We consider a finite collection of line bundles $\Phi$ introduced by Bondal on a smooth, projective toric variety $X$. For any coherent sheaf $F$ on $X$, we construct minimal resolutions of $F$ by line bundles in $\Phi$, up to twist, with…
We prove that the norm of the Euler class E for flat vector bundles is $2^{-n}$ (in even dimension $n$, since it vanishes in odd dimension). This shows that the Sullivan--Smillie bound considered by Gromov and Ivanov--Turaev is sharp. We…
We study the behaviour of analytic torsion under smooth fibrations. Namely, let F \to E \to^{f} B be a smooth fiber bundle of connected closed oriented smooth manifolds and let $V$ be a flat vector bundle over $E$. Assume that $E$ and $B$…
For a semisimple real Lie group $G$, we study topological properties of moduli spaces of polystable parabolic $G$-Higgs bundles over a Riemann surface with a divisor of finitely many distinct points. For a split real form of a complex…
We study the Borsuk-Ulam theorem for triple (M;\tau; \R^n), where M is a compact, connected, 3-manifold equipped with a fixed-point-free involution \tau. The largest value of n for which the Borsuk-Ulam theorem holds is called the Z_2-index…
Let T be a torus. We show that Koszul duality can be used to compute the equivariant cohomology of topological T-spaces as well as the cohomology of pull backs of the universal T-bundle. The new features are that no further assumptions…
Let $P(E)$ be the projectivization of a holomorphic vector bundle $E$ over a compact complex curve $C$. We characterize the existence of an extremal K\"ahler metric on the ruled manifold $P(E)$ in terms of relative K-polystability and the…
Let f:E-->B be a fibration of fiber F. Eilenberg and Moore have proved that there is a natural isomorphism of vector spaces between H^*(F;F_p) and Tor^{C^*(B)}(C^*(E),F_p). Generalizing the rational case proved by Sullivan, Anick [Hopf…
We consider the moduli space of rank two, odd degree, semi-stable Real vector bundles over a real curve, calculating the singular cohomology ring in odd and zero characteristic for most examples.
In this paper, we prove that the ${\rm Ham}$-orbit space from a fiber of a large family of cotangent bundles, as a metric space with respect to the Floer-theoretic spectral metric, contains a quasi-isometric embedding of an…
F-bundle is a formal/non-archimedean version of variation of nc-Hodge structures which plays a crucial role in the theory of atoms as birational invariants from Gromov-Witten theory. In this paper, we establish the spectral decomposition…
For a regular pair $(X,Y)$ of schemes of pure codimension 1 on which 2 is invertible, we consider quadric bundles on $X$ which are nondegenerate on $X-Y$, but are minimally degenerate on $Y$. We give a formula for the behaviour of the…
The equivariant cohomology ring of a GKM manifold is isomorphic to the cohomology ring of its GKM graph. In this paper we explore the implications of this fact for equivariant fiber bundles for which the total space and the base space are…
We present explicit formulas for the intersection pairing in the intersection cohomology of the moduli space $M_0(r)$ of rank-$r$, degree-$0$ semistable bundles on a Riemann surface. The key idea is to realize this intersection cohomology…
In this work we construct certain general bundles $<\mathfrak{M},\rho,X>$ and $<\mathfrak{B},\eta,X>$ of Hausdorff locally convex spaces associated with a given Banach bundle $<\mathfrak{E},\pi,X>$. Then we present conditions ensuring the…
For a Hausdorff space $X$, a free involution $\tau:X\to X$ and a Hausdorff space $Y$, we discover a connection between the sectional category of the double covers $q:X\to X/\tau$ and $q^Y:F(Y,2)\to D(Y,2)$ from the ordered configuration…
Let $p_E : E \to M$ be a fibre bundle over the $m$-dimensional manifold $M$ whose typical fibre is the vector space $\R^e$ and let $p_F : F \to N$ be a fibre bundle over the $n$-dimensional manifold $N$ whose typical fibre is the vector…
The paper investigates vanishing conditions on the first cohomology module of a normalized rank 2 vector bundle E on P^3 which force E to split, and finds therefore strategic levels of non-vanishing for a non-split bundle. The present…
An elementary result in point-set topology is used, with knowledge of the mod $2$ cohomology of real projective spaces, to establish classical results of Lebesgue and Knaster-Kuratowski-Mazurkiewicz, as well as the topological central point…
Let $f_s: X_s \to {\bf {P}}^2$ be the blowing-up of $s$ distinct points and $E$ a vector bundle on $X_s$. Here we give a cohomological criterio which is equivalent to $E \cong f_s^\ast (A)$ with $A$ a direct sum of line bundles. We also…
