Sums of Betti numbers in arbitrary characteristic Nicholas M. Katz Introduction In [Mil], Milnor gave an explicit upper bound for the sum of the Betti numbers of a complex affine algebraic variety V. If V is defined in ^N, N ≥ 1, by r ≥ 1 equations Fi, i =1 to r, all of degree ≤ d, Milnor showed ‡i h i(V, $) ≤ d(2d-1)2N-1. Oleinik [Ol] and Thom [Th] gave similar results. It is standard (cf. the...
متن کاملThe First L-betti Number and Approximation in Arbitrary Characteristic
Let G be a finitely generated group and G = G0 ⊇ G1 ⊇ G2 ⊇ · · · a descending chain of finite index normal subgroups of G. Given a field K, we consider the sequence b1(Gi;K) [G:Gi] of normalized first Betti numbers of Gi with coefficients in K, which we call a K-approximation for b (2) 1 (G), the first L2-Betti number of G. In this paper we address the questions of when Qapproximation and Fp-ap...
متن کاملL-Betti numbers and their analogues in positive characteristic
In this article, we give a survey of results on L2-Betti numbers and their analogues in positive characteristic. The main emphasis is made on the Lück approximation conjecture and the strong Atiyah conjecture.
متن کاملCharacteristic-independence of Betti numbers of graph ideals
In this paper we study the Betti numbers of Stanley-Reisner ideals generated in degree 2. We show that the first six Betti numbers do not depend on the characteristic of the ground field. We also show that, if the number of variables n is at most 10, all Betti numbers are independent of the ground field. For n = 11, there exists precisely 4 examples in which the Betti numbers depend on the grou...
متن کاملCharacteristic Varieties and Betti Numbers of Free Abelian Covers
The regular Z-covers of a finite cell complex X are parameterized by the Grassmannian of r-planes in H(X,Q). Moving about this variety, and recording when the Betti numbers b1, . . . , bi of the corresponding covers are finite carves out certain subsets Ωr(X) of the Grassmannian. We present here a method, essentially going back to Dwyer and Fried, for computing these sets in terms of the jump l...
