Geometric Description of the Connecting Homomorphism for Witt Groups
نویسنده
چکیده
We give a geometric setup in which the connecting homomorphism in the localization long exact sequence for Witt groups decomposes as the pullback to the exceptional fiber of a suitable blow-up followed by a push-forward.

Triangular Witt Groups . Part I : the 12 - Term Localization Exact Sequence
To a short exact sequence of triangulated categories with duality, we associate a long exact sequence of Witt groups. For this, we introduce higher Witt groups in a very algebraic and explicit way. Since those Witt groups are 4-periodic, this long exact sequence reduces to a cyclic 12-term one. Of course, in addition to higher Witt groups, we need to construct connecting homomorphisms, hereafte...
متن کاملWitt Cohomology, Mayer-vietoris, Homotopy Invariance and the Gersten Conjecture
We establish a Mayer-Vietoris long exact sequence for Witt groups of regular schemes. We also establish homotopy invariance for Witt groups of regular schemes. For this, we introduce Witt groups with supports using triangulated categories. Subsequently we use these results to prove the Gersten-Witt Conjecture for semi-local regular rings of geometric type over infinite fields of characteristic ...
متن کاملFrom the Global Signature to Higher Signatures
Let X be an algebraic variety over the field of real numbers R. We use the signature of a quadratic form to produce “higher” global signatures relating the derived Witt groups of X to the singular cohomology of the real points X(R) with integer coefficients. We also study the global signature ring homomorphism and use the powers of the fundamental ideal in the Witt ring to prove an integral ver...
متن کاملRing structures of mod p equivariant cohomology rings and ring homomorphisms between them
In this paper, we consider a class of connected oriented (with respect to Z/p) closed G-manifolds with a non-empty finite fixed point set, each of which is G-equivariantly formal, where G = Z/p and p is an odd prime. Using localization theorem and equivariant index, we give an explicit description of the mod p equivariant cohomology ring of such a G-manifold in terms of algebra. This makes ...
متن کاملOn the centre of two-parameter quantum groups
We describe Poincaré–Birkhoff–Witt bases for the two-parameter quantum groups U = Ur,s(sln) following Kharchenko and show that the positive part of U has the structure of an iterated skew polynomial ring. We define an ad-invariant bilinear form on U , which plays an important role in the construction of central elements. We introduce an analogue of the Harish-Chandra homomorphism and use it to ...
