. For Courant algebroids, we describe the relation between the naive and standard cohomologies and we conjecture that they are isomorphic when the Courant algebroid is transitive.

On geometrically transitive Hopf algebroids

This paper contributes to the characterization of a certain class of commutative Hopf algebroids. It is shown that a commutative flat Hopf algebroid with a non zero base ring and a nonempty character groupoid is geometrically transitive if and only if any base change morphism is a weak equivalence (in particular, if any extension of the base ring is Landweber exact), if and only if any trivial bundle is a principal bi-bundle, and if and only if any two objects are fpqc locally isomorphic. As a consequence, any two isotropy Hopf algebras of a geometrically transitive Hopf algebroid (as above) are weakly equivalent. Furthermore, the character groupoid is transitive and any two isotropy Hopf algebras are conjugated. Several other characterizations of these Hopf algebroids in relation to transitive groupoids are also given.     

Bivariant Hopf Cyclic Cohomology

For module algebras and module coalgebras over an arbitrary bialgebra, we define two types of bivariant cyclic cohomology groups called bivariant Hopf cyclic cohomology and bivariant equivariant cyclic cohomology. These groups are defined through an extension of Connes' cyclic category Λ. We show that, in the case of module coalgebras, bivariant Hopf cyclic cohomology specializes to Hopf cyclic cohomology of Connes and Moscovici and its dual version by fixing either one of the variables as the ground field. We also prove an appropriate version of Morita invariance for both of these theories.     

Hopf algebras of primitive Lie pseudogroups and Hopf cyclic cohomology

We associate to each infinite primitive Lie pseudogroup a Hopf algebra of ‘transverse symmetries,’ by refining a procedure due to Connes and the first author in the case of the general pseudogroup. The affiliated Hopf algebra can be viewed as a ‘quantum group’ counterpart of the infinite-dimensional primitive Lie algebra of the pseudogroup. It is first constructed via its action on the étale groupoid associated to the pseudogroup, and then realized as a bicrossed product of a universal enveloping algebra by a Hopf algebra of regular functions on a formal group. The bicrossed product structure allows to express its Hopf cyclic cohomology in terms of a bicocyclic bicomplex analogous to the Chevalley-Eilenberg complex. As an application, we compute the relative Hopf cyclic cohomology modulo the linear isotropy for the Hopf algebra of the general pseudogroup, and find explicit cocycle representatives for the universal Chern classes in Hopf cyclic cohomology. As another application, we determine all Hopf cyclic cohomology groups for the Hopf algebra associated to the pseudogroup of local diffeomorphisms of the line.     

Cyclic cohomology of Hopf algebras

We give a construction of the Connes–Moscovici cyclic cohomology for any Hopf algebra equipped with a character (solving the technical problem raised in Connes and Moscovici (Comm. Math. Phys. 198 (1998) 199–246)). Furthermore, we introduce a non-commutative Weil complex, which connects the work of Gelfand and Smirnov with cyclic cohomology. We show how the Weil complex arises naturally when looking at Hopf algebra actions and invariant higher traces, to give a non-commutative version of the usual Chern–Weil theory.     

The localized longitudinal index theorem for Lie groupoids and the van Est map

We define the “localized index” of longitudinal elliptic operators on Lie groupoids associated with Lie algebroid cohomology classes. We derive a topological expression for these numbers using the algebraic index theorem for Poisson manifolds on the dual of the Lie algebroid. Underlying the definition and computation of the localized index, is an action of the Hopf algebroid of jets around the unit space, and the characteristic map it induces on Lie algebroid cohomology. This map can be globalized to differentiable groupoid cohomology, giving a definition of the “global index”, that can be computed by localization. This correspondence between the “global” and “localized” index is given by the van Est map for Lie groupoids.     

The index of geometric operators on Lie groupoids

We revisit the cohomological index theorem for elliptic elements in the universal enveloping algebra of a Lie groupoid previously proved by the authors. We prove a Thom isomorphism for Lie algebroids which enables us to rewrite the “topological side” of the index theorem. This results in index formulae for Lie groupoid analogues of the familiar geometric operators on manifolds such as the signature and Dirac operator expressed in terms of the usual characteristic classes in Lie algebroid cohomology.     

ON DE RHAM AND DOLBEAULT COHOMOLOGY OF SOLVMANIFOLDS

For a simply connected (non-nilpotent) solvable Lie group G with a lattice Γ the de Rham and Dolbeault cohomologies of the solvmanifold G/Γ are not in general isomorphic to the cohomologies of the Lie algebra g of G. In this paper we construct, up to a finite group, a new Lie algebra eg whose cohomology is isomorphic to the de Rham cohomology of G/Γ by using a modification of G associated with an algebraic sub-torus of the Zariski-closure of the image of the adjoint representation. This technique includes the construction due to Guan and developed by the first two authors. In this paper, we also give a Dolbeault version of such technique for complex solvmanifolds, i.e., for solvmanifolds endowed with an invariant complex structure. We construct a finite-dimensional cochain complex which computes the Dolbeault cohomology of a complex solvmanifold G/Γ with holomorphic Mostow bundle and we give a construction of a new Lie algebra \( \overset{\smile }{\mathfrak{g}} \) with a complex structure whose cohomology is isomorphic to the Dolbeault cohomology of G/Γ.     

New coefficients for Hopf Cyclic Cohomology

In this note, the categories of coefficients for Hopf cyclic cohomology of comodule algebras and comodule coalgebras are extended. We show that these new categories have two proper different subcategories where the smallest one is the known category of stable anti Yetter–Drinfeld modules. We prove that components of Hopf cyclic cohomology such as cup products work well with these new coefficients.     

