The cohomology of coalgebras in species

Abstract

Aguiar and Mahajan introduced a cohomology theory for the twisted coalgebras of Joyal, with particular interest in the computation of their second cohomology group, which gives rise to their deformations. We use the Koszul duality theory between twisted algebras and coalgebras on the twisted coalgebra that gives rise to their cohomology theory to give a new alternative description of it which, in particular, allows for its effective computation. We compute it completely in various examples, including those proposed by Aguiar and Mahajan, and obtain structural results: in particular, we study its multiplicative structure and provide a Künneth formula.

p-curvature in non-commutative Hodge theory and the Kontsevich-Soibelman operad

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a differential $\mathbb{Z}/2$-graded category over $\mathbb{C}$. Its periodic cyclic homology $HH^{per}_*(\mathcal{C})$, when viewed as a vector bundle over the formal punctured disk, is equipped with a canonical connection $\nabla^{\mathcal{C}}_{\partial_t}$ called the Getzler-Gauss-Manin connection in the $t$-direction (or the categorical $t$-connection). Our main result is that when $\mathcal{C}$ is smooth and proper, this connection has a regular singularity at $t=0$ and quasi-unipotent monodromy, affirming a conjecture of Katzarkov-Kontsevich-Pantev \cite{KKP}. Our proof follows a reduction mod $p$ argument using a spreading out technique of Toën \cite{To} and a regularity criterion of Katz \cite{Ka1}. The main novelty is the proof of a multiplicative property of the $p$-curvature of $\nabla^{\mathcal{C}}_{\partial_t}$ through an interpretation in terms of the two-colored Kontsevich-Soibelman operad. We then explore two applications of the main result. First, we give an explicit description (under additional assumptions) of the non-commutative Hodge filtration on the periodic cyclic homology of a smooth proper d$(\mathbb{Z}/2)$g category, following a construction of Shklyarov \cite{Shk}. The second application, which is special to our particular method or proof, is an upper bound on the sizes of Jordan blocks of the monodromy of $\nabla^{\mathcal{C}}_{\partial_t}$, which simultaneously generalizes Scherk's local monodromy theorem for isolated hypersurface singularities \cite{Sche} and (partially) a recent result of Pomerleano-Seidel on the quantum connection of a closed monotone symplectic manifold \cite{PS2}. As a specialization, we show that the sizes of these Jordan blocks are bounded above by the diagonal dimension of $\mathcal{C}$ plus one.

General linear and Steinberg groups over the Leavitt algebra $L_{\mathbb F_2}(1,2)$

Let $R=L_{\F_2}(1,2)$. We prove that $\GL_r(R)$ is integrally acyclic for every $r\geq1$ and that the canonical map $\St_r(R)\to\GL_r(R)$ is an isomorphism for every $r\geq3$. The unit group $R^\times$ is finitely presented, and we describe an explicit finite presentation. The homology calculation uses leaf coordinates, simultaneous extensions of ordered frames, and finite-field actions on stabilizers. The Steinberg argument lifts relations from a simply connected frame complex and refines coordinates. We also state separate criteria for the two arguments over rings of characteristic two.
