The purpose of this paper is twofold: first, we extend Saito's filtration on Chow groups, which is a candidate for the conjectural Bloch Beilinson filtration on the Chow groups of a smooth projective variety, from Chow groups to the bivariant Chow groups. In order to do this, we construct cycle class maps from the bivariant Chow groups to bivariant cohomology groups. Secondly, we use our methods to define a bivariant version of Bloch's higher Chow groups. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
In this paper we define the 1,2-coloured HOMFLY-PT triply graded link homology and prove that it is a link invariant. We also conjecture on how to generalize our construction for arbitrary colours. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
In this paper, we compute the Gerstenhaber bracket on the Hoch-schild cohomology of $C^infty (M)rtimes G$ for a finite group $G$ acting on a compact manifold $M$. Using this computation, we obtain geometric descriptions for all noncommutative Poisson structures on $C^infty (M)rtimes G$ when $M$ is a symplectic manifold. We also discuss examples of deformation quantizations of these noncommutative Poisson structures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
