How statement and proof provenance work

The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.

  • Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
  • AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
  • AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.

These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.

Noncompact localization with a proper fixed locus

Statement

Let T=(C×)r, r≥0, act algebraically on a smooth separated finite-type complex variety X of pure complex dimension d. Assume X has a finite T-invariant affine open cover and that its fixed-point subscheme F=XT is proper. Use Borel equivariant cohomology HTq(X;Q)=Hq(EK×KX;Q) and the normalized Borel–Moore groups whose smooth d-dimensional fundamental class has degree 2d. Let χi be the coordinate characters, ui=c1(Lχi∣K), and uχ=∑iniui for χ(t1,…,tr)=∏itini. The multiplicative set ST is generated by uχ for all nontrivial characters. Throughout, ST−1HjBM,T(Y;Q) denotes HjT(Y), the degree-j piece of the localization of the total graded module, and localized cap products act on that total module. Write F=∐aFa for its finitely many connected components, ia:Fa↪X for their inclusions, da=dim⁡CFa, ca=d−da, and νa=TX∣Fa/TFa. Each pa:Fa→pt is proper. The localized pushforward is p∗loc=pF∗∘(i∗)−1, where i∗=∑aia∗ is the localized fixed-inclusion isomorphism and pF:F→pt is proper. For every homogeneous α∈HTq(X;Q), it satisfies p∗loc(α∩[X]T)=∑apa∗(ia∗αeT(νa)∩[Fa]T)in ST−1H2d−qBM,T(pt;Q), where pa:Fa→pt is proper, eT(νa) is the zero-section Euler class with complex orientation, [X]T and [Fa]T are the complex-oriented fundamental classes, and division means multiplication by the localized inverse of eT(νa). If X→pt is proper, p∗loc equals the genuine proper pushforward. The construction is independent of the chosen finite invariant affine cover and is compatible with proper equivariant maps between such smooth varieties with proper fixed loci. For finite F, the formula is the finite reciprocal-Euler sum; if F=∅, both sides are zero. A component with ca=0 has denominator 1. Each term has degree 2d−q, since eT(νa) has degree 2ca and [Fa]T has degree 2da.

Proof

Given: The data in the Statement.

1.1A1F1F2given

The map i:F↪X, its components ia, and the localized groups are intrinsic; the finite affine cover is only a hypothesis used to prove [F2]. Since i∗ is the same canonical proper pushforward for every such cover, its inverse is unique. Therefore the definition p∗loc=pF∗(i∗)−1 is independent of the cover.

2.1F1F2F4step 1.1

Let f:X→Y be a proper T-equivariant map between smooth separated finite-type varieties with finite invariant affine covers and proper fixed loci FX,FY. Its restriction fT:FX→FY is proper, and the square formed by iX,iY,fT,f commutes because f sends fixed points to fixed points. Functoriality of proper Borel–Moore pushforward gives f∗iX∗=iY∗f∗T. After localization both iX∗ and iY∗ are isomorphisms by [F2], so applying their inverses and then the proper traces proves pY∗locf∗=pX∗loc. If X→pt itself is proper, then pF∗=pX∗i∗; composing with i∗−1 proves p∗loc=pX∗.

2.2F1F3F4step 1.1

Let β=(i∗)−1(α∩[X]T). In a tubular neighborhood, the refined Gysin map is cap with the supported complex Thom class followed by restriction to Fa; associativity and naturality of cap therefore give ia!(α∩[X]T)=ia∗α∩ia![X]T=ia∗α∩[Fa]T, using the normalization in [F3]. Since α∩[X]T=i∗β, the self-intersection formula [F3] gives eT(νa)∩βa=ia∗α∩[Fa]T. Properness of Fa makes eT(νa) invertible after localization by [F3], hence βa=(ia∗α/eT(νa))∩[Fa]T. Applying pa∗ and summing the finitely many components yields the displayed formula. The degree is 2d−q: division by the degree-2ca Euler class lowers the localized cohomological degree of the insertion from q to q−2ca, and capping with the degree-2da fundamental class gives 2da−(q−2ca)=2d−q.

3.1F2F3step 2.2∎

If F=∅, [F2] makes the localized Borel–Moore groups of X zero and the component sum is empty. If F is finite, every Fa is a point and eT(νa) is the product of its nonzero tangent-character classes, so each summand is the stated reciprocal-Euler term. If ca=0, the normal bundle is rank zero and its complex-oriented Euler class is 1. These cases agree with the formula and the degree computation above.

Remarks

For a proper equivariant map f:X→Y as in step 2.1, fT:FX→FY is its restriction to the fixed loci, and the fixed-locus square is

The horizontal maps are closed inclusions and the vertical maps are the restrictions of f; step 2.1 proves the induced pushforward identity independently of the diagram.

The theorem applies to a stable ADHM quotient only after its separate mathematical construction proves smoothness, separatedness, a finite invariant word-slice affine cover, and properness of the partition fixed locus. Those ADHM-specific hypotheses are not assumed or proved here; the present result supplies the localization calculation once they are established.
