Local invariant cycle theorem

In mathematics, the local invariant cycle theorem was originally a conjecture of Griffiths which states that, given a surjective proper map from a Kähler manifold to the unit disk that has maximal rank everywhere except over 0, each cohomology class on is the restriction of some cohomology class on the entire if the cohomology class is invariant under a circle action (monodromy action); in short, is surjective. The conjecture was first proved by Clemens. The theorem is also a consequence of the BBD decomposition. Deligne also proved the following. Given a proper morphism over the spectrum of the henselization of , an algebraically closed field, if is essentially smooth over and smooth over , then the homomorphism on -cohomology: is surjective, where are the special and generic points and the homomorphism is the composition (Wikipedia).

Eva Gallardo Gutiérrez: The invariant subspace problem: a concrete operator theory approach

Abstract: The Invariant Subspace Problem for (separable) Hilbert spaces is a long-standing open question that traces back to Jonhn Von Neumann's works in the fifties asking, in particular, if every bounded linear operator acting on an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space has a non-

Nicolò Zava (3/17/23): Every stable invariant of finite metric spaces produces false positives

In computational topology and geometry, the Gromov-Hausdorff distance between metric spaces provides a theoretical framework to tackle the problem of shape recognition and comparison. However, the direct computation of the Gromov-Hausdorff distance between finite metric spaces is known to

Bertrand Eynard - An overview of the topological recursion

The "topological recursion" defines a double family of "invariants" $W_{g,n}$ associated to a "spectral curve" (which we shall define). The invariants $W_{g,n}$ are meromorphic $n$-forms defined by a universal recursion relation on $|\chi|=2g-2+n$, the initial terms $W_{0,1}$
