We conjecture the equality of the numerical and Kodaira dimensions $\nu_1^*(X)$ and $\kappa_1^*(X)$ for the cotangent bundle of compact K\"ahler manifolds $X$, generalising the classical case of the canonical bundle. We show or reduce it to…

In this article, we study the rational cohomology rings of Voisin's punctual Hilbert schemes $X^{[n]}$ associated to a symplectic compact fourfold $X$. We prove that these rings can be universally constructed from $H^*(X,\mathbb{Q})$ and…

Let P be a connected smooth p-manifold. We describe the group of all cobordism classes of smooth maps of n-manifolds to P with singularities of a given $cal K$-invariant class in terms of certain stable homotopy groups by applying the…

In this note, we report on a work jointly done with C. Simpson on a generalization of Reznikov's theorem which says that the Chern-Simons classes and in particular the Deligne Chern classes (in degrees $> 1$) are torsion, of a flat vector…

We study the problem of defining line bundles over certain non-Hausdorff spaces known as Quantum Tori, motivated by the proposed theory of Real Multiplication for real quadratic fields. We draw analogies from the theory of Line Bundles over…

We examine the topological characteristic cohomology classes of complexified vector bundles. In particular, all the classes coming from the real vector bundles underlying the complexification are determined.

Let f: M -> N be an even codimensional immersion between smooth manifolds. We derive an explicit formula for the Pontrjagin numbers and signature of the multiple point manifolds in terms of singular cohomology of M and N, the maps induced…

Some cohomology elements, called $\nu$ classes, as a supergeneralization of universal Chern classes, are introduced for canonical super line bundles over $\nu$ projective spaces, a novel supergeometric generalization of projective spaces.…

We prove explicit formulas for Chern classes of tensor products of vector bundles, with coefficients given by certain universal polynomials in the ranks of the two bundles.

For any vector $r=(r_1,..., r_n)$, let $M_r$ denote the moduli space (under rigid motions) of polygons in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with $n$-sides whose lengths are $r_1,...,r_n$. We give an explicit characterization of the oriented $S^1$-cobordism…

We consider morphisms $\pi: X \to \mathbb{P}^1$ of smooth projective varieties over $\mathbb{C}$. We show that if $\pi$ has at most one singular fibre, then $X$ is uniruled and $\pi$ admits sections. We reach the same conclusions, but with…

We use Chern-Weil theory for Hermitian holomorphic vector bundles with canonical connections for explicit computation of the Chern forms of trivial bundles with special non-diagonal Hermitian metrics. We prove that every del-dellbar exact…

Let X be a compact connected Riemann surface of genus at least two. Let r be a prime number and \xi a holomorphic line bundle on it such that r is not a divisor of degree(\xi). Let {\mathcal M}_\xi(r) denote the moduli space of stable…

We prove that Chern classes in continuous $\ell$-adic cohomology of automorphic bundles associated to representations of $G$ on a projective Shimura variety with data $(G,X)$ are trivial rationally. It is a consequence of Beilinson's…

We study moduli stacks of principal $\Bbb C^*$-bundles over nodal complex algebraic curves and determine their rational cohomology algebras in terms of Chern classes.

Let G be a complex connected reductive group. The representation ring R(G) admits a canonical filtration defined in terms of the lambda-structure. We compute the associated graded ring gr R(G) (over Q) and the Chern classes of a…

We obtain relations among the characteristic classes of a manifold M admitting corank one maps. Our relations yield strong restrictions on the cobordism class of M and also nonexistence results for singular maps of the projective spaces. We…

Let $(X,\,D)$ be an $m$-pointed compact Riemann surface of genus at least $2$. For each $x \,\in\, D$, fix full flag and concentrated weight system $\alpha$. Let $P \mathcal{M}_{\xi}$ denote the moduli space of semi-stable parabolic vector…

Motivated by Koll\'{a}r-Matsusaka's Riemann-Roch type inequalities, applying effective very ampleness of adjoint bundles on Fujita conjecture and log-concavity given by Khovanskii-Teissier inequalities, we show that for any partition…

Given a supervector bundle $E = E_0\oplus E_1 \to M$, we exhibit a parametrization of Quillen superconnections on $E$ by graded connections on the Cartan-Koszul supermanifold $(M;\Omega (M))$. The relation between the curvatures of both…
