DoesHas anyone have read theirAtiyah and Bott's famous paper'thepaper "The moment map and equivariant cohomology'.cohomology"?
I have some trouble . INwith the original paper page 13,the equalitiesequaations appearing between equations (4.18)and and (4.19) is $D\lambda a=D(a-i(X)a\theta)=da-i(X)da \theta + i(X)au$ , iin page 13 of the original paper. The paper claims $$D\lambda a = D(a-i(X)a\theta) = da-i(X)da \theta + i(X)au,$$ whereas I think itthat it should be $D\lambda a=D(a-i(X)a\theta)=da+i(X)da\theta + i(X)au$ where $$D\lambda a=D(a-i(X)a\theta)=da+i(X)da\theta + i(X)au,$$ where the minus sign is killed by $\mathcal{L}(X)=i(X)d+di(X)$due to , any one can$\mathcal{L}(X)a=i(X)da+di(X)a = 0$.
Can anyone tell me what it should be ,thank?
Thank you!
