Tractors and Twistors bundles both provide natural conformally covariant calculi on $4D$-Riemannian manifolds. They have different origins but are closely related, and usually constructed bottom-up from prolongation of defining differential…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective curve over an algebraically closed field $k$. Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a Bruhat-Tits group scheme on $X$ which is generically semi-simple and trivial. We show that the \'etale fundamental group of the moduli stack…

We prove `twisted' versions of Kirchhoff's network theorem and Kirchhoff's matrix-tree theorem on connected finite graphs. Twisting here refers to chains with coefficients in a flat unitary line bundle.

In this note, we present criteria that are equivalent to a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $G$ being effective. One of these conditions is that $G$ satisfies the "C*-algebraic local bisection hypothesis"; that is, that every normaliser…

Let $G$ be a linear algebraic group over an infinite field $k$. Loosely speaking, a $G$-torsor over $k$-variety is said to be versal if it specializes to every $G$-torsor over any $k$-field. The existence of versal torsors is well-known. We…

This paper addresses the problem of calculating the Amitsur subgroup of a proper $k$-scheme. Under mild hypothesis, we calculate this subgroup for proper $k$-varieties $X$ with $\mathrm{Pic}(X)\simeq \mathbb{Z}^{\oplus m}$, using a…

This paper constitutes a first step in the author's program to investigate the question of when a homotopy of 2-cocycles $\omega = \{\omega_t\}_{t \in [0,1]}$ on a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ induces an isomorphism of…

We begin by studying the Riemannian geometry of the tangent Lie group $TG$ associated with a Lie group $G$ whose commutator subgroup is two-dimensional, equipped with the lift of a left-invariant Riemannian metric on $G$. We establish the…

It is proved that a multiset of permissible arcs over a tiling is uniquely determined by its intersection vector under a mild condition. This generalizes a classical result over marked surfaces with triangulations. We apply this result to…

We resolve a case of the oriented knot complement conjecture by showing that knots in an orientable circle bundle $N$ over a genus $g \geq 2$ surface $S$ are determined by their complements. We apply this to the setting of canonical knots…

Well-known work of Renault shows that if $\mathcal{E}$ is a twist over a second countable, effective, \'etale groupoid $G$, then there is a naturally associated Cartan subalgebra of the reduced twisted groupoid C*-algebra $C^*_{r}(G; E)$,…

A twisted quiver bundle is a set of holomorphic vector bundles over a complex manifold, labelled by the vertices of a quiver, linked by a set of morphisms twisted by a fixed collection of holomorphic vector bundles, labelled by the arrows.…

In this paper, we study the semi-stable twisted holomorphic vector bundles over compact Gauduchon manifolds. By using Uhlenbeck--Yau's continuity method, we show that the existence of approximate Hermitian--Einstein structure and the…

We generalise the variant of the Babylonian tower theorem for vector bundles on projective spaces proved by I. Coanda and G. Trautmann (2006) to the case of principal $G$-bundles over projective spaces, where $G$ is a linear algebraic group…

In his unpublished notes on fat bundles, W. Ziller poses a compelling question: given a fat principal $G$-bundle $(P, g) \rightarrow (B, h)$ with $\dim G = 3$, and $g$ representing a Riemannian submersion metric ensuring that the $G$-orbits…

We show that Cuntz--Pimsner algebras associated to partial automorphisms twisted by vector bundles are classifiable in the sense of the Elliott program whenever the action is minimal and the base space is compact, infinite and has finite…

In this paper we consider families of mutually commuting endomorphisms of the generalized tangent bundle. We identify natural tensorial constraints extending the notion of a generalized K\"ahler structure to endomorphisms that are not…

We discuss the classification problem for the unitary easy quantum groups, under strong axioms, of noncommutative geometric nature. Our main results concern the intermediate easy quantum groups $O_N\subset G\subset U_N^+$. To any such…

Twistor spaces are certain compact complex threefolds with an additional real fibre bundle structure. We focus here on twistor spaces over $3\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^2$. Such spaces are either small resolutions of double solids or they can be…

We define the orbit category for transitive topological groupoids and their equivariant CW-complexes. By using these constructions we define equivariant Bredon homology and cohomology for actions of transitive topological groupoids. We show…
