The existence problem for vector bundles on a smooth compact complex surface consists in determining which topological complex vector bundles admit holomorphic structures. For projective surfaces, Schwarzenberger proved that a topological…

The simplest example of an ind-Grassmannian is the infinite projective space $\mathbf P^\infty$. The Barth-Van de Ven-Tyurin (BVT) Theorem, proved more than 30 years ago \cite{BV}, \cite{T}, \cite{Sa} (see also a recent proof by A.…

We prove formulas for the cohomology and the extension groups of tautological bundles on punctual Quot schemes over complex smooth projective curves. As a corollary, we show that the tautological bundle determines the isomorphism class of…

We study locally free sheaves of rank two on the projective line over the integers, especially indecomposable ones. Subsequently we apply various concepts of Arakelov geometry to these sheaves. We compute for example the arithmetic Chern…

Let $V$ be an algebraic variety over $\mathbb R$. The purpose of this paper is to compare its algebraic Witt group $W(V)$ with a new topological invariant $WR(V_{\mathbb C})$, based on symmetric forms on Real vector bundles (in the sense of…

We discuss two kinds of functorial prolongations of the functional bundle of all smooth maps between the fibers over the same base point of two fibered manifolds over the same base. We study the prolongation of vector fields in both cases…

The purpose of this paper is to explore the geometry and establish the slope stability of tautological vector bundles on Hilbert schemes of points on smooth surfaces. By establishing stability in general we complete a series of results of…

We give the classification of globally generated vector bundles of rank $2$ on a smooth quadric surface with $c_1\le (2,2)$ in terms of the indices of the bundles, and extend the result to arbitrary higher rank case. We also investigate…

Tractors and Twistors bundles both provide natural conformally covariant calculi on $4D$-Riemannian manifolds. They have different origins but are closely related, and usually constructed bottom-up through prolongation of defining…

Let Gr(2, E) be the Grassmann bundle of two-planes associated to a general bundle E over a curve X. We prove that an embedding of Gr(2, E) by a certain twist of the relative Pl\"ucker map is not secant defective. This yields a new and more…

This work revolves around the question of whether a given resonance variety is associated with a vector bundle. We show the existence of a family of natural morphisms on a stratification of the resonance variety to a suitable family of a…

We consider a uniform $r$-bundle $E$ on a complex rational homogeneous space $X$ %over complex number field $\mathbb{C}$ and show that if $E$ is poly-uniform with respect to all the special families of lines and the rank $r$ is less than or…

We define and investigate extension groups in the context of Arakelov geometry. The 'arithmetic extension groups' we introduce are extensions by groups of analytic types of the usual extension groups attached to $\O_X$-modules over an…

We consider a proper flat fibration with real base and complex fibers. First we construct odd characteristic classes for such fibrations by a method that generalizes constructions of Bismut-Lott. Then we consider the direct image of a…

We study geometrical properties of an Ulrich vector bundle $E$ of rank $r$ on a smooth $n$-dimensional variety $X \subseteq \mathbb P^N$. We characterize ampleness of $E$ and of $\det E$ in terms of the restriction to lines contained in…

A natural explicit condition is given ensuring that an action of the multiplicative monoid of non-negative reals on a manifold F comes from homotheties of a vector bundle structure on F, or, equivalently, from an Euler vector field. This is…

This text presents a scheme-theoretic enhancement of the theory of smooth profinite groups and cyclotomic pairs, introduced in the paper `Smooth profinite groups, I'. To do so, our main technical tools are Hochschild cohomology of affine…

For $k \in \mathbb{Z}_{>0}$, let $\mathcal{H}^{(k)}_{g,n}$ denote the vector bundle over $\mathfrak{M}_{g,n}$ whose every fiber consists of meromorphic $k$-differentials with poles of order at most $k-1$ on a fixed Riemman surface of genus…

Twisted ind-Grassmannians are ind-varieties $\GG$ obtained as direct limits of Grassmannians $G(r_m,V^{r_m})$, for $m\in\ZZ_{>0}$, under embeddings $\phi_m:G(r_m,V^{r_m})\to G(r_{m+1}, V^{r_{m+1}})$ of degree greater than one. It has been…

In his book SGA2, A. Grothendieck proved Lefschetz theorems, in particular for the Picard group. To some extent he was able to deal with vector bundles instead of line bundles. Here we use his methods in order to study vector bundles on…
