Type Construction and Cycle Detection

We study some properties of the characteristic cycle of a constructible complex on a smooth variety over a perfect field, push-forward and product.

Background/Objectives:

In this paper, we construct almost resolvable cycle systems of order $4k+1$ for odd $k\ge 11$. This completes the proof of the existence of almost resolvable cycle systems with odd cycle length.

Background

We show that the characteristic cycle of the exterior product of constructible complexes is the exterior product of the characteristic cycles of factors. This implies the compatibility of characteristic cycles with smooth pull-back which is a first step in the proof of the index formula.
