We study the various arithmetic and geometric Frobenius morphisms on the moduli stack of principal bundles over a smooth projective algebraic curve and determine explicitly their actions on the $\ell-$adic cohomology of the moduli stack in…
This paper proposes a geometrisation of $\mathbb N$-manifolds of degree $n$ as $n$-fold vector bundles equipped with a (signed) $S_n$-symmetry. More precisely, it proves an equivalence between the categories of $[n]$-manifolds and the…
We develop the theory of smooth principal bundles for a smooth group $G$, using the framework of diffeological spaces. After giving new examples showing why arbitrary principal bundles cannot be classified, we define $D$-numerable bundles,…
We introduce a notion of ``$n$-dual'' to a simplicial vector space for $n\ge 0$. Coming with it, there is a canonical pairing, which we show to be non-degenerate up to homotopy for homotopy $n$-types. As a result this notion of duality is…
We show how the double vector bundle structure of the manifold of double velocities, with its submanifolds of holonomic and semiholonomic double velocities, is mirrored by a structure of holonomic and semiholonomic subgroups in the…
We consider rationally connected complex projective manifolds M and show that their loop spaces--infinite dimensional complex manifolds--have properties similar to those of M. Furthermore, we give a finite dimensional application concerning…
We give a method to construct stable vector bundles whose rank divides the degree over curves of genus bigger than one. The method complements the one given by Newstead. Finally, we make some systematic remarks and observations in…
For isolated complex hypersurface singularities with real defining equation we show the existence of a monodromy vector field such that complex conjugation intertwines the local monodromy diffeomorphism with its inverse. In particular, it…
In this paper, we study smooth, semi-free actions on closed, smooth, simply connected manifolds, such that the orbit space is a smoothable manifold. We show that the only simply connected $5$-manifolds admitting a smooth, semi-free circle…
For a smooth (locally trivial) principal bundle in Ehresmann's sense, the relation between the commuting vertical and horizontal actions of the structural Lie group and the structural Lie groupoid (isomorphisms between vertical fibers) is…
There is a natural conjugation action on the set of endomorphism of $\P^N$ of fixed degree $d \geq 2$. The quotient by this action forms the moduli of degree $d$ endomorphisms of $\P^N$, denoted $\mathcal{M}_d^N$. We construct invariant…
This paper describes an equivalence of the canonical category of $\mathbb N$-manifolds of degree $2$ with a category of involutive double vector bundles. More precisely, we show how involutive double vector bundles are in duality with…
The reduced universal monoid on the action category associated to a pointed simplicial M-set has appeared in the guise of various simplicial monoid and group constructions. These include the classical constructions of Milnor and James, as…
Processes are often viewed as coalgebras, with the structure maps specifying the state transitions. In the simplest case, the state spaces are discrete, and the structure map simply takes each state to the next states. But the coalgebraic…
The moduli space $M$ of semi-stable rank 2 bundles with trivial determinant over a complex curve carries involutions naturally associated to 2-torsion points on the Jacobian of the curve. For every lift of a 2-torsion point to a 4-torsion…
We propose an approach to study logarithmic sheaves T(-log A) associated with a hyperplane arrangements A on the projective space, based on projective duality, direct image functors and vector bundles methods. We focus on freeness of line…
We here present rudiments of an approach to geometric actions in noncommutative algebraic geometry, based on geometrically admissible actions of monoidal categories. This generalizes the usual (co)module algebras over Hopf algebras which…
The second order tangent bundle $T^{2}M$ of a smooth manifold $M$ consists of the equivalent classes of curves on $M$ that agree up to their acceleration. It is known that in the case of a finite $n$-dimensional manifold $M$, $T^{2}M$…
It has been known that an effective smooth $({\Bbb Z}_2)^k$-action on a smooth connected closed manifold $M^n$ fixing a finite set can be associated to a $({\Bbb Z}_2)^k$-colored regular graph. In this paper, we consider abstract graphs…
We study relations among characteristic classes of smooth manifold bundles with highly-connected fibers. For bundles with fiber the connected sum of $g$ copies of a product of spheres $S^d \times S^d$ and an odd $d$, we find numerous…
