We consider the moduli space $\mathscr{N}$ of stable vector bundles of degree $0$ over a compact Riemann surface and the affine bundle $\mathscr{A}\to\mathscr{N}$ of flat connections. Following the similarity between the Teichm\"{u}ller…
J. Pevtsova and the author constructed a ``universal $p$-nilpotent operator" for an infinitesimal group scheme $G$ over a field $k$ of characteristic $p > 0$ which led to coherent sheaves on the scheme of 1-parameter subgroups of $G$…
Let $(M,g)$ be a smooth Riemannian manifold, $K$ a compact Lie group and $p:P\to M$ a principal $K$-bundle over $M$ endowed with a connection $A$. Fixing a bi invariant inner product on Lie algebra $\mathfrak{k}$ of $K$, the connection $A$…
We construct a pair (E ,F), where E is a holomorphic vector bundle over a compact Riemann surface and F a holomorphic subbundle of E, such that both F and E/F admit holomorphic connections, but E does not.
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…
Let $E\to B$ be a smooth vector bundle of rank $n$, and let $P \in I^p(GL(n,\mathbb{R}))$ be a $GL(n,\mathbb{R})$-invariant polynomial of degree $p$ compatible with a universal integral characteristic class $ u \in…
In this paper, we study a class of Finsler metrics composed by a Riemann metric $\alpha=\sqrt{a_{ij}(x)y^i y^j}$ and a $1$-form $\beta=b_i(x)y^i$ called general ($\alpha$, $\beta$)-metrics. We classify those projectively flat when $\alpha$…
We describe an algorithm to organize Feynman integrals in terms of their infrared properties. Our approach builds upon the theory of Landau singularities, which we use to classify all configurations of loop momenta that can give rise to…
We show that there exist flat surface bundles with closed leaves having non-trivial normal bundles. This leads us to compute the Abelianisation of surface diffeomorphism groups with marked points. We also extend a formula of Tsuboi that…
We reformulate the Landau analysis of Feynman integrals with the aim of advancing the state of the art in modern particle-physics computations. We contribute new algorithms for computing Landau singularities, using tools from polyhedral…
Using the multivariate residue calculus of Leray, we give a precise definition of the notion of a cut Feynman integral in dimensional regularization, as a residue evaluated on the variety where some of the propagators are put on shell.…
Let $f: X\to Y$ be a proper surjective morphism of varieties defined over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. We prove that if $f$ has geometrically connected fibers then the induced homomorphism of $F$-divided…
The present paper is the first in a series of papers, in which we shall construct modular functors and Topological Quantum Field Theories from the conformal field theory developed in [TUY]. The basic idea is that the covariant constant…
We perform a comprehensive study of a certain class of discrete symmetries of families of Feynman integrals, defined as affine changes of variables that map different sectors of the family into each other. We show that these transformations…

We prove that any holomorphic vector bundle admitting a holomorphic connection, over a compact K\"ahler Calabi-Yau manifold, also admits a flat holomorphic connection. This addresses a particular case of a question asked by Atiyah and…
