Let $X$ be an irreducible smooth complex projective curve of genus at least two. Let $N$ be a connected component of the moduli space of semistable principal ${\rm PGL}_r({\mathbb C})$- bundles over $X$; it is a normal unirational complex…

Given any unital, finite, classifiable C$^*$-algebra $A$ with real rank zero and any compact simplex bundle with the fibre at zero being homeomorphic to the space of tracial states on $A$, we show that there exists a flow on $A$ realising…

We prove that for any simply connected isotropic reductive group G over a Dedekind domain D, any Zariski-locally trivial principal G-bundle over D is trivial. The corresponding result for quasi-split groups was proved in 1967 by G. Harder.

A vector bundle $E$ over a projective variety $M$ is called finite if it satisfies a nontrivial polynomial equation with nonnegative integral coefficients. Introducing finite bundles, Nori proved that $E$ is finite if and only if the…

Let $G$ be a compact connected semisimple Lie group with Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. Let $\mathcal{O}\subset\mathfrak{g}^*$ be a coadjoint orbit. The action of $G$ on $\mathcal{O}$ induces a morphism $\rho:G\to \mathrm{Homeo}(\mathcal{O})$.…

With a compact PL manifold X we associate a category T(X). The objects of T(X) are all combinatorial manifolds of type X, and morphisms are combinatorial assemblies. We prove that the homotopy equivalence BT (X) \approx BPL(X) holds, where…

We construct an irreducible holomorphic connection with SL(2,R)-monodromy on the trivial holomorphic vector bundle of rank two over a compact Riemann surface. This answers a question of Calsamiglia, Deroin, Heu and Loray in \cite{CDHL}.

We study a family of polynomials introduced by Daigle and Freudenburg, which contains the famous V\'en\'ereau polynomials and defines $\mathbb{A}^2$-fibrations over $\mathbb{A}^2$. According to the Dolgachev-Weisfeiler conjecture, every…

We study smooth morphisms $f \colon X \to S$ that are $\mathbb{A}^1$-contractible in the unstable $\mathbb{A}^1$-homotopy category $\mathcal{H}(S)$. For base schemes $S$ of finite Krull dimension, we show that $\mathbb{A}^1$-contractibility…

Let C be an irreducible smooth projective curve, of genus at least two, defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. For a fixed line bundle L on C, let M_C(r,L) be the coarse moduli space of semistable vector bundles…

In 1985 Diederich and Ohsawa proved that every disc bundle over a compact K\"ahler manifold is weakly 1-complete. In this paper, under certain conditions we generalize this result to the case of fiber bundles over compact K\"ahler manifolds…

We describe a locally trivial quantum principal U(1)-bundle over the quantum space S^2_{pq} which is a noncommutative analogue of the usual Hopf bundle. We also provide results concerning the structure of its total space algebra…

When the cohomology ring of a generalized Bott manifold with $\mathbb{Q}$-coefficient is isomorphic to that of a product of complex projective spaces $\mathbb{C}P^{n_i}$, the generalized Bott manifold is said to be $\mathbb{Q}$-trivial. We…

We consider a closed odd-dimensional oriented manifold $M$ together with an acyclic flat hermitean vector bundle $\cF$. We form the trivial fibre bundle with fibre $M$ over the manifold of all Riemannian metrics on $M$. It has a natural…

We extend the notion of an almost flat bundle over a closed Riemannian manifold to bundles over simplicial complexes, and prove that up to a constant factor, this notion is invariant under pullback via maps which induce isomorphisms on…

The generalized Miller-Morita-Mumford classes of a manifold bundle with fiber $M$ depend only on the underlying $\tau_M$-fibration, meaning the family of vector bundles formed by the tangent bundles of the fibers. This motivates a closer…

The Grothendieck-Serre conjecture predicts that every generically trivial torsor under a reductive group $G$ over a regular semilocal ring $R$ is trivial. We establish this for unramified $R$ granted that $G^{\mathrm{ad}}$ is totally…
