  text: "An action of a complex reductive group G on a smooth projective variety X
    is regular when all regular unipotent elements in G act with finitely many fixed
    points. Then the complex G\r\n-equivariant cohomology ring of X is isomorphic
    to the coordinate ring of a certain regular fixed point scheme. Examples include
    partial flag varieties, smooth Schubert varieties and Bott-Samelson varieties.
    We also show that a more general version of the fixed point scheme allows a generalisation
    to GKM spaces, such as toric varieties."

  text: "This dissertation is the summary of the author’s work, concerning the relations
    between\r\ncohomology rings of algebraic varieties and rings of functions on zero
    schemes and fixed\r\npoint schemes. For most of the thesis, the focus is on smooth
    complex varieties with\r\nan action of a principally paired group, e.g. a parabolic
    subgroup of a reductive group.\r\nThe fundamental theorem 5.2.11 from co-authored
    article [66] says that if the principal\r\nnilpotent has a unique zero, then the
    zero scheme over the Kostant section is isomorphic\r\nto the spectrum of the equivariant
    cohomology ring, remembering the grading in terms of\r\na C^* action. A similar
    statement is proved also for the G-invariant functions on the total\r\nzero scheme
    over the whole Lie algebra. Additionally, we are able to prove an analogous\r\nresult
    for the GKM spaces, which poses the question on a joint generalisation.\r\nWe
    also tackle the situation of a singular variety. As long as it is embedded in
    a smooth\r\nvariety with regular action, we are able to study its cohomology as
    well by means of\r\nthe zero scheme. In case of e.g. Schubert varieties this determines
    the cohomology ring\r\ncompletely. In largest generality, this allows us to see
    a significant part of the cohomology\r\nring.\r\nWe also show (Theorem 6.2.1)
    that the cohomology ring of spherical varieties appears as\r\nthe ring of functions
    on the zero scheme. The computational aspect is not easy, but one\r\ncan hope
    that this can bring some concrete information about such cohomology rings.\r\nLastly,
    the K-theory conjecture 6.3.1 is studied, with some results attained for GKM\r\nspaces.\r\nThe
    thesis includes also an introduction to group actions on algebraic varieties.
    In\r\nparticular, the vector fields associated to the actions are extensively
    studied. We also\r\nprovide a version of the Kostant section for arbitrary principally
    paired group, which\r\nparametrises the regular orbits in the Lie algebra of an
    algebraic group. Before proving\r\nthe main theorem, we also include a historical
    overview of the field. In particular we bring\r\ntogether the results of Akyildiz,
    Carrell and Lieberman on non-equivariant cohomology\r\nrings."

  text: The central object of investigation of this paper is the Hirzebruch class,
    a deformation of the Todd class, given by Hirzebruch (for smooth varieties). The
    generalization for singular varieties is due to Brasselet–Schürmann–Yokura. Following
    the work of Weber, we investigate its equivariant version for (possibly singular)
    toric varieties. The local decomposition of the Hirzebruch class to the fixed
    points of the torus action and a formula for the local class in terms of the defining
    fan are recalled. After this review part, we prove the positivity of local Hirzebruch
    classes for all toric varieties, thus proving false the alleged counterexample
    given by Weber.
