Description for Hypoelliptic Laplacian and Bott-Chern Cohomology
Paperback. This book provides the proof of a complex geometric version of a well-known result in algebraic geometry: the theorem of Riemann-Roch-Grothendieck for proper submersions. It gives an equality of cohomology classes in Bott-Chern cohomology. Series: Progress in Mathematics. Num Pages: 218 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBKJ; PBKS; PBPD. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 12. Weight in Grams: 343.
The book provides the proof of a complex geometric version of a well-known result in algebraic geometry: the theorem of Riemann–Roch–Grothendieck for proper submersions. It gives an equality of cohomology classes in Bott–Chern cohomology, which is a refinement for complex manifolds of de Rham cohomology. When the manifolds are Kähler, our main result is known. A proof can be given using the elliptic Hodge theory of the fibres, its deformation via Quillen's superconnections, and a version in families of the 'fantastic cancellations' of McKean–Singer in local index theory. In the general case, this approach breaks down because the cancellations do ... Read more

About Jean-Michel Bismut
Jean-Michel Bismut is Professor of Mathematics at Université Paris-Sud (Orsay) and a member of the Académie des Sciences. Starting with a background in probability, he has worked extensively on index theory. With Gillet, Soulé, and Lebeau, he contributed to the proof of a theorem of Riemann–Roch–Grothendieck in Arakelov geometry. More recently, he has developed a theory of the hypoelliptic Laplacian, a ... Read more
