| Piecewise polynomials and the equivariant cohomology of weighted projective spaces |
|
Abstract:
A report of joint work with Matthias Franz and Nigel Ray.
As toric varieties, weighted projective spaces have a natural torus action. We describe the integral
equivariant cohomology ring, with respect to this action, in terms of piecewise polynomial functions
on the underlying fan. Unlike the ordinary integral cohomology, this ring distinguishes among
weighted projective spaces.
