Damien Gaboriau a montré récemment que les nombres de Betti des feuilletages mesurés à feuilles contractiles sont des invariants de la relation d’équivalence associée. Sorin Popa a utilisé ce résultat joint à des propriétés de rigidité des facteurs de type II pour en déduire l’existence de facteurs de type II dont le groupe fondamental est trivial.
Let be a dg algebra over and let be a dg -bimodule. We show that under certain technical hypotheses on , a noncommutative analog of the Hodge-to-de Rham spectral sequence starts at the Hochschild homology of the derived tensor product and converges to the Hochschild homology of . We apply this result to bordered Heegaard Floer theory, giving spectral sequences associated to Heegaard Floer homology groups of certain branched and unbranched double covers.
The Evens-Lu-Weinstein representation (Q A, D) for a Lie algebroid A on a manifold M is studied in the transitive case. To consider at the same time non-oriented manifolds as well, this representation is slightly modified to (Q Aor, Dor) by tensoring by orientation flat line bundle, Q Aor=QA⊗or (M) and D or=D⊗∂Aor. It is shown that the induced cohomology pairing is nondegenerate and that the representation (Q Aor, Dor) is the unique (up to isomorphy) line representation for which the top group of...
Each Lie algebra of vector fields (e.g. those which are tangent to a foliation) of a smooth manifold définies, in a natural way, a spectral sequence which converges to the de Rham cohomology of in a finite number of steps. We prove e.g. that for all there exists a foliated compact manifold with infinite dimensional.
