Let $E$ be a vector bundle over a suitable differential manifold $M$ and let $\wedge^p E$ denote $p$-exterior product of $E$. Given sections $\omega_1,\dots,\omega_k$ of $E$ and a section $\eta$ of $\wedge^p E$, we consider the problem if…

The tangent bundle $T^kM$ of order $k$, of a smooth Banach manifold $M$ consists of all equivalent classes of curves that agree up to their accelerations of order $k$. In the previous work of the author he proved that $T^kM$, $1\leq k\leq…

Let $X$ be a smooth variety defined over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic and $\O_X(H)$ be a very ample line bundle on $X$. We show that for a semistable $X$-bundle $E$ of rank two, there exists an integer $m$…

In the paper we investigate submanifolds in a tangent bundle endowed with g-natural metric G, defined by a vector field on a base manifold. We give a sufficient condition for a vector field on M to defined totally geodesic submanifold in…

According to Horrocks (1966), a vector bundle E on the projective n-space extends stably to the projective N-space, N>n, if there exists a vector bundle on the larger space whose restriction to the smaller one is isomorphic to E plus a…

We prove that the multiplication of sections of globally generated line bundles on a model wonderful variety M of simply connected type is always surjective. This follows by a general argument which works for every wonderful variety and…

A natural explicit condition is given ensuring that an action of the multiplicative monoid of non-negative reals on a manifold F comes from homotheties of a vector bundle structure on F, or, equivalently, from an Euler vector field. This is…

We survey, complete, and modify a proof, involving knot theory, of Stiefel's theorem that all orientable $3$-manifolds are parallelizable. The completion of the proof is done by using the relationship between the tangent bundle and normal…

Let $\mathbb{Q_3}$ the smooth quadric in P^4 (the 4-dimensional projective space). In this note we completely describe the closure of the open set of vector bundles in ${\bf M}_{\mathbb{Q}_3}(0,2,0)$. This description gives another example…

We characterize Lie -Backlund vector fields in infinite dimensional jet bundles $J^\infty(\mathbb{R}^n, \mathbb{R}^m)$ that can be exponentiated to flows with each component depending on a finite set of variables. We show that for $m=1$…

There is a long-standing conjecture which states that every uniform algebraic vector bundle of rank $r<2n$ on the $n$-dimensional projective space $\mathbb{P}^n$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$ is homogeneous. This…

We construct a pair (E ,F), where E is a holomorphic vector bundle over a compact Riemann surface and F a holomorphic subbundle of E, such that both F and E/F admit holomorphic connections, but E does not.
