For a discrete group $\Gamma$, we study vector bundles $E_\rho$ on compact subsets of $B\Gamma$ associated to almost representations $\rho:\Gamma \to U(n)$. We compute the first Chern class of $E_\rho$ in terms of $\rho$. When $\rho$ is…
We define a general product of two $n$-dimensional tensors $\mathbb {A}$ and $\mathbb {B}$ with orders $m\ge 2$ and $k\ge 1$, respectively. This product is a generalization of the usual matrix product, and satisfies the associative law.…
In this paper, we give a simple proof of the Gauss-Bonnet-Chern theorem for a real oriented Finsler vector bundle with rank equal to the dimension of the base manifold. As an application, a Gauss-Bonnet-Chern formula for any…
We extend the theory of tensor products of C*-algebras to the larger category of Fell bundles over locally compact groups. We prove that, like in the case of C*-algebras, there exist maximal and minimal tensor products. Given two Fell…
We define a new symmetry for morphisms of vector bundles, called triality symmetry, and compute Chern class formulas for the degeneracy loci of such morphisms. In an appendix, we show how to canonically associate an octonion algebra bundle…
We provide a classification of globally generated vector bundles with $c_1 = 5$ on the projective 3-space. The classification is complete (except for one case) but not as detailed as the corresponding classification in the case $c_1 = 4$…
We begin by explaining how a physical problem of studying the quantum Hall effect on a closed surface $C$ leads, via Laughlin's approach, to a mathematical question of describing the rank and the first Chern class of a particular vector…
We obtain all linear Chern number inequalities satisfied by any smooth complete intersection threefold with ample canonical bundle.
We found a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of the tensor product of modules over a vertex algebra. We defined the notion of vertex bilinear map and we provide two algebraic construction of the tensor product, where one…
We prove a relative form of Verdier's specialization formula, and apply it to derive a Chern class identity predicted by string dualities.
We define and study the secondary Chern-Euler class for a general submanifold of a Riemannian manifold. Using this class, we define and study index for a vector field with non-isolated singularities on a submanifold. As an application, our…
We introduce a class extending the notion of Chern-Mather class to possibly nonreduced schemes, and use it to express the difference between Schwartz-MacPherson's Chern class and the class of the virtual tangent bundle of a singular…
This paper gives various methods for constructing vector bundles over elliptic curves and more generally over families of elliptic curves. We construct universal families over generalized elliptic curves via spectral cover methods and also…
In this paper, we develop several pluripotential-theoretic techniques for singular metrics on vector bundles. We first introduce the theory of non-pluripolar products on holomorphic vector bundles on complex manifolds. Then we define and…
C*-endomorphisms arising from superselection structures with non-trivial centre define a 'rank' and a 'first Chern class'. Crossed products by such endomorphisms involve the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of a vector bundle having the…
We define and study a certain relative tensor product of subfactors over a modular tensor category. This gives a relative tensor product of two completely rational heterotic full local conformal nets with trivial superselection structures…
Representations of vertex operator algebras define sheaves of coinvariants and conformal blocks on moduli of stable pointed curves. Assuming certain finiteness and semisimplicity conditions, we prove that such sheaves satisfy the…
We discuss conjectures following from the attractor mechanism in type II string theory about the possible Chern classes of stable holomorphic vector bundles on Calabi-Yau threefolds. In particular, we give sufficient conditions for Chern…
We derive integral formulas that simplify the Vector Spherical Tensor Product recently introduced by Xie et al., which generalizes the Gaunt tensor product to antisymmetric couplings. In particular, we obtain explicit closed-form…
We study singular hermitian metrics on holomorphic vector bundles, following Berndtsson-P{\u{a}}un. Previous work by Raufi has shown that for such metrics, it is in general not possible to define the curvature as a current with measure…
