In this paper, we present two kinds of total Chern forms $c(E,G)$ and $\mathcal{C}(E,G)$ as well as a total Segre form $s(E,G)$ of a holomorphic Finsler vector bundle $\pi:(E,G)\to M$ expressed by the Finsler metric $G$, which answers a…

In this paper, we present a unified flow approach to prescribed Chern scalar curvature problem on compact Hermitian manifolds with negative Gauduchon degree. When the conformal class of its Hermitian metric contains a balanced metric, we…

We investigate the behaviour of local perturbations of a wide class of geometric PDEs on holomorphic Hermitian vector bundles over a compact complex manifold. Our main goal is to study the existence of solutions near an initial solution…

In Hermitean quantum mechanics, extended current-carrying states are distinguished from localized ones by their non-zero Chern number. We generalize the notion of Chern number to non-Hermitean localization problems such as tiltedflux lines…

We determine the curvature equations of natural metrics on tangent bundles and radius r tangent sphere bundles S_rM of a Riemannian manifold M. A family of positive scalar curvature metrics on S_rM is found, for any M with bounded sectional…

We introduce notions of {\it upper chernrank} and {\it even cup length} of a finite connected CW-complex and prove that {\it upper chernrank} is a homotopy invariant. It turns out that determination of {\it upper chernrank} of a space $X$…

In this paper, we will provide an alternative definition for the singular Hermitian metric on a vector bundle. Moreover, we discuss the Griffiths and Nakano positivities under this circumstance and prove a generalised Griffiths' vanishing…

For the TZ metric on the moduli space $\mathscr{M}_{0,n}$ of $n$-pointed rational curves, we construct a K\"ahler potential in terms of the Fourier coefficients of the Klein's Hauptmodul. We define the space $\mathfrak{S}_{g,n}$ as…

If $ D \in X$ is a curve with multiple points in a surface, a parabolic bundle defined on $(X;D)$ away from the singularities can be extended in several ways to a parabolic bundle on a resolution of singularities. We investigate the…

We extend the well-known formula for the Euler class of a real oriented even-dimensional vector bundle in terms of the curvature of a metric connection to the case of a general linear connection provided a metric is present. We rewrite the…

In this paper we give a Chern-Weil-type construction of characteristic classes of fiber bundles, based on homotopy theory of C-infinity algebras. Our idea is to replace a family of closed manifolds to a family of C-infinity morphisms with…

Supersymmetric heterotic string models, built from a Calabi-Yau threefold $X$ endowed with a stable vector bundle $V$, usually lead to an anomaly mismatch between $c_2(V)$ and $c_2(X)$; this leads to the question whether the difference can…

We prove that the Euler form of a metric connection on real oriented vector bundle $E$ over a compact oriented manifold $M$ can be identified, as a current, with the expectation of the random current defined by the zero-locus of a certain…

We introduce a notion of Nakano and Demailly positivity for singular Hermitian metrics of holomorphic vector bundles. Our definitions support the usual H\"ormander and Nadel type vanishing theorems with estimates, at least on essentially…

Motivic integration and MacPherson's transformation are combined in this paper to construct a theory of "stringy" Chern classes for singular varieties. These classes enjoy strong birational invariance properties, and their definition…

Using the concept of a cohesive module defined by Block, we use the theory of superconnections in the sense of Quillen to construct natural superconnections on Hermitian cohesive modules. By the Chern-Weil construction, we obtain…

We classify globally generated vector bundles on $\mathbf{P}^1 \times \mathbf{P}^1 \times \mathbf{P}^1$ with small first Chern class, i.e. $c_1= (a_1, a_2, a_3)$, $a_i \le 2$. Our main method is to investigate the associated smooth curves…
