States in the absolute (semi-relative) cohomology but not in the relative cohomology are examined through the component decomposition of the string field theory action for the 2-D string. It is found that they are auxiliary fields without kinetic terms, but are important for instance in the master equation for the Ward-Takahashi identities. The ghost structure is analyzed in the Siegel gauge, b...

The relative Dolbeault cohomology which naturally comes up in the theory of Čech–Dolbeault turns out to be canonically isomorphic with local (relative) Grothendieck and Sato so that it provides a handy way representing latter. In this paper we use give simple explicit expressions hyperfunctions, some fundamental operations on them related duality theorems. This approach also yields new insight ...

Let A be a Banach algebra, not necessarily unital, and let B be a closed subalgebra of A. We establish a connection between the Banach cyclic cohomology group HC(A) of A and the Banach B-relative cyclic cohomology group HCnB(A) of A. We prove that, for a Banach algebra A with a bounded approximate identity and an amenable closed subalgebra B of A, up to topological isomorphism, HC(A) = HCnB(A) ...

Let Γ be a finitely generated group and Γ′ = {Γi | i ∈ I} be a family of its subgroups. We utilize the notion of tuple (Γ,Γ′, X,V ′) that makes the statements and arguments for the pair (Γ,Γ′) parallel to the non-relative case, and define the snake metric dς on the set of edges of a simplicial complex. The language of tuples and snake metrics seems to be convenient for dealing with relative hyp...
