We define a new symmetry for morphisms of vector bundles, called triality symmetry, and compute Chern class formulas for the degeneracy loci of such morphisms. In an appendix, we show how to canonically associate an octonion algebra bundle…

Finitely dominated chain complexes over a Laurent polynomial ring in one indeterminate are characterised by vanishing of their Novikov homology. We present an algebro-geometric approach to this result, based on extension of chain complexes…

The degree of a projective subscheme has an upper bound in term of the codimension and the reduction number. If a projective variety has an almost maximal degree, that is, the degree equals to the upper bound minus one, then its Betti table…

We show that on a generic curve, a bundle obtained by successive extensions is stable. We compute the dimension of the set of such extensions. We use degeneration methods specializing the curve to a chain of elliptic components

In this short note we discuss the exceptional locus for the Lang-Vojta's conjecture in the case of the complement of two completely reducible hyperplane sections in a cubic surface. Using elementary methods, we show that generically the…

A degree $d$ genus $g$ cover of the complex projective line by a smooth irreducible curve $C$ yields a vector bundle on the projective line by pushforward of the structure sheaf. We classify the bundles that arise this way when $d = 6$.…

We study global deformations of certain projective bundles over projective spaces. We show that any projective global deformation of a projective bundle over $\bP^1$ carries the structure of a projective bundle over some projective space.…

Let V be a convex vector bundle over a smooth projective manifold X, and let Y be the subset of X which is the zero locus of a regular section of V. This mostly expository paper discusses a conjecture which relates the virtual fundamental…

We give examples of stable rank 2 vector bundles on principally polarized abelian threefolds, and study their deformations. The starting point is the Serre construction, which gives a source of examples, and which we rephrase in terms of…

In this paper, we study how certain vector bundles on an elliptic surface are changed under logarithmic transformations.

Consider the scheme B_{2,L}^k of stable vector bundles of rank two and fixed determinant L which have at least k sections. Under suitable numerical conditions and for generic L, we show the existence of a component of the expected dimension…

We show how to make precise the vague idea that for compact metric spaces that are close together for Gromov-Hausdorff distance, suitable vector bundles on one metric space will have counterpart vector bundles on the other. Our approach…

Let X be a T-variety, where T is an algebraic torus. We describe a fully faithful functor from the category of T-equivariant vector bundles on X to a certain category of filtered vector bundles on a suitable quotient of X by T. We show that…

It is known that a vector bundle E on a smooth projective curve Y defined over an algebraically closed field is semistable if and only if there is a vector bundle F on Y such that the cohomologies of E\otimes F vanish. We extend this…

The Zygmund vector field maximal function conjecture is a long-standing open problem. This paper establishes a new boundedness criterion that significantly weakens the existing conditions in the literature. Specifically, the required decay…

Let $S$ be a ruled surface inside a smooth threefold $W$ and let $E$ be a vector bundle on a formal neighborhood of $S.$ We find minimal conditions under which the local moduli space of $E$ is finite dimensional and smooth. Moreover, we…

We discuss algebraic vector bundles on smooth k-schemes X contractible from the standpoint of A^1-homotopy theory; when k = C, the smooth manifolds X(C) are contractible as topological spaces. The integral algebraic K-theory and integral…

We characterize collections of orthogonal projections for which it is possible to reconstruct a vector from the magnitudes of the corresponding projections. As a result we are able to show that in an $M$-dimensional real vector space a…

Beauville and Laszlo give an interpretation of the affine Grassmannian for Gl_n over a field k as a moduli space of, loosely speaking, vector bundles over a projective curve together with a trivialization over the complement of a fixed…

In the holomorphic or algebraic setting we consider a vector bundle E on a smooth subvariety X in a smooth variety Y over a field of characteristic zero. Assuming E extends to the l-th neighborhood of X in Y, we study cohomological…
