The decomposition theorem, perverse sheaves and the topology of algebraic maps

M de Cataldo, L Migliorini - Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society, 2009 - ams.org
We give a motivated introduction to the theory of perverse sheaves, culminating in the
decomposition theorem of Beilinson, Bernstein, Deligne and Gabber. A goal of this survey is …

On the Chow theory of projectivizations

Q Jiang - Journal of the Institute of Mathematics of Jussieu, 2023 - cambridge.org
In this paper, we prove a decomposition result for the Chow groups of projectivizations of
coherent sheaves of homological dimension. In this process, we establish the …

On the motive of O'Grady's ten-dimensional hyper-Kähler varieties

S Floccari, L Fu, Z Zhang - Communications in Contemporary …, 2021 - World Scientific
We investigate how the motive of hyper-Kähler varieties is controlled by weight-2 (or surface-
like) motives via tensor operations. In the first part, we study the Voevodsky motive of …

Distinguished cycles on varieties with motive of abelian type and the section property

L Fu, C Vial - arXiv preprint arXiv:1709.05644, 2017 - arxiv.org
A remarkable result of Peter O'Sullivan asserts that the algebra epimorphism from the
rational Chow ring of an abelian variety to its rational Chow ring modulo numerical …

Cohomology of the Hilbert scheme of points on a surface with values in representations of tautological bundles

L Scala - Duke Mathematical Journal, 2009 - projecteuclid.org
Let X [n] be the Hilbert scheme of n points on the smooth quasi-projective surface X, and let
L [n] be the tautological bundle on X [n] naturally associated to the line bundle L on X. As a …

On the interior motive of certain Shimura varieties: the case of Picard surfaces

J Wildeshaus - Manuscripta mathematica, 2015 - Springer
The purpose of this article is to construct a Hecke-equivariant Chow motive whose
realizations equal interior (or intersection) cohomology of Picard surfaces with regular …

The Hodge theory of the Decomposition Theorem (after de Cataldo and Migliorini)

G Williamson - arXiv preprint arXiv:1603.09235, 2016 - arxiv.org
In its simplest form the Decomposition Theorem asserts that the rational intersection
cohomology of a complex projective variety occurs as a summand of the cohomology of any …
