The complex oriented cohomology of extended powers

John Robert Hunton (1998)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Similarity:

We examine the behaviour of a complex oriented cohomology theory G * ( - ) on D p ( X ) , the C p -extended power of a space X , seeking a description of G * ( D p ( X ) ) in terms of the cohomology G * ( X ) . We give descriptions for the particular cases of Morava K -theory K ( n ) for any space X and for complex cobordism M U , the Brown-Peterson theories BP and any Landweber exact theory for a wide class of spaces.

Salvetti complex, spectral sequences and cohomology of Artin groups

Filippo Callegaro (2014)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Similarity:

The aim of this short survey is to give a quick introduction to the Salvetti complex as a tool for the study of the cohomology of Artin groups. In particular we show how a spectral sequence induced by a filtration on the complex provides a very natural and useful method to study recursively the cohomology of Artin groups, simplifying many computations. In the last section some examples of applications are presented.

Pairings, duality, amenability and bounded cohomology

Jacek Brodzki, Graham A. Niblo, Nick J. Wright (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We give a new perspective on the homological characterizations of amenability given by Johnson & Ringrose in the context of bounded cohomology and by Block & Weinberger in the context of uniformly finite homology. We examine the interaction between their theories and explain the relationship between these characterizations. We apply these ideas to give a new proof of non-vanishing for the bounded cohomology of a free group.

Weights in cohomology and the Eilenberg-Moore spectral sequence

Matthias Franz, Andrzej Weber (2005)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

We show that in the category of complex algebraic varieties, the Eilenberg–Moore spectral sequence can be endowed with a weight filtration. This implies that it degenerates if all spaces involved have pure cohomology. As application, we compute the rational cohomology of an algebraic G -variety X ( G being a connected algebraic group) in terms of its equivariant cohomology provided that H G * ( X ) is pure. This is the case, for example, if X is smooth and has only finitely many orbits. We work...

Leibniz cohomology for differentiable manifolds

Jerry M. Lodder (1998)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Similarity:

We propose a definition of Leibniz cohomology, H L * , for differentiable manifolds. Then H L * becomes a non-commutative version of Gelfand-Fuks cohomology. The calculations of H L * ( R n ; R ) reduce to those of formal vector fields, and can be identified with certain invariants of foliations.
