Chern-Weil homomorphism in twisted equivariant cohomology
read the original abstract
We describe the Cartan and Weil models of twisted equivariant cohomology together with the Cartan homomorphism among the two, and we extend the Chern-Weil homomorphism to the twisted equivariant cohomology. We clarify that in order to have a cohomology theory, the coefficients of the twisted equivariant cohomology must be taken in the completed polynomial algebra over the dual Lie algebra of $G$. We recall the relation between the equivariant cohomology of exact Courant algebroids and the twisted equivariant cohomology, and we show how to endow with a generalized complex structure the finite dimensional approximations of the Borel construction $M\times_G EG_k$, whenever the generalized complex manifold $M$ possesses a Hamiltonian $G$ action.
