Modular Invariance and Anomaly Cancellation Formulas in Odd Dimension Ⅱ

By studying modular invariance properties of some characteristic forms, we get some generalized anomaly cancellation formulas on(4 r-1)-dimensional manifolds with no assumption that the 3rd de-Rham cohomology of manifolds vanishes. These anomaly cancellation formulas generalize our previous anomaly cancellation formulas on(4 r-1)-dimensional manifolds. We also generalize our previous anomaly cancellation formulas on(4 r-1)-dimensional manifolds and the Han–Yu rigidity theorem to the(a, b) case.

Even dimensional manifolds and generalized anomaly cancellation formulas

We give a direct proof of a cancellation formula raised by Han and Zhang (2004) on the level of differential forms. We also obtain more cancellation formulas for even dimensional Riemannian manifolds with a complex line bundle involved. Relations among these cancellation formulas are discussed.

     

Spinc-manifolds and elliptic genera

We present an extension of the “miraculous cancellation” formulas of Alvarez-Gaumé, Witten and Kefeng Liu to a twisted version where an extra complex line bundle is involved. Relations to the Ochanine congruence formula on 8k+4 dimensional Spin^c manifolds are discussed. To cite this article: F. Han, W. Zhang, C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris, Ser. I 336 (2003).     

On twisted contact groupoids and on integration of twisted Jacobi manifolds

We introduce the concept of twisted contact groupoids, as an extension either of contact groupoids or of twisted symplectic ones, and we discuss the integration of twisted Jacobi manifolds by twisted contact groupoids. We also investigate the very close relationships which link homogeneous twisted Poisson manifolds with twisted Jacobi manifolds and homogeneous twisted symplectic groupoids with twisted contact ones. Some examples for each structure are presented.     

Twisted holomorphic chains and vortex equations over non-compact Kähler manifolds

In this paper, we study twisted holomorphic chains and related gauge equations over non-compact Kähler manifolds. We use the heat flow method to solve the Dirichlet boundary problem for the related gauge equations, and prove a Hitchin-Kobayashi type correspondence for twisted holomorphic chain over some non-compact Kähler manifolds.     

Anomaly formulas for the complex-valued analytic torsion on compact bordisms

We extend the complex-valued analytic torsion, introduced by Burghelea and Haller on closed manifolds, to compact Riemannian bordisms. We do so by considering a flat complex vector bundle over a compact Riemannian manifold, endowed with a fiberwise nondegenerate symmetric bilinear form. The Riemmanian metric and the bilinear form are used to define non-selfadjoint Laplacians acting on vector-valued smooth forms under absolute and relative boundary conditions. In order to define the complex-valued analytic torsion in this situation, we study spectral properties of these generalized Laplacians. Then, as main results, we obtain so-called anomaly formulas for this torsion. Our reasoning takes into account that the coefficients in the heat trace asymptotic expansion associated to the boundary value problem under consideration, are locally computable. The anomaly formulas for the complex-valued Ray–Singer torsion are derived first by using the corresponding ones for the Ray–Singer metric, obtained by Brüning and Ma on manifolds with boundary, and then an argument of analytic continuation. In odd dimensions, our anomaly formulas are in accord with the corresponding results of Su, without requiring the variations of the Riemannian metric and bilinear structures to be supported in the interior of the manifold.     

Twisted signatures of flag manifolds

A product formula for some twisted signatures of flag manifolds is proved. The result is used to compute twisted signatures of some flag manifolds from those of Grassmannians, and by that to deduce some upper bounds of the stable span.      

Regularity of the eta function on manifolds with cusps

On a spin manifold with conformal cusps, we prove under an invertibility condition at infinity that the eta function of the twisted Dirac operator has at most simple poles and is regular at the origin. For hyperbolic manifolds of finite volume, the eta function of the Dirac operator twisted by any homogeneous vector bundle is shown to be entire.     

The Gelfand-Cetlin system and quantization of the complex flag manifolds

The construction of angle action variables for collective completely integrable systems is described and the associated Bohr-Sommerfeld sets are determined. The quantization method of Sniatycki applied to such systems gives formulas for multiplicities. For the Gelfand-Cetlin system on complex flag manifolds we show that these formulas give the correct answers for the multiplicities of the associated representations.

On the L 2-extension of twisted holomorphic sections of singular hermitian line bundles

We prove a sharp Ohsawa–Takegoshi–Manivel type L ²-extension result for twisted holomorphic sections of singular hermitian line bundles over almost Stein manifolds. We establish as corollaries some extension results for pluri-twisted holomorphic sections of singular hermitian line bundles over projective manifolds.     

Monotonicity theorems for Laplace Beltrami operator on Riemannian manifolds

For free boundary problems on Euclidean spaces, the monotonicity formulas of Alt–Caffarelli–Friedman and Caffarelli–Jerison–Kenig are cornerstones for the regularity theory as well as the existence theory. In this article we establish the analogs of these results for the Laplace–Beltrami operator on Riemannian manifolds. As an application we show that our monotonicity theorems can be employed to prove the Lipschitz continuity for the solutions of a general class of two-phase free boundary problems on Riemannian manifolds.     

The Thurston norm, fibered manifolds and twisted Alexander polynomials

Every element in the first cohomology group of a 3-manifold is dual to embedded surfaces. The Thurston norm measures the minimal ‘complexity’ of such surfaces. For instance the Thurston norm of a knot complement determines the genus of the knot in the 3-sphere. We show that the degrees of twisted Alexander polynomials give lower bounds on the Thurston norm, generalizing work of McMullen and Turaev. Our bounds attain their most concise form when interpreted as the degrees of the Reidemeister torsion of a certain twisted chain complex. We show that these lower bounds give the correct genus bounds for all knots with 12 crossings or less, including the Conway knot and the Kinoshita-Terasaka knot which have trivial Alexander polynomial.We also give obstructions to fibering 3-manifolds using twisted Alexander polynomials and detect all knots with 12 crossings or less that are not fibered. For some of these it was unknown whether or not they are fibered. Our work in particular extends the fibering obstructions of Cha to the case of closed manifolds.     

First order Feynman–Kac formula

We study the parabolic integral kernel for the weighted Laplacian with a potential. For manifolds with a pole we deduce formulas and estimates for the derivatives of the Feynman–Kac kernels and their logarithms, these are in terms of a ‘Gaussian’ term and the semi-classical bridge.     

Rigidity Theorems for Complete Sasakian Manifolds with Constant Pseudo-Hermitian Scalar Curvature

The orthogonal decomposition of the Webster curvature provides us a way to characterize some canonical metrics on a pseudo-Hermitian manifold. We derive some subelliptic differential inequalities from the Weitzenböck formulas for the traceless pseudo-Hermitian Ricci tensor of Sasakian manifolds with constant pseudo-Hermitian scalar curvature and the Chern–Moser tensor of the Sasakian pseudo-Einstein manifolds, respectively. By means of either subelliptic estimates or maximum principle, some rigidity theorems are established to characterize Sasakian pseudo-Einstein manifolds among Sasakian manifolds with constant pseudo-Hermitian scalar curvature and Sasakian space forms among Sasakian pseudo-Einstein manifolds, respectively.
