Holonomy, twisting cochains and characteristic classes
This paper contains a description of various geometric constructions associated with fibre bundles, given in terms of important algebraic object, the “twisting cochain". Our examples include the Chern-Weil classes, the holonomy representation and the so-called cyclic Chern character of Bismut and others (see [2, 11, 27]), also called the Bismut’s class. The later example is the principal one for us, since we are motivated by the attempt to find an algebraic approach to the Witten’s index formula....
Homotopy invariance of higher signatures and -manifold groups
For closed oriented manifolds, we establish oriented homotopy invariance of higher signatures that come from the fundamental group of a large class of orientable -manifolds, including the “piecewise geometric” ones in the sense of Thurston. In particular, this class, that will be carefully described, is the class of all orientable -manifolds if the Thurston Geometrization Conjecture is true. In fact, for this type of groups, we show that the Baum-Connes Conjecture With Coefficients holds. The...
