Topologically Invariant Chern Numbers of Projective Varieties
We prove that a rational linear combination of Chern numbers is an oriented diffeomorphism invariant of smooth complex projective varieties if and only if it is a linear combination of the Euler and Pontryagin numbers. In dimension at least three we prove that only multiples of the top Chern number, which is the Euler characteristic, are invariant under diffeomorphisms that are not necessarily ...
متن کاملQuantum spin-Hall effect and topologically invariant Chern numbers.
We present a topological description of the quantum spin-Hall effect (QSHE) in a two-dimensional electron system on a honeycomb lattice with both intrinsic and Rashba spin-orbit couplings. We show that the topology of the band insulator can be characterized by a 2 x 2 matrix of first Chern integers. The nontrivial QSHE phase is identified by the nonzero diagonal matrix elements of the Chern num...
متن کاملChern Numbers and Diffeomorphism Types of Projective Varieties
In 1954 Hirzebruch asked which linear combinations of Chern numbers are topological invariants of smooth complex projective varieties. We give a complete answer to this question in small dimensions, and also prove partial results without restrictions on the dimension.
متن کاملGeometric invariant theory and projective toric varieties
We define projective GIT quotients, and introduce toric varieties from this perspective. We illustrate the definitions by exploring the relationship between toric varieties and polyhedra. Geometric invariant theory (GIT) is a theory of quotients in the category of algebraic varieties. Let X be a projective variety with ample line bundle L, and G an algebraic group acting on X, along with a lift...
متن کاملProjective varieties invariant by one - dimensional foliations
This work concerns the problem of relating characteristic numbers of onedimensional holomorphic foliations of PC to those of algebraic varieties invariant by them. More precisely: if M is a connected complex manifold, a one-dimensional holomorphic foliation F of M is a morphism Φ : L −→ TM where L is a holomorphic line bundle on M . The singular set of F is the analytic subvariety sing(F) = {p ...