Hopf cyclic cohomology and transverse characteristic classes

We refine the cyclic cohomological apparatus for computing the Hopf cyclic cohomology of the Hopf algebras associated to infinite primitive Cartan–Lie pseudogroups, and for the transfer of their characteristic classes to foliations. The main novel feature is the precise identification as a Hopf cyclic complex of the image of the canonical homomorphism from the Gelfand–Fuks complex to the Bott complex for equivariant cohomology. This provides a convenient new model for the Hopf cyclic cohomology of the geometric Hopf algebras, which allows for an efficient transport of the Hopf cyclic classes via characteristic homomorphisms. We illustrate the latter aspect by indicating how to realize the universal Hopf cyclic Chern classes in terms of explicit cocycles in the cyclic cohomology of étale foliation groupoids.     

Hopf-cyclic homology and cohomology with coefficients

Following the idea of an invariant differential complex, we construct general-type cyclic modules that provide the common denominator of known cyclic theories. The cyclicity of these modules is governed by Hopf-algebraic structures. We prove that the existence of a cyclic operator forces a modification of the Yetter–Drinfeld compatibility condition leading to the concept of a stable anti-Yetter–Drinfeld module. This module plays the role of the space of coefficients in the thus obtained cyclic cohomology of module algebras and coalgebras, and the cyclic homology and cohomology of comodule algebras. Along the lines of Connes and Moscovici, we show that there is a pairing between the cyclic cohomology of a module coalgebra acting on a module algebra and closed 0-cocycles on the latter. The pairing takes values in the usual cyclic cohomology of the algebra. Similarly, we argue that there is an analogous pairing between closed 0-cocycles of a module coalgebra and the cyclic cohomology of a module algebra. To cite this article: P.M. Hajac et al., C. R.

Modular Classes of Lie Algebroid Morphisms

We study the behavior of the modular class of a Lie algebroid under general Lie algebroid morphisms by introducing the relative modular class. We investigate the modular classes of pull-back morphisms and of base-preserving morphisms associated to Lie algebroid extensions. We also define generalized morphisms, including Morita equivalences, that act on the 1-cohomology, and observe that the relative modular class is a coboundary on the category of Lie algebroids and generalized morphisms with values in the 1-cohomology.     

Dolbeault cohomology of compact nilmanifolds

LetM=G/ be a compact nilmanifold endowed with an invariant complex structure. We prove that on an open set of any connected component of the moduli space of invariant complex structures onM, the Dolbeault cohomology ofM is isomorphic to the cohomology of the differential bigraded algebra associated to the complexification of the Lie algebra ofG. to obtain this result, we first prove the above isomorphism for compact nilmanifolds endowed with a rational invariant complex structure. This is done using a descending series associated to the complex structure and the Borel spectral sequences for the corresponding set of holomorphic fibrations. Then we apply the theory of Kodaira-Spencer for deformations of complex structures.Research partially supported by MURST and CNR of Italy.Research partially supported by MURST and CNR of Italy.     

Nondegenerate cohomology pairing for transitive Lie algebroids,characterization

The Evens-Lu-Weinstein representation (Q _A , D) for a Lie algebroid A on a manifold M is studied in the transitive case. To consider at the same time non-oriented manifolds as well, this representation is slightly modified to (Q _A ^or , D^or) by tensoring by orientation flat line bundle, Q _A ^or =Q_A⊗or (M) and D ^or=D⊗∂ _A ^or . It is shown that the induced cohomology pairing is nondegenerate and that the representation (Q _A ^or , D^or) is the unique (up to isomorphy) line representation for which the top group of compactly supported cohomology is nontrivial. In the case of trivial Lie algebroid A=TM the theorem reduce to the following: the orientation flat bundle (or (M), ∂ _A ^or ) is the unique (up to isomorphy) flat line bundle (ξ, ∇) for which the twisted de Rham complex of compactly supported differential forms on M with values in ξ possesses the nontrivial cohomology group in the top dimension. Finally it is obtained the characterization of transitive Lie algebroids for which the Lie algebroid cohomology with trivial coefficients (or with coefficients in the orientation flat line bundle) gives Poincaré duality. In proofs of these theorems for Lie algebroids it is used the Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence and it is shown the general fact concerning pairings between graded filtered differential ℝ-vector spaces: assuming that the second terms live in the finite rectangular, nondegeneration of the pairing for the second terms (which can be infinite dimensional) implies the same for cohomology spaces.     

Cyclic cohomology of Hopf algebras of transverse symmetries in codimension 1

We develop intrinsic tools for computing the periodic Hopf cyclic cohomology of Hopf algebras related to transverse symmetry in codimension 1. Besides the Hopf algebra found by Connes and the first author in their work on the local index formula for transversely hypoelliptic operators on foliations, this family includes its ‘Schwarzian’ quotient, on which the Rankin-Cohen universal deformation formula is based, the extended Connes-Kreimer Hopf algebra related to renormalization of divergences in QFT, as well as a series of cyclic coverings of these Hopf algebras, motivated by the treatment of transverse symmetry for non-orientable foliations.The method for calculating their Hopf cyclic cohomology is based on two computational devices, which work in tandem and complement each other: one is a spectral sequence for bicrossed product Hopf algebras and the other a Cartan-type homotopy formula in Hopf cyclic cohomology.
