A description based on Schubert classes of cohomology of flag manifolds

Masaki Nakagawa (2008)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We describe the integral cohomology rings of the flag manifolds of types Bₙ, Dₙ, G₂ and F₄ in terms of their Schubert classes. The main tool is the divided difference operators of Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand and Demazure. As an application, we compute the Chow rings of the corresponding complex algebraic groups, recovering thereby the results of R. Marlin.

A faithful linear-categorical action of the mapping class group of a surface with boundary

Robert Lipshitz, Peter Ozsváth, Dylan P. Thurston (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We show that the action of the mapping class group on bordered Floer homology in the second to extremal spin c -structure is faithful. This paper is designed partly as an introduction to the subject, and much of it should be readable without a background in Floer homology.

A Fatou-Julia decomposition of transversally holomorphic foliations

Taro Asuke (2010)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

A Fatou-Julia decomposition of transversally holomorphic foliations of complex codimension one was given by Ghys, Gomez-Mont and Saludes. In this paper, we propose another decomposition in terms of normal families. Two decompositions have common properties as well as certain differences. It will be shown that the Fatou sets in our sense always contain the Fatou sets in the sense of Ghys, Gomez-Mont and Saludes and the inclusion is strict in some examples. This property is important when discussing...

A few remarks on the geometry of the space of leaf closures of a Riemannian foliation

Małgorzata Józefowicz, R. Wolak (2007)

Banach Center Publications

The space of the closures of leaves of a Riemannian foliation is a nice topological space, a stratified singular space which can be topologically embedded in k for k sufficiently large. In the case of Orbit Like Foliations (OLF) the smooth structure induced by the embedding and the smooth structure defined by basic functions is the same. We study geometric structures adapted to the foliation and present conditions which assure that the given structure descends to the leaf closure space. In Section...
