Linear Weightings and Deformations of Vector Bundles

Differential Geometry 2023-12-06 v1

Abstract

We define and explore the notion of linear weightings for vector bundles, extending the recent work by Loizides and Meinrenken. We construct weighted normal bundles and deformation spaces in the category of vector bundles. We explain how a linear weighting determines a filtration on differential operators, and an interpolation between a differential operator and its ``weighted" linearization. We close by explaining how our constructions capture the rescaled spinor bundle of Higson and Yi, and a related construction by \v{S}evera.
