Weakly proper toric quotients

Annette A'Campo-Neuen (2005)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We consider subtorus actions on complex toric varieties. A natural candidate for a categorical quotient of such an action is the so-called toric quotient, a universal object constructed in the toric category. We prove that if the toric quotient is weakly proper and if in addition the quotient variety is of expected dimension then the toric quotient is a categorical quotient in the category of algebraic varieties. For example, weak properness always holds for the toric quotient of a subtorus action...

Weights in cohomology and the Eilenberg-Moore spectral sequence

Matthias Franz, Andrzej Weber (2005)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

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 in the category...
