Let $X$ be a compact complex manifold of dimension $n$ and let $m$ be a positive integer with $m\leq n$. Assume that $X$ admits a K\"ahler metric $\omega$ and a weakly positive, $\partial\bar\partial$-closed, smooth $(n-m,\,n-m)$-form…
We recall how the Gauss-Bonnet theorem can be interpreted as a finite dimen- sional index theorem. We describe the construction given in hep-th/0512293 of a function that can be interpreted as a gravitational effective action on a…
A classification of the possible symmetric principal bundles with a compact gauge group, a compact symmetry group and a base manifold which is regularly foliated by the orbits of the symmetry group is derived. A generalization of Wang's…
A known result in random matrix theory states the following: Given a random Wigner matrix $X$ which belongs to the Gaussian Orthogonal Ensemble (GOE), then such matrix $X$ has an invariant distribution under orthogonal conjugations. The…
We show how to make precise the vague idea that for compact metric spaces that are close together for Gromov-Hausdorff distance, suitable vector bundles on one metric space will have counterpart vector bundles on the other. Our approach…
We prove a Gauss-Bonnet formula X(G) = sum_x K(x), where K(x)=(-1)^dim(x) (1-X(S(x))) is a curvature of a vertex x with unit sphere S(x) in the Barycentric refinement G1 of a simplicial complex G. K(x) is dual to (-1)^dim(x) for which…
A relative Picard theory in the context of graded manifolds is introduced. A Berezinian calculus and a theory of connections over SUSY-curves are systematically developed, and used to prove a Gauss-Bonnet theorem for line bundles in that…
In this paper, I construct noncompact analogs of the Chern classes of equivariant vector bundles over complex reductive groups. For the tangent bundle, these Chern classes yield an adjunction formula for the Euler characteristic of complete…
We show that a continuously-normed Banach bundle $\mathcal{E}$ over a compact Hausdorff space $X$ whose space of sections is algebraically finitely-generated (f.g.) over $C(X)$ is locally trivial (and hence the section space is projective…
In this paper, we view the equivariant orientation theory of equivariant vector bundles from the lenses of equivariant Picard spectra. This viewpoint allows us to identify, for a finite group $\mathrm{G}$, a precise condition under which an…
We establish the following universality property in high dimensions: Let $X$ be a random vector with density in $\mathbb{R}^n$. The density function can be arbitrary. We show that there exists a fixed unit vector $\theta \in \mathbb{R}^n$…
The geometry of graded principal bundles is discussed in the framework of graded manifold theory of Kostant-Berezin-Leites. In particular, we prove that a graded principal bundle is globally trivial if and only if it admits a global graded…
We investigate stable holomorphic vector bundles on a compact complex K\"ahler manifold and more generally on an orbifold that is equipped with a K\"ahler structure. We use the existence of Hermite-Einstein connections in this set-up and…
Inspired by their results on the Chow rings of projective K3 surfaces, Beauville and Voisin made the following conjecture: given a projective hyperkaehler manifold, for any algebraic cycle which is a polynomial with rational coefficients of…
We define the notion of a parahoric group scheme $\mathcal G$ over a smooth projective curve, and formulate four conjectures on the structure of the stack of $\mathcal G$-bundles, which generalize to this case well-known results on…
We compute the curvature tensor of the tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold endowed with a natural metric and we get some relationships between the geometry of the base manifold and the geometry of the tangent bundle.
Thurston proposed, in part of an unfinished manuscript, to study surface group actions on $S^1$ by using an $S^1$-connection on the suspension bundle obtained from a harmonic measure. Following the approach and previous work of the authors,…
We propose a version of the Hodge conjecture in Bott-Chern cohomology and using results from characterizing real holomorphic chains by real rectifiable currents to provide a proof for this question. We define a Bott-Chern differential…
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…
We study the asymptotic properties of the conormal cycle of nodal sets associated to a random superposition of eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on a smooth compact Riemannian manifold without boundary. In the case where the dimension is odd,…
