Small deformations of the complex structure do not always preserve special metric properties in the Hermitian non-K\"ahler setting. In this paper, we find necessary conditions for the existence of smooth curves of balanced metrics…
We prove that a generically regular semisimple Higgs bundle equipped with a non-degenerate symmetric pairing on any Riemann surface always has a harmonic metric compatible with the pairing. We also study the classification of such…
In theories with extra dimensions the Standard Model Higgs fields can be identified with internal components of bulk gauge fields (Higgs-gauge unification). The bulk gauge symmetry protects the Higgs mass from quadratic divergences, but at…
We show that some Gieseker stable sheaves on a projective K3 surface $X$ are stable with respect to a stability condition of Bridgeland on the derived category of $X$ if the stability condition is in explicit subsets of the space of…
We provide an algebraic framework for quantization of Hermitian metrics that are solutions of the Hitchin equation for Higgs bundles over a projective manifold. Using Geometric Invariant Theory, we introduce a notion of balanced metrics in…
In this paper, we study Higgs and co-Higgs bundles on non-K\"ahler elliptic surfaces. We show, in particular, that non-trivial stable Higgs bundles only exist when the base of the elliptic fibration has genus at least two and use this…
The stability of Yang-Mills bundles over the usual $S^4$ space-time manifold is investigated according to the topological methods. The necessary gauge- and topological invaraint criterion for the exsitence of the related critical points is…
The stability of the Standard Model is determined by the true minimum of the effective Higgs potential. We show that the potential at its minimum when computed by the traditional method is strongly dependent on the gauge parameter. It…
Let G be an infinitesimal group scheme of finite height r and V(G) the scheme which represents 1-parameter subgroups of G. We consider sheaves over the projectivization P(G) of V(G) constructed from a G-module M. We show that if P(G) is…
Given a graded $E_1$-module over an $E_2$-algebra in spaces, we construct an augmented semi-simplicial space up to higher coherent homotopy over it, called its canonical resolution, whose graded connectivity yields homological stability for…
For a differentiable manifold $M$, a pair $(M, \nabla)$ is called an affine manifold if $\nabla$ is a flat and torsion-free connection on the tangent bundle $TM\rightarrow M$. A Riemannian metric $g$ on $M$ is said to be a Hessian metric on…
In this article we pursue the following main goals. In the first place, we establish the existence of "estimable" Hermite--Einstein metrics for stable reflexive coherent sheaves on compact normal K\"ahler spaces. If moreover the background…
On a Riemannian manifold of dimension $n$ we extend the known analytic results on Yang-Mills connections to the class of connections called $\Omega$-Yang-Mills connections, where $\Omega$ is a smooth, not necessarily closed, $(n-4)$-form.…
A twisted Higgs bundle on a K\"ahler manifold $X$ is a pair $(E,\phi)$ consisting of a holomorphic vector bundle $E$ and a holomorphic bundle morphism $\phi\colon M\otimes E \to E$ for some holomorphic vector bundle $M$. Such objects were…
We prove a closed formula counting semistable twisted Higgs bundles of fixed rank and degree over a smooth projective curve defined over a finite field. We also prove a formula for the Donaldson-Thomas invariants of the moduli spaces of…
We introduce an analogue of Bridgeland's stability conditions for polarised varieties. Much as Bridgeland stability is modelled on slope stability of coherent sheaves, our notion of Z-stability is modelled on the notion of K-stability of…
In this paper, we introduce the notions of slope stability and the Hermitian Einstein metric for big cohomology classes. The main result is the Kobayashi Hitchin correspondence on compact normal spaces with big classes admitting the…
In this paper, we study Hermitian-Yang-Mills connections (HYM) on a smooth Hermitian vector bundle over compact K\"{a}hler manifold. We calculate the virtual dimension of the moduli space of HYM connections and provide an analytic proof…
Let g be a G-invariant Einstein metric on a compact homogeneous space M=G/K. We use a formula for the Lichnerowicz Laplacian of g at G-invariant TT-tensors to study the stability type of g as a critical point of the scalar curvature…
Given an infinite reductive algebraic group $G$, we consider $G$-equivariant coherent sheaves with prescribed multiplicities, called $(G,h)$-constellations, for which two stability notions arise. The first one is analogous to the…
