We study constructible invariants of the moduli space $\overline{\mathcal{M}}(\boldsymbol{x})$ of stable maps from genus zero curves to $\mathbb{P}^1$, relative to $0$ and $\infty$, with ramification profiles specified by…
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…
In this article, we prove the algebraic counterpart of the topological results $H^1(S^1, \mathbb{Z}) \cong \mathbb{Z}$ and $H^1(S^2, \mathbb{Z}) \cong \{0\}$. We also see that a non-trivial element of the algebraic cohomotopy groups of…
In this paper, we study holomorphic vector bundles on (diagonal) Hopf manifolds. In particular, we give a description of moduli spaces of stable bundles on generic (non-elliptic) Hopf surfaces. We also give a classification of stable rank-2…
This is a continuation of "Rational families of vector bundles on curves, I". Let C be a smooth projective curve of genus at least 2 and let M be the moduli space of rank 2, stable vector bundles on C, with fixed determinant of degree 1.…
For $k$ a perfect field of characteristic $p>0$ and $G/k$ a split reductive group with $p$ a non-torsion prime for $G,$ we compute the mod $p$ motivic cohomology of the geometric classifying space $BG_{(r)}$, where $G_{(r)}$ is the $r$th…
We like to build Abelian groups (or R-modules) which on the one hand are quite free, say $\aleph_{\omega + 1}$-free, and on the other hand, are complicated in suitable sense. We choose as our test problem having no non-trivial homomorphism…
We show that instanton bundles of rank $r\le 2n-1$, defined as the cohomology of certain linear monads, on an $n$-dimensional projective variety with cyclic Picard group are semistable in the sense of Mumford-Takemoto. Furthermore, we show…
Sommese has conjectured a classification of smooth projective varieties X containing, as an ample divisor, a P^d-bundle Y over a smooth variety Z. This conjecture is known if d>1, if dim(X)<5, or if Z admits a finite morphism to an Abelian…
We study the unitarity and modularity of ribbon tensor categories derived from simple affine Lie algebras, via their associated quantum groups. Based on numerical calculations, and assuming two conjectures, we provide the complete picture…
We study the moduli problem of pairs consisting of a rank 2 vector bundle and a nonzero section over a fixed smooth curve. The stability condition involves a parameter; as it varies, we show that the moduli space undergoes a sequence of…
We describe the action of the different Frobenius morphisms on the cohomology ring of the moduli stack of algebraic vector bundles of fixed rank and determinant on an algebraic curve over a finite field in characteristic p and analyse…
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…
We study varieties of complexes of projective modules with fixed ranks, and relate these varieties to the varieties of their homologies. We show that for an algebra of global dimension at most two, these two varieties are related by a pair…
Let $X$ be a smooth affine algebraic variety over the field of complex numbers which is contractible. Then every algebraic $G$-torsor on $X$ is algebraically trivial if $G$ is a semi-simple algebraic group. We also show that if $X$ is a…
We prove wall-crossing formulas for the motivic invariants of the moduli spaces of framed objects in the ind-constructible abelian categories. Developed techniques are applied in the case of the motivic Donaldson-Thomas invariants of…
Let X be a smooth projective curve of genus at least two over the complex numbers. A pair (E,\phi) over X consists of an algebraic vector bundle E over X and a holomorphic section \phi of E. There is a concept of stability for pairs which…
Let C be a smooth complex projective curve of genus at least 2 and let M be the moduli space of rank 2, stable vector bundles on C, with fixed determinant of degree 1. For any k>1, we find two irreducible components of the space of rational…
In this article, we give a construction of the (un-)stable motivic homotopy category of an algebraic stack in the spirit of Morel-Voevodsky. We prove that this new construction agrees with the stable motivic homotopy category defined by…
We use hypersurfaces containing unexpected linear spaces to construct interesting vector bundles on complete intersection surfaces in projective space. We discover examples of moduli spaces of rank 2 stable bundles on surfaces of Picard…
