Lefschetz–Verdier Trace Formula and a Generalization of a Theorem of Fujiwara

The goal of this paper is to generalize a theorem of Fujiwara (Deligne’s conjecture) to the situation appearing in a joint work [KV] with David Kazhdan on the global Langlands correspondence over function fields. Moreover, our proof is more elementary than the original one and stays in the realm of ordinary algebraic geometry, that is, does not use rigid geometry. We also give a proof of the Lefschetz–Verdier trace formula and of the additivity of filtered trace maps, thus making the paper essentially self-contained.

Examples of non-Kähler Hamiltonian circle manifolds with the strong Lefschetz property

In this paper we construct six-dimensional compact non-Kähler Hamiltonian circle manifolds which satisfy the strong Lefschetz property themselves but nevertheless have a non-Lefschetz symplectic quotient. This provides the first known counterexamples to the question whether the strong Lefschetz property descends to the symplectic quotient. We also give examples of Hamiltonian strong Lefschetz circle manifolds which have a non-Lefschetz fixed point submanifold. In addition, we establish a sufficient and necessary condition for a finitely presentable group to be the fundamental group of a strong Lefschetz manifold. We then use it to show the existence of Lefschetz four-manifolds with non-Lefschetz finite covering spaces.     

Lefschetz Formulae for p -Adic Groups

Abstract In this paper, Lefschetz formulae for torus actions on p-adic groups are proven. These are similar to comparable formulae for real Lie groups. Applications lie in the realm of dynamical zeta functions.

Quaternionic geometry of matroids

Building on a recent paper [8], here we argue that the combinatorics of matroids are intimately related to the geometry and topology of toric hyperkähler varieties. We show that just like toric varieties occupy a central role in Stanley’s proof for the necessity of McMullen’s conjecture (or g-inequalities) about the classification of face vectors of simplicial polytopes, the topology of toric hyperkähler varieties leads to new restrictions on face vectors of matroid complexes. Namely in this paper we will give two proofs that the injectivity part of the Hard Lefschetz theorem survives for toric hyperkähler varieties. We explain how this implies the g-inequalities for rationally representable matroids. We show how the geometrical intuition in the first proof, coupled with results of Chari [3], leads to a proof of the g-inequalities for general matroid complexes, which is a recent result of Swartz [20]. The geometrical idea in the second proof will show that a pure O-sequence should satisfy the g-inequalities, thus showing that our result is in fact a consequence of a long-standing conjecture of Stanley.     

Fixed point formula for holomorphic functions

We show a Lefschetz fixed point formula for holomorphic functions in a bounded domain with smooth boundary in the complex plane. To introduce the Lefschetz number for a holomorphic map of , we make use of the Bergman kernel of this domain. The Lefschetz number is proved to be the sum of the usual contributions of fixed points of the map in and contributions of boundary fixed points, these latter being different for attracting and repulsing fixed points.

     

Minimal number of singular fibers in a Lefschetz fibration

There exists a (relatively minimal) genus Lefschetz fibration with only one singular fiber over a closed (Riemann) surface of genus iff and . The singular fiber can be chosen to be reducible or irreducible. Other results are that every Dehn twist on a closed surface of genus at least three is a product of two commutators and no Dehn twist on any closed surface is equal to a single commutator.

     

Necessary and sufficient conditions for s-Hopfian manifolds to be codimension-2 fibrators

Fibrators help detect approximate fibrations. A closed, connected -manifold is called a codimension-2 fibrator if each map defined on an -manifold such that all fibre , are shape equivalent to is an approximate fibration. The most natural objects to study are s-Hopfian manifolds. In this note we give some necessary and sufficient conditions for s-Hopfian manifolds to be codimension-2 fibrators.

     

The Structural Nature of the Nerve Functor for n-Groupoids

Given a left exact category B, the construction of the nerve functor _n for n-groupoids in B is related to a certain property of the category S-S i m p l _{n – 1} B of the split (n – 1)-truncated simplicial objects in B, which allows us to define the split n-truncated simplicial objects in B completely internally to S-S i m p l _{n – 1} B and thus to construct intrisincally from it the category S-S i m p l _n B.
