Let $X^k_{m,n}=\Sigma^k (\mathbb R\mathbb P^m/\mathbb R\mathbb P^n)$. In this note we completely determine the values of $k,m,n$ for which the total Stiefel-Whitney class $w(\xi)=1$ for any vector bundle $\xi$ over $X^k_{m,n}$.

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety of dimension $n$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ with ${\rm char}(k)=p>0$ and $F:X\to X_1$ be the relative Frobenius morphism. For any vector bundle $W$ on $X$, we prove that instability of…

We construct vector bundles $R^r_\mu$ on a smooth projective curve $X$ having the property that for all sheaves $E$ of slope $\mu$ and rank $r$ on $X$ we have an equivalence: $E$ is a semistable vector bundle $\iff$ $Hom(R^r_\mu,E)=0$. As a…

We define and explore the notion of linear weightings for vector bundles, extending the recent work by Loizides and Meinrenken. We construct weighted normal bundles and deformation spaces in the category of vector bundles. We explain how a…

We calculate the heights of Stiefel--Whitney classes of the canonical vector bundle over the oriented Grassmannians $\widetilde G_{n,4}\cong SO(n)/(SO(4)\times SO(n-4))$ in the cases $n\in\{2^t-2,2^t-1,2^t,2^t+1\}$, $t\ge4$. Using some…

Let X be a smooth projective curve of genus g \geq 2 over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p > 0. Let M_X be the moduli space of semistable rank-2 vector bundles over X with trivial determinant. The relative Frobenius map…

Following ideas of Nori, Biswas, ..., we show that given an integer r>0, a noetherian scheme X, and an effective Cartier divisor D on it, the parabolic vector bundles on (X,D) with weights multiples of 1/r (in the sense of…

Let X_R be a geometrically irreducible smooth projective curve, defined over R, such that X_R does not have any real points. Let X= X_R\times_R C be the complex curve. We show that there is a universal real algebraic line bundle over X_R x…

Let $X$ be any rational surface. We construct a tilting bundle $T$ on $X$. Moreover, we can choose $T$ in such way that its endomorphism algebra is quasi-hereditary. In particular, the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on $X$ is…

In this article we study modules over wild canonical algebras which correspond to extension bundles [9] over weighted projective lines. We prove that all modules attached to extension bundles can be established by matrices with coefficients…

We extend the concept of Segre's Invariant to vector bundles on a surface $X$. For $X=\mathbb{P}^2$ we determine what numbers can appear as the Segre Invariant of a rank $2$ vector bundle with given Chern's classes. The irreducibility of…

Let $C$ be an irreducible smooth complex projective curve, and let $E$ be an algebraic vector bundle of rank $r$ on $C$. Associated to $E$, there are vector bundles ${\mathcal F}_n(E)$ of rank $nr$ on $S^n(C)$, where $S^n(C)$ is $ $n$-th…

We generalize Horrocks' criterion for the splitting of vector bundles on projective space. We establish an analogous splitting criterion for vector bundles on a class of smooth complex projective varieties of dimension at least four, over…

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…

We compute the cohomology spaces for the tautological bundle tensor the determinant bundle on the punctual Hilbert scheme H of subschemes of length n of a smooth projective surface X. We show that for L and A invertible vector bundles on X,…
