Equivariant discrete Morse theory
In this paper, we study Forman's discrete Morse theory in the case where a group acts on the underlying complex. We generalize the notion of a Morse matching, and obtain a theory that can be used to simplify the description of the G-homotopy type of a simplicial complex. As an application, we determine the C2 × Sn−2-homotopy type of the complex of non-connected graphs on n nodes.
متن کاملSurjectivity for Hamiltonian G-spaces in K-theory
Let G be a compact connected Lie group, and (M,ω) a Hamiltonian G-space with proper moment map μ. We give a surjectivity result which expresses the K-theory of the symplectic quotient M//G in terms of the equivariant K-theory of the original manifold M , under certain technical conditions on μ. This result is a natural K-theoretic analogue of the Kirwan surjectivity theorem in symplectic geomet...
متن کاملEquivariant Morse Theory and Quantum Integrability
We investigate an equivariant generalization of Morse theory for a general class of integrable models. In particular, we derive equivariant versions of the classical Poincaré-Hopf and Gauss-Bonnet-Chern theorems and present the corresponding path integral generalizations. Our approach is based on equivariant cohomology and localization techniques, and is closely related to the formalism develop...
متن کاملEquivariant K-theory
Topological K-theory [2] has many variants which have been developed and exploited for geometric purposes. There are real or quaternionic versions, “Real” K-theory in the sense of [1], equivariant K-theory [14] and combinations of all these. In recent years K-theory has found unexpected application in the physics of string theories [6, 12, 13, 16] and all variants of K-theory that had previousl...
متن کاملEquivariant Representable K-theory
We interpret certain equivariant Kasparov groups as equivariant representable K-theory groups. We compute these groups via a classifying space and as K-theory groups of suitable σ-C-algebras. We also relate equivariant vector bundles to these σ-C-algebras and provide sufficient conditions for equivariant vector bundles to generate representable K-theory. Mostly we work in the generality of loca...
