Relative Chern Characters for Nilpotent Ideals
which is defined only when I is nilpotent and Q ⊂ A. Goodwillie showed that (1.2) is an isomorphism whenever it is defined, and that it coincides with (1.1) when I = 0. Using this and a 5-Lemma argument, he deduced that (1.1) is an isomorphism for any nilpotent I. The question of whether ch∗ and ch ′ ∗ agree for general nilpotent ideals I was left open in [4], and announced without proof in [7,...
متن کاملDifferential Characters and Geometric Invariants
This paper first appeared in a collection of lecture notes which were distributed at the A.M.S. Summer Institute on Differential Geometry, held at Stanford in 1973. Since then it has been (and remains) the authors' intention to make available a more detailed version. But, in the mean time, we continued to receive requests for the original notes. Moreover, the secondary invariants we discussed h...
متن کاملSocial enrichment by virtual characters - differential benefits
It is frequently held forth, within the area of virtual pedagogical characters, that such characters are beneficial for learning as they strengthen the social dimension of electronic learning environments. This article presents more details on this proposal together with a survey of corresponding empirical evidence. In addition, materials from a recently conducted empirical study are presented....
متن کاملLefschetz-Pontrjagin Duality for Differential Characters
A theory of di erential characters is developed for manifolds with boundary. This is done from both the Cheeger-Simons and the deRham-Federer viewpoints. The central result of the paper is the formulation and proof of a Lefschetz-Pontrjagin Duality Theorem, which asserts that the pairing c IHk(X; @X) c IHn k 1(X) ! S1 given by ( ; ) 7! ( ) [X] induces isomorphisms D : c IHk(X; @X)! Hom1(c IHn k...
متن کاملDifferential Characters as Stacks and Prequantization
We generalize geometric prequantization of symplectic manifolds to differentiable stacks. Our approach is atlas-independent and provides a bijection between isomorphism classes of principal S-bundles (with or without connections) and second cohomology groups of certain chain complexes.
