چکیده

For an equivariant Morse stratification which contains a unique open stratum, we introduce the notion of equivariant antiperfection, which means the difference of the equivariant Morse series and the equivariant Poincaré series achieves the maximal possible value (instead of the minimal possible value 0 in the equivariantly perfect case). We also introduce a weaker condition of local equivariant antiperfection. We prove that the Morse stratification of the Yang-Mills functional on the space of connections on a principal G-bundle over a connected, closed, nonorientable surface Σ is locally equivariantly Q-antiperfect when G = U(2), SU(2), U(3), SU(3); we propose that the Morse stratification is actually equivariantly Q-antiperfect in these cases. Our proposal yields formulas of Poincaré series P t (Hom(π1(Σ), G);Q) when G = U(2), SU(2), U(3), SU(3). Our U(2), SU(2) formulas agree with formulas proved by T. Baird, who also verified our conjectural U(3) formula.

Yang-mills Connections on Nonorientable Surfaces Nan-kuo Ho and Chiu-chu

In [AB], Atiyah and Bott studied Yang-Mills functional over a Riemann surface from the point of view of Morse theory. We generalize their study to all closed, compact, connected, possibly nonorientable surfaces.

Yang-mills Connections on Orientable and Nonorientable Surfaces Nan-kuo Ho and Chiu-chu

In [HL4] we study Yang-Mills functional on the space of connections on a principal GR-bundle over a closed, connected, nonorientable surface, where GR is any compact connected Lie group. In this sequel, we generalize the discussion in [AB] and [HL4]. We obtain explicit descriptions (as representation varieties) of Morse strata of Yang-Mills functional on orientable and nonorientable surfaces fo...

Connected Components of the Space of Surface Group Representations Nan-kuo Ho and Chiu-chu

Let G be a connected, compact, semisimple Lie group. It is known that for a compact closed orientable surface Σ of genus l > 1, the order of the group H(Σ, π1(G)) is equal to the number of connected components of the space Hom(π1(Σ), G)/G which can also be identified with the moduli space of gauge equivalence classes of flat G-bundles over Σ. We show that the same statement for a closed compact...

Connected Components of Spaces of Surface Group Representations Ii Nan-kuo Ho and Chiu-chu

In [HL1], we discussed the connected components of the space of surface group representations for any compact connected semisimple Lie group and any closed compact (orientable or nonorientable) surface. In this sequel, we generalize the results in [HL1] in two directions: we consider general compact connected Lie groups, and we consider all compact surfaces, including the ones with boundaries. ...

On the Connectedness of Moduli Spaces of Flat Connections over Compact Surfaces Nan-kuo Ho and Chiu-chu

We know that there is an isomorphism between the moduli space of gauge equivalence classes of flat G-connections on a compact surface and the moduli space of representations from the fundamental group of the surface to G acted on by the adjoint action (cf: Goldman[G]). It is known that if G is compact, semi-simple and simply connected, the moduli space of gauge equivalence classes of flat G-con...
