We consider a compact twistor space P and assume that there is a surface S in P, which has degree one on twistor fibres and contains a twistor fibre F, e.g. P a LeBrun twistor space. Similar to Donaldson and Buchdahl we examine the…
Let $S$ be a certain affine algebraic surface over $\mathbb{Q}$ such that it admits a regular map to $\mathbb{A}^2/\mathbb{Q}$. We show that any non-trivial torsion line bundle in the relative Picard group $Pic^0\left(S/\mathbb{A}^2\right)$…
We explore the notion of representation of an affine extension of an abelian variety -- such an extension is a faithfully flat affine morphism of $\Bbbk$-group schemes $q:G\to A$, where $A$ is an abelian variety. We characterize the…
Fine shape, as defined by Melikhov, is an extension of the strong shape category of compacta (compact metrizable topological spaces) to all metrizable spaces, notable for being compatible with both \v{C}ech cohomology and Steenrod-Sitnikov…
We define quasi--locally presentable categories as big unions of coreflective subcategories which are locally presentable. Under appropriate hypotheses we prove a representability theorem for exact contravariant functors defined on a…
We use representation theory to construct spaces of matrices of constant rank. These spaces are parametrized by the natural representation of the general linear group or the symplectic group. We present variants of this idea, with more…
We introduce logarithmic Picard algebroids, a natural class of Lie algebroids adapted to a simple normal crossings divisor on a smooth projective variety. We show that such algebroids are classified by a subspace of the de Rham cohomology…
Let $E$ be a vector bundle on a smooth complex projective variety $X$. We study the family of sections $s_t\in H^0(E\otimes L_t)$ where $L_t\in Pic^0(X)$ is a family of topologically trivial line bundle and $L_0=\mathcal O_X,$ that is, we…
In order to understand the structure of the cohomologies involved in the study of projectively equivariant quantizations, we introduce a notion of affine representation of a Lie algebra.We show how it is related to linear representations…
Let X be a proper scheme over a field k which satisfies Serre's condition S2 and G a reductive group over k. We prove that the functor of principal G-bundles defined away from a non-fixed closed subset in X of codimension at least 3, is an…
In this note we study the problem of characterizing the complex affine space $\mathbb{A}^n$ via its automorphism group. We prove the following. Let $X$ be an irreducible quasi-projective $n$-dimensional variety such that $\mathrm{Aut}(X)$…
Complex Chern-Simons bundles are line bundles with connection, originating in the study of quantization of moduli spaces of flat connections with complex gauge groups. In this paper we introduce and study these bundles in the families…
In this paper we show that every rational cohomology class of type $(p,p)$ on a compact K\"ahler manifold can be representated as a differential $(p,p)$-form given by an explicit formula involving a \v{C}ech cocycle. First we represent…
Several important cases of vector bundles with extra structure (such as Higgs bundles and triples) may be regarded as examples of twisted representations of a finite quiver in the category of sheaves of modules on a variety/manifold/ringed…
Let $n \in \mathbb{N}_{\geq 2}$. We prove that for every $k \geq 4$ there exist uniform but non-homogeneous Steiner bundles on $\mathbb{P}^n$ of $k$-type with disconnected splitting type, and we further investigate almost-uniform Steiner…
Let $\frakX$ be a smooth $p$-adic formal scheme over $\calO_C$ with rigid generic fiber $X$. In this paper, we construct a new period sheaf $\calO\widehat \bC_{\pd}^+$ on $X_{\proet}$ and use it to establish an integral $p$-adic Simspon…
We classify rank two vector bundles on a Fano threefold of Picard rank one whose projectivizations are weak Fano. We also prove the existence of examples for each case of the classification result. Our classification includes detailed…
Several well known polytopal constuctions are examined from the functorial point of view. A naive analogy between the Billera-Sturmfels fiber polytope and the abelian kernel is disproved by an infinite explicit series of polytopes. A…
In this paper we provide, under some mild explicit assumptions, a geometric description of the category of representations of the centralizer of a regular unipotent element in a reductive algebraic group in terms of perverse sheaves on the…
In this note, we give a description of the modular functor associated to the Chern-Simons theory with a finite group from the complex-analytic point of view, i.e. as a vector bundle with a flat connection on the moduli space of punctured…
