Non-commutative Reidemeister Torsion and Morse-novikov Theory
Given a circle-valued Morse function of a closed oriented manifold, we prove that Reidemeister torsion over a non-commutative formal Laurent polynomial ring equals the product of a certain non-commutative Lefschetz-type zeta function and the algebraic torsion of the Novikov complex over the ring. This paper gives a non-commutative generalization of the result of Hutchings-Lee on the abelian set...
متن کاملNon-commutative Bloch Theory
For differential operators which are invariant under the action of an abelian group Bloch theory is the preferred tool to analyze spectral properties. By shedding some new non-commutative light on this we motivate the introduction of a non-commutative Bloch theory for elliptic operators on Hilbert C-modules. It relates properties of C-algebras to spectral properties of module operators such as ...
متن کاملNon–commutative Multivariable Reidemeister Torsion and the Thurston Norm
Given a 3–manifold the second author defined functions δn : H (M ;Z) → N, generalizing McMullen’s Alexander norm, which give lower bounds on the Thurston norm. We reformulate these invariants in terms of Reidemeister torsion over a non– commutative multivariable Laurent polynomial ring. This allows us to show that these functions are semi-norms.
متن کاملCommutative Subgroups and Torsion in Compact Lie Groups
In this note, G is a compact connected Lie group. We are concerned with the torsion of the cohomology ring H*(G; Z) of G over the integers, certain commutative subgroups of G, and relations between these two questions. NOTATION. E(mi, • • • , mr) or £ A ( ^ I , • • • , mr) denotes the exterior algebra over the ring A of a free .4-module with r generators of respective degrees wi, • • • , mr; p ...
متن کاملK-Theory Torsion
The Chern isomorphism determines the free part of the K-groups from ordinary cohomology. Thus to really understand the implications of K-theory for physics one must look at manifolds with K-torsion. Unfortunately there are not many explicit examples, and usually for very symmetric spaces. Cartesian products of RPn are examples where the order of the torsion part differs between K-theory and ord...
