We offer a new approach to a definition of an equivariant version of the Poincaré series. This Poincaré series is defined not as a power series, but as an element of the Grothendieck ring of $G$-sets with an additional structure. We compute this Poincaré series for natural filtrations on the ring of germs of functions on the plane $(\C^2,0)$ with a finite group representation.
We first show the existence of a weight filtration on the equivariant cohomology of real algebraic varieties equipped with the action of a finite group, by applying group cohomology to the dual geometric filtration. We then prove the compatibility of the equivariant weight filtrations and spectral sequences with K{ü}nneth isomorphism, cup and cap products, from the filtered chain level. We finally induce the usual formulae for the equivariant cup and cap products from their analogs on the non-equivariant weight spectral sequences.
In this survey one discusses the notion of the Poincaré series of multi-index filtrations, an alternative approach to the definition, a method of computation of the Poincaré series based on the notion of integration with respect to the Euler characteristic (or rather on an infinite-dimensional version of it), generalizations of the notion of the multi-variable Poincaré series based on the notion of the motivic integration, and relations of the latter ones with some zeta functions over finite fields and with generating series of Heegaard-Floer homologies of algebraic links.
We show the existence of an equivariant weight filtration on the equivariant homology of real algebraic varieties equipped with a finite group action, by applying group homology onto the weight complex of McCrory and Parusiński. The group action enriches the information contained in the induced equivariant weight spectral sequence from which we can not extract finite additivity directly if the group is of even order. Still, we manage to construct additive invariants from its elementary bricks, and prove that they are induced from the very equivariant geometry of real algebraic varieties with a…
The equivariant with respect to a finite group action Poincaré series of a collection of $r$ valuations was defined earlier as a power series in $r$ variables with the coefficients from a modification of the Burnside ring of the group. Here we show that (modulo simple exceptions) the equivariant Poincaré series determines the equivariant topology of the collection of valuations.
Let $G/H$ be a homogeneous variety, and let $X$ be a $G$-equivariant embedding of $G/H$such that the number of $G$-orbits in $X$ is finite. We show that the equivariant Borel-Moore homology of $X$ has a filtration with associated graded module the direct sum of the equivariant Borel-Moore homologies of the $G$-orbits. If $T$ is a maximal torus of $G$ such that each $G$-orbit has a $T$-fixed point, then the equivariant filtration descends to give a filtration on the ordinary Borel-Moore homology of $X$. We apply our findings to certain wonderful compactifications as well as to double flag varie…
We identify the equivariant structure of the filtered pieces of the motivic filtration defined by Bhatt, Morrow and Scholze on the topological Hochschild cohomology spectrum of polynomial algebras over $\mathbb{F}_p$.
Using a recent result by S. Papadima and A. Suciu, we show that the equivariant Poincaré-Deligne polynomial of the Milnor fiber of a projective line arrangement having only double and triple points is combinatorially determined.
Let $k$ be a field with a real embedding. We compare the motivic slice filtration of a motivic spectrum over $Spec(k)$ with the $C_2$-equivariant slice filtration of its equivariant Betti realization, giving conditions under which realization induces an equivalence between the associated slice towers. In particular, we show that, up to reindexing, the towers agree for all spectra obtained from localized quotients of $MGL$ and $MR$, and for motivic Landweber exact spectra and their realizations. As a consequence, we deduce that equivariant spectra obtained from localized quotients of $MR$ are e…
We target multivariable series associated with resolutions of complex analytic normal surface singularities. In general, the equivariant multivariable analytical and topological Poincaré series are well-defined and have good properties only if the link is a rational homology sphere. We wish to create a model when this assumption is not valid: we analyse the case of cusps. For such germs we define even the motivic versions of these two series, we prove that they are equal, and we provide explicit combinatorial expression for them. This is done via a motivic multivariable series associated with …
We provide an explicit presentation of the equivariant cohomology ring of the compactified Jacobian $J_{q/p}$ of the rational curve $C_{q/p}$ with planar equation $x^{q}=y^{p}$ for $(p,q)=1$. We also prove analogous results for the closely related affine Springer fiber $Sp_{q/p}$ in the affine flag variety of $SL_{p}$. We show that the perverse filtration on the cohomology of $J_{q/p}$ is multiplicative, and the associated graded ring under the perverse filtration is a degeneration of the ring of functions on a moduli space of maps $\mathbb{P}^{1}\to C_{q/p}$. We also propose several conjectur…
We construct a non-normal affine monoid together with its modules associated with a negative definite plumbed $3$-manifold $M$. In terms of their structure, we describe the $H_1(M,\mathbb{Z})$-equivariant parts of the topological Poincaré series. In particular, we give combinatorial formulas for the Seiberg--Witten invariants of $M$ and for polynomial generalizations defined in a previous paper of the authors.
Motivated by work of Gusein-Zade, Luengo, and Melle-Hernández, we study a specific generating series of arm and leg statistics on partitions, which is known to compute the Poincaré polynomials of Z_3-equivariant Hilbert schemes of points in the plane, where Z_3 acts diagonally. This generating series has a conjectural product formula, a proof of which has remained elusive over the last ten years. We introduce a new combinatorial correspondence between partitions of n and {1,2}-compositions of n, which behaves well with respect to the statistic in question. As an application, we use this corres…
Let $n$ be a positive integer. The main result of this manuscript is a construction of a filtration on the cohomology ring of a regular nilpotent Hessenberg variety in $GL(n,{\mathbb{C}})/B$ such that its associated graded ring has graded pieces (i.e., homogeneous components) isomorphic to rings which are related to the cohomology rings of Hessenberg varieties in $GL(n-1,{\mathbb{C}})/B$, showing the inductive nature of these rings. In previous work, the first two authors, together with Abe and Masuda, gave an explicit presentation of these cohomology rings in terms of generators and relations…
