The Mod 2 Cohomology of Fixed Point Sets of Anti-symplectic Involutions

چکیده
Let M be a compact, connected symplectic manifold with a Hamiltonian action of a compact n-dimensional torus G = Tn. Suppose that σ is an anti-symplectic involution compatible with the G-action. The real locus of M is X, the fixed point set of σ. Duistermaat uses Morse theory to give a description of the ordinary cohomology of X in terms of the cohomology of M . There is a residual GR = (Z/2Z) n action on X, and we can use Duistermaat’s result, as well as some general facts about equivariant cohomology, to prove an equivariant analogue to Duistermaat’s theorem. In some cases, we can also extend theorems of Goresky-Kottwitz-MacPherson and Goldin-Holm to the real locus.

O ct 2 01 4 FLOER TRAJECTORIES AND STABILIZING DIVISORS
We incorporate pearly Floer trajectories into the transversality scheme for pseudoholomorphic maps introduced by Cieliebak-Mohnke [12] and further developed by Ionel-Parker [33], Wendl [59], and Gerstenberger [29]. By choosing generic domain-dependent almost complex structures we obtain zero and onedimensional moduli spaces with the structure of cell complexes with rational fundamental classes....
متن کاملLocalization for Involutions in Floer Cohomology
We consider Lagrangian Floer cohomology for a pair of Lagrangian submanifolds in a symplectic manifold M . Suppose that M carries a symplectic involution, which preserves both submanifolds. Under various topological hypotheses, we prove a localization theorem for Floer cohomology, which implies a Smith-type inequality for the Floer cohomology groups in M and its fixed point set. Two application...
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 کاملNikulin Involutions on K3 Surfaces
We study the maps induced on cohomology by a Nikulin (i.e. a symplectic) involution on a K3 surface. We parametrize the eleven dimensional irreducible components of the moduli space of algebraic K3 surfaces with a Nikulin involution and we give examples of the general K3 surface in various components. We conclude with some remarks on MorrisonNikulin involutions, these are Nikulin involutions wh...
متن کاملRepresentations of the fundamental group of an l-punctured sphere generated by products of Lagrangian involutions
In this paper, we characterize unitary representations of π := π1(S \{s1, . . . , sl}) whose generators u1, . . . , ul (lying in conjugacy classes fixed initially) can be decomposed as products of two Lagrangian involutions uj = σjσj+1 with σl+1 = σ1 . Our main result is that such representations are exactly the elements of the fixed-point set of an anti-symplectic involution defined on the mod...
