Local proof of Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch theorem
There is a theorem by Feigin and Tsygan(Theorem 1.3.3 here) which they call "Riemann-Roch" theorem.
Given a smooth morphism $f:S\to N$ of relative dimension $n$ and a vector bundle $E/S$ of ...

What is a "block" in an abelian category?
In the literature and in some posts here, there has been variation in the undefined use of the term "block" for a category of modules over a ring, or more abstractly an abelian category (all of which ...

Confusion about Subcategories of Category $\mathcal{O}$
So, in learning about category $\mathcal{O}$ representations of a semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, I've come across two natural kinds of subcategories, and I think I'm confused about their ...

Whitehead lemmas in Lie algebra cohomology for non-algebraically closed fields
I read in Weibel's homological algebra that Whitehead's first and second lemmas are true for any characteristic 0 field. I mean the following:
Whitehead Lemma(s): Let g be a semisimple Lie algebra ...

When is an algebra derived indecomposable?
Call a finite dimensional (acyclic) quiver $K$-algebra A derived indecomposable in case $A$ is not derived equivalent to an algebra of the form $B \otimes_K C$.
For example when the number of simples ...

How to define cohomology of algebraic structures?
I learned that the Hochschild cohomology of an associative algebra $A$ with a bimodule $M$ is defined using the cochain
\begin{align*}
\cdots \rightarrow C^n(A,M) \stackrel{d^n}{\longrightarrow} C^{n+...

Coinduced modules in the BGG category $\mathcal O$ over complex semisimple Lie algebras
For a given finite-dimensional complex semisimple Lie algebera $\mathfrak g$, we fix Cartan $\mathfrak h$ and Borel subalgebras $\mathfrak b$, then we have the BGG category $\mathcal O$. As usual, we ...

Equivalence between blocks of BGG categories $\mathcal{O}$ which does not preserve highest weight structure
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a finite-dimensional (complex) semisimple Lie algebra. Then we denote the BGG category for $\mathfrak{g}$ by $\mathcal{O}$ as usual. It is well-known that $\mathcal{O}$ as well ...
