Recently L. Nicolaescu and the author formulated a conjecture which relates the geometric genus of a complex analytic normal surface singularity (whose link $M$ is a rational homology sphere) with the Seiberg-Witten invariant of $M$…

We study the spaces of stable real and quaternionic vector bundles on a real algebraic curve. The basic relationship is established with unitary representations of an extension Z/2 by the fundamental group. By comparison with the space of…

We study noncommutative generalizations of such notions of the classical symplectic geometry as degenerate Poisson structure, Poisson submanifold and quotient manifold, symplectic foliation and symplectic leaf for associative Poisson…

We prove that certain quiver varieties are irreducible and therefore are isomorphic to Hilbert schemes of points of the total spaces of the bundles $\mathcal O_{\mathbb P^1}(-n)$ for $n \ge 1$.

A projective moduli space of pairs (C,E) where E is a slope- semistable torsion free sheaf of uniform rank on a Deligne- Mumford stable curve C is constructed via G.I.T. There is a natural SL x SL action on the relative Quot scheme over the…

In previous work, the second author and others have found conditions on a homogeneous space $G/H$ which imply that, up to stabilization, all vector bundles over $G/H$ admit Riemannian metrics of non-negative sectional curvature. One…

Let $E$ be the tilting bundle on the Grassmannian $\text{Gr}(n,r)$ of $r$-dimensional quotients of $\Bbbk^n$ constructed by Kapranov. Buchweitz, Leuschke and Van den Bergh introduced a quiver $Q$ and a surjective $\Bbbk$-algebra…

We study the geometry of the twistor space of the universal hyperkaehler implosion Q for SU(n). Using the description of Q as a hyperkaehler quiver variety, we construct a holomorphic map from the twistor space Z_Q of Q to a complex vector…

Let E be a rank two vector bundle on a scheme X. The following three structures are shown to be equivalent : a) A primitive quadratic map q: E --> L, with values in an invertible module L. b) A double covering f: Y --> X endowed with an…

We give a canonical description of the formal moduli space of a vector bundle on a variety; as an application, we prove the closedness of certain differential forms on moduli corresponding to the trace form on the endomorphism algebra of…

Morita showed that for each power of the Euler class, there are examples of flat $\mathbb{S}^1$-bundles for which the power of the Euler class does not vanish. Haefliger asked if the same holds for flat odd-dimensional sphere bundles. In…

The moduli space of stable vector bundles on a Riemann surface is smooth when the rank and degree are coprime, and is diffeomorphic to the space of unitary connections of central constant curvature. A classic result of Newstead and…

Let $M^K_n$ be the moduli space of framed $K$-instantons with instanton number $n$ when $K$ is a compact simple Lie group of classical type. Due to Donaldson's theorem, its scheme structure is given by the regular locus of a GIT quotient of…

For a classical simple and simply connected group $G$, let $\mathcal{M}_{G,\omega}$ be the moduli space of $\omega$-semistable parabolic $G$-bundles on a complex smooth projective curve of genus $g$. We prove two results in this article:…

Let X be a Fano threefold, and let S be a K3 surface in X . Any moduli space M of simple vector bundles on S carries a holomorphic symplectic structure. Following an idea of Tyurin, we show that in some cases, those vector bundles which…

In this paper, we show that if the tangent bundle of a smooth projective variety is strictly nef, then it is isomorphic to a projective space; if a projective variety $X^n$ $(n>4)$ has strictly nef $\Lambda^2 TX$, then it is isomorphic to…

The main goal of this article is to construct some geometric invariants for the topology of the set $\mathcal{F}$ of flat connections on a principal $G$-bundle $P\,\longrightarrow\, M$. Although the characteristic classes of principal…
