Computing intersection numbers of Chern classes

چکیده
Let Z ⊂ Pr be a smooth variety of dimension n and let c0, . . . , cn be the Chern classes of Z. We present an algorithm to compute the degree of any monomial in {c0, . . . , cn}. The method is based on intersection theory and may be implemented as a numeric or as a symbolic algorithm.

Chern numbers of smooth varieties via homotopy continuation and intersection theory
Homotopy continuation provides a numerical tool for computing the equivalence of a smooth variety in an intersection product. Intersection theory provides a theoretical tool for relating the equivalence of a smooth variety in an intersection product to the degrees of the Chern classes of the variety. A combination of these tools leads to a numerical method for computing the degrees of Chern cla...
متن کامل4 J an 2 00 6 Intersection numbers with Witten ’ s top Chern class Sergei Shadrin
Witten’s top Chern class is a particular cohomology class on the moduli space of Riemann surfaces endowed with r-spin structures. It plays a key role in Witten’s conjecture relating to the intersection theory on these moduli spaces. Our first goal is to compute the integral of Witten’s class over the so-called double ramification cycles in genus 1. We obtain a simple closed formula for these in...
متن کاملChern classes and Characteristic Cycles of Determinantal Varieties
Let K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. For m ≥ n, we define τm,n,k to be the set of m× n matrices over K with kernel dimension ≥ k. This is a projective subvariety of Pmn−1, and is called the (generic) determinantal variety. In most cases τm,n,k is singular with singular locus τm,n,k+1. In this paper we give explicit formulas computing the Chern-Mather class (cM ) and the C...
متن کاملOn Generalized Sethi-vafa-witten Formulas
We present a formula for computing proper pushforwards of classes in the Chow ring of a projective bundle under the projection π : P(E )→ B, for B a non-singular compact complex algebraic variety of any dimension. Our formula readily produces generalizations of formulas derived by Sethi,Vafa, and Witten to compute the Euler characteristic of elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau fourfolds used for F-...
متن کاملIntersection numbers with Witten’s top Chern class
The first conjecture involves moduli spaces of stable curves and certain 2-cohomology classes on them, called –classes. The intersection numbers of powers of the – classes can be arranged into a generating series that is claimed to be a solution of the Korteweg–de Vries (or KdV) hierarchy of partial differential equations. This conjecture was first proved by M Kontsevich in [12]. At present the...
