Generalized Chern–Pontryagin models

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields
We formulate a new class of modified gravity models, that is, generalized four-dimensional Chern–Pontryagin models, whose action is characterized by an arbitrary function of the Ricci scalar R and the Chern–Pontryagin topological term $$ ^*RR$$ ∗ R R , i.

Effective theories for 2+1 dimensional non-Abelian topological spin liquids

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2017
In this work we propose an effective low-energy theory for a large class of 2+1 dimensional non-Abelian topological spin liquids whose edge states are conformal degrees of freedom with central charges corresponding to the coset structure su(2) k ⊕ su(2 ...

Chern classes in precobordism theories

open access: yesJournal of the European Mathematical Society, 2022
We construct Chern classes of vector bundles in the universal precobordism theory of Annala–Yokura over an arbitrary Noetherian base ring of finite Krull dimension. As an immediate corollary, we show that the Grothendieck ring of vector bundles can be recovered from the universal precobordism ring, and that we can construct candidates for Chow rings ...

Chern classes of birational varieties

open access: yesarXiv: Algebraic Geometry, 2004
A theorem of Batyrev's asserts that if two nonsingular varieties V,W are birational, and their canonical bundles agree after pull-back to a resolution of indeterminacies of a birational map between them, then the Betti numbers of V and W coincide. We prove that, in the same hypotheses, the total homology Chern classes of V and W are push-forwards of ...

On Chern Classes of Representations of Finite Groups [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the London Mathematical Society, 1965
(cf. [8], say). Atiyah [ l ] posed the problem of relating the Chern classes of i{K with those of X, for any representation X of H. The purpose of this note is to announce the proof of a conjecture of J. F. Adams which gives some information in this direction; the main idea of the proof was suggested to me by Professor Adams, and is believed to emanate

Ground states of Class S $$ \mathcal{S} $$ theory on ADE singularities and dual Chern-Simons theory

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
In radial quantization, the ground states of a gauge theory on ADE singularities ℝ4 /Γ are characterized by flat connections that are maps from Γ to the gauge group.
