Cohomology of configuration spaces on punctured varieties

Yifeng Huang

Abstract

In the theory of configuration spaces, "splitting" usually refers to the phenomenon that the configuration spaces on a manifold and those on its punctured version are closely related cohomologically. We prove a splitting theorem that is equivariant and mixed-Hodge-theoretic; both are new features in such results. As an application, we determine the generating function for the mixed Hodge numbers of the unordered configuration spaces of a multi-punctured elliptic curve.

Key Result

Theorem \oldthetheorem

Let $Y$ be a possibly punctured non-compact pure variety of complex dimension $d$. Then for $p,q,i\geq 0$ and $P\in Y$, where the summand is zero if any of $p-kd,q-kd,i-k(2d-1),n-k$ is negative.
