Here we consider higher Chern classes of vector bundles of conformal blocks on $\overline{\operatorname{M}}_{0,n}$, giving explicit formulas for them, and extending various results that hold for first Chern classes to them. We use these…

We investigate the behavior of vector bundles of conformal blocks for $sp_{2\ell}$ at level one on $\bar{M}_{0,n}$. We show their first Chern classes are equivalent to conformal blocks divisors for $sl_2$ at level $\ell$ if and only if the…

By way of intersection theory on $\bar M_{g,n}$, we show that geometric interpretations for conformal blocks, as sections of ample line bundles over projective varieties, do not have to hold at points on the boundary. We show such a…

We study a family of semiample divisors on $\bar{M}_{0,n}$ defined using conformal blocks and analyze their associated morphisms.

We show that under some assumptions on the monodromy group some combinations of higher Chern classes of flat vector bundles are torsion in the Chow group. Similar results hold for flat vector bundles that deform to such flat vector bundles…

Representations of certain vertex algebras, here called of CohFT-type, can be used to construct vector bundles of coinvariants and conformal blocks on moduli spaces of stable curves [DGT2]. We show that such bundles define semisimple…

We present two formulas for Chern classes of the tensor product of two vector bundles. In the first formula we consider a matrix containing Chern classes of the first bundle and we take a polynomial of this matrix with Chern classes of the…

Let ${\mathbb F}_0$ be an algebraically closed field, with $char({\mathbb F}_0)=0$. In this article, for prime numbers $p\geq 2$, we construct smooth affine algebras $B$ over ${\mathbb F}_0$, with $\dim B=p+2$. Further, we construct…

In this paper, we obtain an explicit formula for the Chern character of a locally abelian parabolic bundle in terms of its constituent bundles. Several features and variants of parabolic structures are discussed. Parabolic bundles arising…

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.

Here we are fixing an output of a trivial calculation based on Konsevich's differential 2-form for the Chern class of polygon bundle. As a result an interesting combinatorics and arithmetics jumps right out of a jukebox. The calculation…

We define integral geometric analogues of the Chern classes for real vector bundle on a smooth real variety. More precisely, we define the Chern densities of a real bundle. These densities are analogues of the Chern forms of a complex…
