Let E and F be vector bundles over a complex projective smooth curve X, and suppose that 0 -> E -> W -> F -> 0 is a nontrivial extension. Let G be a subbundle of F, and D an effective divisor on X. We give a criterion for the subsheaf G(-D)…
A generic strictly semistable bundle of degree zero over a curve X has a reducible theta divisor, given by the sum of the theta divisors of the stable summands of the associated graded bundle. The converse is not true: Beauville and Raynaud…
According to the Grothendieck-Lefschetz theorem from SGA 2, there are no nontrivial line bundles on the punctured spectrum $U_R$ of a local ring $R$ that is a complete intersection of dimension $\ge 4$. Dao conjectured a generalization for…
We develop a theory of \'etale parallel transport for vector bundles with numerically flat reduction on a $p$-adic variety. This construction is compatible with natural operations on vector bundles, Galois equivariant and functorial with…
Let $Y$ be a normal and projective variety over an algebraically closed field $k$ and $V$ a vector bundle over $Y$. We prove that if there exist a $k$-scheme $X$ and a finite surjective morphism $g:X\to Y$ that trivializes $V$ then $V$ is…
We study finite and semi-finite vector bundles on complex tori. We give an explicit decomposition of such bundles in terms of torsion and unipotent factors. As a consequence, we prove that the extended Nori fundamental group scheme of a…
Given two arbitrary vector bundles on the Fargues-Fontaine curve, we completely classify all vector bundles which arise as their extensions.
We define and study the motive of the moduli stack of vector bundles of fixed rank and degree over a smooth projective curve in Voevodsky's category of motives. We prove that this motive can be written as a homotopy colimit of motives of…
If $\P^\infty$ is the projective ind-space, i.e. $\P^\infty$ is the inductive limit of linear embeddings of complex projective spaces, the Barth-Van de Ven-Tyurin (BVT) Theorem claims that every finite rank vector bundle on $\P^\infty$ is…
In this paper we study holomorphic rank two vector bundles on the blow up of $ {\bf C}^2$ at the origin. A classical theorem of Birchoff and Grothendieck says that any holomorphic vector bundle on the projective plane ${\bf P}^1$ splits…
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 $c_1 = 4$…
The construction of double point cobordism groups of vector bundles on varieties in the work [Lee-P] (arXiv:1002.1500 [math.AG]) of Yuan-Pin Lee and Rahul Pandharipande gives immediately double point cobordism groups of filtered vector…
In this note we make use of some properties of vector fields on a manifold to give an alternate proof to [3] for the equivalence between connections and parallel transport on vector bundles over manifolds. Out of the proof will emerge a new…
In a previous paper we have constructed a compactification $KGl_n$ of the general linear group $Gl_n$, which in many respects is analogous to the so called wonderful compactification of adjoint semisimple algebraic groups as studied by De…
We prove that a system of equations introduced by Demailly (to attack a conjecture of Griffiths) has a smooth solution for a direct sum of ample line bundles on a Riemann surface. We also reduce the problem for general vector bundles to an…
We classify the radially symmetric connections in vector bundles over round spheres by proving that they are all parallel.
We give a class of examples of vector bundles on a relative smooth projective curve over Spec Z such that for infinitely many prime reductions the bundle has a Frobenius descent, but the restriction to the generic fiber in characteristic…
Grothendieck-Birkhoff Theorem states that every finite dimensional vector bundle over the projective line P1 splits as the sum of one dimensional vector bundles. This can be rephrased, in terms of orders, as stating that all maximal orders…
A Steiner bundle is a vector bundle on projective space arising as the cokernel of the map defined by a matrix of linear forms. These come up in various geometric settings, and by now they are the subject of a considerable literature.…
We give a short proof of the Gauss-Bonnet theorem for a real oriented Riemannian vector bundle $E$ of even rank over a closed compact orientable manifold $M$. This theorem reduces to the classical Gauss-Bonnet-Chern theorem in the special…
