We study anti-holomorphic involutions of the moduli space of principal $G$-Higgs bundles over a compact Riemann surface $X$, where $G$ is a complex semisimple Lie group. These involutions are defined by fixing anti-holomorphic involutions…
Let $X$ be a complex projective manifold, $L$ an ample line bundle on $X$, and assume that we have a $\mathbb{C}^*$ action on $(X,L)$. We classify such triples $(X,L,\mathbb{C}^*)$ for which the closure of a general orbit of the…
Higher bundles are homotopy coherent generalisations of classical fibre bundles. They appear in numerous contexts in geometry, topology and physics. In particular, higher principal bundles provide the geometric framework for higher-group…
Let M be a geometrically irreducible smooth projective variety, defined over a finite field k, such that M admits a k-rational point x_0. Let \varpi(M,x_0) denote the corresponding fundamental group--scheme introduced by Nori. Let E_G be a…
We observe that any regular Lie groupoid G over an manifold M fits into an extension $K \to G \to E$ of a foliation groupoid E by a bundle of connected Lie groups K. If $\FF$ is the foliation on M given by the orbits of E and T is a…
Let $G$ be a unimodular Lie group, $X$ a compact manifold with boundary, and $M$ the total space of a principal bundle $G\to M\to X$ so that $M$ is also a strongly pseudoconvex complex manifold. In this work, we show that if $G$ acts by…
An action of a Lie algebra $\frak g$ on a manifold $M$ is just a Lie algebra homomorphism $\zeta:\frak g\to \frak X(M)$. We define orbits for such an action. In general the space of orbits $M/\frak g$ is not a manifold and even has a bad…
We study Hamiltonian field theories on the multisymplectic bundle of a principal G-bundle with Hamiltonian densities invariant under a subgroup $H\subset G$. Using the covariant bracket formulation, we reduce the polysymplectic space and…
We describe the cohomology groups of a homogeneous vector bundle $E$ on any Hermitian symmetric variety $X=G/P$ of ADE type as the cohomology of a complex explicitly described. The main tool is the equivalence between the category of…
We generalize a construction of Hitchin to prove that, given any compact K\"ahler manifold $M$ with positive holomorphic sectional curvature and any holomorphic vector bundle $E$ over $M$, the projectivized vector bundle ${\mathbb P}(E)$…
Let G be a Lie supergroup and H a closed subsupergroup. We study the unimodularity of the homogeneous supermanifold G/H, i.e. the existence of G-invariant sections of its Berezinian line bundle. To that end, we express this line bundle as a…
For a principal bundle $P\to M$ equipped with a connection ${\bar A}$, we study an infinite dimensional bundle ${\mathcal P}^{\rm dec}_{\bar A}P$ over the space of paths on $M$, with the points of ${\mathcal P}^{\rm dec}_{\bar A}P$ being…
In this paper we introduce the Integration Problem for principal connections. Just as a principal connection on a principal bundle $\phi:Q\rightarrow M$ may be used to split $TQ$ into horizontal and vertical subbundles, a discrete…
Suppose that a compact and connected Lie group $G$ acts on a complex Hodge manifold $M$ in a holomorphic and Hamiltonian manner, and that the action linearizes to a positive holomorphic line bundle $A$ on $M$. Then there is an induced…
This paper studies linear generalised complex structures over vector bundles, as a generalised geometry version of holomorphic vector bundles. In an adapted linear splitting, a linear generalised complex structure on a vector bundle $E\to…
We show a correspondence between the set of all G-invariant projectively flat connections on a homogeneous apace $M=G/K$, and the one of all {G}^~-invariant flat connections on a homogeneous space {M}^~={G}^~/K, where {G}^~ is a central…
From a geometrical point of view it is, so far, not sufficiently well understood what should be a "noncommutative principal bundle". Still, there is a well-developed abstract algebraic approach using the theory of Hopf algebras. An…
For a compact Lie group acting on a smooth manifold, we define the differential cohomology of a certain quotient stack involving principal bundles with connection. This produces differential equivariant cohomology groups that map to the…
Using tools from the theory of Lie groupoids, we study the category of logarithmic flat connections on principal $G$-bundles, where $G$ is a complex reductive structure group. Flat connections on the affine line with a logarithmic…
We consider principal fibre bundles with a given connection and construct almost complex structures on the total space if the adjoint bundle is isomorphic to the tangent bundle of the base. We derive the integrability condition. If the…
