Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra structures on Hochschild cohomology

Luc Menichi (2009)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Let M be any compact simply-connected oriented d -dimensional smooth manifold and let 𝔽 be any field. We show that the Gerstenhaber algebra structure on the Hochschild cohomology on the singular cochains of M , H H * ( S * ( M ) , S * ( M ) ) , extends to a Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra. Such Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra was conjectured to exist and is expected to be isomorphic to the Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra on the free loop space homology on M , H * + d ( L M ) introduced by Chas and Sullivan. We also show that the negative cyclic cohomology H C - * ( S * ( M ) ) ...

Compactly supported cohomology of systolic 3-pseudomanifolds

Roger Gómez-Ortells (2014)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We show that the second group of cohomology with compact supports is nontrivial for three-dimensional systolic pseudomanifolds. It follows that groups acting geometrically on such spaces are not Poincaré duality groups.

Line bundles with c 1 L 2 = 0 . A six dimensional example

Stefano De Michelis (1991)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

We exhibit a six dimensional manifold with a line bundle on it which is not the pullback of a bundle on S 2 .

Line bundles with c 1 L 2 = 0 . Higher order obstruction

Stefano De Michelis (1991)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

We study secondary obstructions to representing a line bundle as the pull-back of a line bundle on S 2 and we interpret them geometrically.
