2-cocycles and Azumaya algebras under birational transformations of algebraic schemes
The goal of this paper is to show that there are strong relations between certain Monge-Ampère integrals appearing in holomorphic Morse inequalities, and asymptotic cohomology estimates for tensor powers of holomorphic line bundles. Especially, we prove that these relations hold without restriction for projective surfaces, and in the special case of the volume, i.e. of asymptotic -cohomology, for all projective manifolds. These results can be seen as a partial converse to the Andreotti-Grauert...
We find two basis of the spaces of rational homology of the Hilbert scheme of points in an algebraic surface, by exhibiting two candidates having as cardinalities the known Betti numbers of this scheme and showing that both intersect in a matrix of nonzero determinant.
